Study Details

Study Description

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

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Classic CIMT group

Total session of 6 hours a day, 5 days per week for 3 weeks to Classic CIMT groups will be given.

Other: modified constraint induced movement therapy
Modified CIMT protocol that was based on suggestions made by Dromerick, Edwards, and Hahn (2000) . Modifications were reductions in the duration of mitt wear and massed practice compared with the traditional protocol
Other Names:
  • classic constaint induced movement therapy
  • Experimental: mCIMT group

    Session of 6 hours a day, 5 session per week for first 2 weeks (CIMT), session of 2 hours a day, 5 days per week for last 1 week (BIT) to modified CIMT group will be given.

    Other: modified constraint induced movement therapy
    Modified CIMT protocol that was based on suggestions made by Dromerick, Edwards, and Hahn (2000) . Modifications were reductions in the duration of mitt wear and massed practice compared with the traditional protocol

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Cerebral Palsy Quality of Life CP(QOL) [3 weeks.]

      The Cerebral Palsy Quality of Life for Children (CP QOL-Child) is the first health condition-specific questionnaire designed for measuring QOL in children with cerebral palsy (CP) aged 4-12 years. CP QOL Questionnaires measure include : Social wellbeing & acceptance, Feelings about functioning, Participation & physical health, Emotional wellbeing & self-esteem, Access to services, Pain & impact of disability, Family health

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Kid Screen 27 [3 weeks]

      The KIDSCREEN-27 was developed as a shorter version of the KIDSCREEN-52 with a minimum of information loss and with good psychometric properties. The KIDSCREEN-27 with five dimensions resulted. All five dimensions are Rasch scales: Physical Well-Being (5 items), Psychological Well-Being (7 items), Autonomy & Parents (7 items), Peers & Social Support (4 items), and School Environment (4 items)
