Filter by:The goal of this low-interventional study was to study the effect of additional nutritional support with ONS "Nutrinidrink with dietary fiber" on the anthropometric parameters of patients and the dynamics of gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with cerebral palsy. Among the additional objectives were to study the quality of life, metabolic parameters and the dynamics of some functional parameters of patients. Possible adverse events were also studied and described.
The aim of this study is to examine the effects of diaphragmatic myofascial relaxation exercise and diaphragmatic breathing exercises added to the conventional physiotherapy and rehabilitation program in children with diplegic cerebral palsy (CP), primarily on MIP, MEP, and secondarily on thoracic cage mobility, pulmonary functions and sitting ability.
The main objective of this study is to assess the usability and efficacy of receiving therapy with the peaditric exoskeleton ATLAS 2030in children with gait impairment due to a cerebral palsy condition. It will be valued the impact of rehabilitation with the exoskeleton at the physical level on parameters such as joint range, spasticity, as well as the impact in quality of life. It is also assessed the impact at the level of functionality of the participants, through the administration of different functional assessment scales.
The contralateral hand deficits are often masked by the complex clinical presentation of the more affected hand in children with spastic hemiparesis. Thus, intervention targeting the contralateral hand is not often a component of the child's rehabilitation plan of care. The presence of bilateral hand deficits, even if subtle in the contralateral hand, may limit the transfer of unimanual gains following rehabilitation to bimanual activities of daily living tasks. However, conservation of upper-limb function of the less-affected side is highly important for individuals with hemiparesis, because this side is often employed as a compensatory 'tool' in performing activities of daily living . Therefore, the current study will be conducted to determine and compare the motor abilities of the less affected hand of children with hemiparesis.
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is considered a neurological disorder caused by a non-progressive brain injury or malformation that occurs while the child's brain is under development. CP primarily affects body movement and muscle coordination. Robot assisted gait training (RAGT) is considered to be a promising approach for improving gait related gross motor function of children and youth with CP. There is weak and inconsistent evidence regarding the use of RAGT for children with gait disorders. Further research is required with increased numbers and with relevant outcome measures to both confirm the effectiveness and clarify training schedules. The aim of this research project is to investigate the effectiveness of robot assisted gait training on improvements of functional gait parameters in children with cerebral palsy.
It was an intervention utilizing two toothbrushes on school going cerebral palsy children age (6 -18 yrs). The triple head tooth brush and single head brush was provided to parents along with dental health education to their parent on brushing technique and oral care for their child. Parents who give consent for their child were enrolled in the study. The plaque removal ability of toothbrush was assessed by Turesky modified Quigley Hein index. The reading for plaque score was recorded at base line and after the follow up of 4 weeks. Difficulties during brushing was also analyzed.
A pilot randomized clinical trial exploring the effect of a Multi Sensory Stimulation And Priming (MuSSAP) training on improving manual ability in infants at risk of developing unilateral Cerebral Palsy.
Statement of the problem : Which is more effective for treatment of drooling in children with spastic cerebral palsy; kinesio taping or oromotor training? Null Hypothesis: There will be no difference between the effectiveness of kinesio taping and oromotor training on drooling in children with spastic cp.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of synchronous telerehabilitation on improving upper extremity function in children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy.
Hippotherapy simulators imitate the passive movements of the horse, producing simple movements similar to those of the horse. Hippotherapy simulators are intended to improve sitting balance, postural control and trunk balance. The aim of this study was to research the therapeutic effects of hippotherapy simulator on sitting balance, trunk control and upper extremity skills in individuals with Cerebral Palsy (CP).
