High-Intensity Gait Training Intervention for Children With Cerebral Palsy: A Case Series.
Purpose: The purpose of this pilot case series was to describe participation in high-intensity gait training (HIGT) and changes in (1) gait speed/endurance, (2) aerobic capacity, and (3) walking ability in children diagnosed with cerebral palsy (CP).
Methods: Three children with CP participated in HIGT for 5 weeks in lieu of their routine physical therapy. Outcome measures were collected at baseline and post-intervention.
Results: Post-intervention, all had at or above the minimal clinically important difference for 10-m walk test speed and 6-minute walk test distance. Two participants performed above the minimal clinically important difference in 7.5-m shuttle run test level and Gross Motor Function Measure-88 Dimension E score.
Conclusion: This case series demonstrates short-term improvements in the walking outcome measures with participation in HIGT. Further research is needed with a larger and more diverse randomized controlled trial to determine parameters and long-term effects of HIGT in this population.
期刊介绍:
Pediatric Physical Therapy is an indexed international journal, that publishes peer reviewed research related to the practice of physical therapy for children with movement disorders. The editorial board is comprised of an international panel of researchers and clinical scholars that oversees a rigorous peer review process. The journal serves as the official journal for the pediatric physical therapy professional organizations in the Netherlands, Switzerland, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States. The journal includes articles that support evidenced based practice of physical therapy for children with neuromuscular, musculoskeletal, cardiorespiratory and developmental conditions that lead to disorders of movement, and research reports that contribute to the foundational sciences of pediatric physical therapy, ranging from biomechanics and pediatric exercise science to neurodevelopmental science. To these ends the journal publishes original research articles, systematic reviews directed to specific clinical questions that further the science of physical therapy, clinical guidelines and case reports that describe unusual conditions or cutting edge interventions with sound rationale. The journal adheres to the ethical standards of theInternational Committee of Medical Journal Editors.
