Cortical reorganization after modified constraint-induced movement therapy in pediatric hemiplegic cerebral palsy.
Constraint-induced movement therapy improves motor function in the affected hand of children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy and results in cortical changes in adults with stroke. This study measured clinical improvement and cortical reorganization in a child with hemiplegia who underwent modified constraint-induced movement therapy for 3 weeks. Clinical, functional magnetic resonance imaging an...
متن کاملEvaluation of cortical plasticity in children with cerebral palsy undergoing constraint-induced movement therapy based on functional near-infrared spectroscopy.
Sensorimotor cortex plasticity induced by constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in six children (10.2±2.1 years old) with hemiplegic cerebral palsy was assessed by functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). The activation laterality index and time-to-peak/duration during a finger-tapping task and the resting-state functional connectivity were quantified before, immediately after, and 6...
متن کاملeffect of modified constraint induced movement therapy on weight bearing and protective extension in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy
background: constraint induced movement therapy is one of the new therapeutic interventions that limits the performance of intact upper limb with increased use of the affected limb. aim of this study was to investigate the effects of modified constraint induced movement therapy on weight bearing & protective extension in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. methods: 21 hemiplegic children ...
متن کاملResting State and Diffusion Neuroimaging Predictors of Clinical Improvements Following Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy in Children With Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy.
The aim was to identify neuroimaging predictors of clinical improvements following constraint-induced movement therapy. Resting state functional magnetic resonance and diffusion tensor imaging data was acquired in 7 children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data were acquired at baseline and 1 month later following a 3-week constraint therapy regimen...
متن کاملStructural Neuroplastic Change After Constraint- Induced Movement Therapy in Children With Cerebral Palsy abstract
Research from the present laboratory with adult stroke patients showed that structural neuroplastic changes are correlated with clinical improvements due to constraint-induced movement (CI) therapy. This pilot study evaluated whether comparable changes occur in children receiving CI therapy. Ten children (6 boys) with congenital hemiparesis (mean age: 3 years, 3 months) underwent MRI scans 3 we...
