Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of sensory integration therapy (SIT) applied in addition to neurodevelopmental treatment (NDT) on Motor Function, Balance, and Trunk Control in diplegia cerebral palsy
Detailed Description:
Cerebral palsy is the most frequent motor disability affecting children. The condition is characterized by problems with postural control and balance, which are due to the central nervous system being compromised by a brain lesion.
In sensory processing, the steps include receiving, organizing, and interpreting sensory information, followed by generating an appropriate response. Children develop motor skills through sensory experiences. Sensory integration therapy leads to enhanced body awareness, motor planning abilities, and coordination between both sides of the body.
Literature studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of sensory integration therapy in improving motor functions in children with diplegia type CP. However, there is a notable lack of research on how sensory integration therapy, in addition to neurodevelopmental treatment (NDT), affects balance and trunk control in these children. This study aims to bridge this gap by evaluating the impact of sensory integration therapy on gross motor function, balance, and trunk control in children with diplegia type CP when used as an adjunct to NDT.
