Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate changes in functional mobility, verified by the Timed Up and Go test, which will be applied in all assessments and reassessments.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate the changes in the concentration of total hemoglobin of the brain verified by the Functional Near- Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS), in addition to the evaluation of the gross motor function verified by specific tests such as the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-66) and Challenge Test, functional evaluation through the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory Computer Adapted Tests (PEDI-CAT) and biomechanical evaluation of gait and postural control, through kinematic and kinetic evaluation.—
