NCT ID: NCT05339932 Recruiting - Cerebral Palsy Clinical Trials

Grand Valley State University (GVSU) Skills on Wheels

Start date: May 5, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Manual wheelchairs (MWCs) are widely used by children with physical disabilities, yet many of these children are unable to use their wheelchair independently. Instead, they depend on others to push them. This dependency results in limited opportunities to decide what they want to do and where they want to go, leading to learned helplessness, social isolation, decreased participation, and restricted involvement in physical activities. Furthermore, unsafe MWC use increases the risk of injury, as highlighted by the 44,300 children treated each year in emergency departments for MWC-related injuries. While independent MWC mobility can positively influence quality of life, MWC skills training must also be provided to promote safe, independent MWC use. The effectiveness of MWC training programs for adults is well established, yet the current standard-of-care does not include MWC skills training for children and research regarding the efficacy of pediatric MWC skills training programs is limited. Skills on Wheels seeks to address these gaps and provide pilot data for a future large-scale, multi-site research project involving a randomized controlled trial. Aim 1 is to explore the influence of Skills on Wheels on children's MWC skills and confidence in their MWC use. Aim 2 is to investigate the influence of Skills on Wheels on children's psychosocial skills, social participation, and adaptive behavior.

NCT ID: NCT05191654 Completed - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Investigation of Cardiopulmonary Parameters, Motor Development and Muscle Strength in DS With and Without CHD

Start date: October 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Congenital heart diseases (CHD) are detected in 40-60% of individuals with Down syndrome (DS) and increase the risk of developmental delay in the presence of syndromes. The aim of the study was to compare cardiopulmonary parameters, gross motor development and hand grip strength in DS children with and without CHD. Demographic variables, cardiopulmonary parameters and echocardiographic values were recorded. Gross motor development was evaluated with Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-88). Hand grip strength was measured with the Baseline Pneumatic Bulb Dynamometer.

NCT ID: NCT04789746 Enrolling by invitation - Cerebral Palsy Clinical Trials

Ready, Set, Go! A Physical Fitness Intervention for Children With Mobility Challenges

Start date: February 20, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Barriers to keeping and maintaining fitness as a young person with a disability exist across many domains of access to community locations such as fitness centers, so looking outside of these establishments may be necessary to advance fitness. This study is aimed at piloting a program that would address some of these barriers by hosting a modified after school running program with an underserved population in an accessible way. There is a second option to participate outside of school.

NCT ID: NCT04656990 Active, not recruiting - Sedentary Behavior Clinical Trials

SKIPping With PAX: An Integrated Gross Motor and Social-Emotional Skill Intervention

Start date: September 1, 2020

Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study was to test the effects of an integrated intervention on the gross motor and social-emotional development of rural preschool boys and girls. A secondary purpose was to examine intervention effects on physical activity and sedentary behavior. An exploratory aim was to examine the role of executive functioning skills on intervention outcomes. This study featured a repeated measures (baseline, six-month posttest, three month retention [nine-month follow-up]), control group, experimental design. Classrooms were randomly assigned to either the experimental or control groups. Experimental participants received intervention while control participants received business as usual curricula.

NCT ID: NCT03933709 Completed - Diet Modification Clinical Trials

Effect of a Nutritional Support System for Improving Gross Motor Function in Cerebral Palsy

ENSSIGMCP
Start date: January 12, 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Background: Most patients with cerebral palsy (CP) are dependent on parents due to the spasticity and limitations in their gross motor function. Additionally, many of them do not respond to physical therapy due to deterioration in their nutritional status, which is secondary to gastrointestinal disorders, parasitosis, dysbiosis and the catabolic state of the disease itself. Evidence suggests that greater independence and better clinical response can be achieved by correcting the nutritional status. However, basic treatments only contemplate the calculation of energy requirements and do not consider important nutrients in particular, supplementation with glutamine, arginine, zinc, selenium, colecalciferol, nicotinic acid, spirulina, omega 3, ascorbic acid, vegetal protein or even probiotics. Objective: To determine the effect of using a nutritional support system (NSS) diet, supplements and probiotic on the gross motor function in children with CP with spastic diparesic and Gross Motor Function Classification System III (GMFCS III). Material and methods: In an exploratory study with controlled clinical trial design, 30 patients were randomly assigned to receive: 1) dietary surveillance and conventional therapy (FG), 2) deworming and WHO diet (CG), or 3) deworming and the NSS (IG). The patients were recruited from the Children´s Telethon Rehabilitation Center (CRIT) in Tlalnepantla Estado de México. Males and females aged 4-12 years were included with CP and spastic diparesic GMFCS III, who had a full-time caregiver and whose parents agreed to participate. They were studied for thirteen weeks. Gross motor function was evaluated at baseline and at 7 and 13 weeks after therapy using the GMFM scale.

NCT ID: NCT03544840 Completed - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Investigating Trunk Control in Young Children With Down Syndrome

Start date: July 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Overall, the purpose of this dissertation research is to investigate trunk control in young children with DS. This will be done in three studies: 1. The purpose of the first study is to determine the reliability of the SATCo in young children with DS. The hypothesis is that the SATCo will demonstrate good (κ > 0.8) interrater and intrarater reliability. 2. The purpose of the second study is to examine the validity of the SATCo with the GMFM-66 and determine whether age and SATCo score predict GMFM-66 score in young children with DS. The hypotheses are that 1) the SATCo will show concurrent validity with the GMFM-66, and 2) both age and SATCo scores will be significant predictors of GMFM-66 scores. 3. The purpose of the third study is to explore the impact of a dynamic standing device (Upsee) on trunk control and motor skills in young children with DS. The hypothesis is that participants will demonstrate a greater change in scores on the SATCo and the GMFM during the dynamic standing home program phase than during the baseline phases.
