Brief Summary:
Investigate the effect of wrist wheel exercise on ROM of forearm supination and its reflection on upper extremity functions of children with HCP and Compare between effects of kinesiotaping and wrist wheel on ROM of forearm supination and its reflection on upper extremity functions of children with HCP
Detailed Description:
Hemiparetic CP affects one side of the body, typically with marked involvement of the upper extremity, and is associated with reduced selective motor control and limited forearm supination . Hemiparetic child has a significant reduction of the effective use of the arm and hand in ADL (e.g. drinking, eating, accomplishing self-care, combing hair or dressing), and their participation at home, school, and later vocational roles .
Finding a therapeutic modality to improve ROM of forearm supination is an issue of concern in this study as a child uses varying degrees of supination throughout the day to complete simple activities. Some tasks only involve a person to use half of their supination ROM (e.g: clapping hands together) while other activities require a person to supinate through their full ROM (e.g: carrying a lunch tray). Hemiparetic child has limited supination movement, therefore this study will be conducted to investigate and compare between the therapeutic outcomes of kinesiotaping and wrist wheel on ROM of forearm supination which is important for upper extremity functions of the children with HCP.
