Clinical Trial Summary

The main objective:

To determine the effectiveness of a treatment that combines the application of a functional upper limb orthosis together with a home-based program of specific tasks in children with unilateral cerebral palsy versus a home-based program of specific tasks in improving structure and function, activity and participation.

Hypothesis:

The application of a functional upper limb orthosis together with a home-based program of specific tasks in children with unilateral cerebral palsy results in a greater improvement in structure and function, activity and participation compared to the implementation of a home-based specific task program.


Clinical Trial Description

Randomized clinical trial with blinding of the evaluator and the person analyzing the data.

A home-based protocol of specific tasks will be performed in both groups and one of the groups will also receive a treatment with upper limb splinting. The assessment will be made by a single evaluator with 10 years of experience in the treatment of children with motor disabilities. ;
