Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of sensory integration therapy in reducing sensory, motor, and cognitive developmental impairments following Congenital Brachial Plexus Injury (CBPI), and to support the overall developmental processes of affected children.

Conditions

sensory integration therapy

Sensory Integration Therapy (SIT) is a client-centered rehabilitation approach aimed at improving adaptive and functional responses to sensory stimuli in changing environments. It is based on structured, individualized activities conducted in enriched sensory environments. These environments are designed to be engaging and motivating for children through the use of interactive and playful tasks that match their sensory processing profiles. Sensory integration plays a key role in motor planning, postural control, attention, and emotional regulation. Deficits in sensory integration-particularly in vestibular, tactile, and proprioceptive systems-may result in poor muscle tone, difficulty with balance and coordination, and impaired motor planning. These issues can negatively impact the development of gross motor, fine motor, language, and academic skills. For this reason, sensory-based interventions that support neural organization and promote adaptive responses are commonly recommended i
