Summary

In recent years, it is seen that dynamic compression garments are used to increase body stability and to provide tone regulation. Dynamic compression garments are used to apply pressure to specific muscles or muscle groups. Different studies have drawn attention to the effect of dynamic compression garments on postural control and proximal stability. Researchers observed that upper extremity functions and fine motor skills improved with the use of clothing, and they associated this with improved proximal stability. In light of this information, the aim of this study is; To investigate the effects of dynamic compression garments applied in addition to traditional treatment on posture, trunk control, and upper extremity functions during sitting in children with hemiparetic CP.
