简要总结
In Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability caused by differences in the brain. People with ASD often have problems with social communication and interaction, and restricted or repetitive behaviors or interests. People with ASD may also have different ways of learning, moving, or paying attention. The Aim of this thesis is Effects of Muscle Energy Technique with and without Stationary Cycling on toe walking children with Autism Spectrum Disorder This study seeks to explore whether the synergistic application of these interventions can provide a more comprehensive and effective approach in managing the debilitating symptoms associated with toe walking in Autistic children.
详细描述
. The study's sample size will be 26 participants. Inclusion criteria for this study will be: Diagnosed Autistic between ages 4-10 years, Diagnosed Autistic Children, Treatment was given to each of the participants for 3 days a week and for 8 weeks. Inclusion criteria were all gender with the age group of 4-10 years, participants diagnosed cases of Autism spectrum disease with Toe Walking and their exclusion criteria were suspected but undiagnosed cases of ASD, the presence of any limb deformities , autistic children with MR, and unwillingness of participant or parents to be a part of the study. An RCT included 26 diagnosed autistic children as per inclusion criteria the subjects were divided into two groups, i.e., group A and B, the group A was given MET with Stationary bicycling whereas Group B was given MET without Stationary Bi-Cycling participants were clinically examined. Dynamometer, foot posture Index, Observational Gait Scale, and Parent report of percentage of time toe walking,

Observational Gait Scale
时间窗: 8 weeks
Observational Gait Scale An Assessment/observational gait exam is the Observational Gait Scale (OGS). The OGS is primarily used to rate gait metrics using a structured scale from video recordings It focuses on the knee joint and foot position during mid-stance. . In routine clinical practice, observational gait evaluation is regarded as a more economical option to IGA. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the validity and reliability of the various pediatric gait analysis techniques by doing a thorough evaluation and comparing them to IGA.(20) The OGS score\'s validity was assessed by contrasting it with the 3-DGA. For knee and foot posture in mid-stance, first foot contact, and heel rise, the OGS was shown to have satisfactory interrater and intrarater reliability with weighted kappas (wk) ranging from 0.53 to 0.91 (intrarater) and 0.43 to 0.86 (interrater).
