Overview

Randomized superiority trial investigates parent-led neuromotor training with AI movement analysis in children with coordination disorder, highlighting scalable home rehabilitation strategies.

Key Points

  • To describe the design of an assessor-blinded randomized superiority controlled trial evaluating a parent-led neuromotor training program paired with markerless AI movement analysis in children with developmental coordination disorder.
  • The trial will randomly assign (1:1) 62 children aged 7–14 years with developmental coordination disorder to either parent-led neuromotor training plus conventional physiotherapy or conventional physiotherapy alone.
  • The intervention requires parents to administer supervised home sessions for 30–45 minutes daily, 5 days per week, over 12 weeks.
  • Video recordings will be evaluated using Google MediaPipe Pose for markerless kinematic tracking, with the primary outcome of motor proficiency assessed via the Bruininks–Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency, Second Edition (BOT-2).
  • Primary efficacy will be evaluated by comparing between-group improvements in BOT-2 motor proficiency scores at the end of the 12-week intervention using intention-to-treat linear mixed-effects models.
  • Secondary analyses will assess AI-derived kinematic parameters, including symmetry indices, coordination scores, movement smoothness, and completion time, alongside parental adherence and satisfaction.
