What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. To compare the effectiveness of 3 doses of Dysport (5, 10 or 15 Units/Kg/hip) in the management of chronic bilateral hip pain due to cerebral palsy in children/young people.

    Time frame: From baseline to the end of study (week 20)

  2. The primary endpoint will be the change in score in the Paediatric Pain Profile.

    Time frame: From baseline to the week 4 assessment

Secondary outcomes

  1. To compare the effectiveness of 3 doses of Dysport (5, 10 or 15 Units/Kg/hip) in the management of hip pain as assessed by the change in the score of the Paediatric Pain Profile at all other assessment time points.

    Time frame: Weeks 12, 16 and 20

  2. To compare the effect of the different doses of Dysport on sleep pattern and quality as assessed using a sleep diary and sleep questionnaire at all assessment time points.

    Time frame: Weeks 4, 12, 16 and 20

  3. To compare the effect of the different doses of Dysport on oral analgesia intake for hip pain at all assessment time points.

    Time frame: Weeks 4, 12, 16 and 20
