简要总结
This study is a randomized control trial and aims to determine the effects of Action Observation on balance and mobility in patients with cerebral palsy compared to training without action observation.
详细描述
Effetcs of Action observation will be assessed for functional performance which includes the parameters of balance and mobility.
Spastic CP children agd 5-12 will be recruited in the study. The participants would be assessed through Modified Ashworth scale, GMFCS, Pediatrics balance scale and GMFM-88 .
Informed Consent will ne taken after which the participants will be recruited into the two groups, where one group will recieve training with Action observation and other group will receive training without Action observation.
Baseline and Post-treatment measurements will be taken for analysis.

研究组 & 干预措施
Interventional Group
The participants will receive AOT based mobility and balance exercises along with conventional therapy consisting of simple lower limb stretchings and strengthening .
The AOT-based exercises include different exercises in sitting, standing and turning stances.
The fun based activities inlcude reaching for objects, tower building and taking turns in various stances.
干预措施: Training with Action Observation Therapy (Procedure)
Control Group
The participants will receive mobility and balance exercises without Action Obseravtion along with conventional therapy consisting of simple lower limb stretchings and strengthening .
The AOT-based exercises include different exercises in sitting, standing and turning stances.
The fun based activities inlcude reaching for objects, tower building and taking turns in various stances.
干预措施: Training without Action Observation Therapy (Procedure)
结局指标
主要结局
Static balance
时间窗: 8 weeks
Pediatrics berg balance scale will be used for balance assessment. It has a total score of 56, with higher scores indicating better balance.
Dynamic balance
时间窗: 8 weeks
Pediatrics berg balance scale will be used for balance assessment. It has a total score of 56, with higher scores indicating better balance
Mobility
时间窗: 8 weeks
GMFM-88 scale will be used for assessment of mobility, particularly the subscales B,D and E related to mobility in sitting, standing and walking stances.
