Effects of Leap Motion Controller on Improving Hand Function in Children with Bilateral Spastic Cerebral Palsy
Background and purpose: Cerebral palsy (CP) is a term used to classify children with non-progressive lesions in the developing brain. Bilateral spastic is the most common type of cerebral palsy. Reduced ability to manipulate objects is one of limiting factors in daily activities of these children and its improvements is one of the most important therapeutic goals. The aim of this study was to i...
متن کاملImmediate Effect of Mirror Therapy Using Pegboard Training on Hand Function and Muscle Activities in Individuals with Asymmetrical Hand Function
Objectives: Hand function is critical for daily life and work, especially with the use of electronic devices. This study determined the effect of mirror therapy in individuals with asymmetrical hand function. Method: Forty-two men with asymmetrical hand function were recruited. All participants were randomly divided into two groups: sham control (n = 21) and mirror therapy (n = 21). Both group...
متن کاملDo mirror movements relate to hand function and timing of the brain lesion in children with unilateral cerebral palsy?
AIM This study aimed to systematically map the severity of mirror movements in both hands in a prospective cohort of children with unilateral cerebral palsy, and to explore the relationship with hand function and brain lesion type. METHOD Seventy-eight children were included (41 males, 37 females; age 9y 4mo, SD 3y 1mo, range 5-15y). Mirror movements were scored during three repetitive tasks ...
متن کاملThe "mirror box" illusion: effect of visual information on bimanual coordination in children with spastic hemiparetic cerebral palsy.
The study examined symmetrical bimanual coordination of children with spastic hemiparetic cerebral palsy (SHCP) and a typically developing (TD) control group under conditions of visual feedback created by placing a glass screen, opaque screen or a mirror ("mirror box") between the arms. The "mirror box" creates a visual illusion, which gives rise to a visual perception of a zero lag, symmetric ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Motor Training in Mirror Therapy on Gross Motor Skills of the Affected Hand in Children With Hemiplegia
Objectives: Spastic hemiplegia cerebral palsy is the second type of cerebral palsy among pre-mature infants, which affects the mobility of one side of the body by impairing the brain’s ability to send nerve impulse to the muscles. The present research aims to examine the effect of motor training in mirror therapy on the gross motor skills in Spastic Hemiplegia Cerebral Palsy (SHCP) childr...
