简要总结
This study will help to determine the beneficial effects of high frequency vibration on children with diplegic cerebral palsy in improving balance ,spasticity, strength of lower limb and quality of life and a comparison between the effect of simple conventional treatment and conventional management with the usage of vibrational therapy in cp patients.
详细描述
A study "Effect of whole body vibration training on mobility in children with cerebral palsy "states Whole body vibrational therapy induce an improvement in independent ambulation and mobility of lower limb by strengthening of muscles along with the refinement of walking pattern ,gait speed and stride length in children with cerebral palsy. On the basis of our study a better treatment protocol can be designed for future in diplegic spastic cerebral palsy children.

结局指标
主要结局
Modified Ashworth Scale
时间窗: 4 weeks
the gold standard clinical tool, widely used for the measurement of the increased muscle tone and for grading the spasticity of the muscle. This scale is categorized in to 5 grades ranging from score 0 to 4. where 0 indicating normal muscular tone and 4 indicating marked spasticity of muscle. The intra class correlation coefficient for MAS is 0.92
Pediatric Balance Scale
时间窗: 4 weeks
an upgraded version of berg balance scale (inter-tester reliability of 0.997 and test-retest reliability of 0.9989) used for the assessment of the balance of school age children having mild to moderate level of developmental disorders , motor impairment or with brain lesion while performing functional activities
