Preterm infant motor development risk study
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how certain risks before and around birth may affect a preterm baby's motor skills (how they move and control their body). It will help doctors understand how to better support babies who are at risk for delays.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born preterm (before 37 weeks of pregnancy).
- Your baby has at least one biological risk factor (such as low birth weight, breathing problems, or infection around birth).
- You or your baby's legal guardian can sign a consent form to join the study.
- Your baby does NOT have encephalopathy, a genetic syndrome, a major birth defect, a muscle or nerve disorder, metabolic disease, or cancer.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how babies born early or on time develop their motor skills. Researchers will watch videos of your baby's early movements and then ask you to fill out a questionnaire about their development when they are 18 to 36 months old.
This study looks at how the brain and body work together to control movement in infants who are at high risk for developmental issues. It may help find early signs of motor problems.
This trial follows children who were born with high-risk medical conditions to study their motor skills development and related healthcare needs. It uses data from a national registry to track children at ages 2 and 5.
This study looks at a program to help infants and toddlers improve their motor skills. It includes educational workshops for parents and educators, and checks on babies' motor development over time. The goal is to catch any delays early and support healthy movement.
This study compares the home environments of babies who are developmentally at risk and those who are developing typically, to see if environment plays a role. It may help identify ways to support at-risk babies.
This study tests a motor (movement) training program for very young infants at higher risk for cerebral palsy or who show early signs of it. The goal is to see whether training improves early movement and development during the first months of life.
