Clinical Trial Summary

To investigate the effectiveness of neck and trunk stabilization exercises on communication and quality of life (QoL) in children with cerebral palsy (CP) with oral motor problems. Children with CP were randomly divided into Study Group (SG) and Control Group (CG). Neurodevelopmental treatment (NDT) approaches and oral motor therapy were applied to both groups. SG also received neck-trunk stabilization training.


Clinical Trial Description

In the multidisciplinary approach, special approaches to secondary problems, oral-motor trainings and communication studies are used in addition to Neurodevelopment treatment approach in the treatment of children with CP. Because of their impact on postural control, neck-trunk stabilization exercises are very important for therapeutic interventions designed to improve quality of life with activities of daily living.

As the increases in neck muscle strength are related to trunk stabilization, trunk stabilization exercises are thought to have positive effects on neck muscle strength. In addition, since the neck and trunk are complementary to each other, it is supported by the literature that neck stabilization exercises and trunk stabilization exercises should be applied together. ;
