In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The Active NBS Liege study is a monocentric, academic, fully remote, observational study designed to validate digital measures of motor development in children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) or Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) identified through newborn screening, family testing, or incidental diagnosis. The study will enroll 100 children and follow them longitudinally for up to 30 months. Participants are remotely recruited, and all procedures, including consent, questionnaires, and follow-up visits, are conducted by phone or video conferencing without any hospital visits. Children will use age-appropriate wearable devices at home: MAIJU®, a sensorized garment for non-ambulant infants, and Syde®, an ankle-worn sensor for ambulant children. Data collection includes digital motor endpoints, clinical information, and quality of life (PedsQL). Primary objectives are to validate digital
