Functional Power Training May Help Improve Gait Patterns in Children with Cerebral Palsy, Study Suggests

Functional power training may help improve gait patterns in children with cerebral palsy, but the effects may be small and only detectable at higher walking speeds, a small study has found. The study, “Effects of functional power training on gait kinematics in children with cerebral palsy,” was…

New Device Helps Measure Foot Control in Teens and Young Adults with Cerebral Palsy

Australian researchers are testing a new device to measure foot control in order to improve walking ability for teens and young adults with cerebral palsy (CP). A team led by Shari O’Brien of the University of Queensland’s School of Human Movement and Nutrition Sciences will evaluate if the newly designed…
