Using Apollo Neuro in Autistic Children With Self-Injurious Behavior
Feasibility and Usability of the Apollo Neuro, a Wearable Sensory Device, in Autistic Children With Self-Injurious Behavior
This study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the Apollo Neuro, a wearable vibrotactile sensory device, in autistic children who engage in self-injurious behavior (SIB).
Participants will wear the device for at least 3 hours per day over a 30-35 day period with caregiver support. Outcomes will include adherence to device use, caregiver-reported feasibility and acceptability, and descriptive characterization of caregiver-reported self- injurious and repetitive behaviors during the study period. This preliminary, single-group study is not designed to evaluate efficacy and will inform the design of future controlled trials.

Intervento / Trattamento |
|---|---|
|
Sperimentale: Apollo Neuro device
Wearing of activated Apollo Neuro device for at least three hours/day for 30 of 35 consecutive days by Autistic children with SIB and sensory over and/or under responsivity.
|
Child participants will wear the activated device for a minimum of three hours per day on at least 30 of 35 consecutive days, consistent with the study protocol.
The device is worn externally (e.g., wrist, ankle, or waist) and delivers low intensity vibrations through intact skin.

Misure di risultato primarie
Misura del risultato |
Misura Descrizione |
Lasso di tempo |
|---|---|---|
|
Adherence to wearing the Apollo Neuro Wearable
Lasso di tempo: 30-35 days
|
Caregiver-reported acceptability of the intervention, as measured by the Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM), a validated 4-item instrument assessing the perceived agreeableness, satisfaction, and usability of the intervention.
Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (Completely disagree) to 5 (Completely agree).
Responses will be summarized descriptively using mean scores and response distributions.

Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM)
Lasso di tempo: 30-35 days
|
Caregiver-reported acceptability of the intervention, as measured by the Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM), a validated 4-item instrument assessing the perceived agreeableness, satisfaction, and usability of the intervention.
Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (Completely disagree) to 5 (Completely agree).
Responses will be summarized descriptively using mean scores and response distributions.
|
30-35 days
|
|
The Repetitive Behavior Scale-Revised (RBS-R)
Lasso di tempo: 30-35 days
|
Caregiver-reported behaviors, as measured by the Repetitive Behavior Scale-Revised (RBS-R), a validated 43-item questionnaire assessing the presence and severity of restricted and repetitive behaviors in individuals with autism spectrum disorder, including self-injurious behavior.
The measure is completed by caregivers at baseline and post-intervention using a 4-point Likert scale.
Scores will be summarized descriptively to characterize patterns over the study period.
|
30-35 days
|
|
Changes in caregiver-reported SIB intensity
Lasso di tempo: 30-35 days
|
Daily caregiver-reported ratings of peak self-injurious behavior intensity, measured using a visual analog scale (VAS) recorded on a study-designed data collection form.
Caregivers will provide ratings each day throughout the intervention period.
Data will be summarized descriptively to characterize variability and patterns over time.
|
30-35 days
|
|
Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM)
Lasso di tempo: 30-35 days
|
Caregiver-reported feasibility of the intervention, as measured by the Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM), a validated 4-item instrument assessing the extent to which the intervention can be successfully implemented within the home setting.
Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1(Completely disagree) to 5 (Completely agree).
Responses will be summarized descriptively using mean scores and response distributions.
|
30-35 days
|
|
Change in intensity of self-injurious behavior
Lasso di tempo: 30-35 days
|
Changes in the intensity of self-injurious behavior associated with the use of the Apollo Neuro wearable device will be measured by caregiver-reported tracking daily ratings of peak self-injurious behavior intensity on a study designed form tracking the participant adherence.
