Relationship Between Gross Motor Coordination and Balance in Children With Spastic Cerebral Palsy (CP) 60

Recruiting
Clinical Trial NCT06531044 (CP) is an observational study for Cerebral Palsy that is recruiting. It started on 6 March 2024 with plans to enroll 60 participants. Led by Sinai University, it is expected to complete by 20 November 2024. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on 31 July 2024.
