Focused Ultrasound Pallidotomy for Dyskinetic Cerebral Palsy in Pediatric and Young Adult Subjects
The primary objective of the proposed study is to evaluate the safety of ExAblate Transcranial MRgFUS as a tool for creating bilateral or unilateral lesions in the globus pallidus (GPi) in patients with treatment-refractory secondary dystonia due to dyskinetic cerebral palsy
Homebased (6-week) Stretching Intervention in Children With Spastic Cerebral Palsy
This study will investigate the effect of a 6-week stretching intervention, consisting of a combination of a 2-week casting period and a home-based stretching program of the plantar flexors and hamstrings, on muscle and tendon lengths, range of motion, stiffness, and functional muscle strength. The study will include patients with …
Forward Versus Backward Gait Training on Functional Abilities in Children With Spastic Cerebral Palsy
This study aims to compare the effects of forward versus backward gait training on functional abilities in children with spastic cerebral palsy. Participants will receive gait training sessions focusing on either forward or backward walking to evaluate improvements in balance, mobility, and gross motor function.
Changes in Motor and Cognitive Function on Unilateral Spastic Cerebral Palsy, Associated With Videogame Therapy
The use of interactive applications associated with position and movement sensors has begun to spread as an option for the reinforcement of physical rehabilitation therapies in patients with congenital or acquired motor disorders as a result of some neurological damage, due to its portability and the relative autonomy granted to …
Effects of Hand and Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy Including Lower Extremity in Spastic Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy (CP), particularly the spastic diplegic subtype, is characterized by motor impairments such as spasticity and mobility limitations. In addition to motor dysfunction, children with CP often experience cognitive impairments affecting decision-making, problem-solving, working memory, selective attention, and inhibitory control. These non-motor challenges contribute to reduced social interaction and …
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 …
