Effect of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation on Gluteus Maximus and Quadriceps in Cerebral Palsy Children with Crouch Gait
Background: Cerebral palsy (CP) is a persistent disorder of movement and posture caused by non-progressive pathological processes of the immature brain. This is the natural history of the gait disorder in children with more severe diplegia and in the majority of children with spastic quadriplegia. One of the most common movement abnormalities among children with cerebral palsy is a crouched gai...
متن کاملTrunk Kinematic Analysis during Gait in Cerebral Palsy Children with Crouch Gait Pattern
Background: Deficits in upper body movement have received little attention during gait in cerebral palsy (CP) children with crouch gait pattern (CGP).Objective: Purpose of this research is to describe the correlation of trunk movement with the excessive knee flexion and ankle kinematic in CP children with CGP.Methods: Gait analysis data from 57 limbs of diplegic CP children with CGP and 26 limb...
متن کاملEffect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on tibialis anterior in children with cerebral palsy
The aim of this work was to investigate the efficacy of using neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) applied on tibialis anterior in ambulant children with cerebral palsy (CP). The present work was designed as a controlled longitudinal study to compare the effect of treatment with or without NMES applied to 20 ambulant children with diplegic and hemiplegic CP. The stimulation group receive...
متن کاملEffects of Functional Electrical Stimulation on Gait in Cerebral Palsy
Several authors have reported functional and therapeutic benefits after the application of electrical stimulation to children with neurological disorders (1-3). A functional movement can be induced by electrical neuromuscular stimulation of the paralysed muscles with intact excitability of their peripheral innervation. A long-term use of electrical neuromuscular stimulation can strengthen the w...
متن کاملChildren with cerebral palsy: a systematic review and meta-analysis on gait and electrical stimulation.
OBJECTIVE To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis using the International Classification of Functioning to determine the summary effect of electrical stimulation on impairment and activity limitations relevant to gait problems of children with cerebral palsy. METHODS We identified 40 cerebral palsy and electrical stimulation studies, and 17 gait studies qualified for inclusion. Apply...
