About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

The rehabilitation process is critical for people with disabilities, and it appears reasonable to predict that adaptive physical activity will become an important instrument for holistic development in a human rights perspective within an ecological framework. To highlight appropriate physical activity and emphasise its importance as a space for social expression while designing rehabilitation and social inclusion procedures, as well as determining what the lines are and how to approach them. Cerebral palsy (CP) refers to a group of mobility and posture abnormalities caused by non-progressive interference in the growing brain.

This randomised controlled trial will recruit patients using non-probability convenience sampling. Data will be gathered from the Pakistan Society of Rehabilitation Sciences (PSRD) and Behaviour and Special Education Services (BASES). Children diagnosed with hemiplegic cerebral palsy will be included. Patients will be placed into two groups: group 1 will receive an adapted physical activity program, while group 2 will receive conventional care/routine physical therapy. Both groups will receive 30-minute sessions per day, three days a week, for six weeks. The study will use pre- and post-test assessments of patients using the Manual Ability Classification Scale, Gross Motor Function Measure, Goal Attainment Scale, and Lower Extremity Functional Scale.The data will be analysed with SPSS version 25 software.
