简要总结
The effects of different physiotherapy programs on children with cerebral palsy who have been received botulinum toxin injection and serial casting application will be determined.
详细描述
CP children who underwent botulinum toxin injection to medial gastrocnemius muscle and serial casting application in last two months will be included in the study. The effects of traditional physiotherapy and downhill backward treadmill training plus to traditional physiotherapy on muscle morphology, activity, walking, quality of life and selectivity will be determined.

结局指标
主要结局
Muscle strenght
时间窗: After six weeks intervention
Will be measured by manual muscle tester
Muscle morphology
时间窗: After six weeks intervention
Muscle thickness, cross sectional area, fiber length, pennation angle will be recorded by ultrasonographic measurements
Vascularization
时间窗: After six weeks intervention
Muscle vascularization will be recorded by Suberb Microvascular Imaging (SMI) method via ultrasonographic measurements
Range of motion
时间窗: After six weeks intervention
Will be measured with goniometer
Modified Tardieu Scale
时间窗: After six weeks intervention
Lower extremity spasticity will be mesured with this scale. Higher scores mean more intensive spasticity
Edinburgh visual gait analysis
时间窗: After six weeks intervention
Gait will be recorded as video and this video will be scored
次要结局
- Lower extremity selective control measurement(After six weeks intervention)
