Using the Digital EEG Spectral Analysis in Assessing Neuroelectrical Processing Abnormalities in Autism

Withdrawn before enrolling

Conditions studied: Autistic Disorder, Autism, Early Infantile, Autism, Infantile, Asperger Syndrome

In brief

Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder will have abnormal DESA® results. Our objective is to use neuroelectrical measures to determine the degree of processing abnormalities in individuals with Autism. The study will survey processing patterns and will locate and evaluate the degree(s) of abnormalities for further study. The abnormal results of comprehensive neuroelectrical evaluations of individuals with Autism when compared to the normative database will provide objective, verifiable, neurophysiological information with which to form novel approaches to the disorder.
