Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Selective Control Assessment of the Lower Extremity

    SCALE examines SVMC in children with spastic CP. The SCALE tool assesses hip, knee, ankle, subtalar, and toe joints bilaterally.The SCALE tool assigns each joint a score from 0 to 2 points: 2 points, normal; 1 point, impaired; and 0 points, unable. The SCALE score is the sum of scoresfor each joint and assumes a 10 point maximum per limb.

    15 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS)

    2 minutes

  • Gross Motor Function Measurement (GMFM)

    15 minutes

  • Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS)

    5 minutes

  • The Physicians' Rating Scale (PRS)
