    This article discusses sensory modulation approaches and assessment for adolescents and adults, an area I feel is important since I mainly think of sensory modulation with children.

Impairments in Sensory Modulation in Children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder - 0 views

  •  
    The Short Sensory Profile was used to measure a caregiver report of sensory reactivity in a group of children with an autistic spectrum disorder (ASD). Fifty-six of 78 (72%) families invited to participate returned the questionnaires and the data were complete for 44 children. These 44 children represented a stratified sample out of a total of 443 children, identified through nine different data sets maintained for children affected by ASD from a total geographical region in South East Scotland. Clinical information was collected retrospectively from contemporary pediatric community child health medical notes and also cross-sectionally from caregivers. Sensory reactivity was outside normal limits in over 70% of the children, with the highest percentage of sensitivities occurring in the auditory filtering and the underresponsiveness and seeking sensation domains. Logistic regression analysis showed no significant relationship between sensory reactivity and the child's age at presentation with autism or parental report of regression. The severity of autism was measured by the Gilliam Autism Rating Scale and related to the Short Sensory Profile (r = 0.39, p = 0.001). These findings suggest that all children affected by ASD, regardless of clinical features or age, may potentially be affected by sensory reactivities and may benefit from appropriate occupational therapy assessment and management. ASDs are relatively common among neurodevelopmental conditions and confer lifelong disabilities. As the majority of affected children will have sensory modulation difficulties, this has significant implications for pediatric occupational therapy services.

    In this article researches assessed the effectiveness of sensory-enhanced Hatha Yoga on symptoms of combat stress for deployed military personnel. In this study the researchers compared the anxiety and sensory processing abilities of the deployed military personnel with stateside civilians using the State-Trial Anxiety Inventory scales and the Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile Quadrants. There was a total of 70 participants, 35 received 3 wks of treatment and 35 did not. The sensory-enhanced hatha yoga was shown to be effective in reducing state and trait anxiety. Researchers also found positive correlations with all test measures excepts sensory seeking, which was negatively correlated with all measures except low registration. These results support the use of sensory enhanced hatha yoga as a proactive approach for stress management for deployed military personnel.

  •  
    This article discusses the need for more research behind the sensory integration approach. The article discusses Jean Ayres ideas of providing the child with a just right approach along with an adaptive response when completing sensory integration during therapy. The article discusses the need the parents feel for sensory processing input. This article was interesting to read since I am currently completing lots of sensory integration therapy with my clients.

    Performance Challenges for Children and Adolescents With Difficulty Processing and Integrating Sensory Information: A Systematic Review. American Journal of Occupational Therapy, May/June 2010, Vol. 64, 430-442. doi:10.5014/ajot.2010.09073 This article reviews current literature that focuses on children who have sensory processing and integration difficulties. This research focuses on how these sensory processing and integration difficulties affect the child's functional performance in their daily occupations. After the review of the literature, it is evident that children with these difficulties do experience deficits in their functional performance during daily occupations.

    Jane Case-Smith, Teresa Bryan; The Effects of Occupational Therapy With Sensory Integration Emphasis on Preschool-Age Children With Autism. Am J Occup Ther 1999;53(5):489-497. doi: 10.5014/ajot.53.5.489. This research article looked at the effects of an intervention that emphasized sensory integration. They hoped that it would increase engagement. When pretest and posttests were compared 4/5 children demonstrated reduced frequency of nonengaged behavior and 3/5 children had increased goal-directed play. They concluded that sensory integration approaches can support behavioral changes in children with autism spectrum disorder.

    This article discusses the benefits of Sensory Diets and how to implement them into the everyday routine. As school-based OT's are not necessarily able to treat sensory issues directly, it is important that strategies are implemented and easily accessed by student's, when necessary and following proper instruction, within the school environment.
