Brief summary
The aim of our study is to compare the effects of NGT-based trunk training, video-based trunk training and video-based trunk training applied with Theratogs in children with hemiparetic type Cerebral Palsy.
Detailed description
The aim of our study is to compare the effects of NGT-based trunk training, video-based trunk training and video-based trunk training applied with Theratogs in children with hemiparetic type Cerebral Palsy. It is planned to include 45 patients with hemiparetic cerebral palsy between the ages of 5-15 and with Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) level I-III. Patients with cerebral palsy will be divided into 3 groups in a randomized controlled manner. Each group will continue and follow routine physiotherapy and rehabilitation treatments for 8 weeks. Then, structured trunk training will begin. NGT-based trunk training (45 minutes) to the first group, video-based trunk training (45 minutes) to the second group, and Video-based trunk training (45 minutes) will apply with Theratogs to the third group. Treatments will be applied two days a week for 8 weeks.
Interventions

PROCEDUREvideo-based trunk training
Games developed for the use of children with cerebral palsy will be used for trunk training.
PROCEDUREVideo-based trunk training will apply with Theratogs
