Abstract:

Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common cause of physical disability in childhood. Multilevel orthopaedic surgery is a key component in the clinical management of musculoskeletal pathologies in CP with the choice of surgical intervention being guided by physical exam, patient history, medical imaging and gait analysis. Clinical 3D gait analysis in particular has become an important diagnostic tool, but these methods do not provide direct objective information to assist with planning of complex surgical procedures. Contemporary approaches use anatomical musculoskeletal models that allow the calc

Abstract:

Turning while walking is a crucial component of locomotion; yet, little is known about how the biomechanics of turning gait differ from those of straight walking. Moreover, it is unclear how populations with restricted gait ability, such as children with cerebral palsy (CP) adapt to turning, compared to their typically developing (TD) peers. Thus, the aims of this thesis were to quantify the biomechanical differences between turning gait and straight walking in TD children and to explore if further, pathology specific, changes present during turning in children with CP.

Abstract:

Cerebral palsy is the most common cause of chronic childhood motor disability and it describes a group of permanent disorders affecting movement and posture. Spasticity is often the dominant motor disorder and it causes secondary musculoskeletal problems that, occurring at multiple levels, affect the quality and efficiency of gait. The instrumented gait analysis is an assessment tool that allows a precise quantification of gait characteristics, through objective data that cannot be appreciated visually. This doctoral thesis provides new evidence on clinically relevant gait parameters for the

Abstract:

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neuromuscular disorder that affects the motor control of muscles. CP children exhibit abnormal walking patterns and frequently develop lower limb, long bone deformities. To improve functionality and guide orthopaedic treatments effectively, it is critical to elucidate the relationship existing between bone morphology and movement of the lower limbs CP children. The hypothesis of this study is that gait abnormalities result in bone deformities. The investigation of this complex relationship represents the core of this thesis.

Abstract:

Cerebral Palsy (CP) refers to a motor disorder that affects approximately one in every 400 live births in the UK. Living with CP can be challenging for both patients and their families. There are a range of established approaches used by physiotherapists to improve motor capacity in children with CP. Staffing and space allocation, however, can limit the number of rehabilitation sessions that can be offered. Treadmill training has been suggested as one approach to address some of these limitations. Walking using a treadmill can maintain or improve movement function, yet questions remain over th

Abstract:

Foot deformities are common in children with cerebral palsy diplegia. One such deformity is midfoot break where movement occurs in the midfoot region during mid to late stance. This deformity is thought to be associated with hindfoot valgus with the abnomial movement in the midfoot contributing to the maintenance of the ground reaction force behind the knee and thus increasing crouch gait (Gage 2004). There are no reports in the literature of any studies examining the link between midfoot break and crouch in cerebral palsy. The two objectives of this study were 1) to provide a descriptor to id

Abstract:

In 1985, a cohort of 14 children with cerebral palsy underwent a neurosurgical procedure - selective posterior rhizotomy - in an effort to reduce their spasticity. They were part of a prospective study in which their gait was analysed before surgery and at one and three years' post-operatively. In 1995, ten years after surgery, there were important questions that needed to be addressed: would their gait be different from the findings before surgery and three years after surgery and how would they compare with age-matched normal subjects?

Relevant information at the right time can be critically important for clinicians when treating patients with cerebral palsy (CP). Gathering this information could be done through the usage of a clinical decision support system with a matching algorithm that finds relevant patients. The relevancy of this information for clinicians is determined by the relevancy of the matched patients. The aim of this thesis was therefore to investigate how an algorithm that matches similar patients with CP could be improved in terms of relevancy.

Background: Advances in modern medicine and a proliferation of high-quality research focused on the prevention, diagnosis and early intervention for children with Cerebral Palsy (CP) have led to remarkable declines in the incidence and severity of CP in high income countries over the past decade.

There is, however, more work to be done to develop safe and effective rehabilitative interventions for children living with CP who are marginally ambulant or non-ambulant

Abstract:

A question which has arisen clinically is the inability to generate adequate vertical force during the second half of the stance phase in cerebral palsy gait. Neither the mechanism nor the consequences of this inability are understood. It implies that the centre of mass (CoM) is inadequately supported with the potential for collapse of the limb in single support. Normal walking is achieved by the sophisticated control of the neuromuscular and skeletal systems with the purpose of advancing the body with minimum energy expenditure. These control systems are affected by damage to the brain in chi

This thesis investigates coordination of the lower limb joints within the limb during walking. The researcher was motivated by her clinical experience as a paediatric physiotherapist. She observed that the pattern of lower limb coordination differed between normal children and those with cerebral palsy. Many of the currently used interventions did not appear to influence this patterning. As a precursor to evaluating the effectiveness of treatments in modifying coordination, a tool to measure coordination was required. The researcher initially investigated qualitative and then quantitative meth

Abstract:

Ankle-foot orthoses are commonly prescribed amongst subjects with diplegic cerebral palsy as a conservative orthotic intervention. Multi-articular and bi-articular muscles are more severely involved in subjects with diplegic cerebral palsy. Appropriate clinical assessment including assessment of these muscles enables optimum ankle-foot orthosis footwear combination (AFO-FC) prescription and any required adjunct therapy. The overarching aim of this thesis was to investigate the effect of optimisation of the temporal midstance shank kinematics with the use of an AFO- FC on several variables incl

Abstract:

Kommunikation är avgörande för att uppnå en god livskvalitet och grundläggande för att kunna förstå andra och göra oss själva förstådda. Grunden för en tillfredsställande kommunikation är att det finns ett samspel mellan de parter som ingår, vilket förutsätter att det sker ett ömsesidigt utbyte mellan samtalsparterna. De funktionsnedsättningar som cerebral pares ofta leder till kan medföra svårigheter för individen att göra sig förstådd. Det saknas idag svenska studier gällande interaktionen hos små barn med grav cerebral pares (CP). Denna studies syfte är att bidra till en ökad kunskap om hur

Abstract:

Disability is a state which questions one’s social standing. Individuals with disability are often seen shunned and sheltered from the society. It is understood that one cannot expect the world to revolve around us, rather we make adjustments to make life smoother. This thesis looks at non-verbal communication strategies within one case study who suffers from Cerebral Palsy and multiple communication needs. The major share of the thesis looks at the multimodal communication where the communication and bodily gestures gain prominence. Cerebral Palsy, in an overview, (CP) is a group of permane

Abstract:

Backgorund: la Paralisi Cerebrale Infantile (PCI) è la prima causa di disabilità fisica nei bambini. Tra gli aspetti motori che risultano compromessi, rientra il cammino, che rappresenta una tappa motoria fondamentale, una conquista di autonomia e indipendenza. Una corretta valutazione della deambulazione in questi soggetti, con strumenti di misura validi, affidabili e sensibili, appare quindi necessaria per poter poi impostare un trattamento efficace e mirato. Obiettivi: mappare la letteratura corrente nell’ambito degli strumenti di misura esistenti per valutare la dimensione del cammino nel
