Brief Summary

To evaluate the effect of Rhythmic Auditory Stimulation (RAS) on balance in children with cerebral palsy.

Conditions

Cerebral Palsy

Keywords

Cerebral palsy, Rhythmic Auditory Stimulation, Balance

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Timed up and go - in children

  The tool to assess functional mobility in pediatric population. This is a timed measure during which the child has to stand up from a chair, walk 3 m, turn around, walk back, and sit down. Higher timed measure mean worse outcome.

  Change from baseline Timed up and go - in children at after intervention 3 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Pediatric Balance Scale

  Change from baseline Pediatric Balance Scale at after intervention 3 weeks

• Gross Motor Function Measure

  Change from baseline Gross Motor Function Measure at after intervention 3 weeks

• Gait Velocity

  Change from baseline Gait Velocity at after intervention 3 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) group

EXPERIMENTAL

Physical therapy including stretching and strengthening exercise and ambulation training with rhythmic auditory stimulation.

Other: Rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS)

Conventional group

NO INTERVENTION

Conventional physical therapy including stretching exercise, strengthening exercise and ambulation training.

Interventions

Rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) OTHER

A therapeutic application of pulsed rhythmic or musical stimulation in order to improve gait or movement

Rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) group
