Clinical Trial Summary

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a common disorder which leads to physical disability in children throughout life and begins in early childhood. In cerebral palsy spasticity is considered as a primary factor leads to much impairment which is inversely related to functional development that means greater the spasticity lowers the level of function. There are many ways to treat spasticity which involve stretching, strengthening, postural education, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, cryotherapy and myofascial release technique.


Clinical Trial Description

This study will be a randomized controlled trial. Study will be approved by ethical committee. After that informed consent will be taken and patients will be included in the study on the basis of inclusion criteria. Non probability convenience sampling technique will be used and study will be conducted on 28 patients with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy, 6 to 12 years of age. Patient will be randomly categorize into two groups by using flip coin. Experimental group will receive myofascial release on ankle planterflexors and quick icing treatment protocol on ankle dorsiflexors. Control group will receive only myofascial release treatment protocol on ankle planterflexors. Pre and Post intervention assessment will be made for both groups. Tone of planterflexors will be assessed by Modified Ashworth Scale, ankle passive range of motion will be assessed by goniometer and static balance will be assessed by Romberg test(open eyes). ;
