Cerebral palsy spastic hemiplegic

This study tests whether a child-friendly core exercise program, delivered via video, can improve balance and mobility in children aged 6-12 with spastic cerebral palsy. Half of the 54 participants will do the Fun-Core exercises at home 3 times a week for 8 weeks, while the other…

This study tests a program called Therapy Together, where caregivers lead hand therapy exercises for young children with cerebral palsy who have limited use of one hand. The program lasts 8 weeks and aims to improve hand function and daily skills. Researchers will compare these c…

This study tests whether pairing electrical stimulation of the brain's hand area with stimulation of a wrist nerve can improve hand and arm function in adults with hemiplegic cerebral palsy (hCP). Researchers will measure changes in muscle responses and dexterity tasks like movin…

This study tests whether a non-invasive technique called transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS), combined with specific arm and hand exercises, can improve upper limb function in children and young people (ages 12-21) with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. The treatment involves …

This study tests a new therapy called MOBILE to help children with cerebral palsy walk better. Fourteen children will try the therapy for 30 hours over 6 weeks. The goal is to see if the therapy is acceptable and helpful for children and families in a community setting.

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS, followed by intensive arm training, can reduce muscle stiffness (spasticity) in children aged 7–18 with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Twenty participants will receive either real or sham rTMS over 10 da…

This study compares two types of hand therapy for children aged 5-12 with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy, a condition that causes stiffness and weakness on one side of the body. One therapy uses both hands together, the other focuses on the affected hand alone. Over 8 weeks, r…

This study tests a new therapy that combines a brain-computer interface (BCI) with electrical stimulation to help children with cerebral palsy move their arms and hands. Eight children aged 12 to 17 will wear a cap that reads their brain signals, and when they imagine moving thei…

This study tests whether a mixed-reality video game called Bootle Blast can help children aged 6–17 with hemiplegic cerebral palsy improve their arm and hand skills through home-based play. About 46 participants will either start the game right away or wait 12 weeks while continu…

This study looks at whether botulinum toxin type A injections can improve hand and leg function and quality of life in 30 children aged 8 to 17 with spastic hemiparetic cerebral palsy. Participants receive one injection and are followed for 12 weeks. The goal is to see if this tr…

This study tests a structured exercise program called task-oriented circuit training in 34 children aged 5-12 with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. The program includes 14 stations targeting walking, balance, and strength. Researchers will measure improvements in walking distance and d…

This study tests whether adding a robotic glove to standard hand therapy (CIMT) can improve hand dexterity and grip strength in children aged 6-12 with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Half of the 34 participants will receive CIMT alone, while the other half will also use a robotic glo…

This study tests whether adding a special exercise program (kinesiotherapy) to standard physical therapy can improve arm movement and daily living skills in children aged 8-13 with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. 28 children will be split into two groups: one gets kinesiotherapy plus …

This study tests whether adding a mild electrical stimulation to the skin of the affected hand (called SAES) can improve hand function in children aged 6-18 with hemiparesis (one-sided weakness) due to cerebral palsy or stroke. 34 participants will be randomly assigned to receive…

This study looks at 72 children aged 5 to 8 with hemiplegic cerebral palsy to see how well they can use their affected arm and how that relates to their participation in everyday activities. Researchers will measure arm movement quality and compare it to how much the children tak…

This study looks at how a 2-week, personalized therapy program helps children aged 4-12 with conditions like cerebral palsy, autism, or genetic disorders. Kids get about 2.5 hours of tailored therapy each day, focusing on skills like movement, attention, and communication. The go…

This study is working to create better methods for evaluating how children with and without stroke or cerebral palsy use their arms and hands. Researchers will observe 80 children, including those with perinatal stroke and typically developing infants, using video and play-based …
