Project LEaH: Learning to Eat at Home

Study Description
Brief Summary:
The investigators are trying to determine if delivery a feeding intervention program using videoconferencing technology is feasible.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Autism Spectrum Disorder Feeding Behavior Behavioral: Parent coaching Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
The investigators hope to recruit 10 participants who have a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder and food selectivity. A Multidisciplinary feeding assessment will be conducted and factors which contribute to the participant's feeding challenges will be identified. Treatment goals will be identified using the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). Intervention geared to address the goals identified by parents will be delivered by the clinician(s) via videoconferencing. Participants will participate in up to 12 weekly 1hr visits over the study period.

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Actual Enrollment : 15 participants
Allocation: N/A
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Intervention Model Description: Participants will be recruited to participate in a multidisciplinary feeding assessment, after which an intervention plan will be developed to address the participants feeding challenges.
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Delivering Specialty Care Access Through Use of an Innovative Telehealth-home Based Intervention Feeding Program (Telefeeding) to Address Food Selectivity in Autism Spectrum Disorder
Actual Study Start Date : August 7, 2018
Actual Primary Completion Date : April 23, 2020
Actual Study Completion Date : July 23, 2020
Arms and Interventions
Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Feeding Challenges
Parents will be coached to implement strategies to address factors contributing to feeding challenges based on a multidisciplinary assessment using the medico-oral-behaviour-sensory-environment (MOBSE) approach.
Behavioral: Parent coaching
Parents will be coached to implement behavioural strategies to address factors which are contributing to difficult mealtime behaviours and feeding challenges.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Parent Treatment Adherence Scale [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
    Parent Treatment Adherence scale will be used to rate parent engagement and understanding of in session materials. The scale will be completed by the therapists at the end of each intervention session to rate parent engagement and understanding of instructions and assignment on a three point likert scale.

  2. Parent Satisfaction Scale [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
    A questionnaire was developed for the study to obtain parent feedback at week 12 on the quality of the block of intervention. Questions rated the length of the sessions, number of sessions, the usefulness of teaching tools (for e.g. homework), and participants confidence in handling future feeding challenges. Scores range from 0(strongly disagree) to 4 (strongly agree).

  3. Treatment Fidelity Scale [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
    A treatment fidelity checklist was developed for this study. Treatment fidelity will be measured using a questionnaire to rate if the intervention session goals were met during the session. This will be done using a 3 point likert scale. After completion of each session the therapists will rate themselves as: 0= Goal was not achieved; 1- Goal was partially achieved; 2= Goal was fully achieved for each treatment goal for that session.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in number of foods eaten from baseline to week 12 (or end of intervention whichever comes first) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
    Number of foods eaten will be captured by a 1 day food diary at baseline and week 12

  2. Change from baseline in performance scores on the COPM scale at 12 weeks [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]
    Change in participants performance on a single tasks from baseline to 12 weeks (or end of intervention whichever comes first)
