Investigating Autimia, a Digital Intervention for Patients With Autism Spectrum Disorder

Investigating Autimia, a Digital Intervention for Patients With Autism Spectrum Disorder: Randomized Controlled Trial (Alnico Trial)

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 Jun 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to find out if autimia, a digital health intervention, can help adults with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) manage their daily lives and improve their well-being. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does autimia, together with regular treatment, improve health outcomes after three months better than regular treatment alone? * Are the positive effects of autimia still noticeable after six months? Researchers will compare two groups: * Intervention group: Participants use the autimia intervention and continue their usual treatment. * Control group: Participants continue with their usual treatment only. Participants will: * Participate in a video call with a specialist to confirm a diagnosis of ASD * Fill out questionnaires online at the start of the study, after 3 months, and after 6 months * Continue with their usual treatment (both groups) and use autimia, a digital health intervention, for six months (intervention group only)
