Unilateral cerebral palsy

This study tested a 'blended care pirate group' for children aged 2.5 to 8 with unilateral cerebral palsy. The program combines on-site therapy sessions with home-based training, where children wear a sling on their less-affected arm and do play-like activities to improve use of …

This study tests a dual-task training program for children aged 6-8 with unilateral cerebral palsy. About 70 participants will be split into two groups: one doing balance exercises while also performing fine motor tasks, and the other doing single-task exercises. The goal is to s…

This study tested whether an intensive 3-week touch-based therapy program could help children with unilateral cerebral palsy use their affected arm better. Sixteen children aged 6 to 15 took part in 30 hours of therapy plus weekend activities. The goal was to see if this approach…

This study compared a special hand therapy (mCIMT) delivered via video calls to a standard home program in 42 children with unilateral cerebral palsy. The therapy group did one-hour sessions three times a week for six weeks, plus daily activities. The goal was to see if telerehab…

Children with unilateral cerebral palsy often rely on their stronger arm, leaving the weaker arm underused. Constraint-induced therapy forces them to use the weaker arm for hours a day over several weeks, and clinical tests show it improves movement. This study uses wearable sens…

This study tested whether adding 10-15 minutes of leg strengthening exercises before standard physical therapy could improve hand function in 40 children aged 6-8 with unilateral cerebral palsy. The leg exercises targeted the less-affected leg, aiming to trigger brain changes tha…

This study looked at 110 children with unilateral cerebral palsy (CP) to understand how sensory issues—like touch, vibration, and joint position sense—relate to arm and hand motor skills. Researchers tested various sensory functions and motor abilities to find connections. The go…
