Filter by:The goal of this study is to conduct a prospective, longitudinal assessment of the natural clinical progression of children and adults with Synaptotagmin1-Associated Neurodevelopmental Disorder also known as Baker Gordon Syndrome (BAGOS). This will be performed by acquiring baseline measurements and developing effective outcome measures and diagnostic tools for the disorder, to prepare the healthcare system for future clinical trials.
Study Aims Pilot study: Due to the large recruitment goal and length of the project, the study team/PIs will evaluate the first cohort of 6-10 participants to refine study procedures and study-related materials. If no major modifications are made to the protocol as a result of this evaluation, data from these participants will be included for analysis. Aim 1: Evaluate the efficacy of an early, evidence-based, clinical experience-based therapeutic intervention (from the NICU to 12-months corrected age) on improving motor function and reducing severity of motor delays in infants at 12-months corrected age. The investigators hypothesize that the intervention group will demonstrate an average 8-point difference (0.5 standard deviation) compared to the standard of care group. [an 8-point difference is considered a clinically meaningful difference] Aim 2: Evaluate the early effects (i.e., before 12 months) of a therapeutic intervention, provided from NICU to 12-months corrected age, on motor function and severity of motor delay. The Investigators hypothesize that a statistically significant higher percentage of infants in the intervention group will demonstrate improved motor function and reduced severity of motor delays, compared to the standard of care group-assessed using sensors, the NSMDA and TIMP-as early as 3-months corrected age. Aim 3: Evaluate whether an early intervention that focuses on caregiver engagement improves caregiver well-being. The invetigators hypothesize that an intervention that focuses on supporting and addressing the individual needs of the caregiver will improve caregiver well-being. The investigators will evaluate these effects using the PedsQL (Family Impact Module).
Project Initiate is a pilot study of early neuromotor outcomes in high risk newborn infants who are referred to Early Intervention services after NICU discharge. The investigators hypothesize that infants with Medicaid insurance who have prompt access to weekly post-discharge therapy services will have better early neuromotor function at 3 months corrected age and better parent satisfaction than infants who receive only care coordination to help with Early Intervention enrollment and locating outpatient transitional services as indicated.
The objective of this study is to develop an automated, precise, quantitative assay for detecting atypical motor behavior and development in infants using data from wearable sensors and video recordings.
