NCT ID: NCT06425172 Not yet recruiting - Plagiocephaly Clinical Trials

Monitoring System for Cranial Orthoses

Start date: June 1, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is a study which investigates the wear time and fit of a cranial remolding orthosis (a standard-of-care treatment where an infant wears a custom helmet to help reshape their head as they grow).

NCT ID: NCT05917678 Recruiting - Torticollis Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Repositioning and Cranial Remolding in Infants With Cranial Deformation

Start date: May 23, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will examine how effective caregiver's repositioning strategies are in correcting an infant's deformational cranial shape, as well as the effectiveness of the use of a custom cranial remolding orthosis for treatment of deformational head shapes. Infants with torticollis will be concurrently enrolled in physical therapy treatment until the torticollis is resolved. A normal, unaffected population will be studied to compare typical growth to the growth of infants undergoing active treatment.

NCT ID: NCT02607969 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Deformational Plagiocephaly

Investigating the Effectiveness of Control Frequency on and Deformational Plagiocephaly

Start date: November 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

30 babies with Deformational Plagiocephaly (DP) due to the congenital muscular torticollis will be the participants of the study. The subjects will randomly allocated into the two home program groups; first home program group was seen once every six weeks (SxW), second home program group was seen once a week (OW). Parents will educate about the same home program which consisted of positioning the neck and head, sleep in alternating head positions and in side-laying to increase head shape symmetry and place infants, when awake and under supervision, regularly in the prone position a day to stimulate normal motor development (tummy time), decreasing the time spent in car seat at supine position. Environmental settings also will be given to challenge the baby look through from the side no flattening to room, place colorful and sonorous toys or mirror on the opposite of the flattening side, and stimulate active rotation by communicating with baby from this side. Handling strategies, stretching and strengthening exercises will be given for CMT. The parents will be reinforme if necessary. Positioning strategies will spread throughout the day.Plagiocephaly severity assessment scale (PSS) which has 5 subgroups as following frontal asymmetry, occipital flattening, head tilt, fascial asymmetry, ear asymmetry will be used to evaluate severity of DP.
