Effect of Using Adaptive Seating Equipment on Hand Function — hemiparesis  

Cerebral Palsy Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effect of Using Adaptive Seating Equipment on Grasping and Visual Motor Integration in Children With Hemiparetic Cerebral Palsy

Clinical Trial Summary

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of adaptive swiss ball seating as an alternative for standard chair seating on hand function in children with hemiparesis. Subjects: A total of 30 spastic hemiparetic cerebral palsied children (19 boys and 11 girls), aged 3-6 years participated in this study. They were randomly assigned into control and study groups of equal numbers each consisted of fifteen children (n=15). Methods: Peabody Developmental Motor Scales 2 (PDMS-2) was used to evaluate each child individually before and after three successive months of treatment (3 sessions per week), to assess 2 subtests (the grasping skills and visual motor integration skills) for all children of both groups. Control group who received a specially selected physical therapy program for hand function on a standard chair seating. Study group who received the same selected program for hand function on adaptive swiss ball seating.

Clinical Trial Description

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of adaptive swiss ball seating as an alternative for standard chair seating on hand function in children with hemiparesis. In this study, a total of 30 spastic hemiparetic cerebral palsied children (19 boys and 11 girls) aged 3-6 years, they were selected from general hospitals and private centers in kafr El-Sheikh government, randomly assigned to either the control group (n=15), who received a specially selected physical therapy program for hand function on standard chair seating, or the study group (n=15), who received the same selected program for hand function but on adaptive Swiss ball seating. Both groups received 3 sessions per week for 3 successive months. Peabody Developmental Motor Scales 2 (PDMS-2) was used to evaluate each child individually before and after three successive months of treatment, to assess 2 subtests (grasping skills and visual motor integration skills). ;
