Effect of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation on Risk of Falling in Cerebral Palsy Spastic Hemiplegic Children
The purpose of this study was to determine: If there is an effect of transcranial direct current stimulation in improvement the functional balance in CP spastic hemiplegic children. If there are any changes in risk of falling in CP spastic hemiplegic children or not.
Effect of Diving and Aquatic Exercises on Muscle Spasticity and Motor Function in Children With Spastic Cerebral Palsy
This study aims to evaluate the effect of diving and aquatic exercises on muscle spasticity and motor function in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
Operant Conditioning of the Soleus Stretch Reflex in Adults With Cerebral Palsy
12 adults with spastic CP will complete 6 baseline sessions and 24 down conditioning sessions held 3 times/week. All clinical and physiological assessments collected at baseline will be reassessed after study completion, and follow ups after 2 weeks, 1 month and 3 months. The soleus H reflex (electric analogue of …
Effects of Fun-Core (Child-Friendly Core Stabilization) Exercises on Balance and Functional Mobility in Children With Spastic Cerebral Palsy
A total of 54 children, aged between 6 and 12 years, diagnosed with hemiplegic cerebral palsy and not meeting the exclusion criteria, who registered at the outpatient clinics of the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Istanbul University, Istanbul Faculty of Medicine, between June 1, 2025 and March 1, 2026, …
Effect of Task-Specific Training in an Augmented Reality Context on Upper Limb Function and Activities in Children With Spastic Cerebral Palsy
Children with Cerebral Palsy (CP), a condition that affects movement and coordination, face difficulties in daily activities such as dressing, reaching for objects in high places, and getting up from seats. These challenges can negatively impact the quality of life for these children. Therefore, it is essential to seek effective …
Priming Effects of Ultra-high Frequency Quattro Pulse Transcranial Brain Stimulation Prior to Hand Motor Function Training in Children With Unilateral Spastic Cerebral Palsy
Unilateral spastic cerebral palsy (USCP) leads to life-long impairment with a hemiparesis of the affected side of the body. Rehabilitation efforts combine evidence based methods such as constrained induced movement therapy (CIMT) or hand-arm bimanual intensive therapy (HABIT) as well as training in daily life activities and psychological support in …
Feasibility Nutritional Supplements for Muscle Growth in CP
The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of a 10-week plan with a nutritional supplement (leucine) and to perform pilot analyses on the effect of leucine on macroscopic muscle morphology in children with cerebral palsy.
Late-presenting Hip Dislocation in Non-ambulatory Children With Cerebral Palsy: A Comparison of Three Procedures
Cerebral palsy (CP) is characterized by a fixed lesion that affects the neurological system during development. Pathologic hip conditions, such as subluxation or dislocation, are of great concern in non-ambulatory CP patients. Complete hip dislocations are commonly encountered in non-ambulatory CP patients and this can be quite problematic if pain …
Rhythmic Stabilization Versus Ball Balancing
Spastic Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the leading cause of upper motor neuron syndrome (UMN) in children. The primary factors contributing to motor behavior disorders in these children are impairments in motor control and muscle strength. These impairments result in changes in muscle growth and hinder the development of motor skills, …
Effects of Botulinum Toxin Injection Combined with RESWT in Lower Extremity Spasticity in Children with Cerebral Palsy
This study aimed to check and compare the effects of botulinum toxin injection combined with shock wave therapy versus botulinum toxin injection only for lower extremity spasticity in children with cerebral palsy
