Multiple Approaches of Neuro-Physiotherapy Used for Improving Balance, Normalizing Tone, and Gait Training in a Child With Ataxic Cerebral Palsy: A Case Report.
Curēus 2023 December
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a non-progressive developmental delay disorder that mainly affects children. A strategy for enhancing organizational abilities, including practices based on evidence, and improving outcomes is the base of clinical management in physiotherapy. A seven-year-old girl presented with a history of difficulty walking, standing for extended periods, and performing gross and fine motor movements. MRI revealed generalized atrophy of the cerebellum. The child was managed by medications and physiotherapy. Physiotherapy intervention was based on goal-oriented strategies, which include Rood's approach, constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT), proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF), passive stretching, etc. This goal-oriented program showed an improvement in the treatment outcomes of the child. The child was walking independently with a proper gait pattern and was able to maintain both static and dynamic balance. Initial physical therapy management using integrated methods promotes the achievement of developmental milestones like gross motor skills in ataxic cerebral palsy children.
