Early birth risks and motor development
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how early birth and medical conditions after birth may affect a baby's motor development (such as crawling, sitting, and walking). It may help researchers understand which babies might need extra support.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born prematurely.
- Your baby has at least one medical condition that could affect development (for example, breathing problems or infections).
- Your baby does not have certain severe conditions, such as brain injury, genetic syndromes, birth defects, muscle or nerve disorders, metabolic diseases, or cancer.
- A parent or legal guardian must agree to participate and sign a consent form.

This study uses small wearable sensors to track your baby's movements and development. It is designed for infants who are at risk for delays due to conditions like premature birth, brain injury, or other medical issues.
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 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 children who had a high-risk start in life develop their movement skills. It aims to understand their motor development and the healthcare they receive, which may help improve support for them.
This study looks at whether babies who are at risk for developmental delays also face fewer opportunities in their home environment. They compare these babies to typically developing babies to see if there are differences.
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.
