Brief Summary:
Various studies have worked on the sitting balance of cerebral palsy (CP) with Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) level I-III with a sample greater than 30, there is no data available to compare the effect of a balance board and perceptual motor therapy to improve sitting in GMFCS level IV and V with a sample greater than 30. This study will add the authenticity to literature with a large sample size and affect the severity of the condition.
Detailed Description:
This study will compare the effect of balance board therapy and Perceptual motor therapy to improve sitting in children with Cerebral palsy. Previous studies have worked on the sitting balance of cerebral palsy (CP) with Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) level I-III with a sample greater than 30, there is no data available to compare the effect of a balance board and perceptual motor therapy to improve sitting in GMFC level IV and V with a sample greater than 30. This study will add the authenticity to literature with large sample size and affect the severity of the condition. In addition, the patients with diagnosed Cerebral Palsy with GMFCS levels IV and V will be benefited from this study; an exercise program will help them to improve their sitting ability. A total of 88 Cerebral palsy patients will be included by dividing them into two groups (A, B). 1 hour of exercise session will be performed three times per week for 12 weeks with a total of 36 sessions. Both groups will receive 30 minutes of conventional physical therapy. In addition, group A will receive balance board therapy in the remaining 30 minutes while Group B will receive Perceptual motor therapy in the remaining 30 minutes. Data will be collected at baseline, at 4 weeks, at 8 weeks and at 12 weeks after intervention from both groups. The sitting balance will be measured by using Gross Motor Function Measure Scale (GMFM 88) and Trunk Control Motor Scale (TCMS).
