Abstract
Background/Aims Approximately 1 in 88 children in the U.S. are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Unfortunately, there is no identified etiology or definitive cure for ASD. Therefore, it is not surprising that many parents turn to complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) therapies for their affected children. Prior studies have suggested that CAM use is common in this population; however, these studies have been limited by small samples and an inability to assess response rates. The purpose of this analysis is to examine the prevalence and correlates of CAM use among a group of geographically- and racially/ethnically-diverse children with ASD who are enrolled in the Mental Health Research Network (MHRN) Autism Registry.
