Filter by:The rehabilitation process is critical for people with disabilities, and it appears reasonable to predict that adaptive physical activity will become an important instrument for holistic development in a human rights perspective within an ecological framework. To highlight appropriate physical activity and emphasise its importance as a space for social expression while designing rehabilitation and social inclusion procedures, as well as determining what the lines are and how to approach them. Cerebral palsy (CP) refers to a group of mobility and posture abnormalities caused by non-progressive interference in the growing brain. This randomised controlled trial will recruit patients using non-probability convenience sampling. Data will be gathered from the Pakistan Society of Rehabilitation Sciences (PSRD) and Behaviour and Special Education Services (BASES). Children diagnosed with hemiplegic cerebral palsy will be included. Patients will be placed into two groups: group 1 will receive an adapted physical activity program, while group 2 will receive conventional care/routine physical therapy. Both groups will receive 30-minute sessions per day, three days a week, for six weeks. The study will use pre- and post-test assessments of patients using the Manual Ability Classification Scale, Gross Motor Function Measure, Goal Attainment Scale, and Lower Extremity Functional Scale.The data will be analysed with SPSS version 25 software.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a new therapy approach to improve walking ability in children with Cerebral Palsy is acceptable to the children and the families in a community setting. The main questions we look to answer are: 1. Do the children/teens tolerate the therapy and feel that it is helpful? 2. Do the parents/ families feel the therapy helps and is easy to commit to? 3. Do the children/teens complete all their therapy sessions and assessments as planned? The participants will trial the therapy for 30 hours over 6 weeks and will perform assessments before and after to see if they meet their goals. They will also be interviewed to see how they felt about the therapy when they finish.
This project aims to investigate the effectiveness of an intensive, group-based Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) program for young children ages 2-6 years with unilateral hemiparesis, or weakness on one side of the body. This project involves two studies. Study 1 investigates the effect of one dosage of a 1-month, intensive group based CIMT summer program. Study 2 investigates the effect of a repeated, consecutive episode of the intensive, group based CIMT program for children who attended the program the following summer.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of virtual reality applications on the level of independence and upper extremity functionality perceived by children in daily life in children with hemipegic cerebral palsy. The research is a randomized controlled, cross-over study. The sample group of the research is children diagnosed with hemiplegic cerebral palsy and families who are receiving inpatient treatment in the pediatric service of Ankara City Hospital Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Hospital. Two groups, intervention (A) and control (B), will be created from the target research group using the randomization method. The upper extremity functionality of both research groups before the intervention will be evaluated with the 'Motor Activity Diary for Children' scale and the perceived independence level with the 'Children's Hand Use Experience' scale. After the initial evaluation is completed, group A, represented as the intervention group, will receive ArmeoSenso virtual reality intervention in the upper extremity hand function laboratory for 3 weeks, 5 days a week, each session for 30 minutes, in addition to traditional occupational therapy and physiotherapy rehabilitation programs. Meanwhile, group B, represented as the control group, will continue the traditional occupational therapy and physiotherapy rehabilitation program. At the end of the third week of the intervention, tests measuring upper extremity functionality and perceived independence level will be repeated. Measurement tools will be repeated at the beginning of the intervention, at the end of the 3rd week, and at the end of the intervention.
Hemiplegia in infants and children is a type of Cerebral Palsy that results from damage to the part (hemisphere) of the brain that controls muscle movements. This damage may occur before, during or shortly after birth. The term hemiplegia means that the paralysis is on one vertical half of the body. The aim of this study will be the to know the effect of mCIMT with and without mirror therapy on upper limb function in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. A randomized control trial will be conducted at Sheikh Zayed Hospital, RYK through convenience sampling technique on 30 patients which will be allocated through simple random sampling through sealed opaque enveloped into group A and group B. Group A will be treated with mCIMT and Group B will be treated with mCIMT and mirror therapy. Outcome measure will be conducted through pain and disability questionnaire after 6 weeks. Data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 21. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro - wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups. mCIMT with and without mirror therapy will be applied in patients with hemiplegic cerebral palsy to see the effect on upper limb function.
Cerebral palsy occurs in 2-2.5 per 1000 live births, seems to be the most common cause of lifelong physical disability, and has an impact on the child, caregivers, and society. The incidence of cerebral palsy continues to rise owing to the large numbers of premature and high-risk infants who survive. Task-oriented arm approaches promote intensive, meaningful, and goal-oriented training in subjects, and the voluntary functional activities of these subjects possibly reduce their motor disabilities.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of music therapy on the upper extremity functions and quality of life of individuals with Cerebral Palsy (CP). The secondary aim is to investigate the effect of music therapy on the sensory functions of the upper extremity in individuals with CP. Adolescent individuals with hemiparetic CP will participate in this study, and the participants will experience music therapy, which is a scientific intervention approach. If music therapy has a positive effect on upper extremity functions, they will be more active in daily life and their quality of life will increase. In the light of these data to be presented, a contribution will be made to the evidence level of music therapy in the literature and to the content of SP upper extremity rehabilitation.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the acceptability and efficacy of Go Move, a mobile website developed to assist youth with unilateral cerebral palsy and their caregivers with setting goals and selecting exercises and activities to meet the goals. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is Go Move accepted by youth with unilateral cerebral palsy and their caregivers? - Does Go Move support goal attainment for youth with unilateral cerebral palsy? Participants will set up and participate in a goal-driven home program using the Go Move mobile website. Participants will spend 1 hour and 15 minutes per week for 6 weeks working on their home program and will complete pre-intervention and post-intervention assessments.
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to learn about the implementation of Therapy Together, a pediatric constraint-induced movement therapy program in young children with unilateral cerebral palsy. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is the Therapy Together program effective in improving hand function and occupational performance compared to usual care? - Is it feasible to implement the Therapy Together program within the standard care, early intervention framework? Participants will participate in an 8-week pediatric constraint-induced movement therapy program. Researchers will compare the group completing the Therapy Together Program to a group that is receiving usual care to see if there is a difference in the change in hand function, occupational performance, and development.
