Early Intervention in Infants With Cerebral Palsy
Contractures are a frequent cause of reduced mobility in children with Cerebral palsy (CP) already at the age of 2-3 years. Reduced muscle use and muscle growth have been suggested as key factors in the development of contractures, suggesting that efficient early prevention will have to involve stimuli that can …
Effects of Treadmill Training and Whole-body Vibration in Children With Cerebral Palsy
Whole-body vibration (WBV) and treadmill training (TT) are commonly-utilized rehabilitation interventions for children with neuromotor disorders. WBV has been shown in the literature to positively affect gait and lower body spasticity in this population. However, the effects of a single session of WBV are generally transient, lasting between ten minutes …
Implementation of a HABIT-ILE Intervention at Home for Children With Bilateral Cerebral Palsy
Intensive interventions based on the principles of motor skill learning, like Hand-Arm Bimanual Therapy Including Lower Extremities (HABIT-ILE), have demonstrated excellent effectiveness in improving motor function and daily life independence of children with cerebral palsy (CP). Patients living far from big cities do not have easy access to such interventions, …
Motor Training for Infants With Cerebral Palsy
The intervention in this study, Let's Move, is a motor intervention for infants at risk for cerebral palsy. We will test the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention as well as preliminary effectiveness.
Examining the Effect of Eye Gaze Technology on Children With Cortical Visual Impairment
The goal of this study is to learn about eye gaze technology's use as an assessment and intervention of visual skills and the impact on occupational performance in children with cortical/cerebral visual impairment. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Does the use of eye gaze technology with …
Effectiveness of Robotic Gait Training and Physical Therapy for Children and Youth With Cerebral Palsy
Robot assisted gait training is seen as a promising intervention for improving the walking abilities of children with cerebral palsy, but research to support its effectiveness compared to best practice physical therapy is lacking. This research consists of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) and a qualitative descriptive study that is …
Examination of the Acute Effect of Mollii Suit in Children With Cerebral Palsy
The aim of our study is to examine the acute effect of Mollii Suit application on balance and muscle tone problems in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
Robot-assisted Training in Children With CP
Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common physical disability in early childhood causing serious motor and sensory impairments. Effective interventions for the recovery of motor functions are of profound significance to children with CP, their families, caregivers, and health professionals. Robot-assisted rehabilitation represents a frontier with potential to improve motor …
Stand-on Ride-on Power Mobility Devices for Children With Cerebral Palsy
The goal of this interventional study is to learn about the biomechanical factors underlying the beneficial changes in children with cerebral palsy after using individually-adapted stand-on ride-on power mobility devices (PMD). The main questions we aim to answer are: How does the use of stand-on PMDs affect static balance in …
The Impact of Aquatic Therapy on Walking, Balance Functions, and Quality of Life in Children With Cerebral Palsy
The purpose of the study is to contribute to the rehabilitation program by comparing the effects of traditional rehabilitation methods and aquatherapy given in addition to these methods in patients with cerebral palsy. If the superiority of the rehabilitation program including aquatherapy is demonstrated, evidence will be provided for its …
