Summary

The goal of this observational case-control study is to examine the relationship between sensory processing abilities, postural stability, and selective motor control (SMC) in children aged 6-10 years with hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP). The study compares outcomes in children with hemiplegic CP to age-matched typically developing children (TDC). It aims to determine how differences in sensory processing may relate to motor control and balance deficits in this population.

Conditions

  • Cerebral Palsy, Hemiplegic
  • Sensory Processing Disorder
  • Postural Balance
  • Motor Skills Disorders

Interventions

OTHER

Child Sensory Profile 2 (SP2) for Sensory processing abilities

Sensory processing abilities are evaluated using the Child Sensory Profile 2 (SP2), an 86-item caregiver questionnaire assessing six sensory systems (auditory, visual, touch, movement, body position, and oral) and three behavioral domains (conduct, social-emotional, and attentional).

OTHER

HUMAC Balance System for Postural stability evaluation

Postural stability is assessed using the HUMAC Balance System, incorporating tests such as: * The Modified Clinical Test of Sensory Integration of Balance (mCTSIB) * Limits of Stability (LOS) at difficulty levels 4 and 6 * Center of Pressure (COP) metrics

OTHER

Selective Motor Control Evaluation for the upper and lower extremities

Selective voluntary motor control is evaluated using the following tools: * Test of Arm Selective Control (TASC) for the upper extremities * Selective Control Assessment of the Lower Extremity (SCALE) for the lower extremities
