Abstract:
PURPOSE:The best approach to delivering advanced gross motor skills interventions for children with cerebral palsy (CP) is unknown. This study's aim was to assess trial feasibility and compare effectiveness of sports skills movement training (Brain change after Fun, Athletic Sports skills Training [BeFAST]) to conventional lower limb strength training (Brain change after Strength Training focusing ON Gait [BeSTRONG]) for improving advanced gross motor skills of children with CP. METHODS:Twenty independently ambulatory children with CP (mean age 12 ± 2.6 years) were randomly assigned to a 6-week programme of BeFAST or BeSTRONG, individualised to participant goals. Primary scientific outcome measures were the Challenge and Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) assessed pre/post and 4-month post-intervention. Process, resource, and management indicators assessed trial feasibility. RESULTS:There was no between group difference for the Challenge (p = 0.325), however significant post-intervention Challenge improvements were observed in BeFAST (p = 0.031) but not BeSTRONG (p = 0.055). Between group post-intervention scores were higher in BeFAST for COPM Performance (p = 0.001), and relative gains were maintained 4-month post-intervention. Pre-set criteria were met for 84% of feasibility indicators. CONCLUSIONS:Sports skills movement training may be an effective option to support advanced gross motor skill gains and target goals of independently ambulatory children with CP. Trial feasibility, including early evidence of effectiveness, indicates readiness for a full-scale randomised trial. Implications for rehabilitation Children with cerebral palsy have potential to improve advanced gross motor skills. Strength training is a commonly used approach in gross motor therapy programmes. Sports skill training may be an effective option that better targets children's goals.
