Brief Summary

The purpose of this research is to see the effect of classic constraint-induced movement therapy and its modified form on quality of life of children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Randomized controlled trials with 2-3 weeks follow-up. The sample size is 40. The subjects are divided in two groups, 20 subjects in classical CIMT group and 20 in modified CIMT group. Study duration is of 6 months. Sampling technique applied will be purposive non probability sampling technique. Only 4-12 years individual with hemiplegic cerebral palsy are included. Tools used in the study are Cerebral palsy (quality of life) and Kid Screen 27.

Detailed Description

Both CCIMT and MCIMT are effective treatments to improve quality of life of children with CP. However conflicting evidence is present on which one of these is more effective and no final conclusion can be made to date. This study intends to add to the literature and contribute in reaching final conclusion about the superiority of either intervention. The purpose of this study was to see the psychosocial effect (quality of life) of CIMT and its modified form on HCP
