ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying the effectiveness of home exercise programs for babies with congenital muscular torticollis (CMT), a condition that affects the neck and head position of infants. CMT can make it difficult for babies to turn their heads and can lead to other issues if not treated. The goal of the trial is to see how well a structured exercise program, done at home with family support, can help improve the condition. Families will receive guidance and education on how to carry out the exercises, which is intended to make treatment more convenient and effective.

To participate in this study, babies must be between 0 to 12 months old and diagnosed with CMT by a doctor. Families need to be willing to join the exercise program. However, babies with certain neurological issues, sensory impairments, or those who have previously received treatment for CMT will not be eligible. If families choose to participate, they can expect to play an active role in their baby's treatment and work closely with researchers to help improve their child's condition. This trial is currently recruiting participants, and being involved could provide valuable support and resources for families dealing with CMT.
