Comparative Effect of Functional Task Training Versus Function Therapy Program on Gross Motor Function, Range of Motion and Balance in Children With Cerebral Palsy

cerebral palsy is the brain injury or brain malformation occur before, during and immediately after birth (while brain is still under development) and its effect muscle tone, reflexes, posture coordination gross and fine motor skill and oral motor functioning. The functional training is the physiotherapist and occupational therapy rehabilitation technique focus on strength and function of musculoskeletal system and its help the patients to making their daily life activity easier. The functional task training program consisted of non-walking (i-iii) and walking (iv-v) activities: (i) standing from a seated position; (ii) reaching for an object overhead, which required ankle plantar flexion from the standing position, and returning to the initial position with the heel leaning on the floor; (iii) stepping on and off a bench; (iv) walking up and down stairs; and (v) walking on flat surfaces and ramps. Children with cerebral palsy frequently receive. functional therapy programs the children participated in activities pertaining to everyday skills such as eating, playing, communication, and mobility. To optimize the child's opportunities to practice towards the goals, parents and preschool staff were guided on efficiently encouraging the child. Support and instructions from the professional to help them to develop better motor skills and increase independence in tasks like self-care, play, and recreational activities.so the study aimsto improve balance, gross motor function, and range of motion by using these functional training task and functional therapy program. In my study compare the compare task training versus functional therapy programsm on gross motor function, range of motion on, and balance in cerebral palsy children.
