NCT ID: NCT06173102 Recruiting - Plagiocephaly Clinical Trials

Cranial Orthosis Therapy for Plagiocephaly: an RCT Pilot Study Comparing Cranial Orthosis to the Natural Course

Start date: December 7, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Our study aims to assess the feasibility of a randomized controlled trial that investigates the efficacy of cranial orthosis therapy for treating severe deformational plagiocephaly in infants between 4 and 7 months old. The main question it aims to answer are: • Feasibility of conducting the study in our physiatry clinic. Participants will be randomized into two groups, receiving cranial orthosis at 1 week post initial visit, or the standard of care (7 weeks post initial visit). They will have head measurements and helmet adjustments as well as medical follow-up with a total of 4 visits. Post-treatment questionnaires will be filled out.

NCT ID: NCT05848895 Recruiting - Plagiocephaly Clinical Trials

OPT-IN: Osteopathic Plagiocephaly Treatment for Infants and Neonates

OPT-IN
Start date: October 26, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this crossover randomized clinical trial is to assess the effects of osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) compared to standard of care repositioning in children diagnosed with positional/deformational plagiocephaly. The main hypothesis is that children who received OMT will show significantly improved anthropometric measures of cranial symmetry over those receiving the current pediatric standard of care of repositioning. This is a two-arm, randomized cross-over clinical trial. With parental consent, pediatric patients (infants <4 months of age) will be organized into one of two groups: 1. Those who receive OMT with emphasis on osteopathic cranial manipulative medicine (OCMM) to restore cranial symmetry. 2. Those who receive standard care only with repositioning attention from the parents After 8-weeks of being in the first group, each participant will cross-over into the second group (OMT or repositioning) N = 122 subjects diagnosed with deformational plagiocephaly (DP) are to be recruited (to allow for natural attrition and loss to follow up) with the recruitment to continue until 61 patients have been placed in each of the two groups and will cross-over to the respective treatment group (OMT and standard of care repositioning therapy). Timeline: It is projected that to recruit and carry out the assessments and interventions (8-weeks of each group with 12-months of follow-up longitudinally), it will require two years (24-months) from the beginning of the study to completion.

NCT ID: NCT04672837 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Congenital Muscular Torticollis

Pediatric Integrative Manual Therapy in Babies With Deformational Plagiocephaly and Congenital Muscular Torticollis

Start date: June 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study evaluates the efficacy of Pediatric Integrative Manual Therapy in the treatment of positional plagiocephaly in infants. 25 participants will receive a protocol of Pediatric Integrative Manual Therapy and educational physiotherapy in combination, while the other 25 will receive a stretching protocol and educational physiotherapy
