Study Summary
Children with Down syndrome (DS) are at risk for significant language and communication impairments. Enhancing the service delivery of early intervention for children with DS is a key research and policy issue given the prevalence and detrimental effects of persistent language impairments. Using a telemedicine approach allows clinicians to provide evidence-based treatment to families from a wide geographic area in Oregon who may not otherwise have access to a language intervention specialized for children with DS. Our innovative project involves the creation of a new treatment optimized for children with DS, as it will be the first study that translates an existing evidence-based language intervention-Enhanced Milieu Teaching (EMT) into a telemedicine model. The goal of this study is to examine whether a telemedicine approach is effective for training parents to implement EMT language support strategies and whether changes in parent behavior are associated with child communication and language growth. The investigators will pilot the telemedicine initiative to provide early intervention services to ten children with DS (aged 18- 48 months) and their families who live in rural and /or under-served areas of Oregon. The investigators will use single-case research design methodology to pilot this intervention research. The investigators will use secure video-teleconferencing technology to provide EMT. Clinicians will provide EMT to parents through interactive coaching, teaching them how to foster their children's social communication and language skills. Outcomes will focus on parents' use of language support strategies and children's social communication and language skills. Delivering early intervention to children with DS and providing parent-training at a distance using a telemedicine approach has the potential to transform the delivery of early language interventions for children with DS. Results of this study will directly inform the development and refinement of
