Brief Summary: A randomized control trial examining the relationship between changes in hand function and brain plasticity following intensive therapy Two treatment approaches are used constraint-induced movement therapy CIMT or Hand-Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy HABIT The protocols have been developed at TC Columbia University to be child friendly and draw upon our extensive experience with constraint-induced movement therapy in children with cerebral palsy Our center has been providing interventions camps for children with cerebral palsy since 1998 The interventions are performed in a 15 day day-camp setting with several children and at least one interventionist per child The aim of the intervention is to improve the use of the affected hand and quality of overall movement in a fun social setting PARTICIPATION IS FREE Please check out our website for more information httpwwwtceducenterscit
Detailed Description: Constraint-induced Movement Therapy and Bimanual training are motor-learning based approaches to engage children in fun activities This study looks at what areas of the brain are responsible for recovery after intensive training We are trying to understand how the brain responds to movement training and hope that in the future we can develop new treatments for hemiplegia based on what we learn about the brain in this study

To study the areas of the brain we will use Magnetic Resonance Imaging MRI to take pictures of the brain and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation TMS to determine parts of the brain involved in using the hand TMS uses a brief magnetic field over the scalp by using a wand that looks like a figure 8 The wand can make brief magnetic fields over a series of spots on your childs head to activate the brain cells under the wand Non-invasive single pulse TMS will be used in this study which is considered minimal risk and tolerable to children If your child has a recurrent history of seizures after two years of age heshe might not qualify
