Clinical Trial Summary

This study was conducted in children diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP); It is a prospective randomized clinical study planned to examine the effects of treadmill and bicycle ergometer applications combined with fully immersive virtual reality (TISG) on motor function, balance and walking.


Clinical Trial Description

The aim of this study is in children diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP); It is a comparative study of the effects of treadmill and bicycle ergometer applications combined with total immersive virtual reality (TISG) on motor function, balance and walking. 34 cases diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy between the ages of 12-18 and attending a rehabilitation center will be included in the study. The sample will be divided into two groups by randomization (TİSG combined with treadmill group n = 17, TİSG combined with bicycle ergometer group = 17). Evaluations will be made before and at the end of treatment. An exercise program that will last 45 minutes twice a week for six weeks will be applied to both study groups. The treadmill combined with TİSG group will be given walking training on the treadmill in a virtual environment using virtual reality glasses. The TISG and combined bicycle ergometer group will be given exercise training on the bicycle ergometer in a virtual environment using virtual reality glasses. For both groups, this process will continue in the same order for each exercise in the session. It is assumed that performing the bicycle ergometer in a sitting position makes this exercise safe, easier to perform, and can be performed at different levels of motor function, regardless of the severity of motor impairment. Based on this assumption, this study aimed to compare the use of bicycle ergometer combined with TISG with the treadmill combined with TISG in improving functional capacity, balance and walking functions in children with CP. ;
