Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Forty children with spastic hemiplegic CP, from both genders, were included in this study. They were selected from Outpatient Clinic of Faculty of Physical Therapy, Cairo University.
Inclusion criteria:
Children were enrolled in this study according to the following criteria:
1. The age of the selected children was ranging from 3 to 6 years old .
2. Both genders were included.
3. They were able to follow instructions and understand commands.
4. Degree of spasticity is ranging from 1 to 1+ according to modified Ashworth scale.
5. Postural zone software was assess scapular alignment and pediatric arm function test was assess upper arm function .
Exclusion criteria:
The child was excluded from the study if he / she has one or more of the following:
1. Upper limb surgery in the last 12 months.
2. Children which had contracture, fracture, and fixed deformities in the upper limb.
3. Children with muscleoskletal abnormalities as fixed back deformities.
Methods:
Forty children with spastic hemiparetic cerebral palsy were assessed for scapular alignment using Postural zone software and for upper limb function using pediatric arm function test.
