Telemedicine in Early Childhood Constraint Therapy in Cerebral Palsy

Description

Children at a higher risk for Cerebral Palsy or children diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy within the age range of 4-13 months (corrected age) are being recruited for an Early Detection study.

For 3-months, two programs will be offered that may
help babies with cerebral palsy move and use their arms more like other
children at an early age. If you decide to participate, your participation
may mean:

  • 6-week telehealth therapy program (with one in-person visit) with our occupational/physical
    therapist to learn simple exercises to help your baby use their weaker arm.
    Your baby would also wear a soft mitt on their stronger arm to help them use
    their weaker arm.
  • 6-week telehealth parent support program, (with one in-person visit) with our counselor to learn more
    about movement, how babies learn, and parenting tips specifically designed for your
    family.

  • Two to three total in-person visits to our lab space to complete assessments and answer questions
    about how your baby is growing
