NCT04209257
Brief Summary:
The overall goal of the proposed work is to develop and to assess the feasibility of using functional electrical stimulation (FES) system to improve crouch gait in individuals with cerebral palsy that may prevent the typical downward spiral of walking function decline in individuals with CP that occurs from adolescence into adulthood.
Detailed Description:
Aim 1: To assess the feasibility of using a multiple channel FES system to produce an immediate neuroprosthetic effect to reduce crouch gait in children and adolescents with spastic diplegic CP.
Aim 2: To assess the feasibility of using a multiple channel FES system as a therapeutic training tool to produce lasting neurotherapeutic effects of diminished crouch gait in children and adolescents with CP.
