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 …
Hybrid Early Intervention for Infants at Risk of Cerebral Palsy
This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and caregiver acceptance of the Homeostasis-Enrichment-Plasticity (HEP®) Approach, a novel early intervention based on the environmental enrichment paradigm, applied as a hybrid model for infants at risk for cerebral palsy (CP). The effects on functional goals, development, and parental well-being will be …
Upper Extremity Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation and Chest Expansion Exercises in Cerebral Palsy
Thoracic mobility is the mobility of the thoracic spine, and the rib cage is often measured by the degree of thorax expansion during breathing. Thoracic mobility is affected by many reasons, such as breathing mechanics, muscle stiffness, a sedentary lifestyle, and poor posture. The risk of respiratory illness should be …
EARLY Intervention in Parent-professional Cooperation in Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the most common motor disability in children. It is due to damage that occurs during brain development in the fetus or infant. Early treatment (before 2 years) will allow the child to promote brain plasticity to compensate for the effects of the lesion and reduce the …
Effects of Functional Exercise Program With Strength Load and Resistance in Children and Adolescents With Cerebral Palsy
This research project aims to evaluate the benefits of a functional exercise program with strength and resistance load in adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP), specifically classifiedat levels III and IV of the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) scale. Participants will be included into control or intervention group in this …
Trunk Stabilization vs. Core Stability Exercises: Impact on Balance and Walking Ability in Cerebral Palsy.
Brain lesions cause cerebral palsy, a chronic condition that affects movement, posture, and balance. Its causes range in age from pregnancy to postpartum, and they can impact the neurological, musculoskeletal, and sensory systems. This causes problems with balance, movement, and posture. It is essential to intervene early for improved life …
Whole Body Metabolism in Children With Cerebral Palsy With Low Skeletal Muscle Mass
At the center of pediatrics in Copenhagen the investigators experience that the children with CP with low skeletal muscle mass have more complications and admission after for example surgery is prolonged due to these complications. In order to prevent malnutrition and energy insufficiency as well as obesity and cardiometabolic disorders …
Intensive Video-Based Game Therapy Applications in Cerebral Palsy
This study investigates the effectiveness of intensive video game-based rehabilitation and intensive bimanual activity-based therapy for improving motor skills and daily living activities in individuals with spastic cerebral palsy (CP). Given the importance of high-frequency, short-duration interventions in CP rehabilitation, the research compares these two approaches while ensuring participants receive …
Hippotherapy Simulators on Trunk Control and Upper Extremity Functions in Cerebral Palsy
The hippotherapy simulator imitates the three-dimensional mechanical movement and walking of the horse and transfers the mechanical effect to the rider during hippotherapy. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exercise program with hippotherapy simulator on upper extremity functions and trunk control of individuals with cerebral …
Effect of Kinesio-taping of Lower Limbs
The goal of this clinical trail is to test if kinesio-taping on lower limbs has an effect on balance and gait in children with diplegic cerebral palsy. Children in study group will have designed physiotherapy for gait and balance, the control group will have designed physiotherapy in addition to kinesio-taping …
