Effects of Hand Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy Including Lower Extremity on Balance and Coordination in Ataxic Cerebral Palsy
Ataxic cerebral palsy is an abnormal movement or posture pattern accompanied by a loss of coordinated muscle action, resulting in movements that lack proper force, rhythm, or accuracy. Ataxic CP is classified into cerebellar ataxia and ataxic diplegia. In Cerebellar Ataxia, the cerebellum is hypo-plastic or malformed which impairs the …
Evaluating Long-term Use of a Pediatric Robotic Exoskeleton (P.REX/Agilik) to Improve Gait in Children With Movement Disorders
Background People with cerebral palsy, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, or spinal cord injury often have muscle weakness and problems controlling how their legs move. This can affect how they walk. The NIH has designed a robotic device (exoskeleton) that can be worn on the legs while walking. The wearable robot …
Effectiveness of Suit Therapy With Dual Task Exercises on Gross Motor Functions and Walking in Children With Diplegic Cerebral Palsy
This study aims to investigate the effect of suit therapy combined with dual-task training on gross motor performance and walking abilities in children with diplegic cerebral palsy.
Therapeutic Photobiomodulation and Tretament of Spasticity
Cerebral palsy is a non-progressive, permanent syndrome that occurs in childhood and is accompanied by motor, tônus and posture disorders. Its etiology is related to an insult or damage to the central nervous system in maturation. Approximately 80% of cerebral palsy course with spasticity, which, when left untreated, will generate …
Vibration Effects on Gait and Balance in CP
This randomized controlled study aims to investigate the acute effects of local vibration applied to the spastic medial gastrocnemius muscle on balance and spatiotemporal gait parameters in children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy. Children aged 4 to 18 years with spasticity levels of 1 to 2 on the Modified Ashworth Scale …
EMMVIES : Walking Training at Home in VIrtual Reality for Children With Chronic Illnesses Impacting Physical Health
Over the past 30 years, the prevalence of congenital or acquired chronic diseases in children has risen, affecting between 10 and 30% of them, or at least 100,000 children in France. Pathologies such as cerebral palsy (CP), neuromuscular diseases (NMD), obesity or congenital heart disease impact physical health by causing …
Evaluation of Effectiveness of Child-oriented Goal-setting in Paediatric Rehabilitation (the ENGAGE Approach)
Children with disabilities often access rehabilitation services to improve their abilities to participate in everyday activities. Goal-directed therapy is considered an important therapeutic strategy to achieve outcomes that are meaningful to families. Not a lot is known about the effects of goal setting on rehabilitation outcomes. Strategies to help children …
The Effect of a Soft Lumbosacral Body Brace Supporting Physiological Lordosis on Postural Control and Walking Speed in Children With Cerebral Palsy
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of soft lumbosacral body braces on postural control and walking speed in children with cerebral palsy. Hypothesis 1: Soft lumbosacral orthoses that support physiological lordosis in children with cerebral palsy improve postural control. Hypothesis 1: Soft lumbosacral orthoses that support …
Study of Olverembatinib (HQP1351) in Patients With CP-CML
A Global Multicenter, Open Label, Randomized, Phase 3 Registrational Study of Olverembatinib (HQP1351) in Patients with Chronic Phase Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (POLARIS-2)
Comparing Digitally and Traditionally Made Ankle Foot Orthoses
The research is being done to compare two methods of creating AFOs: 1. The traditional method, which involves manually creating a mold from a plaster cast of the client's limb. This is time-consuming and labor-intensive; and 2. The newer method uses digital technology, such as 3D scanning and printing, to …
