Αn Information System for Symptom Diagnosis and Improvement of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD360) (ADHD360)

May 3, 2023 updated by: Panos Bamidis, Aristotle University Of Thessaloniki
ADHD360 will be an innovative integrated platform for early ADHD diagnosis and intervention against its symptoms. In the core of the platform design there will be a serious game along with a mobile application to monitor behavior and to evaluate the intervention.

Detailed Description

The ADHD360 project develop an integrated platform having as core elements a serious game along with a mobile application for monitoring of ADHD behaviors in a SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Timely) way. The design of the serious game is based on both Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (version V(American Psychiatric Association, 2013)) along with neuropsychological tools, easily transferred to game, on a specific ADHD behavior. The primary objective of the project is to explore whether the game analytics along with the monitoring data could discriminate the ADHD from non-ADHD users. The secondary objective is to use the platform as an intervention. To this scope, a two-phase pilot study will be performed recruiting at least twenty (20) participants (10 ADHD; 10 non-ADHD) with ages ranging from 7 to 16 years. In the first stage, participants will undergo a neuropsychological evaluation as well as interact with the serious game two times (30-45 minutes/each time). After all participants have completed the first part of the pilot tests, a preliminary analysis of the data will be carried out using modern Machine Learning Methods in order to explore the discriminating capacity of the game. In the second stage, participants will interact with the platform for ten (10) weeks in total (2-3 times/30-45 minutes each). At the end of the second stage, the participants will undergo a neuropsychological evaluation following the procedures of the first one. The partners involved in the implementation of the project are the Intelligent Systems Lab (School of Computer Science, AUTH), the MEDPHYS Laboratory (School of Medicine, AUTH) and the Second Method (TSM) company. The partners cover the expertise required in data analysis, machine learning, medical record keeping, software development and game design (gamification). ADHD360 is co-financed by the European Union and Greek national funds through the Operational Program Competitiveness, Entrepreneurship and Innovation, under the call RESEARCH - CREATE - INNOVATE [Τ1ΕΔΚ-01680].

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: ADHD
In the first part of the clinical trials, ADHD cohorts are going to undergo a neuropsychological assessement. Moreover, they will interact with the serious game twice (30-45 minutes/each time). In the second part, participants will interact with game two or three times per week (30-45 minutes/each time). Finally, a neuropsychological assessment will be administered following the procedures of the first one.
Other: ADHD360 platform: An intervention intergrating a serious game along with a mobile application for daily behavioral monitoring.
Clinical trials will include two parts. The first part includes three visits. In the first visit, children and their parents will come to the Laboratory of Medical Physics to be informed regarding the experimental procedures, sign the consent form and familiarize with the scientific staff involved in the project as well as the lab enviroment. In the second visit, children will undergo an neuropsychological assessment delivered by an experienced pscychologist. Afterwards, they will interact with the ADHD360 platfrom for 30-45 minutes. In the third visit, participants will interact with the ADHD360 platfrom for 30-45 minutes. In the second part, participants will use the ADHD360 platfrom two or three times per week for about 30-45 minutes. At the end of the second part, participants will undergo a neuropsychological evalutation following the same procedures as the first one.
