Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency (BOTMP)

    All children underwent a series of upper limb assessments, including kinematic analysis and functional measures (primary and secondary outcomes), before the start of the intervention (pretreatment). An occupational therapist blinded to group assignment was trained to administer these measures. All participants underwent these assessments at 4 weeks immediately after intervention (post-treatment), and at 12-week follow-up and 24-week follow-up.

    4 weeks (post-treatment), 12 week, 24 week

  • Peabody Development Motor Scales, subtest fine motor (PDMS-Ⅱ)

    4 weeks (post-treatment), 12 week, 24 week

  • Kinematic analysis

    4 weeks (post-treatment), 12 week, 24 week

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Pediatric Motor Activity Log ( PMAL )

    4 weeks (post-treatment), 12 week, 24 week

  • Pediatric Functional Independence Measure ( WeeFIM )

    4 weeks (post-treatment), 12 week, 24 week

  • Cerebral palsy quality of life (CPQoL)

    4 weeks (post-treatment), 12 week, 24 week
