Trial Outcomes & Findings for Process-instructed Self Neuro-Modulation (PRISM) for Attention Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder - Adults (NCT NCT04640766)

NCT ID: NCT04640766

Last Updated: 2023-12-12

Results Overview

ADHD symptoms will also be measured using the Adult ADHD Investigator Symptom Rating Scale (AISRS). Items are scored as follows: 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate), 3 (severe). The maximum total score for the scale is 54 points, with 27 points for each subscale. The total score is the sum of the inattentive and hyperactive-impulsive subscales. The higher the score, the more severe the symptoms.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline

The DSM-5 ASRS Expanded consists of 18 questions. Each question is scored in the range 0-4, for a total range of score of 0-72. The higher the score, the more difficulty the participant is experiencing handling ADHD.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline

Severity of executive function will be assessed via the Behavioral Rating Inventory of Executive Function- Adult version (BRIEF-A) self-report. All 75 items are rated in terms of frequency on a 3-point scale: 0 (never), 1 (sometimes), 2 (often). The total range of score is 0-150; higher scores indicate poor executive function.
