Augmenting Ankle Plantarflexor Function in Cerebral Palsy
The first specific aim is to quantify improvement in ankle muscle function and functional mobility following targeted ankle resistance gait training in ambulatory children with cerebral palsy (CP). The primary hypothesis for the first aim is that targeted ankle resistance training will produce larger improvements in lower-extremity motor control, gait …
Virtual Reality vs Functional Strength Training in Children With Cerebral Palsy
Virtual reality (VR) has shown to be effective to improve arm function in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Recently, functional strength training (FST) starts to show to improve arm function in patients with stroke but has not been extensively explored in children with CP. This pilot study is to examine …
GO-PLAY - Early Family-Centered Intervention for Infants With High-Risk of Cerebral Palsy
Background. Early diagnosis of cerebral palsy (CP) is important to enable appropriate intervention at a time when neuroplasticity is at its highest. Early intervention with focus on family-centered, home-based, parent-involved, and supervised by specialist therapists show positive cognitive and motor outcomes. This study adhere to international guidelines for early diagnosis …
Protocol Validation of Dynamometric Measurement of Passive Inter-segmental Stiffness and Spasticity in Children With Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy (CP) refers to a group of movement and posture disorders responsible for activity limitation due to brain damage that occurs during fetal development or during the first year of a child's life. Given the multitude of treatment options available, the choice of treatment is a key determinant that …
Robotic TruST-Postural Intervention for Children With Cerebral Palsy
The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of a motor learning-based postural and reaching control intervention delivered with the robotic Trunk-Support-Trainer (TruST) compared to the same motor learning-based intervention delivered with Static Trunk Support Equipment in children with cerebral palsy (CP) classified as III and IV with …
Evidence-Based Neurorehabilitation in Children With CP
This 3-year research project aims to investigate and compare the treatment effectiveness (in terms of motor and psychosocial outcomes) and potential predictors (in terms of demographical, biological and psychosocial domains) of the intensive and distributed Childand Family-Friendly CIT protocols with an equivalent intervention period in children with CP by quasi …
Evaluation of the Efficacy of the Injection of Botulinum Toxin A vs Scopolamine Patches in the Treatment of Drooling in Children With Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy is the first cause of motor disability in developed countries. It is associated with altered motor function but also with mental, sensorial and behavior deficiencies. Drooling frequently occurs in children with cerebral palsy (37 to 58%). It causes multiple medical and social complications which can all increase disability …
Effectiveness of Unilateral Versus Bilateral Intensive Training in Children With Cerebral Palsy
This 3-year research project aims to investigate and compare the immediate and long-term treatment effectiveness as well as motor improving curve and potential predictors of the unimanual intensive training and bimanual intensive training protocols with an equivalent intervention period in children with hemiplegic CP and children with CP with apparently …
Effectiveness of Education in Relaxation Surgeries
The study will be carried out with volunteer patients who are followed up by the Orthopedics and Traumatology outpatient clinic of Muğla Training and Research Hospital and diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and meet the study criteria. The evaluations will be performed in the Orthopedics and Traumatology outpatient clinic of Muğla …
Safety of Cultured Allogeneic Adult Umbilical Cord Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Intravenous Infusion for CP
This trial will study the safety and efficacy of intravenous infusion of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of Cerebral Palsy
