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...

      ab: 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.
