Clinical Trial Summary

Cerebral palsy is the leading cause of motor disability in children. Children with little or no walking (GMFCS III, IV and V) represent 43% of children with cerebral palsy, the majority of whom present pelvic and spinal deformities in the frontal and sagittal planes. However, sagittal pelvic spinal statics have been little studied, especially in the sitting position, which is the functional position of these children. Moreover, there are currently no recommendations on how to perform follow-up radiographs of the spine in children who do not walk much. A better understanding of pelvic and sagittal spinal statics would help prevent deformities and their complications. Standardizing the method of performing pelvic-spinal radiographs in the sitting position will make monitoring of spinal statics more reliable.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Evolution of the sagittal spinal statics in the sitting position measurement of pelvic incidence (normal values between 35 and 85 degrees) At baseline
Primary Evolution of the sagittal spinal statics in the sitting position sacral slope (angle of inclination of the sacral plateau in profile to the horizontal (degrees)) At baseline
Primary Evolution of the sagittal spinal statics in the sitting position pelvic version (angle between the vertical and the line joining the center of the femoral heads with the middle of the sacral plateau (in degrees)) At baseline
Primary Evolution of the sagittal spinal statics in the sitting position lordoses cervicales (in degrees) At baseline
Primary Evolution of the sagittal spinal statics in the sitting position lumbar lordosis (in degrees) At baseline
Primary Evolution of the sagittal spinal statics in the sitting position thoracic kyphosis (in degrees) At baseline
Primary Evolution of the sagittal spinal statics in the sitting position Cobb angle (if scoliosis) (curvature greater than 10 degrees : definition of scoliosis; between 10 and 15 degree: benign scoliosis; between 15 and 35 degrees: moderate scoliosis; curvature greater than 35 degrees: significant scoliosis.) At baseline
