Brain activity study in infants during grasping
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses a safe, noninvasive brain-monitoring cap to see how infants' brains control grasping movements. It may help researchers understand typical motor development in babies.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby is between 3 and 9 months old
- Your baby can tolerate wearing a soft cap on their head for a short time
- Your baby reaches for and tries to grab a toy at least 2 times in one minute when you offer it
- Your baby has no history of nerve injury at birth or any brain condition like epilepsy
- Your baby does not have severe vision problems or a genetic syndrome that causes developmental delays

This trial tests an imaging method that measures brain signals without using X-rays. It may help researchers understand brain activity in healthy adults, newborns, premature babies, and pregnant people by testing whether the scan can be done reliably and safely.
This study measures a newborn’s brain activity immediately after delivery. It may help doctors better understand early brain function in healthy full-term babies.
This study uses a safe, non-invasive ultrasound technique to measure brain activity in newborn babies. It aims to understand brain development and connectivity in preterm infants, infants with birth-related oxygen deprivation, growth-restricted babies, siblings of children with autism, and healthy full-term babies.
This study uses safe MRI scans during natural sleep to look at how babies' brains develop, especially those at risk for cerebral palsy. It aims to find early signs of movement problems so treatment can start sooner.
This study tests if parents can use a simple EEG cap at home to record their child's brain activity. It may help understand early brain development in young children.
This study looks at how we hold and manage the umbilical cord right after birth in preterm babies (born before 34 weeks). It uses a special monitor on the baby's head to check oxygen levels in the brain while doctors decide the best way to care for the cord.
