Pilot Study of Whole Body Vibration for Children With Cerebral Palsy (CP) From 12 Months of Age

Cerebral Palsy (CP) Clinical Trial

Official title:
Side-alternating Whole Body Vibration in Children With Cerebral Palsy (CP) From 12 Months of Age - Pilot Study

Clinical Trial Summary

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the most common cause of physical disability in childhood. Up to day the investigators have treated children diagnosed cerebral palsy with side-alternating whole body vibration (System Galileo®) from the age of two years on. Considering verticalisation (standing and walking) at about 12 months of age in a normal developing child the investigators suggest the introduction of verticalisation with whole body vibration to a child with CP at this early age in order to enhance motor development and participation.

In this pilot study the investigators will test the feasibility and the effect on motor development of whole body vibration in children with CP from 12 months of age. The investigators will investigate the effect of whole body vibration on motor performance, independence in all day living situations, quality of life and contractures compared to a control group.
