NCT ID NCT04657276
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study adapted a test called the Segmental Assessment of Trunk Control (SATCo) into Turkish and checked if it works well for infants with Down syndrome. Researchers tested 27 infants to see if the tool reliably measures trunk control, which is important for motor development. The goal is to give therapists a better way to track progress in these children.
