About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
Hemiplegia in infants and children is a type of Cerebral Palsy that results from damage to the part (hemisphere) of the brain that controls muscle movements. This damage may occur before, during or shortly after birth. The term hemiplegia means that the paralysis is on one vertical half of the body. The aim of this study will be the to know the effect of mCIMT with and without mirror therapy on upper limb function in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. A randomized control trial will be conducted at Sheikh Zayed Hospital, RYK through convenience sampling technique on 30 patients which will be allocated through simple random sampling through sealed opaque enveloped into group A and group B. Group A will be treated with mCIMT and Group B will be treated with mCIMT and mirror therapy. Outcome measure will be conducted through pain and disability questionnaire after 6 weeks. Data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 21. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro - wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups. mCIMT with and without mirror therapy will be applied in patients with hemiplegic cerebral palsy to see the effect on upper limb function.
