Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
functional electrical stimulation and designed physiotherapy program
Children in this group will receive the same training program as control group for 30-minutes in addition to functional electrical stimulation using EV-906 DIGITAL transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation/EMS neuromuscular stimulator device during core stability exercises for 30-minutes 3 sessions/week for 3 months
designed physical therapy program
a one-hour physical therapy program, focusing on abdominal and back muscle activation and improving balance during standing. The program includes exercises like supine on wedges, prone on wedges, weight shifting, and balance training.
core stabilization exercise with neuromuscular electrical stimulation
The text describes various exercises for children to improve their physical abilities. These exercises include bridging, crab, plank, superhero, wheelbarrow walk, and kneeling on balls. The placement of electrodes on the gluteus maximus and rectus abdominis muscles is determined using anatomical landmarks. The electric current is generated using a biphasic symmetrical waveform with pulse width and intensity, and the stimulus frequency is adjusted to 35 Hz. The neuromuscular electric stimulation mode is used in a Synchronous mode.
designed physiotherapy program
Children in this group will receive designed physiotherapy program for 1 hour including core stability exercises focusing on correcting pelvic tilting and standing balance. Each child will participate for 1 hour, 3 sessions/week for 3 months
designed physical therapy program
a one-hour physical therapy program, focusing on abdominal and back muscle activation and improving balance during standing. The program includes exercises like supine on wedges, prone on wedges, weight shifting, and balance training.
