简要总结
The aims of the study are to:
- Investigate the combined effect of functional task training with electrical stimulation of bilateral hip abductor muscles on balance in children with diplegia.
- Investigate the combined effect of functional task training with electrical stimulation of bilateral hip abductor muscles on motor abilities in children with diplegia.
详细描述
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of permanent disorders of movement and posture. It is non-progressive lesion or abnormality of immature brain. The term cerebral refers to the brain and palsy refers to the loss or impairment of motor function.
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a subtype of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in which the stimulation assists functional and purposeful movements. This is achieved by applying electrical stimulation to muscles that, when they contract, produce a movement that can be used functionally.The FES is used to provide electrical stimulation via the peripheral nervous system to activate muscle contractions to assist functional activities when nervous or musculo-skeletal systems are damaged.The common applications of FES include strengthening muscle, reducing muscle spasticity, increasing range of motion, improving upper extremity function and walking speed.
