Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Impairment, disability, participation

    The 3 WHO main domains will be investigated. Impairments will be investigated through force, sensory and manipulation testing (including manipulation with mechanical device). Analysis of lower limb is also included in the protocol. Disabilities will be tested through video-taped assessments and questionnaires. Participation will be assessed through questionnaires.

Study Arms (2)

Intensive rehab group

EXPERIMENTAL

A group of children will beneficiate of "HABIT-ILE" treatment in an intensive way (camp) for 90h.

Other: "HABIT-ILE"

Regular treatment group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

A group of children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy will beneficiate from conventional training at a regular frequency (1 to 6 hours / week) for 90hours.

Other: "HABIT-ILE"

Interventions

90 h of training with "HABIT-ILE", in an intensive rehabilitation camp compared with a regular therapy program (groups are crossed-over afterwards).

Also known as: Bimanual training, HABIT, neurorehabilitation
