Continuous Biosensor Data |
2 different non-invasive, wearable devices will be used in the study to determine changes in physiologic measures for the patient in the home environment. Biosensors will be worn continuously during the screening and treatment period to measure activity, sleep, position, heart rate, and breathing. |

Clinical Global Impression of Improvement |
Clinicians will use a 7 point Likert Scale to rate change from baseline symptom severity by addressing the question, "Compared to the patient's condition of Rett syndrome prior to treatment initiation at baseline, the patient's current condition is: 1 very much improved, 2 much improved, 3 minimally improved, 4 no change, 5 minimally worse, 6 much worse, 7 very much worse. No change would be scored a 0, while improvement would be scored at -1, -2, or -3 and worsening would be scored +1, +2 or +3, depending on the degree of perceived change. Negative change indicates improvement while positive change indicates worsening |

Motor Behavioral Assessment |
a 37-item questionnaire for clinicians to evaluate current behavioral/social, orofacial/respiratory, and motor/physical symptoms. Each item is rated either 0 (normal or never), 1 (mild or rare), 2 (moderate or occasional), 3 (marked or frequent), 4 (very severe or constant), where higher numbers indicate higher severity. Each subscale is summed for a subscale score, while the total score is a sum of the subscale scores. The behavioral/social subscale score may range from 0 to 64; the orofacial/respiratory subscale may range from 0 to 28, and motor/physical subscale may range from 0 to 56. Total score may range from 0 to 148. |

Clinician Domain Likert Scale |
an 8 category (domain) questionnaire to assess current hand function, walking, verbal and non-verbal communication, comprehension, attention, behavior problems, and mood by considering the question, "Considering your experience with the patient at this visit, please rate the level of function in each category". Each domain will be rated on a 7 point Likert Scale where the clinician will select 1 of 7 choices: 1 normal, 2 borderline abnormal, 3 mildly abnormal, 4 moderately abnormal, 5 markedly abnormal, 6 severely abnormal, 7 extremely abnormal. Lower values indicate lesser severity while higher values indicate higher severity. |

Rett Syndrome Behaviour Questionnaire |
a 45-item questionnaire for clinicians to evaluate current behavior and emotional features. Each item is rated either 0 (not true or not done), 1 (somewhat or sometimes true) and 2 (very true), where higher numbers indicate higher severity. Total score is summed and may range from 0 to 90. |

Parent Domain Likert Scale |
a 9 category (domain) questionnaire to assess current hand function, walking, verbal and non-verbal communication, comprehension, attention, behavior problems, mood, and seizure activity, by considering the question, "Considering your experience with your child over the past 7 days, please rate your child's level of function in each category". Each domain will be rated on a 7 point Likert Scale where the parent/caregiver will select 1 of 7 choices: 1 normal, 2 borderline abnormal, 3 mildly abnormal, 4 moderately abnormal, 5 markedly abnormal, 6 severely abnormal, 7 extremely abnormal. Lower values indicate lesser severity while higher values indicate higher severity. |

Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire |
a 35-item questionnaire for parents to evaluate current sleep and common sleep problems. The parent/caregiver will rate each item as 1 (rarely), 2 (sometimes), or 3 (usually), where higher scores indicate higher severity. The parent/caregiver will also indicate if the item is a problem or not. A total score of the sum of each item and 8 subscale scores (bedtime resistance, sleep onset delay, sleep duration, sleep anxiety, night wakings, parasomnias, sleep disordered breathing, and daytime sleepiness) are possible. Total scores between 0 and 70 are possible, where higher scores indicate more sleep problems. |

Rett Caregiver Burden Inventory Assessment |
a 26-item questionnaire for parents to evaluate the burden of care on their quality of life. The parent/caregiver will rate each item as 0 (never), 1 (rarely), 2 (sometimes), 3 (quite frequently), or 4 (nearly always) where higher scores indicate higher severity. Total scores between 0 and 104 are possible, where higher scores indicate more caregiver burden. |
