Effects of CLX Exercise on Foot Pressure, Balance and Gross Motor Function in Children with Cerebral Palsy : Case Study

Abstract

Purpose This study examined the influence of elastic band on foot pressure, balance and gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy. Methods This study participate 5 subjects were diagnosed children with spastic cerebral palsy. Baseline and pretest period were not exercise, during intervention period performed for 30 minute, 2 times a week, for 3 months. All subjects were measured with the foot pressure, Gross Motor Function Measure(GMFM) and Pediatric Balance Scale(PBS). Results After intervention, the significant changes were seen in foot pressure(p<.05), there were no significant difference change in the result of PBS and GMFM according to the period. Nevertheless, PBS score increased after intervention and decreased slightly in followup. Likewise, in GMFM, the score increased after the intervention, and it was higher than before the pretest. Conclusion Elastic band exercise was effective in improving foot pressure, balance and gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy.
