Early therapy for babies at risk of cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests an early therapy program for babies who are at risk of developing cerebral palsy. It includes movement training and other gentle activities to try to help their brain develop better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Baby is between birth and 9 weeks old
- Baby has unusual movement patterns (like cramps or jerky movements) on a specialized test
- Baby's brain scan (MRI or ultrasound) is abnormal, as confirmed by a neurologist
- Baby does not have any major vision or hearing problems
- Baby does not have a genetic syndrome or birth defect
- The family can commit to regular visits and therapy

This study looks at how high-risk infants (especially those born early or with brain concerns) develop their thinking and movement skills over time, comparing them to healthy babies. The goal is to better understand and support their development.
This study compares two different early therapy methods for babies with cerebral palsy or at high risk for it. The goal is to understand which approach best helps babies develop movement and coordination skills during their first three years of life.
This trial looks at an early intervention for very young babies who show signs they may develop cerebral palsy. The goal is to improve development as early as possible, especially in babies with concerning brain scan findings or movement patterns.
This study follows infants who already have cerebral palsy or who seem at high risk to develop it. It looks at early brain and movement signs over time, which may help doctors recognize CP sooner and plan support.
This trial aims to find and support babies who are at risk of cerebral palsy (CP) as early as possible. It checks specific early signs and brain or health risk factors, then helps determine whether early intervention might improve outcomes.
This trial tests a program that helps parents and healthcare professionals work together from the start to support babies with certain brain injuries that can lead to cerebral palsy. It may help improve your baby's development through early, coordinated care.
