Sensation study seeks to unlock hand function in kids with cerebral palsy
NCT ID NCT07352735
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study looks at how touch, vibration, and position sense in the hands and arms affect daily activities in children with cerebral palsy. Researchers will compare 12 children with CP to 12 typically developing kids aged 6 to 15. They use simple tests like tuning forks and monofilaments, plus hand function tasks, to understand the link between sensation and real-world use.
