Hippotherapy Simulators on Trunk Control and Upper Extremity Functions in Cerebral Palsy 20 Exercise-Based
Clinical Trial NCT06554171 is an interventional study for Cerebral Palsy that is recruiting. It started on 20 August 2024 with plans to enroll 20 participants. Led by Firat University, it is expected to complete by 30 October 2024. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on 15 August 2024.
Brief Summary
The hippotherapy simulator imitates the three-dimensional mechanical movement and walking of the horse and transfers the mechanical effect to the rider during hippotherapy. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exercise program with hippotherapy simulator on upper extremity functions and trunk control of individuals with cerebral palsy.All individuals diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy who agree to partic...Show More
Detailed Description
Cerebral Palsy can be defined as a non-progressive lesion that occurs in the brain that has not yet completed its development and causes activity limitation with movement and posture problems. Although the disorders seen in Cerebral Palsy are not progressive, these individuals may experience losses in their current motor functions in later ages and this may cause losses in their independence and activities of daily l...Show More

ExperimentalHippotherapy group In addition to conventional physiotherapy, training will be given in the Hippotherapy Simulator for 15 minutes a day, 5 days a week for 4 weeks. The hippotherapy simulator serves a wide range of purposes from recreational use that mimics the movements of a real horse or can make similar movements, to fitness, exercise, sports, education and therapy and is suitable for use by individuals with cerebral palsy. | Hippotherapy group In addition to conventional physiotherapy, training will be given in the Hippotherapy Simulator for 15 minutes a day, 5 days a week for 4 weeks.

ExperimentalControl group In addition to conventional physiotherapy, the control group will be allowed to sit in the Hippotherapy Simulature for 15 minutes a day, 5 days a week for 4 weeks. However, the simulator will be kept in closed position to prevent oscillations. | Control group In addition to conventional physiotherapy, the control group will be allowed to sit in the Hippotherapy Simulature for 15 minutes a day, 5 days a week for 4 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measures
Secondary Outcome Measures
| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
Hand Function assessment | Jabson Taylor hand function test will be used. The test measures the accuracy of speed and performance on a variety of grip and release tasks using everyday items. | 2 minutes |
| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
Trunk control assessment | The Trunk Control Measurement Scale (TCMS) will be used to assess trunk control in the participants. The fifteen-item SCS assesses static and dynamic components of the trunk during sitting. | 2 minutes |
Balance assessment | Timed up and go test will be used to evaluate balance. The patient is asked to stand up from the chair without support from the chair, walk 3 m, walk back towards the chair without touching anything and take the sitting position again. The time starts when the patient stands up from the chair and ends when the patient returns to the chair and sits down again. | 2 minutes |
