Development of a Digital Tool for the Individualization of Speech Therapy Care for Premature Newborns (NEORTHO)

August 14, 2024 updated by: Centre Hospitalier Sud Francilien
The study concerns the creation and implementation of a digital tool presenting the various orofacial stimuli that can be offered to premature newborns. This app is intended for parents, to allow them to play a more active role in their child's care, and provide them with special time with their child. The notion of pleasure is very important to us, and it's vital to help parents rediscover this feeling with their child. Different profiles will be created to individualize our recommendations, facilitate the understanding of orofacial stimuli, make them more concrete than drawings, and provide care adapted to each patient and improve the development of newborns through more regular orofacial stimulation.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Two groups will be formed:

Group A - control: receiving the speech therapy currently in place in the department.

Group B - experimental: will receive the same care as the first group, plus access to the videos and the introduction of early orofacial stimulation.

Group B: First, an initial assessment will be performed in speech-language pathology of the oro-myofunctional and oral functions of the newborn. This will determine which orofacial solicitations to give to the baby and create in the patient's profile.

Parents will be trained in orofacial stimulation and will be coached during the first sessions. When parents are ready, access will be given to their personal space on the application. Appointments will be scheduled to remodel the treatment if necessary. Sucking (ECEPAB), feeding (PIBBS) and behavioural (EDIN) abilities will be assessed. Parents will be asked to fill out a questionnaire about their feelings.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
30

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Child born prematurely before 29 weeks of amenorrhea (SA).
  • Alive for minimum 24h.
  • Holders of parental authority who have been informed of the study and have not objected.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Child born after 29 weeks of amenorrhea.
  • with a genetic or severe neurological pathology or withdrawal syndrome.
  • with a vital prognosis.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Milk taken daily
Time Frame: up to 3 months
Percentage of the amount of milk taken daily (measure taken once per week throughout the study).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
