Cerebral Palsy Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effects on Hand Function With Robot-assisted Rehabilitation for Children With Cerebral Palsy: a Pilot Study
Objective: To investigate the effects of robot-assisted hand rehabilitation with a Gloreha
device on hand function and the participation of ADL for children with cerebral palsy(CP).
Materials and Methods: Five children with CP aged 6 to 18 years were recruited and received
12times of robot-assisted hand rehabilitation for 6 weeks of treatment (Sixty minutes a time,
twice a week). The performance was assessed by a assessor for three times (pre-test,
post-test, follow up at one month). The outcome measures Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Limb
section(FMA-UE),Box and block test(BBT), Maximal voluntary contraction(MVC) of extensor
digitorum communis(EDC), Flexor digitorum(FD), Grasp strength, & ABILHAND-Kids for ADL
ability. Collected data will be analyzed with ANOVA test by SPSS version 20.0, and alpha
level was set at .05. Our hypothesis are robot-assisted hand rehabilitation with a Gloreha
device has positive effects on hand function and the participation of ADL for children with
CP.
Hand function is the most important for ADL and learning ability. Many cerebral palsy(CP)
suffered problems with the gross motor dysfunction and hand function disability. An inability
to use the upper extremity in daily life can lead to loss of independence with ADLs and of
important occupations (eg, school). Robotic therapy can deliver larger amounts of upper
extremity movement practice for these individuals. Although the Robotic therapy appears to
provide some benefit for upper extremity motor abilities and participation but is of
uncertain utility for cerebral palsy(CP).
Objective: To investigate the effects of robot-assisted hand rehabilitation with a Gloreha
device on hand function and the participation of ADL for children with cerebral palsy(CP).
Five children with CP aged 6 to 18 years were recruited and received 12times of
