简要总结
the effectiveness of task - oriented training with pretend play on gross motor function, functional capacity and cognitive function in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.
详细描述
PURPOSE: This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of task-oriented training with pretend play on: gross motor function, functional capacity and cognitive function in children with hemiplegic CP.
BACKGROUND: Children with HCP experience difficulty with the motor function of the affected lower extremity. The majority of children with hemiplegia are able to walk without restrictions but more advanced gross motor skills are often affected.
Task-Oriented Training is a contemporary neurological rehabilitation technique that has the prospects of improving the quality of life of children with CP. It is a function-based, goal directed intervention that requires active involvement of the patient in a therapy that is task and context-specific, which focused on the accomplishment of functional activities and participation.
Pretend play is defined as play in which the child acts with intent that is representational. pretend play helps children learn how to express themselves, explore social interactions, and understand things and people within a real-world context.
HYPOTHESES: There is effect of task-oriented training with pretend play on gross motor function, functional capacity and cognitive function in children with hemiplegic CP.

结局指标
主要结局
change from baseline in cognitive function on Wechsler intelligence scale for children (WISC-IV) at week13
时间窗: Baseline and week 13
WISC-IV is a valid instrument assessing cognitive function. It consists of 10 core subtests and 5 supplementary subtests. it provides four index scores, The Full-Scale Intelligent Quotient can be obtained from the sum of the 10 core sub test scores. change= (Week 13 score - Baseline score).
change from baseline in gross motor function on Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) at week 13
时间窗: Baseline and week 13
Gross Motor Function Measure is a valid, and reliable standardized assessment tool that measures change in gross motor function. It consists of 88 items grouped into five functional dimensions. Score of each item has four points ranging from 0 to 3; where 0 indicates that the child does not initiate the task; 3 indicates that the child completes the task (100%). change = (week 13 score -Baseline score).
change from baseline in functional capacity on six minutes walk test at week 13
时间窗: Baseline and week 13
six minutes walk test is a validated instrument assessing functional capacity. For the 6 - minute walking test during overground walking, the children will be encouraged to walk on 30 meters hard and even surface corridor for 6- minutes . Change = (week 13 score -Baseline score).
