Detaljeret beskrivelse

Children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy experience longer gait cycles, slower walking speeds, and longer support phases compared to healthy children, with substantial joint angle differences noted during ground contact and stride buffering. Although most can achieve independent walking, they often exhibit poor motor coordination, resulting in short strides and high stride frequencies for speed maintenance. Modified constraint-induced movement therapy has been employed to enhance lower-extremity function, but its effectiveness on key ambulation aspects like gait speed and balance remains unclear. The reliance on the unaffected limb further impacts locomotive behavior, leading to stiff knee gait and reduced functional mobility. This study aims to explore the therapy's effects on locomotion in hemiplegic children.

Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Modified constraint induced movement therapy
Fifteen children will receive a conventional physical therapy program for 1 hour and modified constraint-induced movement therapy for 30 minutes 3 times per week for 4 weeks.
Andet: Modified constraint-induced movement therapy

Three tasks will be designed to be performed for 10 min each while using the knee scooter as a method of constraint-induced movement therapy

The 3 tasks will be as follows:

  1. Walking with knee scooter forward on 8 meter walkway
  2. Walking with knee scooter backward on 8 meter walkway
  3. Standing with the knee scooter on balance board
Andet: Conventional physical therapy

  1. Repetitive motor training following shaping task

    • Step on stool.
    • Squat to stand.
    • Pressing the pedal stepper.
    • Walking on treadmill.

Tidsramme
assessment of spatial gait parameters
Tidsramme: At baseline and after Four weeks
Kinovea is a free 2D motion analysis software that facilitates inexpensive, sensor-free video-based motion assessments suitable for clinical practice. Its reliability has been established for measuring cervical range of motion (ROM) in both sagittal and frontal planes, dominant wrist joint ROM, shoulder ROM, and ankle joint ROM during walking. Additionally, it effectively measures spatial gait parameters, including stride length, step length, and hip, knee, and ankle angles at initial contact and mid-swing stages of the gait cycle. Required tools for its use include a walking area, digital camera, adhesive skin marks, and a tripod.

Tidsramme: At baseline and after four weeks
Kinovea is a free 2D motion analysis software that utilizes inexpensive, sensor-free video-based techniques for clinical motion analysis. Its reliability is essential for assessing important psychometric properties, especially in measuring various range of motion (ROM) for cervical, shoulder, and ankle joints, as well as capturing gait parameters like stance and swing phases. Required tools for its use include a walking area, digital camera, adhesive skin marks, and a tripod.

assessment of the functional mobility
Tidsramme: At baseline and after four weeks
The Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-88) is a reliable and valid assessment tool for measuring gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy, specifically focusing on standing (segment D) and walking/running (segment E). It is widely used in clinical and research settings to track changes over time or assess the impact of interventions. Due to its lengthy administration time, it is best used for annual or biannual evaluations or research studies, and testers should be well-versed in its use prior to administration.
At baseline and after four weeks
