Summary

This study tests whether a wearable trunk brace, called the SPIO Core-Max Expedition TLSO, can improve head, trunk, and arm function in infants aged 6 to 18 months with cerebral palsy. Thirty infants will wear the brace for 2 hours daily over 6 months, and researchers will measure changes in posture and quality of life compared to standard care. The goal is to see if this device offers practical benefits for daily movement and comfort.
