Özet
Purpose To investigate effect of modified constraint-induced movement therapy (mCIMT) administered on consecutive or intermittent days on upper limb function in children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy (CP). Materials and methods Thirty-three children (age range 5-18 y) with hemiparetic CP separated into three groups: consecutive mCIMT group (n = 11), intermittent mCIMT group (n = 11), control group (n = 11). The outcome measures consist of Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS), Manual Ability Classification System (MACS), Pediatric Balance Scale (PBS), Modified Tardieu Scale (MTS), Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test (JTHFT), Children's Hand Use Experience Questionnaire (CHEQ), Abilhand Kids Questionnaire, surface Electromyography (sEMG). The evaluations were made baseline, 10 days after, 5 weeks after the treatment. Results Improvements were achieved in all groups. The use of upper extremities in daily life activities (p < 0.01), speed of performing the activities (p < 0.001), grasping efficiency (p < 0.001), the amount of a decrease in the children's sense of discomfort while performing activities (p < 0.001) on the affected side in both mCIMT groups were better than the control group. The gain levels in mCIMT groups were similar (p > 0.05). Conclusions Administration of mCIMT on intermittent days facilitate the adaptation of a child, it was concluded to be a more tolerable method and could be more effective.
