远程保健是解决农村地区自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)儿童获得专门服务有限的潜在解决方案。我们对3-8岁患有自闭症和农村社区破坏性行为的儿童进行了父母培训的可行性试验。来自四个远程医疗网站的14名儿童(平均年龄5.8+/-1.7岁)参加了调查。13个家庭(92.9%)完成治疗，91.6%的核心会议参加。治疗师对手册的忠诚度达到98%，在第24周收集了93%的预期结果衡量标准。14名参与者中有11名(78.6%)被评为很大/非常好。通过远程保健进行的父母培训对父母来说是可以接受的，治疗师可以可靠地提供治疗。初步疗效研究结果表明，进一步研究是合理的。
Telehealth is a potential solution to limited access to specialized services for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in rural areas. We conducted a feasibility trial of parent training with children ages 3-8 with ASD and disruptive behavior from rural communities. Fourteen children (mean age 5.8 +/- 1.7) from four telehealth sites enrolled. Thirteen families (92.9%) completed treatment, with 91.6% of core sessions attended. Therapists attained 98% fidelity to the manual and 93% of expected outcome measures were collected at week 24. Eleven of 14 (78.6%) participants were rated as much/very much improved. Parent training via telehealth was acceptable to parents and treatment could be delivered reliably by therapists. Preliminary efficacy findings suggests further study is justified.
