Baby Brain Recovery Study

Perinatal Stroke: Longitudinal Assessment of Infant Brain Organization and Recovery Through Neuroexcitability, Neuroimaging and Motor Development

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 18 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study will be a longitudinal multiple-visit observational study, done to identify possible bioindicators of recovery and repair of motor corticospinal pathways which may be targeted by future interventions in infants with perinatal stroke. 65 participants will be recruited and complete 1 visit at time point 1 (0-2 months), and 2 visits at each timepoints 2-5 with windows of +- 4 weeks (3-6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months). Visits will consist of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) assessment during the child's natural sleep, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), and Motor Behavioral Assessments.
