NCT ID: NCT06075797 Recruiting - Pain Clinical Trials

The PediQUEST Response to Pain Of Children With Neurologic Disability Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

PQ-ResPOND
Start date: March 25, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to test the feasibility of running a full scale randomized controlled trial that compares the effect of the PQ-ResPOND intervention versus usual care to improve recurrent pain in children, adolescents, and young adults with severe neurologic impairment. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the study feasible and acceptable for participants? - Does PQ-ResPOND have a potential to be effective? Participants will: - answer surveys (their parents will) telling us about the child's pain, symptoms, and use of complementary therapies, and about their own psychological distress and satisfaction with care. - a group will receive the PQ-ResPOND intervention which consists of: - activating parents and providers by using the PediQUEST system, a web platform that administers surveys and generates feedback reports alerting parents and providers about the child's experience, AND - responding to child pain or discomfort by incorporating the Response team (members of the hospital's palliative care team) into the child's care to privde a standardized approach to managing recurrent pain. Researchers will use a comparison (control) group consisting of participants who will answer surveys and receive usual care (no feedback reports or consult with palliative care in this group) to see if a randomized design is feasible.

NCT ID: NCT06069765 Not yet recruiting - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Trunk and Upper Extremities Program Effect in Decreasing Compensation Patterns in Unilateral Cerebral Palsy Children

TUPEX
Start date: September 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of a trunk and upper extremities exercise program. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether the program decreases compensation patterns in unilateral cerebral palsy children Whether the program decreases pain in unilateral cerebral palsy children Whether the program improves bimanual ability in unilateral cerebral palsy children Participants will undertake and 8-week program exercise at home If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare with the control group to see if this program decreases compensation patterns.

Study of the Sensitivity to Change of a Bimanual 3D Analysis Protocol for the Assessment of Upper Limb Movement in Children With Cerebral Palsy Before and After Therapies

BE API CHANGE
Start date: July 16, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Cerebral Palsy is the most common cause of motor disability in children. It can lead to a deficit of the upper limb which alters the realization of daily activities, in particular in bimanual situations, and eventually leads to a decrease in their participation. Three-dimensional (3D) movement analysis is a tool that provides an accurate and objective measurement of movement. This technology allows us to understand and characterize movement anomalies in order to guide and adapt therapies to the upper limb. The majority of 3D upper limb analysis protocols used to measure the effect of interventions, such as botulinum toxin injections indicated for the treatment of spasticity or other innovative rehabilitative therapies, are unimanual and do not study bimanual function, which is more representative of the actual use of the upper limbs in daily life. Recently, a 3D bimanual analysis protocol called "Be An Airplane Pilot" (BE-API), taking place in an innovative play context, has been developed and validated in PC children. The 2nd version of the protocol (BE API 2.0) also allowed the exploration of new parameters in a bimanual situation such as the fluidity and the trajectory of the movement. In order to determine the interest of the BE API 2.0 protocol in routine clinical evaluation of the upper limbs, its sensitivity to change, i.e. its capacity to detect modifications caused by a therapy on the movements of the upper limbs is necessary (e.g.: Hand and Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy Including Lower Extremity (HABIT ILE), botulinum toxin injections).

Study of Sagittal Pelvic Statics in the Sitting Position in Children With Cerebral Palsy

SPS-PC
Start date: October 30, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Cerebral palsy is the leading cause of motor disability in children. Children with little or no walking (GMFCS III, IV and V) represent 43% of children with cerebral palsy, the majority of whom present pelvic and spinal deformities in the frontal and sagittal planes. However, sagittal pelvic spinal statics have been little studied, especially in the sitting position, which is the functional position of these children. Moreover, there are currently no recommendations on how to perform follow-up radiographs of the spine in children who do not walk much. A better understanding of pelvic and sagittal spinal statics would help prevent deformities and their complications. Standardizing the method of performing pelvic-spinal radiographs in the sitting position will make monitoring of spinal statics more reliable.

NCT ID: NCT04257981 Completed - Clinical trials for Cerebral Palsy Infantile

Effect of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation on Upper Extremity of Children With Hemiparesis

Start date: January 3, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Purpose: The aim of the study is to determine the combined effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and activities in virtual reality on the functional recovery of the upper extremity function of the children with hemiparesis. Subjects: Forty children with infantile stroke with age group between (6-12 years) will be divided into two groups, the experimental group will receive tDCS plus VR while the control group will receive sham tDCS plus VR. All the children will receive tDCS for 30minutes with 1.5 mA intensity over the dominant motor cortex. Both groups will be treated for three times a week for 6 weeks. Instrumentation: The the Fugl-Meyer assessment, motricity index, and Modified Barthel index will be used to assess the dependent variables after the intervention.

NCT ID: NCT03530189 Completed - Clinical trials for Cerebral Palsy Infantile

Outcome of Very Preterm Infants With Glucose Level Disturbances

Start date: January 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The hypothesis of this prospective, cohort study is that hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia and unstable glucose levels in the first seven days of life in infants born very preterm and at very low birth weights can harm long-term neurodevelopment. The objective of the study is to investigate the relationship between early neonatal glycemia, neonatal characteristics, and developmental outcomes in preterm infants. All infants born before 32. gestational week or below 1500 g admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit will be included in the study. According to the glucose values, the infants will be divided into the normoglycemic group and the group with disturbed glucose concentration. In the corrected age of two neurodevelopmental outcome will be assessed and categorized as normal, mild, moderate or severe impairment. Since the results of published studies about the effects of asymptomatic neonatal hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia on neurodevelopment are inconsistent, the correlation between early disturbances in glucose levels and neurodevelopmental outcome will be assessed.

NCT ID: NCT03282422 Completed - Clinical trials for Cerebral Palsy Infantile

Effectiveness of the Functional Hand Splint and Specific Tasks in the Domiciliary Environment Applied to Children With Unilateral Cerebral Palsy

Start date: September 11, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The main objective: To determine the effectiveness of a treatment that combines the application of a functional upper limb orthosis together with a home-based program of specific tasks in children with unilateral cerebral palsy versus a home-based program of specific tasks in improving structure and function, activity and participation. Hypothesis: The application of a functional upper limb orthosis together with a home-based program of specific tasks in children with unilateral cerebral palsy results in a greater improvement in structure and function, activity and participation compared to the implementation of a home-based specific task program.
