Brief Summary

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

Statement of the problem :

Which is more effective for treatment of drooling in children with spastic cerebral palsy; kinesio taping or oromotor training?

Null Hypothesis:

There will be no difference between the effectiveness of kinesio taping and oromotor training on drooling in children with spastic cp.

Detailed Description

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

Subjects:

The Study targets the children with spastic cerebral palsy from both sexes , sample size estimation will be carried out to determine the recruited number of children ,Children participating in this study will be selected randomly from Cairo pediatric physical therapy centers to participate in this study.

Study Design:

A comparative experimental design (Prospective pre-test post-test design with 2 months follow-up evaluation) .

Children will be assessed by measuring the drooling before and after two months of receiving intervention.
