Clinical Trial Summary

Interventional study involving the human at risk and minimal constraint (RIPH2), randomized single-blind comparing the impact of osteopathic treatment on the axial tone of the hypotonic infant versus simulation

Description:

Children referred to the "Center Broussais" clinic for hypotonia are evaluated in terms of psychomotor development by a pediatrician competent in neuro-pediatrics. It is a cabinet for the care of children from 0 to 16 years. Osteopaths and pediatricians work together in this office of which 50% are children with neurological disorders. If osteopathic care is indicated, and for children with inclusion / non-inclusion criteria, the study will be offered to parents. In case of parental acceptance, children will be randomized in single blind to receive either an osteopathic treatment (osteo group) or a simulation (simulation group). Neither the parents nor the pediatrician will know the randomization group. The osteopathic treatment or simulation will be performed in a standardized way according to a previously established protocol. In both groups, a neurological evaluation of the axial tone will be performed by a pediatrician before randomization, at the end of the first consultation and at the end of the 3rd consultation, ie 3 consultations by a pediatrician. If the child was drawn in the "simulation" group, three additional consultations will be offered at the end of the study to allow him to benefit from optimal osteopathic care
