研究组 & 干预措施
Hippotherapy
Patients suffering with diplegic therapy will perform their exercise protocols on a stationary horse.The child is seat astride the horse wearing a helmet and was encouraged to perform various activities designed to emphasize movement in a forward and upward reaching direction to encourage active postural control, trunk strength, balance and trunk/pelvic dissociation.30 minutes to 1 hour with a frequency ranging from 4 sessions per week and the total duration of horseback riding 6 weeks.
干预措施: Hippotherapy (Other)
Swiss Ball therapy
Children of second group will receive swiss ball therapy. Position the child to sit on the ball and giving extension rotation and flexion rotation to the child. This will facilitate trunk rotation by which the upper body is towards the weight bearing hip and away from the weight bearing hip.Training program 4 times per weeks with the treatment session of 30 minutes for 6 weeks duration
干预措施: Swiss Ball therapy (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Gross Motor Functional Scale
时间窗: 6weeks
Changes from baseline The Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) is an observational clinical tool designed to evaluate change in gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy.Greater score means higher functional level
Trunk Control Measurement Scale
时间窗: 6 weeks
Changes from Baseline The TCMS scale assesses seated trunk control in three dimensions. The maximum score is 58 points where 20 points correspond to static balance, 28 to selective movement control, and 10 to the ability to perform dynamic reaching
Pediatric Balance Scale
时间窗: 6 weeks
Changes from Baseline Pediatric Balance Scale is a modified version of the Berg Balance Scale that is used to assess functional balance skills in school-aged children. The scale consists of 14 items that are scored from 0 points (lowest function) to 4 points (highest function) with a maximum score of 56 points
