The Effect of Telerehabilitation on the Children With Cerebral Palsy and Their Caregivers
The Effect of Telerehabilitation on the Quality of Life, Anxiety and Depression Levels of Children With Cerebral Palsy and Their Caregivers
Cerebral palsy develops due to brain damage before, during and after birth. Motor control is impaired in individuals with cerebral palsy. Disturbances occur in muscle tone, mobility and body posture. There is no definitive treatment for cerebral palsy, but improvement in functions can be achieved with physiotherapy.
Because of the covid-19 pandemic precautions, activity level has been decreasing in children with cerebral palsy, as in adults.
Children experience physical, social and psychological problems caused by physical inactivity.
Exercises and games that can be done comfortably in the house will positively affect the physical development of children and enable them to spend productive time by getting away from excessive technology, internet and smart phone usage, excessive screen time.
The aim of this project; To ensure that children with cerebral palsy who need intense exercise and activity and who experience physical inactivity due to COVID-19 can exercise with telerehabilitation and to determine the effect of telerehabilitation on the quality of life, anxiety and depression levels of children with cerebral palsy and their caregivers.
It will be compared to a control group that did not accept telerehabilitation but was recommended to exercise at home.

Descrizione dettagliata
Cerebral palsy (SP); It is a group of permanent neuromotor disorders affecting movement, muscle tone and posture development as a result of non-progressive damage to the brain in the prenatal and neonatal period. In children with CP, it is observed that primitive reflexes continue, correction reactions occur late, muscle weakness, spasticity, loss of coordination and normal motor control cannot develop. Clinically SP; Spastic, dyskinetic, ataxic and mixed types are divided into four groups as SP.
Although there is no definitive treatment for CP, physiotherapy applications are of great importance in the treatment of problems. With physical therapy exercises, it is known that children with CP progress in factors such as postural control, muscle strength, flexibility, balance, physical activity capacity, mental well-being, participation in social life.
The COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, which has recently surrounded the whole world, has caused serious measures to be taken in all areas in our country. Serious warnings are made that everyone should stay at home. During this period, physical activity levels of children as well as adults decreased significantly. Children experience physical, social and psychological problems caused by physical inactivity.
Exercises and games that can be done easily in the house will positively affect the physical development of children and enable them to spend productive time by getting away from excessive technology, internet and smart phone usage, excessive screen time. (aerobic) and stretching activities. Physical activity programs that are age-appropriate, fun and diverse should be created for children.
In addition, games for physical activity in the family; It is also thought that it will increase socialization within the family, that individuals will listen to each other more, understand, share more, and prevent some anxiety and stress caused by coronavirus.
The aim of this project; To ensure that children with cerebral palsy who need intense exercise and activity and who experience physical inactivity due to COVID-19 can exercise with telerehabilitation and to determine the effect of telerehabilitation on the quality of life, anxiety and depression levels of children with cerebral palsy and their caregivers. It will be compared to a control group that did not accept telerehabilitation but was recommended to exercise at home.
