An interventional study of Loaded sit-to-stand resistance exercise and Physical activity intervention in Cerebral Palsy and Spastic Diplegia, sponsored by National Taiwan University Hospital. Status unknown at 1 site in Taiwan. Open to participants aged 5 Years to 13 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2012-05-17.
Sponsored by National Taiwan University Hospital · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a 6-month physical activity intervention program on mobility and participation after the termination of a 6-week functional strengthening program for school-age children with spastic diplegia cerebral palsy. The primary outcomes are gross motor function, participation, and physical activity behavior.
704 studies on the registry are indexed under Muscle Spasticity; 149 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 32 is below the median of 36 across 525 interventional studies indexed under Muscle Spasticity.

Exclusion Criteria:
Behavioral: Loaded sit-to-stand resistance exercise · Behavioral: Physical activity intervention
Behavioral: Loaded sit-to-stand resistance exercise
Loaded STS exercise at home, 3 times a week for 6 weeks
The intervention is based on the social cognitive theory and the transtheoretical model. There are two principle components, the individual consultation and the small group PA activities. In the individual consultation, assessment of current stage of readiness for PA will be performed first. Then, individualized, stage-matched feedback will be sent to the participants. Small group PA activities will be held every 2 weeks in order to increase learning opportunity by peer interaction, make exercise fun, and introduce a role model.
