most common kind of cerebral palsy, called spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. Some of theusual symptoms include muscular weakness, poor muscle coordination, poor balance, loss ofpostural control, and postural misalignment. The issue is not confined to physical restrictionswhen a person has poor postural instability that makes walking challenging; instead, theperson has increasing psychological challenges and problems. For this study, 30 children withSDCP from the pediatrics physiotherapy OPD and IPD departments at the Shri Guru RamRai Institute of Medical Science and Shri Mahant Indresh Hospital in Patel Nagar, Dehradun,were chosen. For testing, children were randomly split into two groups: one group of 15 kidsreceived standard care alone, while the other group of 15 kids received standard care with theVestibular Stimulation Technique. When the data from both groups are evaluated, there was asignificant difference between them, however group A shows more development. The findingsof the analysis of the data from the PBS and MAS outcome measures are the same for bothoutcome measures. From the data collected it was suggested that the patients will probablyhave benefited more after four weeks of treatment with VST plus conventional therapy thanif conventional therapy were administered alone. Although vestibular stimulation paired withconventional therapy demonstrated a more obvious improvement in clinical results for trunkcontrol, both therapies were proven to significantly improve trunk control of balance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
