Brief summary

my study base on 2groups with total sample size 68 patients .group A conventional physiotherapy group in which the duration of session is 30 mints with 5 mints rest .include soft tissue elogation of tight muscles,lowerlimb resistance exercise,movement transitions balance board standing walking and stair climbing.for group b (conventional physiotherapy and vestibular stimulation exercises)30 mints with 10 mints rest.same physiotherpy exercise re given with vestibular stimulation exercises include swinging in standing in all diection,trampoline jump,rocking movement in rocking chair gaze stabilization exercises and visual pursuit exercises

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Gross motor5 weeksA motor skill is a function, which involves precise movement of muscles with the intent to perform a specific act. Most purposeful movement requires the ability to feel or sense what one's muscles are doing as they perform the act. To measure the gross motor, gross motor function classification system is used. Gross motor function measure: The gross motor skill (sitting walking) of children and young people with cerebral palsy can be categorized into different level using a tool called gross motor function classification scale. Gross motor function scale has total of five levels. Level 1 is the lowest while level 5 is the highest. Higher level means worst outcome
Balance:5 weeksA biological system that enables us to know where our bodies are in the environment and to maintain a desired position. Normal balance depends on information from the inner ear, other senses (such as sight and touch) and muscle movement. To measure the balance, pediatric balance scale is used. Pediatric Balance Scale: The pediatric balance scale is modified version of Berg Balance that is used to assess functional balance skill in school-aged children they have 14 components and a total of 56 score. The minimum score is 0 and 56 is the maximum score. Higher score means good outcome
