What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study explores whether a 12-week home-based trunk training program, guided by caregivers, can improve trunk control and gross motor function in children aged 4–12 with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. Twenty families will test the program, which uses video instructions and weekly check-ins. The goal is to see if caregivers can stick with the program and whether it leads to better posture and movement.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
a home-based intensive segmental trunk training program delivered by caregivers
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could offer a practical, low-cost way to improve trunk control and mobility in children with cerebral palsy at home.
What could go wrong
This is a small feasibility study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply to all children. Caregiver commitment and daily sessions may be challenging.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Children aged 4-12 years with a confirmed diagnosis of spastic diplegic cerebral palsy * Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) levels II-IV * Primary caregiver (mother or father) willing to commit to the 12-week program * Caregiver had access to a smartphone with video-calling capability * Caregiver able to understand and follow instructions in Urdu or English Exclusion Criteria: * Children with uncontrolled seizures * Children who had undergone orthopedic surgery or botulinum toxin injections in the lower extremities within the previous 6 months * Children with severe visual or hearing impairments that would interfere with participation * Caregivers with a diagnosed physical or mental health condition that would prevent them from safely delivering the home-based program
