Near-infrared Spectroscopy and Electroencephalography to Assess Cortical Activation During Motor Tasks in Infants and Toddlers with or at high-risk for Cerebral Palsy and Autism Spectrum Disorder Compared to Infants and Toddlers with Typical Development
Researchers at the National Institutes of Health are conducting a research study to learn more about the motor skill and brain development of infants who are at high-risk for or diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) compared to infants with typical development. The results of this study may assist with better methods for early diagnosis as well as improved treatment for children with CP and ASD. The results of this study may eventually assist with better methods for early diagnosis as well as improved treatment for children with autism.
