Clinical Trial Summary

The purposes of the current study are to: Define and compare between the efficacy of arm ergometer versus stabilization exercises on trunk control, hand grip power and upper limb quality of functions in children with diplegia.


Clinical Trial Description

Studies have shown that the cycle ergometer exercise improves several parameters, such as muscle strength and endurance, along with torso control in sitting position. However, these results are presented only in a small sample. Studies with the use of cycle ergometer in the population with CP are still few and present little information about the physiological effects .Previous studies on children with CP focused on the effect of ergometer on the upper and lower extremities functions. Limited literature is available regarding the effect of arm ergometer on trunk control among this population. The current study will be carried out to define the effect of arm ergometer versus stabilization exercises on trunk control, hand grip power, upper limb function in children with diplegia. ;
