About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Motor Composite Score on the Bayley-III (administered at 6 months of corrected age) shows significant improvement in an intervention group-receiving usual care combined with a video-based home developmental intervention-compared to a control group receiving only usual care, among infants at high risk for developmental delay. The study subjects are infants discharged from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) who were born prematurely at a gestational age of less than 32 weeks or who sustained brain injury. The control group receives usual care only, while the intervention group receives usual care plus a parent-centered developmental training intervention. Parent education for this intervention involves 1:1 monitoring via video conferencing platforms to facilitate parent-centered early intervention at home; sessions last 30 minutes and are conducted once weekly from 0 to 3 months of corrected age and twice weekly from 4 to 6 months of corrected age.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Family-centered developmental training interventionOther

    In parent-centered developmental training interventions, parents administer developmental training to their infants at home, focusing on specific tasks selected by a therapist from a range of activities-such as motor play, look and see play, tactile play, and verbal play. Up to four tasks may be selected per day, with specific parameters regarding sessions, sets, and repetitions determined by medical staff or therapists based on the infant's performance. The program is implemented seven days a week.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Bayley-III Motor Composite Score

    This measure assesses the developmental functioning of infants and toddlers. The standard composite scores for each primary domain (Cognitive, Language, and Motor) range from a minimum of 40 to a maximum of 160. Higher scores indicate better developmental performance and a better outcome.

    Measured: corrected age 6 months

Secondary outcomes (56)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Family-centered developmental training intervention in people with Preterm, run by Seoul National University Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Bayley-III Motor Composite Score (time frame: corrected age 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Oct 2026.
