Brief Summary: Ataxic cerebral palsy is an abnormal movement or posture pattern accompanied by a loss of coordinated muscle action resulting in movements that lack proper force rhythm or accuracy Ataxic CP is classified into cerebellar ataxia and ataxic diplegia

In Cerebellar Ataxia the cerebellum is hypo-plastic or malformed which impairs the integration of brain signals required for coordinating coordinated movement and balance This study aimed to determine the effect of HABIT-ILE on the balance and coordination of children with cerebellar ataxic cerebral palsy
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

The objectives of this study are

1 To determine the effect of HABIT-ILE on the coordination of children with cerebellar ataxic cerebral palsy
2 To determine the effect of HABIT-ILE on the balance of children with cerebellar ataxic cerebral palsy

HYPOTHESIS

Alternate Hypothesis

There will be statistically significant differences in balance and coordination after HABIT-ILE in ataxic cerebral palsyPgt005

Null Hypothesis

There will be no statistically significant differences in balance and cooordination after HABIT-ILE in ataxic cerebral palsyPgt005

Research Design Experimental study Quasi-experimental

Clinical setting Al-Farabi Special Education Institute Islamabad Study duration one year from Feb 2024 to 2025

Selection Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

1 Age group 6 - 15 years
2 Gender Both males and females
3 Cerebellar Ataxic cerebral palsy 1
4 Gross motor function classification system level I and II
5 Capable of following instructions and completing all necessary tests and tasks

Exclusion Criteria

1 Uncontrolled epilepsy
2 Orthopedic surgery within the past 6 months
3 Have visual hearing impairments diagnosed

Sampling technique convenicence sampling

Outcome Measures

1 Pediatric Balance Scale 2
2 Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia 3
3 Gross Motor Function Classification System - Expanded amp Revised GMFCS - EampR 4

Data analysis techniques

Data will be analyzed using SPSS version 2000

Significance of the study

Cerebellar ataxic cerebral palsy is characterized by hypoplasia or malformations of the cerebellum which hinders the integration of neural information necessary for coordination and balance

HABIT-ILE aims to collectively target the whole body both upper and lower extremity along with trunk in intensive therapy comprising of fun and playful goal oriented tasks in order to improve balance and coordination

So this research will find out effects of HABIT-ILE on balance and coordination of children with cerebellar ataxic cerebral palsy Positive research outcome can contribute to better independence

This study will add data in the limited literature of ataxic cerebral palsy
