Brief Summary: Children with Down Syndrome frequently encounter difficulties with sensory functions and feeding such as oral sensory processing issues and developmental disorders The aim of this study was to examine the effects of an Occupational Therapy Home Program on the sensory functions and feeding issues of children with Down Syndrome
Detailed Description: Although there are studies that investigate nutritional issues in children with Down syndrome no well-structured high-evidence and individual-centered studies have been found The literature assumes a relationship between the sensory functions and nutritional status of children with Down syndrome Therefore further studies are needed to develop intervention programs to prevent sensory processing and nutritional problems

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of occupational therapy home programs in improving sensory functions and feeding problems in children with Down syndrome The study focuses on evidence-based practices to assess the impact of these programs compared to not providing them

The study will be conducted with children diagnosed with Down Syndrome who have applied to the Pediatrics Unit of the Department of Occupational Therapy at Hacettepe University Faculty of Health Sciences

The study comprises pre-evaluation final evaluation and intervention stages Following the initial evaluation an occupational therapy home intervention program will be implemented for the children before and after each meal seven days a week for eight weeks Evaluations will be repeated after the eight-week period
