About

The aim of this study is to improve the manufacturing techniques of hip brace in preventing progressive hip displacement in patients with severe cerebral palsy, through the measurement of patient's physical size using a 3D scanner.

Full description

1. Design : Prospective Study
2. Setting: Hospital rehabilitation department and Home
3. Intervention: Before starting the study, radiologic and clinical evaluation were performed. After measuring the patient's exact physical size by applying a 3D scanner, we manufacture hip brace in preventing progressive hip displacement in patients with severe cerebral palsy. After wearing for a week, follow-up radiologic and clinical evaluation were performed.
4. Main outcome measure 1) Primary outcome: right, left, both hip MI 2) Secondary outcomes: the hip and knee joint range of motion (ROM), pain intensity, satisfaction and discomfort score for the hip brace, quality of life (QOL) of the patients and their caregivers, and the wearability test.

Enrollment: 19 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 1 to 15 years old
