Summary

This study tests whether a 12-week functional power training program (MegaPower) helps children with cerebral palsy achieve their personal participation and activity goals better than usual care. The trial will include 66 children aged 4-12 who can walk with or without help. Researchers will measure goal achievement, walking ability, and endurance, and follow up for 24 weeks to see if benefits last.
