简要总结
The study aims to determine the effects of dynamic flex cast with neurodevelopmental treatment on gross motor functions and gait in children with cerebral palsy.
详细描述
The study aims to determine the effects of dynamic flex cast with neurodevelopmental treatment on gross motor functions and gait in children with cerebral palsy. Combination of Dynamic flex cast with neurodevelopmental treatment will be a novel potential treatment to improve gross motor functions in cerebral palsy. We shall try to fill the gaps of previous studies. It will help in facilitating children to perform their activities, restoring normal ranges and treatment of spasticity in cerebral palsy.

结局指标
主要结局
Clinical Gait Assessment Scale
时间窗: 12 weeks
It is used to assess gait deviation. Temporal distance factors including velocity, cadence, stride length, stride width will be assessed.
Gross Motor Function Measure-88
时间窗: 12 weeks
The original GMFM has 88 items each scored on a 4-point ordinal scale of 0 to 3, where 0 indicates that the child does not initiate the task; 1 indicates that the child initiates the task (completes \< 10% activity); 2 indicates that the child partially completes the task (completes from 10 to 99% of activity); 3 indicates that the child completes the task (100%); and NT indicates that the child was not tested. The 88 items are grouped into five dimensions: 1) lying and rolling, 2) sitting, 3) crawling and kneeling, 4) standing, and 5) walking, running and jumping. Reliability with intraclass correlation coeffcient greater than .98 with 0.965--.994 95% confidence interval.
