“…Following the application of the inclusion/exclusion criteria, ten studies were identified for inclusion. These included two small studies with identified adult subjects within broader age samples (Baram and Lenger, 2012;Brochard et al 2009 (Ahlborg et al 2006;Andersson et al 2003; Baram and Lenger, 2012;Dickin et al 2013;Kim et al 2011;Kim et al 2012;Maeland et al 2009;Taylor et al 2013), and two studies evaluated spasticity medication efficacy (Brochard et al 2009;Maanum et al 2011). There were five randomised controlled trials (Ahlborg et al 2006;Kim et al 2012;Maanum et al 2011;Maeland et al 2009;Taylor et al 2013), three non-randomised case-controlled studies (Andersson et al 2003; Baram and Lenger 2012;Kim et al 2011) and two case-series (Brochard et al 2009;Dickin et al 2013).…”

“…Three studies (Baram and Lenger 2012;Dickin et al 2013;Kim et al 2011) evaluated only the immediate effect of a single session of an exercise intervention. Five studies evaluated the effect of an exercise training program delivered twice (Ahlborg et al 2006;Andersson et al 2003;Kim et al 2012;Maeland et al 2009;Taylor et al 2013) weekly, for a total of three, ten or twelve weeks.…”

Blinded manuscript file A systematic review of the efficacy of conservative interventions on the gait of ambulant adults with cerebral palsy Aim: To identify, appraise and synthesize evidence regarding efficacy of conservative interventions (physiotherapeutic, pharmacological) to improve walking in ambulant adults with cerebral palsy (CP). Method: Standard search and extraction methods were utilised. A descriptive synthesis was performed with additional limited meta-analysis where the same outcome measurements were used and clinical heterogeneity was low. Interventions were considered according to target domain (International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health). Results: From 1571 papers identified, 10 met inclusion criteria. Study exclusion was predominantly due to gait not being a target of the intervention, or non-adult age range. Five randomised controlled trials were identified. Interventions were diverse and included strength training, sensory cueing, neurodevelopmental training, whole body vibration and spasticity medication. A small between-group effect on gait speed was found, weighted mean difference 0.09 (95% CI 0.03 to 0.16). Conclusion: Evidence to support efficacy of one physiotherapeutic or pharmacological intervention over another to improve gait in adults with CP is currently limited. Further research is required using standardised gait outcome measures, longer follow up periods and higher quality trial designs.

“…A study of patients with gait disorders due to CP [48] has found that, for patients training with visual feedback, the short-term residual improvement was 21.70% in the walking speed and 8.72%in the stride length. For CP patients training with auditory feedback, the short-term residual improvement was 25.43% in the walking speed and 13.58% in the stride length.…”

Objective: This pilot study aimed to assess whether performance on posturography games correlates with the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) in children with cerebral palsy. Materials and Methods: Simple games using static posturography technology allowed subjects to control screen events via postural sway. Game performance was compared with GMFMs using correlation analysis in a convenience sample of nine girls and six boys with cerebral palsy. Likert scales were used to obtain subjective responses to the balance games. Results: GMFM scores correlated with game performance, especially measures emphasizing rhythmic sway. Twelve of the 15 subjects enjoyed the game and asserted an interest in playing again. Conclusions: Digital posturography games engage children with cerebral palsy in balance tasks, provide visual feedback in a balance control task, and have the potential to increase autonomy in balance control training among pediatric patients with cerebral palsy. This approach can support the relationship between child and therapist. The potential for interactive posturography to complement the assessment and treatment of balance in cerebral palsy bears continuing study.
