Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- Children with any musculoskeletal problems, diagnoses other than ASD (such as cerebral palsy, etc.), or those who had previously undergone surgical operations on the lower extremities were not included in the study.
Who the study is looking for
- It was required that the participant be diagnosed with ASD, exhibit TWB, be able to follow simple instructions, have no health problems other than ASD, and not have participated in any exercise program or physical therapy rehabilitation. It has been reported by orthopedic and physical therapy specialists, whom the parents had previously consulted, that the child exhibits TWB with ASD characteristics only, without any musculoskeletal problems.
