Focus on Function Study for Children With Cerebral Palsy

Category Primary study
Registry of TrialsClinicalTrials.gov
Year 2007
This study will compare two treatment approaches that are currently being used for children with cerebral palsy. Both treatments aim to improve a child\'s function. The two approaches being compared are: 1) improving function by working with the child to improve his/her skills and abilities (\"child-focused\" approach) and 2) improving function by changing/adapting the task and/or environment around the child to improve his/her skills and abilities (\"context-focused\" approach). It is hypothesized that the context-focused approach will significantly improve activity and participation outcomes while leading to no significant decreases in body function and structure outcomes.
