Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to examine how helpful and relevant the Family Care Project workbook is for families from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds who have a young child at autism likelihood. The main questions this trial aims to answer are: - Is the Family Care Project workbook useful for families? - Is the Family Care Project workbook easy to use? - Can the Family Care Project be implemented by non-profit workers who do not have health backgrounds? Participants will complete surveys that elicit their feedback on their use of the workbook.
The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of a designed training program for nurses toward early detection of developmental disabilities among children (0-3 years).
Developmental delay occurs when a child does not achieve developmental milestones in comparison to peers of the same age range. Children and adolescents with developmental delay often experience participation restrictions. Visual motor integration (VMI) is the ability of the child's hands and eyes to work together to guide their movements. Visual motor integration is a broad term encompasses cognitive as well as manual domains. This study will focused on the Manual Dexterity and intra-limb coordination (VMI). And it will evaluate the effects of adaptive physical activity on Visual Motor Integration. Adaptive physical activities (APAs) are exercises and games that have been specially designed to fulfil the unique needs and skills of special needs or developmental delays.
Development; It covers the areas of physical, mental, emotional and social development. Development in one area affects other areas as well. Infancy is the period in which children grow and develop the fastest. Babies need many environmental factors and stimulants in order to have a healthy developmental process. For the Covid 19 pandemic, many restrictions have been made in Turkey to reduce the spread of the epidemic and to maintain social distance between people. It has been suggested that individuals practice their own social isolation. It has also caused babies who spend their time at home during the pandemic process to be deprived of environmental stimuli. In current studies in the literature, it has been reported that the COVID-19 pandemic affects infant and child development significantly and negatively. It has been reported that the risk of delay in children who have experienced the COVID-19 pandemic is especially in the fine motor and communication areas. There is a limited number of studies in the literature on this subject. No study was found in Turkey. The aim of this study is to evaluate the neuromotor development of infants in early childhood (6-24 months) in the Covid-19 pandemic and to reveal the effects of the pandemic process. Denver II Developmental Screening Test was used to evaluate the neuromotor development of healthy infants aged 6-24 months, who applied to the healthy pediatric outpatient clinic of Acıbadem Altunizade Hospital, and Alberta Infant Motor Scale was used to evaluate gross motor functions.
This study aimed to evaluate the concurrent validity information of the 24-, 30-, and 36-month Indonesian ASQ-3 with the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development 3rd Edition (BSID-III) in Indonesian children. Children living in Tanah Tinggi subdistrict, Central Jakarta, were recruited conveniently from November to December 2019. Children within the 24-, 30-, or 36-month age group were assessed for Indonesian ASQ-3 concurrently with BSID-III as the reference standard according to their age groups. Screening test accuracy was measured in sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values for both overall dan specific domains.
This study aimed to provide the validity and reliability of the Indonesian ASQ-3 questionnaires as a screening tool for developmentally delayed children aged less than one year old. This study was divided into 2 phases. The first phase (April-June 2018) included the transcultural adaptation of the ASQ-3 questionnaires for 2 to 12 months age groups from English to Indonesian. The second phase (July- September 2018) included a cross-sectional study of Indonesian ASQ-3 questionnaires for parents/caregivers of children aged 1-12 months, with 35 children in each age group by cluster sampling methods, in 2 district areas in East Jakarta.
In the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), infants encounter many sensory stimuli (excessive noise, bright lights, painful medical applications, etc.) that are not present in the uterus. During the critical period of brain development, this sensory overload affects the physiological responses of infants; It can lead to sensory processing problems by causing negative changes in motor, neurological and sensory development. Sensory processing was explained by Dunn as the emergence of appropriate reactions and behaviors in neurological processes in which visual, auditory, tactile, oral, olfactory, vestibular, proprioceptive and kinesthetic inputs are regulated.
High risk infant is defined as infant with a negative history of environmental and biological factors, which can lead to neuromotor development problems. It is a heterogeneous group of premature infants born under thirty-seven weeks of age, with infants with low birth weight, term or developmental retardation for various reasons. Therefore, preterm infants with low birth weight can survive with a neurological sequelae such as cerebral palsy (CP), epilepsy, hearing and vision loss, mental retardation, speech and speech problems, and learning difficulties. The clinical diagnosis of CP, which can be observed in high-risk infants, is based on the combination of some neuroimaging and neurological examinations and assesments like neonatal imaging, general movements (GMs) and Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE).
Family-centered care is a best practice approach to delivering high quality early intervention (EI) services for children 0-3 years old with developmental needs. Yet, family engagement in designing and monitoring their child's EI service plan is suboptimal. Families need a valid, reliable, and useful tool to share in decisions about the scope of their child's EI service plan. The investigators will achieve a major advance in contributing occupational therapy expertise to improve family engagement when designing and monitoring their child's EI services. The investigators will test the use of an evidence-based electronic tool with families at one EI program, when the child is due for an annual review of progress in the program. The investigators will also gather input from families, practitioners, and program leadership to identify facilitators and barriers to its use in multiple EI programs. This project tries to test an innovation in how the investigators deliver family-centered and participation-focused care. Study results will yield evidence for the effectiveness of the electronic intervention on parent activation, EI service plan focus, EI service use quantity, parent perceptions of EI service quality, and child functioning.
There is not a lot of research focusing on Black and African American families raising young children with developmental delays. While the investigators know that early intervention helps children and their families, Black children with developmental delays are less likely to access such services. The causes for these racial disparities are largely unknown. Researchers have recommended caregiver support programming while on waitlists to improve caregiver-provider interactions and caregiver knowledge of the diagnostic process and developmental delays. Once a child is referred to a clinic for developmental concerns, long appointment waitlists contribute to further delays in timely diagnosis and treatment, as well as parental distress. Support programs for waitlisted families can begin to address these challenges. In this study, the investigators will examine a program called Parents Taking Action with families on a waitlist for a specialty developmental evaluation. The investigators will study if the program is feasible in this setting, if participants like the program, and if child and parent outcomes improve after participants have completed the program.
