Brief Summary

To analyze the short-term effect of kinesiology taping on sitting postural control in moderate and severe cerebral palsy

Conditions

Cerebral Palsy; Kinesiology Taping; Postural Control

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

• Posture and Postural Ability Scale - T0

  Posture and Postural Ability Scale pre-intervention (PPAS pre). Score from 0 to 7, and the higher the score, the better posture

  pre-intervention

• Posture and Postural Ability Scale - T1

  Posture and Postural Ability Scale post-intervention (PPAS post). Score from 0 to 7, and the higher the score, the better posture

  at 10 days

• Segmental Assessment of Trunk Control - T0

  Segmental Assessment of Trunk Control pre-intervention (SATco pre). Score from 1 to 7, and the lower the score, the better balance

  pre-intervention

• Segmental Assessment of Trunk Control - T1

  Segmental Assessment of Trunk Control post-intervention (SATco post).Score from 1 to 7, and the lower the score, the better balance
