Summary

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of functional movement-power training (PT-FMT), functional movement training (FMT) alone and no intervention in improving balance strategies and performance among children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD).

Design: A randomised controlled clinical trial. Sample: 87 children with DCD. Interventions: 12 weeks of PT and FMT or FMT alone in the two intervention groups.

Major outcomes: Sensory organisation test - balance strategy and composite scores; Movement Assessment Battery for Children - total impairment score and balance subscore; hand-held dynamometer measurements of lower limb muscle strength and time to peak force.
