No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The results of this study will have an impact upon public heath policy as adults with cerebral palsy (CP) present a growing and underserved population in the United States. At the conclusion of this study, we will have identified the means by which the adult with CP maintains their upright position, which is essential for activities of daily living and for movement. With this knowledge, it will be possible to develop clinical and rehabilitation interventions that will improve their arm and leg function, and reduce the risk of falls for the adult with CP.
