Effect of Treadmill Gait Training Combined With Conventional Physiotherapy on Gait Performance and Functional Mobility in Children With Bilateral Spastic Cerebral Palsy: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Sponsor: Syeda Khatoon e Jannat Welfare Foundation

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Cerebral palsy is a neurological condition that affects movement, muscle control, and walking ability in children. Children with bilateral spastic cerebral palsy often experience increased muscle stiffness, difficulty with walking, reduced balance, and limited functional mobility. This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate whether treadmill gait training combined with conventional physiotherapy can improve walking ability, gross motor function, balance, and mobility compared with conventional physiotherapy alone. Children with bilateral spastic cerebral palsy will receive a 12-week rehabilitation program, and changes in motor function, gait performance, spasticity, and walking endurance will be assessed before and after treatment.
