What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only

Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

Summary

This study tested whether intensive video game-based therapy can improve motor skills and daily living activities in children with cerebral palsy. Sixteen children aged 4-18 were randomly assigned to either video game therapy or standard bimanual therapy for two weeks. Researchers measured changes in gross motor function and daily activity performance before, after, and three months later.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Video game-based therapy (exergames using Leap Motion, Xbox Kinect) and bimanual intensive therapy
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a fun, time-efficient, and cost-effective therapy option to improve motor skills and daily activities for children with cerebral palsy.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 16 participants, so results may not apply to all children with CP. The therapy requires active participation and may not work for everyone.
