First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a home-based therapy program that uses sensors to help children with cerebral palsy improve the use of their arms and hands. The therapy, called Tele-HABIT, involves structured play activities done at home under remote guidance. The trial included 29 children aged 6 to 12 and measured changes in how well they could use their affected hand. The goal is to provide an effective therapy option that families can do from home.
