Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of treatment combining feedforward control and trunk exercise on the integrated ability and activity in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Methods 100 children with CP were divided into control group and observation group, with 50 patients in each group. Patients in control group were treated with routine trunk exercise while patients in observation group were treated with additional feedforward control. The follow-up lasted 6 months. The scores of WeeFIM, GMFM-88, activity of daily living (ADL) and quality of life in two groups before and 6 months after intervention were observed. Results Scores of WeeFIM and GMFM-88 of 6 months after interven tion were higher than those before intervention in two groups respectively(P<0. 05). Scores of WeeFIM and GMFM-88 in observation group 6 months after intervention were higher than those in control group(P<0. 05). Scores of ADL 6 months after intervention in two groups were significantly higher than before intervention respectively (P<0. 05). Score of ADL 6 months after intervention in intervention group was significantly higher than that in control group(P<0. 05). Results of two groups 6 months after intervention were significantly different from their results before intervention. Scores of social function, physiological function, emotional function and total score of PedsQL were higher than those before intervention respectively (P<0. 05). These scores in observation group 6 months after intervention were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion The effectiveness of treatment combining trunk exercise and feedforward control in children with CP was significant. This treatment could improve the motor function, ADL and life quality of patients.
