Official title
Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) to Improve Gait in CP Short Title
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this proposal is to mitigate the typical decline in walking function experienced by children with cerebral palsy (CP) via a Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES)-assisted treadmill training intervention. In this study, the investigators intend to use thier CP FES Gait Training System to assess the neurotherapeutic effects of an FES-assisted treadmill training intervention on walking performance in children with CP. The research design consists of a randomized, controlled, two-treatment study in which the control subjects will cross-over into one of the two treatment groups. An FES-assisted training group will undergo twelve weeks of FES-assisted treadmill training using a distributive practice protocol consisting of alternating bouts of walking with and without FES assistance, followed by over ground walking reinforcement. A treadmill-only training group will undergo the same training regimen without FES-assistance. Finally, a non-intervention group will serve as a control. The investigators will analyze treatment efficacy via functional and biomechanical and measures collected pre-training, post-training and after a twelve-week follow-up period.
