|
Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of short_term intensive treadmill training on balance and gait in children with cerebral palsy.
Methods : A total of 20 subjects consisted of 10 fast gait treadmill training groups and 10 normal gait treadmill training groups. Treadmill training without weight support was performed 5 times a week for 20 minutes and 2 weeks. Pediatric Balance Scale (PBS)), Timed up and go test (TUG), and Stride length were used to evaluate the balance and gait before and after intervention.
Result : The results of this study showed that there was a significant difference in both the FTT groups and NTT groups before and after the PBS change (p <0.05), and also between the groups (p <0.05).There were significant differences in the TUG change between the FTT groups and NTT groups before and after the intervention (p <0.05), and between the groups (p < 0.05). Before mediating in comparing stride length changes. There was no significant difference between the two groups (p > 0.05) in the post_comparison comparison and no significant difference (p> 0.05).
Conclusion : Short_term intensive treadmill training in children with cerebral palsy is effective in increasing balance ability and gait function, and FTT affects balance and gait more than normal treadmill training.
