摘要: Electrical stimulation (ES) of the hip adductor and abductor muscles simultaneously during functional walking training has never been reported as a management option to improve gait in spastic diplegic children. Objective: To investigate effects simultaneous continuous ES both abductors adductors on characteristics children with cerebral palsy (CP). Subject: Three groups participated this project, study group included three ambulant CP, two control CP healthy Methods: The received different programs. 1st program was one-time trial that an ongoing bilateral at sensory motor level respectively for pre-determined distance. caused light tingling sensation over slight visible contraction abductor. 2nd home last one-week 15 minutes walking, sessions day week. effect programs assessed using walk across (WA) mode ability tests balance master system. Results: obvious improvement performance group. Conclusion: Functional application sensor levels improved CP.
