Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of imaginary resisted exercises versus physical resisted exercises on hand grip strength in hemiplegic cerebral palsy
Detailed Description: Cerebral palsy CP is one of the most frequent causes of motor disability in children CP is a group of permanent disorders of the development of movement and posture causing activity limitations that are attributed to non-progressive disturbances that occurred in the developing fetal or infant brain The risk factors for CP can be divided into pre-conception prenatal perinatal and postnatal ones Twenty five percent of children with CP have spastic hemiplegia Hemiplegic cerebral palsy falls in anatomic classification of cerebral palsy which affects only one side of body Children who have hemiplegic cerebral palsy have absolutely no use of one side of the body This means their shoulder arm hand leg and foot are all completely paralyzed So in order to improve strength in upper extremity and hand resistance exercises are used

The study will be a randomized control trial Patients will be recruited into two groups using simple random assignment Non probability convenient sampling will be used Data will be collected from patients with hemiplegic cerebral palsy by using Jamar dynamometer which is consider as a gold standard in measuring repetitive gripping goniometer for range of motion and Finger to nose test to access the upper extremity function in stroke patient Those who will meet the inclusion criteria will be recruited Group A will receive imaginary resisted exercise therapy Five types of different resistances will be imagined by patients by watching their own videos in VR box which will be recorded on day one to make them familiar with the resistive objects and the resistance experienced from them by asking patients to perform 15-15 repetitions of each object Group B will receive physical resisted exercise therapy in which 5 different types of resistances will be given to patients for making themselves familiarize themselves with the type of resistance applied by each object that they will experience in further sessions by asking them to perform 15-15 repetitions of each object Every physical resistance exercise will have 15 repetitions At the end of each session patient will perform finger to nose test and Purdue peg board test After collecting data from the defined setting it will be entered and analyzed using statistical package for social sciences SPSS for Windows Software version 21
