Abstract
IMPORTANCE
The prevalence of psychological distress among mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) suggests a need for interventions that address parental mental health during the critical period after the child's autism diagnosis when parents are learning to navigate the complex system of autism services.
La prévalence de la détresse psychologique chez les mères d'enfants atteints de troubles du spectre autistique (TSA) suggère la nécessité d'interventions axées sur la santé mentale des parents pendant la période critique après le diagnostic de l'autisme de l'enfant lorsque les parents apprennent à naviguer dans le système complexe des services de l'autisme.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate whether a brief cognitive behavioral intervention, problem-solving education (PSE), decreases parenting stress and maternal depressive symptoms during the period immediately following a child's diagnosis of ASD.
Déterminer si une brève intervention cognitivo-comportementale, formation à la résolution de problèmes (PSE), diminue le stress parental et les symptômes dépressifs maternels au cours de la période qui suit immédiatement le diagnostic de TSA d'un enfant.
DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS
A randomized clinical trial compared 6 sessions of PSE with usual care. Settings included an autism clinic and 6 community-based early intervention programs that primarily serve low-income families. Participants were mothers of 122 young children (mean age, 34 months) who recently received a diagnosis of ASD. Among mothers assessed for eligibility, 17.0% declined participation. We report outcomes after 3 months of follow-up (immediate postdiagnosis period).
INTERVENTIONS
Problem-solving education is a brief, cognitive intervention delivered in six 30-minute individualized sessions by existing staff (early intervention programs) or research staff without formal mental health training (autism clinic).
La formation à la résolution de problèmes est une brève intervention cognitive délivrée en six séances de 30 minutes individualisés par le personnel en place (programmes d'intervention précoce) ou du personnel de recherche sans formation en santé mentale (clinique de l'autisme).
MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES
Primary outcomes were parental stress and maternal depressive symptoms.
RESULTS
Fifty-nine mothers were randomized to receive PSE and 63 to receive usual care. The follow-up rate was 91.0%. Most intervention mothers (78.0%) received the full PSE course. At the 3-month follow-up assessment, PSE mothers were significantly less likely than those serving as controls to have clinically significant parental stress (3.8% vs 29.3%; adjusted relative risk [aRR], 0.17; 95% CI, 0.04 to 0.65). For depressive symptoms, the risk reduction in clinically significant symptoms did not reach statistical significance (5.7% vs 22.4%; aRR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.10 to 1.08); however, the reduction in mean depressive symptoms was statistically significant (Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology score, 4.6 with PSE vs 6.9 with usual care; adjusted mean difference, -1.67; 95% CI, -3.17 to -0.18).
Cinquante-neuf mères ont été randomisés pour recevoir la PSE et 63 pour recevoir les soins habituels. Le taux de suivi a été de 91,0%. La plupart des mères qui ont eu l'intervention (78,0%) ont reçu la totalité des cours de PSE.
À l'évaluation de suivi de 3 mois, les mères PSE étaient significativement moins susceptibles que celles du groupe témoin d'avoir un stress parental cliniquement significatif (3,8% vs 29,3%; ajusté risque relatif [aRR], 0,17, IC 95%, 0,04 à 0,65 ).
Pour les symptômes dépressifs, la réduction du risque des symptômes cliniquement significatifs n'a pas atteint la signification statistique (5,7% vs 22,4%; aRR, 0,33, IC 95% de 0,10 à 1.08); Toutefois, la réduction des symptômes dépressifs moyens était statistiquement significative (Inventaire rapide de la note symptomatologie dépressive, 4.6 avec PSE vs 6,9 aux soins habituels; différence moyenne ajustée, -1,67, IC 95%, de -3,17 à -0,18).
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE
The positive effects of PSE in reducing parenting stress and depressive symptoms during the critical postdiagnosis period, when parents are asked to navigate a complex service delivery system, suggest that it may have a place in clinical practice. Further work will monitor these families for a total of 9 months to determine the trajectory of outcomes.
Les effets positifs de PSE pour réduire le stress parental et les symptômes dépressifs au cours de la période critique post diagnostique , lorsque les parents sont invités à naviguer dans un système de prestation de services complexe, suggère qu'il pourrait avoir sa place dans la pratique clinique.
D'autres travaux assureront le suivi de ces familles pour une durée de 9 mois afin à déterminer l'évolution des résultats.
