Official title
In Vivo Assessment of Quadriceps Muscle Plasticity in Children With Cerebral Palsy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Our primary aim is to determine whether and how muscle architecture of the quadriceps muscles in cerebral palsy (CP) adapts to two separate training programs: traditional strength training (ST) vs. velocity-enhanced training (VT). For the ST group, we hypothesize that muscle size will increase in conjunction with strength. For the VT group, in addition to the above, we hypothesize that fiber length will increase with measures of muscle power. We also hypothesize that walking velocity will improve in both groups but that knee motion and step length will improve only with VT.
