Longitudinal Study of Early Treadmill Performance in Infants Born Prematurely

The purpose of this study is to determine if and when infants at risk for Cerebral Palsy will respond to the treadmill.  We will follow the developmental trajectory of their response pattern, the developmental factors influencing their response, and whether their response provides information useful for predicting a diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy and the onset of walking.  With our results, we hope to determine if and when a treadmill intervention program can be used with this population.
