简要总结
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of TENS with proprioceptive - visual training on gait parameters in children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy.
详细描述
Two groups of thirty diplegic CP children, ages 4 to 6, were randomly assigned to receive proprioceptive-visual training as the control group and TENS with proprioceptive - visual training as the research group. For eight weeks, both groups received therapy three times a week. Prior to and during the intervention period, each participant had an evaluation by gait analysis.
