Premature babies have a high risk of adverse developmental outcomes. Early intervention approaches are applied to reduce these adverse outcomes or support of developmental delay. Early intervention approaches may vary depending on developmental priorities. While some early intervention methods can consider body structured findings such as posture, tonus, muscle power, others may consider coaching family, enrichment of the environment. The explorer baby program is developed based on the trial and error process. The program tries to find an answer to a unique question: "how trial behavior in infants can be increased and which behaviors of the infants should be supported to increase their trial process?" The Explorer baby program tries to increase exploratory motor behaviors to facilitate development. For this aim, the program tries to explain how a baby learns new skills such as rolling, sitting, babbling, playing peek a boo, etc. in all domains of development while the baby lives in their natural environment. This study aims to investigate the effect of the explorer baby early intervention program.
The objectives of this project are to to build sustainable regional communities of Intellectual or Developmental Disabilities (IDD) stakeholders to provide ongoing input to research priorities, methodological processes, and relevant person-centered health outcomes; leverage existing Special Olympic infrastructure to nationally disseminate the toolkit in order to increase participation and engagement in research and improve health outcomes; conduct comparative effectiveness trials that incorporate people with IDD focusing on their research priorities.
The group of experts at HAS has defined the places of first and second-line workers in specific disorders of development and learning, as defined in the international diagnostic classifications International Classification of Diseases (CIM) CIM 11 and Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) DSM 5. The referral to a second-level structure, a multidisciplinary structure in charge of carrying out the different cognitive assessments, requires a preliminary evaluation. This orientation is based on a medical consultation, carried out by a doctor specialized in the field, with an exploration tool adapted to the different fields concerned. The BMTi, a battery of third-generation tests (after the Rapid battery of evaluation of the cognitive functions (BREV) and then the Evaluation of cognitive functions and learning of the child (EDA)) will enable the doctor, from 2018, to carry out this orientation in a relevant way in response to children with a complaint about neurodevelopment and learning. . The research project aims to validate this hypothesis, by comparing the diagnoses posed in a conventional way with the various multidisciplinary assessments, with the results of the transfer of all or part of the subtests of the BMTi by a doctor of second resort.
A major goal of early intervention (EI) is to employ a family-centered approach to helping children to optimally function at home and in the community. However, the effects of EI are poorly understood. The aims of this project are: 1) to test the feasibility, acceptability, and value of introducing novel electronic patient-reported outcome (e-PRO) measures in EI, to strengthen family-centered EI care; and 2) to obtain and pair these outcomes data with EI program data, to further determine the value of e-PRO data collection for examining links between EI service use and functional outcomes among families who are enrolled in a large, urban EI program.
Infants with developmental disabilities present a high risk of behavioral and socio-emotional problems. Their parents are themselves at risk of developing emotional and affective disorders which can impact the quality of the interaction with the infant. Early parenting empowerment focused on parent-infant interaction are beneficial in supporting infants development and parental adjustment. By using a multi-layer approach to outcomes assessment (i.e., behavioral, neuroendocrine and epigenetic outcomes), the present longitudinal, multi-center, change-promoting clinical trial is aimed at assessing the effectiveness of an early parenting empowerment intervention based on video-feedback technique to support maternal responsiveness and the socio-emotional development of infants with developmental disabilities.
This study is focused on developing the early integrated intervention for child brain-developmental disorders, including globe developmental delay (GDD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), in China.
A Phase II cluster randomized controlled trial of the (OHPROM) strategy/intervention will be conducted in partnership with several organizations that provide residential services for persons with intellectual developmental disabilities (IDD) in north central Kentucky and southern Indiana. The investigators have identified a purposive sample of group homes, caregivers, and persons with IDD and have the support of these organizations.
The main purpose of the pragmatic multicenter studies is to investigate the trransdiagnostic, manualized acceptance and commitment (ACT) therapy group treatment (Navigator ACT) in treatment of stress and distress in parents of children with disabilities, and to investigate the concepts of experiential avoidance and psychological flexibility in the context of parenting. The first phase includes a feasibility study (n=94) of the Navigator ACT for parents of children (0-17 years) with disabilties who participate in the Navigator ACT group treatment after being screened for symptoms of stress, depression and anxiety associated with the challenges of parenting. In the second phase a randomised controlled trial (RCT) is conducted. In the RCT, we expect to include approximately n=100 parents of children with disabilties divided into experiment- and control groups. The recruitment takes places in several regions in Sweden. In addition, we are going to complete a psychometric evaluation of the main outcome instrument used in these studies, The Parental Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (PAAQ). In an additional study (expected n= ca 600), we will predict factors that explain treatment outcome and attrition as well as investigate process variables in a mediation model,
The goal of the proposed research is to achieve a major advance in promoting effective and efficient delivery of pediatric rehabilitation services for young children with developmental disabilities and delays. The investigative team will examine the usability, feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of PEM+, an innovative web-based (mobile friendly) guide for care planning by parents of young children with developmental disabilities and delays. PEM+ is designed in partnership with parents and providers to support more collaborative and efficient clinical care planning with individual families who typically access pediatric occupational therapy services. Specifically, PEM+ enables parents to build on their baseline assessment of their child using the Young Children's Participation and Environment Measure (YC-PEM) to design specific solutions to their young child's participation-related problems. PEM+ affords parents the opportunity to do this in their own space and on their own schedule, as well as electronically share their proposed written solutions with their child's provider(s) and/or other important individuals in their young child's life.
