About

In this study trunk, targeted training and gross motor function training were compared their effect on functional status, range of motion, and community participation of cerebral palsy children

Full description

In this project a randomized clinical trial was be conducted to determine the comparison of gross motor training technique and trunk training therapy on balance, Range of motion and community participation in children with diplegic cerebral palsy. This study aim to compare the effects of both the treatments to improve balance, quality of life and community participation. The sample was being collected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria using a convenient sampling technique within period of 6 months. The participants were be randomly allocated in two groups' .Group A received gross motor training which included sit to stand, step up and walking for 1 hour/day/3 days a week for 3 months. Group B received trunk targeted training for 1 hour/day/3 days a week for 3 months which included treadmill walking, reaching forward to the limits of stability and specific truncal activities with vibration and proprioception. The post treatment assessments was done via early assessment of balance, goniometer, and functional mobility assessment
