Finger puppets could boost brain development in premature babies

NCT ID NCT06335524

Summary

This study is testing whether adding a special play activity using finger puppets to standard developmental care helps improve development in babies born prematurely. Researchers will compare babies who receive the puppet-based training with their caregivers to those who receive standard care alone. The main goal is to see if this playful interaction leads to better developmental scores when the babies are 12 months old (adjusted for their prematurity).
