L Test in Children With Cerebral Palsy

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the study was to investigation of the validity and reliability of the L test in children with cerebral palsy. Eighty children with CP with mean age of 11.60±3.85 (56 boys, 24 girls) were included in the study. ICC ((Intraclass Correlation Coefficient) was used to assess interclass, intraclass and test- retest validity of the L test. Two independent examiners made L test, for the inter-rater reliability, twice within 1 day for the test-retest reliability. The minimal clinical important difference at 95% confidence interval intra-class correlation coefficient and standard error of measurements were calculated. The correlations of L test with Timed up and Go Test (TUG) and Timed up and Down Stairs Test (TUDS) were assessed for concurrent validity.

Clinical Trial Description

Inclusion criteria were: cerebral palsy diagnosis, absence of other diseases that may impact gait performance, ambulatory for at least 20 meters, maximum level 2 according to Gross Motor Function Classification System. Exclusion criteria were: difficulty in following the instructions, severe lower extremity pain that affects mobility, orthopedic surgery within the last 12 months, Bothulium toxin A injection for lower extremity within the last 3 months and walking with a physical assistance from another person. Informed consents were obtained from the parents of the participants for the trial. Assessments were conducted in a special training and rehabilitation center where children with cerebral palsy received regular treatments. ;
