Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Investigate the effect of wrist wheel exercise on ROM of forearm supination and its reflection on upper extremity functions of children with HCP and Compare between effects of kinesiotaping and wrist wheel on ROM of forearm supination and its reflection on upper extremity functions of children with HCP

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Hemiparetic CP affects one side of the body, typically with marked involvement of the upper extremity, and is associated with reduced selective motor control and limited forearm supination . Hemiparetic child has a significant reduction of the effective use of the arm and hand in ADL (e.g. drinking, eating, accomplishing self-care, combing hair or dressing), and their participation at home, school, and later vocational roles .

Finding a therapeutic modality to improve ROM of forearm supination is an issue of concern in this study as a child uses varying degrees of supination throughout the day to complete simple activities. Some tasks only involve a person to use half of their supination ROM (e.g: clapping hands together) while other activities require a person to supinate through their full ROM (e.g: carrying a lunch tray). Hemiparetic child has limited supination movement, therefore this study will be conducted to investigate and compare between the therapeutic outcomes of kinesiotaping and wrist wheel on ROM of forearm supination which is important for upper extremity functions of the children with HCP.

kinesiotaping

Kinesio tape is the name of an adhesive tape created by Kenzo Kase in Japan in 1973. Kinesiotaping is latex-free with 100% cotton fibers that has no pharmaceutical effect, designed to mimic the elasticity properties of the muscle, skin, and fascia. These properties make it resistant and wearable for a long period, in general, 3 to 5 days at a time; it is even water resistant.

wrist wheel

Wrist wheel is a therapy aid that exercises muscles in the wrist, forearm and shoulder. It utilizes exercises known as pronation and supination moving from pronation to supination exercises is made easy because of the wheel. It allows the patient to easily roll wrist back and forth focusing on the wrist and arm
