Summary

ABSTRACT:

Purpose: To investigate the effect of interactive training on muscle strength and coordination in children with hemiparesis.

Materials and methods: This study involved 30 children of both sexes with unilateral cerebral palsy aged ranged 8 up to 10 years. A designed physical rehabilitation program was given to both groups. furthermore, study group received a wii fit virtual reality-based program. Muscle strength, bilateral coordination, running speed and agility were assessed by using Bruininks-Oseretsky test of motor proficiency, 2nd edition (BOT-2) while hip and knee extensor strength were assessed by lafayette hand-held dynamometer pre and post treatment program.

Conditions

  • Cerebral Palsy (CP)

Interventions

DEVICE

Wii-based interactive training program

include step basic, hula hoop, table tilt, jogging, jumping, single limb extension. Single limb extension

OTHER

Traditional physical therapy program

Facilitation of balance reactions from standing position including; standing on balance board, standing on one leg, weights shifting from standing position and stoops and recover from standing,Facilitation of counterpoising mechanism through instructing the child to kick ball from standing position as well as catching and throwing ball with his hands,Gait training activities including: walking on balance board, walking using different obstacles (rolls, wedges, stepper) and walking up and down stairs,Facilitation of protective reaction from standing position by pushing the child in different directions.Facilitation of rising mechanism through changing position e.g.: from lying to standing and from sitting to standing,Strengthening exercises for back and abdominal muscles as well as upper and lower limbs,Jumping in place and jumping a board.
