Summary

It is predicted by studies that the motor and cognitive performance disorders seen in children with Cerebral Palsy (CP) may lead to loss of balance, postural control and mobility. At the same time, trunk muscle fatigue seen in children with CP is a critical motor problem and may cause deficits in adjusting the proper connection between the trunk and pelvis stabilizers.These deficits can lead to impairments in balance, postural control and mobility. Considering the relationship between the deficits seen in children with CP and postural control and postural control with the trunk, the idea that there is a need for studies that evaluate the trunk in every way and reveal its relationship with balance, postural control and mobility in order to organize the rehabilitation program effectively in children with CP. Therefore, in the planning of our study, it was aimed to evaluate trunk control and endurance in children with CP and to examine their relationship with balance and functional mobility parameters, as well as to reveal their relationship with functional health and quality of life.

Evaluations

Within the scope of the study, the participants will be evaluated for 30 minutes in a single session. The participants' trunk stabilization and endurance, balance, functional mobility, upper extremity endurance, functional health and quality of life will be questioned by questionnaires, scales and tests. Evaluation will begin with a literature-supported demographic data form prepared for the participants. Assessments to be made are listed below. Trunk Control Measurement Scale (TCMS) Pediatric Balance Scale (PBS) Time Up and Go test (TUG) Trunk Flexor Test (TFT) The Pediatric Outcomes Data Collection Instrument (PODCI)
