Creation of ASDRA (Autism Spectrum Disorder Risk Alert)

描述(由申请人提供)：研究表明，患有自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)的儿童可以在生命的头三年由经验丰富的临床医生发现。越来越多的研究表明，如果认识到这些儿童并为他们提供适当的强化治疗，他们的长期结果就会得到改善。Genetic Lens已与ASD早期发现领域的一批领先研究人员联手创建了自闭症谱系障碍风险警报(ASDRA)，这是一个可通过网络访问的多媒体工具，将把最新的研究成果与ASD在幼儿中的体征和常见表现特征的广泛视频数据库整合在一起，并提供一个经充分认可的互动培训课程。ASDRA将帮助儿科医生了解及早识别和转介的指导原则，以便及时启动适当的服务，以改善患有自闭症儿童的预后。ASDRA的独特之处在于，它能够在短时间内提供对数百个小时的视频剪辑的即时和集中访问，这些视频剪辑描绘了带有自闭症风险指标或危险信号的婴儿和幼儿，以及正在发育正常或有其他发育障碍的儿童的对比视频。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Studies have shown that children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) can be detected in the first three years of life by experienced clinicians. A growing body of research indicates that if these children are recognized and provided with appropriate and intensive therapies, their long-term outcomes are improved. Genetic Lens has joined forces with a team of leading researchers in the early detection of ASD to create Autism Spectrum Disorders Risk Alert (ASDRA), a web-accessible, multi-media tool that will integrate the latest research findings with an extensive video database of the signs and common presenting features of ASD in young children, and an interactive, fully accredited training course. ASDRA will help pediatric medical practitioners understand the guiding principles of early recognition and referral for the timely initiation of appropriate services to improve the outcome of children with ASD. What makes ASDRA so unique is its ability to provide immediate and focused access to hundreds of hours of video clips that portray infants and toddlers with the risk indicators or red flags of ASD, along with comparison video of children who are developing typically or have other developmental disorders, all within the short timeframe of a patient appointment.
