Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Infants aged 0\-9 months CA (early detection sub\-study) and 3 to 12 months \+2 weeks CA (intervention study), residing in a study geographical area, with one or both parents identifying as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, who are at risk of later adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes due to a history of any of the following factors; birth or pregnancy complications, preterm birth, low birth weight, maternal risk factors, admission to neonatal intensive care unit or special care nursery or post\-neonatal complications (infection, head injury, stroke) will be recruited to this study.
  • Infants will be screened and must be assessed as ‘high risk of CP/ NDD’ or have a confirmed diagnosis of CP (confirmed by paediatrician).
  • Infants are determined to be high risk of CP/ NDD if assessed as:
  • (i)‘Absent’ or ‘abnormal’ fidgety on General Movements Assessment for infants aged 12\-17 weeks; OR GMA ‘fidgety’ with segmental asymmetries; AND
  • (ii)‘Suboptimal score’ (score\<57 at 3m, \<60 at 6m, \<63 at 9m, \<67 at 12m) on the Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (90% predictive of CP) if aged \>18 weeks; OR ‘normal’ HINE score with 5 or more asymmetries (with confirmation from Hand Assessment in Infants with a 3 point difference between limbs).18 If infants enter the study after 18 weeks CA (ie no GMs assessment), eligibility will be achieved by a score indicating risk on the HINE/ 5 or more asymmetries PLUS a clinical history congruent with a diagnosis of CP; OR
  • (iii)‘Abnormal’ neuroimaging results associated with a motor disability including an abnormality in one or more of the following structures: sensorimotor cortex, basal ganglia, posterior limb of the internal capsule AND (i) OR (ii).
  • The Rapid Neurodevelopmental Assessment (4\-9 months CA), Ages and Stages Questionnaire \- Aboriginal adaptation (4\-9 months CA) and General movements assessment motor optimality score (3\-5 months CA) will also be conducted for participants in the early detection sub\-study to use in concurrent and predictive validity data for other disabilities.
  • Infants will be screened for eligibility for study inclusion until target of n\=86 is reached

Exclusion Criteria

  • Infants with complex medical conditions requiring acute medical care will be excluded
