ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new way to check how young children between the ages of 1 and 6 develop their gross motor skills—things like walking, running, and jumping—by using video and artificial intelligence (AI). Right now, doctors and therapists watch children in person to see how they move, which can take a lot of time and effort. This study aims to create an easy, automated tool that can assess a child’s movement through video, helping to speed up the process and even allowing assessments to be done remotely, which means from home or other locations.

Children who can walk on their own and are between 1 and 6 years old may be eligible to join, as long as their legal guardian agrees to participate and they speak Chinese as their native language. If selected, families will be asked to have videos taken of their child’s movements, which will then be analyzed by the AI tool. This study is currently looking for participants and hopes to make it easier for families and healthcare providers to monitor early motor development delays and provide timely support.
