简要总结
Down syndrome is a hereditary disorder resulting from the occurrence of an additional copy of chromosome 21, resulting in discernible variations in cognitive and physical characteristics. Finger gnosis pertains to the capacity to identify and discriminate among individual fingers. Tactile perception and body awareness are both encompassed by this particular component. Finger gnosis encompasses the sensory and cognitive mechanisms that enable an individual to recognize, label, and differentiate between their own fingers and those belonging to others. The therapeutic approach known as BIN Therapy is a non-invasive and pharmacologically unassisted intervention that use electrical stimulation as a means to enhance manual dexterity in individuals afflicted with neurological conditions
详细描述
It will be a randomized controlled trial. 30 patients fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be recruited by non-probability convenience sampling and then randomly divided in two groups using lottery method. Group A will receive will receive conventional physical therapy exercise program including core strengthening, balance and coordination exercise, fine motor skills activities with 2-3 times a week, with 20-50 minutes of each session with each set comprises of 10-12 repetitions of each exercise. And the group B will receive BIN therapy and finger gnosia. Sensory assessment will be assess by Revised Nottingham sensory assessment.
