About this study
Official title: Plyometric Training Versus Strengthening Exercise On Muscle Strength, Selective Motor Control And Quality Of Life In Children With Hemiplegia
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of plyometric training versus strengthening exercise on quadriceps and hamstring muscles and quality of life and selective motor control of lower limb of children with hemiplegia.
Read the detailed description
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of plyometric training versus strengthening exercise on quadriceps and hamstring muscles and quality of life and selective motor control of lower limb of children with hemiplegia.
Hand-Held dynamometer is used to assess the muscle strength of quadriceps and hamstring Selective control assessment of lower extremity scale is used to assess selective motor control of lower limb.
Peds Ql scale is used to assess quality of life of the children. The methods of assessment are valid and reliable.
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Muscle strength
Muscle strength of quadriceps and hamstrings is assessed by Hand-Held dynamometer
Measured: three months
Quality of life of children
Quality of life of children (physical, psychological and social) is assessed by PedsQl scale PedsQl scale scoring from 0-100 scale The higher scores indicate better health related quality of life and lower scores indicate worse health related quality of life
Measured: three months
Selective motor control of lower limb
Selective motor control of lower limb is assessed by selective control assessment of lower extremity scale The scale has 3 grades for each joint (hip, knee, ankle, sub-talar and toes) 0 point : unable
- point : impaired
- points : normal
Measured: three months
