Filter by:This project aims to investigate the effectiveness of an intensive, group-based Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) program for young children ages 2-6 years with unilateral hemiparesis, or weakness on one side of the body. This project involves two studies. Study 1 investigates the effect of one dosage of a 1-month, intensive group based CIMT summer program. Study 2 investigates the effect of a repeated, consecutive episode of the intensive, group based CIMT program for children who attended the program the following summer.
Hemiplegia in infants and children is a type of Cerebral Palsy that results from damage to the part (hemisphere) of the brain that controls muscle movements. This damage may occur before, during or shortly after birth. The term hemiplegia means that the paralysis is on one vertical half of the body. The aim of this study will be the to know the effect of mCIMT with and without mirror therapy on upper limb function in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. A randomized control trial will be conducted at Sheikh Zayed Hospital, RYK through convenience sampling technique on 30 patients which will be allocated through simple random sampling through sealed opaque enveloped into group A and group B. Group A will be treated with mCIMT and Group B will be treated with mCIMT and mirror therapy. Outcome measure will be conducted through pain and disability questionnaire after 6 weeks. Data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 21. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro - wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups. mCIMT with and without mirror therapy will be applied in patients with hemiplegic cerebral palsy to see the effect on upper limb function.
The purpose of this research is to see the effect of classic constraint-induced movement therapy and its modified form on quality of life of children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Randomized controlled trials with 2-3 weeks follow-up. The sample size is 40. The subjects are divided in two groups, 20 subjects in classical CIMT group and 20 in modified CIMT group. Study duration is of 6 months. Sampling technique applied will be purposive non probability sampling technique. Only 4-12 years individual with hemiplegic cerebral palsy are included. Tools used in the study are Cerebral palsy (quality of life) and Kid Screen 27.
The randomized control trail was to determine the effects of additional functional Strength Training on mobility in Children with Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy.
30 children with a diagnosis of hemiplegic cerebral palsy
The development of efficient and independent walking is an important therapeutic goal for many children with cerebral palsy (CP). Consequently, there has been growing interest in determining the effects of treadmill training programs for these children. This study helped to investigates the effect of treadmill training with visual feedback and rhythmic auditory cue (VF+RAC) for walking symmetry and balance ability. Participants were chosen from Sehat medical complex and they were randomly allocated to either the VF+RAC or the Control group. The VF+RAC group received treadmill training with VF and RAC, and the Control group undergo treadmill training without any visual and auditory stimulation. VF+RAC and Control groups was trained five times per week for eight weeks. After eight weeks of training the gait pattern and balance were evaluated by the gait parameters, 6min Walk test, Pediatric Balance Scale and Berg balance scale.
The study aimed to ascertain how cross-education affected the activity of the paretic muscles in the upper limb and how that affected function in children with spastic hemiplegia and cerebral palsy. Additionally, it sought to determine how unilateral isokinetic resistance training affected children with spastic hemiplegia of the contralateral limb in terms of strength development.
The aim of this study is to find Effects of constraints induced movement therapy (CIMT) versus mirror therapy (MT) on hand dexterity and grip strength in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.
The aim of the work was to find out the effects of sensorimotor training and constraint induced movement therapy on upper extremity function in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.
The aim is to investigate the effect of mirror therapy on hand functions in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.
