简要总结
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of dynamic surface exercise treatment on trunk control and gross motor abilities in children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy.
详细描述
A clinical trial was conducted to assess the impact dynamic surface exercise training on gross motor and trunk control of children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. The trial enrolled 38 children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy of GMFCS levels 3 and 4. Children were randomly assigned to either the DSET or conventional physiotherapy training groups. Both groups underwent 60-minute vigorous exercise program four days a week for two months. The trunk control measurement scale was used to assess trunk control, while the GMFM-88 was used to assess gross motor function. Trunk control and gross motor function scores were obtained at the beginning, the fourth week, and the eighth week.

结局指标
主要结局
Gross motor function measure- 88
时间窗: change in baseline scores and 8th week scores
The Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM 88) is used to evaluate change that occurs over time in the gross motor function of children with cerebral palsy. It explores five areas of motor ability, which are known as dimensions: A) Lying and rolling B) Sitting C) Crawling and kneeling D) Standing E) Walking, running and jumping
trunk control measurement scale
时间窗: change in baseline scores and 8th week scores
The Trunk Control Measurement Scale is a clinical tool to measure trunk control in children with cerebral palsy. total score is 58 . low score means severely impaired trunk control and a high score shows better trunk control
