Breakthrough baby therapy tested for stroke recovery

NCT ID NCT03910075

Summary

This study tested whether an intensive rehabilitation program called I-ACQUIRE helps babies who had a stroke around birth improve movement in their weaker arm. Researchers compared two different amounts of therapy (3 hours/day vs 6 hours/day for 4 weeks) against regular therapy in 216 infants aged 8-36 months. The goal was to see if more intensive treatment leads to better arm function and skill development.
