A New App Is Developed To Fight Back Autism

As autism is not only a neurological but also a genetic disease unlike other brain disorders so, it is considered as an incurable disease. We have no cure for ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorders) still now, but we have a hope to get this as soon as possible. Several researches and studies are going on for this purpose and we have some therapies to improve the autistic symptoms to a certain level.

 

Therapies To Fight Back Autism:

Having this goal, we already have developed different therapies. The therapies to treat autism can be classified into,

1. 
   Behavioral Therapies
   
2. 
   Medication
   
3. 
   Community Sport & Parent Training
   
4. 
   HBOT
   

 

The Behavioral Therapies are also classified in

• 
  Verbal Behavioral Interventions
  
• 
  Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT)
  
• 
  Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
  

 

Medication itself treats autism with different kinds of drugs, prescribed for anxiety, depression, OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorders) etc.

 

The Community Sport & Parent Training section works with doctor's opinions for an individual autistic patient with support and training, like setting a schedule or daily routine for bed time and to get up for those who are suffering from sleep disorder.

 

The last one is HBOT (Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy), the therapy treats autism or ASD using a way unlike other therapies. It directly deals with the impaired neuronal tissues of an autistic brain. As we know autism is not only a neurological but also a genetic disorder because it has a strong genetic basis, so the treatment of HBOT follows the route of molecular and cellular therapy.

HBOT simply follows the law of gas as it treats with supply of 100% pure oxygen at higher atmospheric pressure. We all know that the law of gas states, if you apply more pressure, then it will dissolve more gas in a liquid. The soda water or lemonade is made using the same law. Different hyperbaric chambers with flash-through system can supply more oxygen to the impaired neuronal tissues through the blood stream, dissolving more oxygen in blood. More oxygen in neuronal cells of an autistic brain can enhance the brain signal intensity using different neurotransmitters, as neurotransmitters are the chemical messengers between the synapses (junction of 2 neuronal tissues).

Apart from autism, HBOT treatment is also helpful for wound healing, gas gangrene, hypoxia etc.

 

Now we understand almost all the therapies used to treat autism, as autism is incurable in present days and according to CDC data report, 1 out of 68 children is found with autistic disabilities in the U.S.

 

A Different Way (mobile app) To Fight Back Autism:

We are using all the ways to fight back autism. As autism is mostly found and diagnosed in the young generation, so we should use some ways which can reach the younger generation very easily. Apart from the therapies discussed above, a new app is developed with a goal to treat the people having autistic disabilities.

iAssist Communicator is a new app, developed specially for the younger people who are dealing with autistic disorders. This app has a stock of 250 photos but the users can also upload their own photos and attach meaning. The stock of 250 images also have speech files. The custom photos can be used with the text-to-speech software including the stock photos in the app.

 

We are fighting with autism using different therapies and technologies with a hope that an ultimate cure of ASD or autism will come to rip off this brain disorder from the human genome.
