Purpose : The purpose of this research is to find clinical effects of functional resistance training using weighted vest on gross motor and balance abilities of children with dyskinetic cerebral palsy.
Methods : This study selects 3 subjects for 8∼12 years old who were diagnosed with children with dyskinetic cerebral
palsy. The Design is ABA design of single-subject research design. Baseline(A) and TypeⅡ Baseline(A : 12weeks) phases were received with NDT treatment, Intervention(B : 12weeks) phase provided with 40 minute functional resistance training using weighted vest in a session twice a week. In order to analyze the measure results of gross motor function and performan ce,balance abilities in children dyskinetic cerebral palsy during baseline, intervention and typeⅡ baseline phase.
Result : A statistically significant differences in the total GMFM including walking/running/jumping during baseline,
intervention, typeII baseline, but no significant differences in the lying/rolling, sitting, crawling/kneeling and standing. A
statistically significant differences in the total GMPM including dissociated movement, coordination, weight shift, stability
during baseline, intervention, typeII baseline, but no significant differences in the body alignment domains. A statistically
significant differences in the length and surface area ellipse of center of pressure during baseline, intervention, typeII baseline.
Conclusion : The intervention method to facilitate multi-joint and closed kinematic chain movement equipped weighted vest
applied functional resistance training on children with dyskinetic cerebral palsy effectively improve on gross motor function
and performance, balance abilities.
