Action Observation Training to Improve Upper Limb Function in Infants with Unilateral Brain Lesion - a Feasibility Study.
In this study, the feasibility of Action Observation Training (AOT) in combination with sensor-based measurements in infants at high risk of Unilateral Spastic Cerebral Palsy (UCP) were evaluated. Over a four-week period, eight infants at high risk of UCP performed AOT at home while wearing sensors with assistance of caregivers. Sensor data were compared to clinical assessments of upper limb function, the Hand Assessment for Infants (HAI) and the Mini-Assisting Hand Assessment (Mini-AHA). AOT training time and acceptance by the caregivers were considered as indicators for feasibility. The excellent training adherence and positive feedback of the caregivers showed that the AOT was feasible in this patient group and setting. Sensor measurements were accepted and displayed significant correlations with hand function. These preliminary results indicate the potential of wearable sensors to record upper limb function over the course of AOT for infants at high risk of UCP. Thus, AOT in combination with sensor measurements are proposed as a feasible training tool to complement usual care.
期刊介绍:
Developmental Neurorehabilitation aims to enhance recovery, rehabilitation and education of people with brain injury, neurological disorders, and other developmental, physical and intellectual disabilities. Although there is an emphasis on childhood, developmental disability can be considered from a lifespan perspective. This perspective acknowledges that development occurs throughout a person’s life and thus a range of impairments or diseases can cause a disability that can affect development at any stage of life.
