Daily and Weekly Rehabilitation Delivery for Young Children With Gross Motor Delays

Sponsor: Ohio State University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal frequency and intensity of physical therapy for children with cerebral palsy aged 6 to 24 months of age. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: daily, intermediate, or weekly physical therapy. Short and long term effects will be evaluated to determine the best 'dose' of rehabilitation for children with cerebral palsy, including frequency (number of sessions per week and the number of weeks), intensity (how hard the patient works), and time (how many total hours) of rehabilitation treatment.
