Summary

This study tests a therapy for very preterm babies (born before 32 weeks) who show abnormal general movements. The therapy involves gently guiding the baby's movements to mimic normal patterns, done by therapists and parents. Researchers will compare motor skills at 3 months and 2 years between babies receiving usual care plus this therapy versus usual care alone.
