What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

This study follows 100 infants diagnosed with or at high risk for cerebral palsy from birth to age 2. Researchers will track changes in motor skills, speech, cognition, and more to understand how the condition naturally progresses. The goal is to gather knowledge that could improve early detection and care, not to test a treatment.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors better predict and manage cerebral palsy early in life, improving care strategies.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It won't directly change outcomes, and results may not apply to all children with CP.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Infants will be included if they have a diagnosis of CP or "at high risk of CP" and under the age of 12 months. * Infants at high risk of CP as defined by any two (any combination) of the following: 1. Neuroimaging predictive of a motor disability including the involvement of 1 or more of the following structures: sensori-motor cortex, Basal Ganglia, Posterior Limb of the Internal Capsule, pyramids. 2. Trajectory of cramped synchronized general movements (GMs) on General Movement Assessment (GMA) OR absent fidgety GMs at fidgety age 3. Hammersmith Infant Neurological Exam (HINE) scores \<57 @ 3months or \<60 @ 6months or \<63 @9 months Infants will also be included if they meet BOTH of the following criteria (even if infants have a HINE score greater than the cut off scores stated above: i. Unilateral brain injury on neuroimaging (magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or cranial ultrasound (CUS)) predictive of CP ii. Clinical signs of asymmetry Exclusion Criteria: * Infants with progressive or neurodegenerative disorders or genetic disorders not associated with CP * Infants with other disability diagnoses e.g. Down Syndrome
