Summary

The development of efficient and independent walking is an important therapeutic goal for many children with cerebral palsy (CP). Consequently, there has been growing interest in determining the effects of treadmill training programs for these children.

This study helped to investigates the effect of treadmill training with visual feedback and rhythmic auditory cue (VF+RAC) for walking symmetry and balance ability. Participants were chosen from Sehat medical complex and they were randomly allocated to either the VF+RAC or the Control group. The VF+RAC group received treadmill training with VF and RAC, and the Control group undergo treadmill training without any visual and auditory stimulation. VF+RAC and Control groups was trained five times per week for eight weeks. After eight weeks of training the gait pattern and balance were evaluated by the gait parameters, 6min Walk test, Pediatric Balance Scale and Berg balance scale.
