Early Markers (www.earlymarkers.com/emma) is recruiting parents/infants for a study to improve understanding of motor movements, especially in preterm infants. Emma Beta will support parent participation in this research study.
The parent will video the infant – awake and not fussy – on a clear and flat surface (such as floor, crib or bed) for 3-5 minutes. Parents then upload the videos to a secure portal for review by a licensed pediatric occupational (OT) or physical therapist (PT).
The app supports acquisition of videos directly using the devices’ camera (iOS) and also attaching a previously-acquired video for upload to the research team.
A risk assessment report, indicating the infant’s risk for CP (cerebral palsy) or other potential motor disorders, can be downloaded via the app.
The study has been cleared by Institutional Review Board (IRB) from Ethical & Independent Services IRB#22033.
