Study type | Interventional |
Cerebral Palsy is the most common cause of severe physical disability in childhood and may present difficulties and limitations that will have an impact on their independence and integration in all social areas. Within interventions aiming to manage CP Whole-Body Vibration (WBV) has shown some benefits such as reducing spasticity or improving strength and functionality of the lower limbs. The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness on motor function and spasticity of the lower limbs by adding an intervention with WBV to an evidence-based multimodal physiotherapy treatment in children with CP.

Primary | GROSS MOTOR FUNCTION MEASURE 88 (D and E dimensions) | GROSS MOTOR FUNCTION MEASURE 88 is a clinical test to evaluate changes in gross motor function over time in children and youth with cerebral palsy.
The GROSS MOTOR FUNCTION MEASURE 88 is divided in 5 dimensions: A: Lying and rolling. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 51. Higher scores mean better outcome. B: Sitting. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 60. Higher scores mean better outcome. C: Crawling and Kneeling. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 42. Higher scores mean better outcome. D: Standing. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 39. Higher scores mean better outcome. E: Walking, running and jumping. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 72.

Primary | Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) | The Modified Ashworth Scale is a clinical tool to measure the increase of muscle tone.
MAS is a 6 point numerical scale that graded muscle tone from 0 to 4: 0 = No increase in muscle tone 1 = Slight increase in muscle tone. Minimal resistance at end of range of motion 1+ = Slight increase in muscle tone. Minimal resistance through less than half of range of motion 2 = More marked increase in muscle tone through most range of motion. Affected part easily moved 3 = Considerable increase in muscle tone. Passive movement difficult 4 = Affected part rigid in flexion or extension |

Secondary | 6 Minute Walking Test (6MWT) | 6MWT is a test that measures the maximum distance walked by each patient for 6 minutes, on a hard and flat 30 meters surface.
The 6MWT assesses submaximal functional capacity. In addition to distance, the test measures oxygen saturation and heart rate. |
