Bath time breakthrough: new test spots tiny movements in SMA babies

NCT ID NCT06152302

First seen Nov 21, 2025 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study aims to better understand movement in infants with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) by observing them in a bath. Water reduces the pull of gravity, which may help reveal subtle movements that are hard to see on a dry exam table. Researchers will use small motion sensors to measure these movements and compare them to standard tests. The goal is to create a more precise way to track disease and response to therapy, without changing the child's current treatment.
