Official Title: Enhancing Gross Motor Function and Knee Extensor Strength During Loaded Gait Training in Children with Bilateral Spastic Cerebral Palsy: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Brief Summary:
A randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the additional effect loaded gait training to conventional physical therapy program on gross motor function and the knee extensors strength in children with bilateral spastic cerebral palsy.Children were divided randomly into two equal groups.The control group received a conventional physical therapy program, while the intervention group received the same program plus loaded gait training.Gross motor functions and knee extensor strength were measured.
