Wearable Sensors to Detect Atypical Muscle Activation in Young Infants

Early Detection of Atypical Neuromuscular Development Using Wearable Sensors and Video: A Comparative Analysis of Muscle and Motion

• Status: Recruiting
• Phase: —
• Study type: Observational
• Enrollment: 40 (estimated)
• Sponsor: Shirley Ryan AbilityLab · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 0 Months – 8 Weeks
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if wearable sensor technology can be used to evaluate muscle activity and/or identify atypical muscle tone in infants up to 48 weeks postmenstrual age (8 weeks corrected age). These sensors are placed on the surface of the skin and record data about a child's body movements and muscle activity.
