NCT ID NCT06623357
First seen Mar 11, 2026 · Last updated May 17, 2026 · Updated 9 times
Summary
This study tests a new training method for caregivers of infants with brachial plexus birth injury, a condition where nerves in the arm are damaged during birth, causing weakness or paralysis. The goal is to see if the training helps parents feel more confident and consistent in performing daily stretching exercises, which may prevent shoulder stiffness. About 20 caregivers of infants aged 6 months or younger will be split into two groups: one receives the new training, the other standard instructions. Researchers will compare confidence, ability, and how often stretching is done.
