Examining the Efficacy of Mollii Suit in Children With Non-Ambule Cerebral Palsy: A Single Blind Randomized Controlled Study.

Gross Motor Function Measure

时间窗: 15 minutes

GMFM evaluates children's motor activities in 5 different positions called 'lying down and rolling over', 'crawling and kneeling down', 'sitting', 'standing' and 'walking, running, jumping' on a scale of 0-3 (0: unable to initiate movement. 3: independent movement). It is a measurement method that scores.

Modified Ashworth Scale

时间窗: 5 minutes

Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) will be used to evaluate muscle tone. Hamstring and plantar flexor muscle tone evaluation will begin in the supine position, with the head in the midline and the extremities in the resting position, and MAS scores will be determined between 0-4 according to the resistance level of the antagonist muscles during passive movement.

Functional Reach Test

时间窗: 3 minutes

Functional Reach Test (FRT) will be used to measure trunk stability during reaching. The amount of lateral stretching will be measured from the tip of the 3rd metacarpal bone in a sitting position and at the edge of the wall.

Quality of Upper Extremity Skills Test

时间窗: 10 minutes

The Quality of Upper Extremity Skills Test (QUEST) will be used to evaluate the quality of upper extremity skills. The test is a criterion-referenced observational evaluation test consisting of 34 items. It consists of four subsections: "discrete movement", "grip", "weight transfer" and "protective extension". In the heterogeneous movements section of QUEST; The active joint movements of the child's upper extremity are observed one by one and scored according to the items. In the grip section; Functions such as grasping a cube, holding a pencil, grasping a chickpea are evaluated. In the weight transfer section, the child is asked to transfer weight to the front, side and back with his upper extremities while sitting. In the protective extension section, the protective extension reaction of the child forward, sideways and backward in response to a sudden push in a certain direction while the child is sitting is examined.

Constipation Assessment Scale

时间窗: 2 minutes

The Constipation Assessment Scale (CAS) will be used to evaluate children's constipation status. This scale evaluates the presence and severity of constipation in children and adults. This scale, consisting of nine questions, is a valid and reliable tool.

Modified Tradiue Scale

时间窗: 5-10 minutes

Modified Tardiue Scale (MTS) will be used in the evaluation of spasticity. MTS is a method that evaluates the velocity-sensitive nature of spasticity through passive movement. Muscle tone of the ankle plantar flexors will be assessed in both knee flexion and extension. Hamstring spasticity will be tested in the supine position with the pelvic-femoral angle at 90°. After slow and fast stretching of the joint, two values of the angle will be measured according to angle R2 and R1 respectively. R1 is defined as the point in the PEHA at which a catch or clonus is first felt during rapid stretching of the joint, while R2 is defined as the total PEHA of the ankle. R2-R1 represents the dynamic component of spasticity. Spasticity will be measured according to the muscle reaction when stretching as fast as possible and will be graded from 0 to 5.

Trunk Impact Scale

时间窗: 5 minutes

Trunk Impact Scale (TIS) will be used to functionally evaluate the trunk in the sitting position. It has three subsections: static and dynamic sitting balance and coordination.

Functional Independence Measure for Children

时间窗: 3 minutes

Children's functional independence assessments The Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM) will be used. WeeFIM is a modified version of the Functional Independence Measure (FIM), which was developed for adults, for children. It consists of 6 subheadings, including self-care, sphincter control, transfer, movement, communication and social status, and a total of 18 questions. Scoring is made between 1-7, with a high score defining a good level of functional independence.
