Early Parenting Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ‘Early PACT’ for parents of infants with cerebral palsy: a study protocol of a randomised controlled trial
Overview
This paper outlines the protocol for a randomized controlled trial evaluating 'Early PACT,' an online Acceptance and Commitment Therapy-based support program for parents of infants at high risk of or diagnosed with cerebral palsy. The study aims to recruit 60 participants to compare the program against a waitlist control, focusing on improvements in parent mental health, well-being, and the quality of parent-infant interactions. Assessments are scheduled at baseline, post-intervention, and at a six-month follow-up.
