The problem
Intervention: Implementation of a novel protocol combining Capute Scales and General Movement Assessment to evaluate early language, cognitive, and motor development in infants with single ventricle physiology
Who it was tested with: 10 infants with single ventricle physiology aged 1-5 months evaluated in a cardiac neurodevelopmental program.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"We implemented a novel protocol using the Capute Scales and General Movement Assessment to evaluate early language, cognitive, and motor development in infants with single ventricle physiology." This is a descriptive implementation study documenting the feasibility and initial results of introducing these assessment tools into clinical care for a high-risk population, without a control group or randomization.
Small sample size (n=10), incomplete assessments due to medical instability (only 4 of 10 completed General Movement Assessment), no comparison group, no long-term follow-up data yet available, and study is ongoing
