Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Autism is the most prevalent disorder as it affects attention, awareness, cognitive development, social development, and emotional aspects too. It is one of the comprehensive developmental disorders in the early stage, which is characterized by weak social learning and communication, limited activities, interests, learning, insufficient imaginative and stereotypical thinking or non-functional thinking of movements and verbalities. A lack of sensory perception leads to a leading autistic child\'s sensitivity to sensory stimuli or weak sensitivity and the child is not aware of the surrounding environment.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The current study will be randomized control trial; data will be collected from Lahore Garrison Institute of Special Education. This study will be conducted with 32 participants equally divided into two groups. Inclusion criteria will be Children who diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (mild \& moderate) according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, (DSM-5), Have an IQ 70 according to Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales and be able to understand and follow instructions, Children whose age between 4 to 12 and All participants had to be able to sit and walk without support according to GMFCS. Exclusion criteria for the study include Children who will associate with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder signs, Upper limb musculoskeletal injuries, Visual or auditory impairments, Children who had received sensory integration therapy for \> 3 months within the past 6 months and Children with speech delay, hearing impairment, or intellectual disability. SPM training will be given each child individually in the first group. In the second group techniques will be apply in a group therapy. The SPM training programme will apply for 10 months. Outcomes, including the Test of Movement Battery for Children, Quality of life scale will be use. Data analysis will be performed using SPSS version 23.00

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

It will be randomized control trial in which non probability convenient sampling will be used. Two groups of 4-12 age will be formed in which participants will be randomly divided. Group A: individually SPM training will be given, Group B: Grouped SPM training given
Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

SINGLE

Participants
Participants will get separate treatment protocols and possible efforts will be put to mask the both group about the treatment.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Individual ASD Children

Activities were applied individually for the IND group. Individual training was applied according to the treatment protocol, activities done by step by step from simple to complex. Each activities for individuals training will be applied for 2 hours, three sessions per week, for ten successive months

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Sensory Perceptual Motor Training on Individual

Intervention Type OTHER

1. Sensory Input

* Wheelbarrow walks, swimming, and drying off.
2. Proprioceptive

* Climbing, pushing, pulling, and carrying heavy objects.
3. Vestibular

* Swinging, trampolining, and playground games.
4. Tactile

* Stereognosis training, textured paths, and messy play (mud, sand).
5. Motor Planning

* Statue spinning, crawling through/under objects, and quick movements.
6. Balance and Posture

* Various balance positions (e.g., hands and knees).
7. Ocular Control

* Catching and tossing balls.
8. Bilateral Coordination

* Activities using both sides of the body (e.g., stick ball).
9. Visual-Spatial

10. Fine Motor Skills

* Puzzles, bead stringing, and drawing.
11. Gross Motor

* Standing, walking, running, and throwing games.
