简要总结
The purpose of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of robotic-assisted locomotor therapy on improvements of functional gait parameters in ambulatory children with cerebral palsy.
详细描述
Within a randomized controlled design the effects of robotic-assisted locomotor training (15 sessions within 5 weeks) will be examined in a sample of 34 children with cerebral palsy.
Children will be randomly assigned to an intervention or waiting list group. Assessments will be performed at baseline, in week 6 as well as in week 12. The intervention is provided to the waiting list group after the assessment in week 6.
