Role of Early Motor Experience in Infants With Down Syndrome

Conditions

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Infants with Down syndrome show significant delays and weaknesses in motor, cognitive, and language development compared to typically developing infants. This project aims to examine the developmental cascade effects of specific gross and fine motor experience on motor, cognitive and language development in infants with Down syndrome. We propose that both gross and fine motor experience will facilitate cognitive and language development in infants with Down syndrome, and particularly, fine motor experience will help advance gesture and early words production.
