Brief Summary

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

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a major cause of motor disability in children. Among these CP children, approximately one third have hemiparetic cerebral palsy. Hemiparetic cerebral palsy is more impairment of one side of the body as a result of non-progressive disturbances in premature brain.To determine the effects of implementing a practice period of modified constraint induced movement therapy in a virtual environment on hand function in chidren with hemiparetic cerebral palsy.

Detailed Description

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

To determine the effects of implementing a practice period of modified constraint induced movement therapy in a virtual environment on hand function in chidren with hemiparetic cerebral palsy.The term Modified constraint-induced movement therapy is a form of rehabilitation therapy that limits the less paretic side, and through repeated and concentrated training improve the upper limb function of the paretic side. Motor imagery is a cognitive process in which a subject imagines that he or she performs a movement without actually performing the movement and without even tensing the muscles. Modified Constraint induced movement therapy can be utilized in both the lower and upper extremities with the motor imagery technique for psychological or occupational therapy and in affecting which one is better for speedy recovery.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

It will be Randomized Controlled Trial in which non probability convenient sampling technique will be used. two groups of 6 to 14 years of age will be formed in which participants will be randomly divided. Group A will be given Modified CIMT and the other group B will receive motor imagery technique on upper limb in hemiparetic CP.

Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

SINGLE

Participants

Participants will get separate treatment protocols and possible efforts will be put to mask the both groups about their treatment.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Modified Constraint Induced Movement Therapy
