Trampoline Exercises Children With Developmental Coordination Disorder

Effects of Trampoline Exercises Children With Developmental Coordination Disorder

RCT in which 28 children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) were enrolled and equally distributed into two groups; Participants in control group were treated with conventional physical therapy while experimental were given conventional physical therapy in addition to trampoline exercises. Assessment was at 0, 4 and 8 week using developmental coordination disorder questionnaire (DCDQ), pediatric balance scale (PBS) and peads quality of life (PQL)
