Advance in Sensory Integration for Children (review) / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

Sensory integration treatment (SIT) corrects sensory dysfunction by controlling and regulating sensory input in the environment. SIT was currently used more and more widely, especially for children with behavioral and developmental disabilities. Based on the published researches for children in the past five years, SIT may work well for the population with something such as sensory processing and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Other specific results were different in the studies, and difficult to conclude. The research should be improved in the dificiencies as small sample size, confusing dosage and terrible fidelity. Intervention planning for individuals requires the integration of the information with specific knowledge of the patient's needs, expert consensus and professional judgment.
