متن کاملEffect of Hand Function Training on Improvement of Hand Grip Strength in Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy in Children
Hand function problems of hemiplegic C.P children are often associated with problems of motor control, sensibility and sensory processing and persistence of primitive grasp reflex. Past studies indicated that simple hand movements with hand splinting can facilitate hand function of children with CP by stimulating the redistribution of brain activity, which accompanies recovery of hand function,...
