Filter by:This study aims to find the comparison of task oriented activity based neurodevelopmental principles and gross motor task training on balance, trunk control and functional mobility in children with cerebral palsy.
This intervention study was planned to investigate the effects of Sensory Integration Therapy that added to the conventional therapy program on spasticity, balance, motor function and functional independency levels of children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy
İntroduction The upper limb can be involved in children with cerebral palsy (CP), while the lower limb is more commonly affected. Little is known regarding the alterations in the upper limb kinematics after the orthopedic surgery of the lower extremity during gait. This study aimed to evaluate the differences in the upper limb kinematics in children with CP between preoperative and postoperative parameters.
Children with spastic cerebral palsy experience falls due to weakness in balance skills and abnormalities in gait parameters. It is necessary to improve the quality of life of these children by reducing the frequency of falling. Aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Neurodevelopmental Treatment on the risk of falling and balance and to contribute to the literature on this subject. Cases were randomized into study and control groups. At the beginning of the study, the balance skills of all the cases with spastic cerebral palsy were measured with the Pediatric Balance Scale, and the gait parameters and fall risks were measured with the LEGSys Temporospatial Gait Analysis Device. Then, an 8-week, case-specific, neurodevelopmental therapy program with intensive gait and balance training was applied to the study group in a 45-minute single session, 2 days a week. The control group received 8 weeks of conventional physiotherapy. At the end of the treatment process, the evaluations were repeated with the same methods.
Objective: To compare the effects of incentive spirometer as a visual feedback versus deep breathing via mirror mediated therapy on pulmonary function in children with spastic cerebral palsy. To determine the effects of incentive spirometer as a visual feedback versus deep breathing via mirror mediated therapy on sleep and quality of life in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to analyze the usability and safety of the prototype gait exoskeleton EXPLORE V2 in children with neurological and neuromuscular disease. Participants will use the exoskeletons in their home and the community and variables regarding safety and usability will be measured and recorded.
the current study will address the spasticity in calf muscle secondary to cerebral palsy in children. As the spasticity can inversely affect muscle contraction, joint function, and consequently the function and quality of life, the current study will investigate the effect of adding photobiostimulation therapy to standard physiotherapy on muscle tone, ankle range of motion, gross motor function, plantar surface of the affected foot, and quality of life in patients with spastic cerebral palsy
Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the primary causes of disability effecting majority of pediatric population. Cerebral Palsy is considered a neurological disorder caused by a non-progressive brain injury or malformation that occurs while the child's brain is under development. The worldwide incidence of cerebral palsy is it affects three to four individuals out of 1000 individuals in the general population. Cerebral palsy has different types depending upon the severity of disease or the area of the body it is affecting. Amongst the different types of CP, spastic diplegia is the most common type which mainly affects the lower extremities and lesser extent to upper extremities. It mainly affects functional performance and gait.
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurodevelopmental disorder is caused by damage to the developing brain and is characterized by abnormalities of muscle tone, mobility, and motor abilities. CP may only be recognized at 3-5 years of age. Pediatric endurance and limb strengthening (PEDALS) program is important to achieve endurance, gross motor function and some measure of strength in patients with diplegic cerebral palsy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the comparative effects of pediatric endurance and limb strengthening program with lower limb strength training in diplegic cerebral palsy.
cerebral palsy is the brain injury or brain malformation occur before, during and immediately after birth (while brain is still under development) and its effect muscle tone, reflexes, posture coordination gross and fine motor skill and oral motor functioning. The functional training is the physiotherapist and occupational therapy rehabilitation technique focus on strength and function of musculoskeletal system and its help the patients to making their daily life activity easier. The functional task training program consisted of non-walking (i-iii) and walking (iv-v) activities: (i) standing from a seated position; (ii) reaching for an object overhead, which required ankle plantar flexion from the standing position, and returning to the initial position with the heel leaning on the floor; (iii) stepping on and off a bench; (iv) walking up and down stairs; and (v) walking on flat surfaces and ramps. Children with cerebral palsy frequently receive. functional therapy programs the children participated in activities pertaining to everyday skills such as eating, playing, communication, and mobility. To optimize the child's opportunities to practice towards the goals, parents and preschool staff were guided on efficiently encouraging the child. Support and instructions from the professional to help them to develop better motor skills and increase independence in tasks like self-care, play, and recreational activities.so the study aimsto improve balance, gross motor function, and range of motion by using these functional training task and functional therapy program. In my study compare the compare task training versus functional therapy programsm on gross motor function, range of motion on, and balance in cerebral palsy children.
