A Study on Evaluation of Before and After Wearing the Deep Touch Pressure Therapy Compression Garment by Children with Autism

Abstract Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by severe difficulties in communication and social interaction as well as a restricted pattern of repetitive and stereotyped behaviour.

Due to its extensive range of symptoms, including issues with communication and social interaction, repetitive behaviours, and sensory processing disorder, it is known as autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Children with ASD experience anxiety which leads to outbursts and eventual meltdowns. Autism interventions typically involve Deep Touch Pressure (DTP) Therapy. Occupational therapists frequently apply deep pressure to patients with autism spectrum disorders. For children with autism, occupational therapists employ a variety of devices to provide deep contact pressure, including weighted vests, compression vests, pneumatic pressure garments, and weighted blankets etc. Research examining deep pressure is scarce. Additionally, a number of studies have shown the efficacy of DTP. A therapy compression garment for autistic children with sensory defensiveness was developed using a user-centric design paradigm. The aim of this study was to evaluate the before and after wearing the deep touch pressure therapy compression garment worn by the six wearer children with Autism.
