NCT ID NCT07613515
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether an 8-week core muscle strengthening program could improve head and trunk control in 38 non-ambulatory children (ages 4-10) with spastic cerebral palsy. Children did 24 therapist-led sessions with exercises like bridging and sitting on a therapy ball. Researchers measured head control, trunk stability, and quality of life at the start, at 4 weeks, and at 8 weeks to see if the program helped.
