Reproducibility in measuring physical activity in children and adolescents with an acquired brain injury

TL;DR: Therapists can confidently use accelerometry as a reproducible measure of physical activity under standardized walking and stepping conditions, as well as in the community for children with ABI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of group versus individual physiotherapy following lower limb intra-muscular Botulinum Toxin-Type A injections for ambulant children with cerebral palsy: A single-blind randomized comparison trial

TL;DR: Both groups demonstrated clinically significant improvements in COPM performance and satisfaction, but minimal change in quality of gait (EVGS), which was inadequate to drive clinically meaningful changes in lower limb motor outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Test/retest reliability and inter-rater agreement of the Quality of Upper Extremities Skills test (QUEST) for older children with acquired brain injuries

TL;DR: Test/retest reliability and inter-rater agreement was established on the Quality of Upper Extremities Skills Test (QUEST) for 16 children between 6 and 16 years of age who had an acquired brain injury and some modifications were made to the administration and scoring of the assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-care performance in children with cerebral palsy: a longitudinal study.

TL;DR: To investigate self‐care developmental trajectories in children with cerebral palsy (CP) across all functional ability levels, according to Manual Ability Classification System (MACS) levels, is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

GRIN: "GRoup versus INdividual physiotherapy following lower limb intra-muscular Botulinum Toxin-A injections for ambulant children with cerebral palsy: an assessor-masked randomised comparison trial": study protocol.

TL;DR: This study aims to compare individual to group-based physiotherapy following intramuscular Botulinum Toxin-A injections to the lower limbs for ambulant children with cerebral palsy aged four to fourteen years.
