Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of plyometric training versus virtual reality on upper limb among hemiplegic cerebral palsy
The randomized control trail was to determine the effects of additional functional Strength Training on mobility in Children with Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy.
30 children with a diagnosis of hemiplegic cerebral palsy
The goal of this intervention study is- 1. To determine if a camp that solely uses VR software based on HABIT (HABIT-VR) still improves the motor planning and execution deficits in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy (HCP) and 2. To determine if HABIT-VR improves bimanual coordination and affected hand function in children with HCP at least as well as a standard HABIT. Children with motor planning and execution deficits will receive 40 hours of either HABIT-VR or standard HABIT (4 hours per day, 5days/week, for two consecutive weeks), during which the investigators will track their performance of the tasks and their movements through 3-D motion tracking of the VR system. Post-camp, again the investigators will assess upper-extremity motor function. Additionally the investigators will assess pre to post camp improvement in hand function and bimanual coordination using Assisting Hand Assessment (AHA), Manual Ability Classification System (MACS), and manual dexterity using Box and Block test and 9 Hole Peg test.
The development of efficient and independent walking is an important therapeutic goal for many children with cerebral palsy (CP). Consequently, there has been growing interest in determining the effects of treadmill training programs for these children. This study helped to investigates the effect of treadmill training with visual feedback and rhythmic auditory cue (VF+RAC) for walking symmetry and balance ability. Participants were chosen from Sehat medical complex and they were randomly allocated to either the VF+RAC or the Control group. The VF+RAC group received treadmill training with VF and RAC, and the Control group undergo treadmill training without any visual and auditory stimulation. VF+RAC and Control groups was trained five times per week for eight weeks. After eight weeks of training the gait pattern and balance were evaluated by the gait parameters, 6min Walk test, Pediatric Balance Scale and Berg balance scale.
The 40-68% of ambulating hemiplegic children walk with genu recurvatum and hemiplegic patients shows excessive anterior pelvic tilts (>4 cm) during the stance phase. The objective of the study is to compare the effects of inclined backward treadmill walk vs kneel walk on genu recurvatum in hemiplegic cerebral palsy. 50 participants will be chosen according to inclusion exclusion criteria of the study which will be randomly allocated into two equal groups . One group will receive treadmill training programme with specifically designed physical therapy program according to child need for one hour for each child. And other group will receive kneel walking programme specifically designed physical therapy program according to child need for one hour for each child. The pre and post assessment of genurecurvatum will be assessed by Goniometer.
The study aimed to ascertain how cross-education affected the activity of the paretic muscles in the upper limb and how that affected function in children with spastic hemiplegia and cerebral palsy. Additionally, it sought to determine how unilateral isokinetic resistance training affected children with spastic hemiplegia of the contralateral limb in terms of strength development.
The aim of this study is to find Effects of constraints induced movement therapy (CIMT) versus mirror therapy (MT) on hand dexterity and grip strength in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.
Hypotheses: There will be an effect of radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy and peripheral magnetic stimulation on the following parameters, in children with spastic hemiplegia: - Wrist flexors spasticity. - Wrist joint range of motion. - Hand grip muscles strength. - Sensorimotor function of wrist and hand.
This research is being done to explore if modified, commercially available, joystick-operated, ride-on-cars can be used to promote bilateral arm function in children with hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy (CP). Specifically, the study evaluates the effects of a 6-week, home-based, child-friendly, innovative program that uses modified, commercially available, joystick-operated, powered ride-on-toys to promote spontaneous affected arm use and function in children with hemiplegic CP.
