About
Experimental study with a control group, developed with the aim of analyzing the impact of a telerehabilitation program based on the Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT) model on gross motor function and functional performance in children with cerebral palsy.
Full description
The sample consisted of 20 children divided into two equivalent groups: an experimental group (n = 10), which received the TND intervention program in a synchronous telerehabilitation format for six months, and a control group (n = 10), which maintained the usual care and clinical follow-up plan without additional structured intervention.
The children included had a clinical diagnosis of spastic cerebral palsy, aged between 6 months and 6 years, classified between levels I and IV of the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS).
The pre-intervention assessment was performed before the start of the program, and the post-intervention assessment took place after six months. The assessments included the GMFM-88, to measure gross motor function, and the CO-OP Performance Measure (COOPM), to assess caregivers' perceptions of performance and satisfaction.
