Knee Neuromuscular Assessment in Children With Cerebral Palsy

NCT06667518 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 20

Last updated 2025-12-29

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the reliability (intra-rater and inter-rater) of the K-Pull dynamometer and the K-Myo non-invasive electromyography sensor (assessing neuromuscular activity) in the evaluation of the lower limbs in children with cerebral palsy.

Specific objectives include:

* Examining differences in neuromuscular activity among children with CP classified at functional levels I to III on the GMFCS scale.
* Deriving conclusions from the correlation between electromyographic activity, muscle tone, and generated muscle strength.
* Assessing the applicability of neuromuscular activity assessment devices in clinical settings.

Conditions

  • Force Measurement
  • Electromyography
  • Children
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Lower Limb

Interventions

DEVICE

Neuromuscular Activity Assessment

K-Pull dynamometer is an assessment tool used to quantify muscle strength. It uses traction through a non-elastic strap to facilitate isometric contractions. K-Myo (non-invasive EMG sensor) is an assessment tool used to detect muscle activation and tracking patient's improvement.
