| Abstract: | BACKGROUND:Cerebral Palsy is a group of disorder in children. It may affect muscle power, coordination & Nerve conduction from brain to body part. Usually CP caused by brain injury, Metabolic issues in pregnant lady and a lot. We must treat the CP Children in earlier stage to improve their activities of daily living. The benefits of giving Physiotherapy are manage the status or restoration of body functions. Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) is one of the popular treatment method in Physiotherapy to enhance the motor activities in affected extremities. The Conventional therapy having three phases are Mobilization, Strengthening & Stretching. AIM & OBJECTIVE: To find out effectiveness of constraint induced movement therapy versus conventional therapy on improvement of upper extremity functions in subjects with spastic cerebral palsy. Methodology: We were selected 30 subjects for the study, who fulfilled the inclusion Criteria. Out of the 30 patients 15 subjects in Group A & remaining 15 subjects in Group B in age group between 7 - 12. Who were affected from spastic CP and also those who scored between 35 - 45 in School Kids Assistive Hand Assessment Score (School Kids-AHA). Group A subjects who selected were treated by Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) and Group B subjects who selected were treated by Conventional therapy for a period of 5 days in all 8 weeks. The pretest and post-test measurement was taken by using Kids-AHA. RESULT: The pretest and post-test mean values of Kids-AHA scored was analyzed using the paired ‘t’ tests. For 14 degrees of freedom and 5% level of significance, the table’s’ value is 2.145 and calculated ‘t’ values are 29.07 for Group A, 20.1 for Group B. Since the calculated’ values were greater than table’s’ value null hypothesis are rejected. The pretest and post-test mean values of Kids-AHA scored was analyzed using the unpaired ‘t’ test. For 28 degrees of freedom and 5% level of significance, the table’s’ value is 2.145 and calculated ‘t’ value is 7.123 for the study. Since the calculated’ value is greater than table’s’ value null hypothesis is rejected. CONCLUSION: This study it can be concluded that both constraint induced movement therapy and conventional therapy are improve to upper extremity functions in subjects with spastic cerebral palsy. As per the study we concluded that constraint induced movement therapy is gives significant improvement than the conventional therapy on upper extremity functions in subjects with spastic cerebral palsy. |
