Efeitos do uso de órtese na mobilidade funcional de crianças com paralisia cerebral

Abstract: RESUMOObjetivo: Comparar o desempenho motor de crianças com paralisia cerebral (PC) em duas condições: com órtese e sem órtese. Métodos: Vinte crianças PC foram avaliadas utilizando-se o teste Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM), a versão modificada da avaliação da marcha Physicians Rating Scale (PRS) e entrevista com os pais para avaliar o uso de órteses na rotina diária. Resultados: O teste ANOVA que foi utilizado para avaliar o efeito do uso órtese na mobilidade das crianças revelou médias significantemente… Show more

“…It must be taken into account that, the child's socioeconomical status may interfere in their classification, as there are children who do not move because they do not have the financial means to afford a wheelchair or other modalities of assistive technology 11,13,18,19 . In the present study, 26 of the 46 children who were unable to walk did not have a wheelchair, a fact that limits locomotion in their own environment, and 37 of the 46 children did not attend school.…”

“…The mobility of these children is often observationally evaluated using standardized scales, including the Physicians Rating Scale (PRS) [5][6][7] and the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) 6,[8][9][10][11] , or by documentation of biomechanical variables, including spatiotemporal gait parameters 10,12,13 . Regardless of the method, the digital camera serves a tool in this process, enabling the performance of patients to be recorded for subsequent analysis.…”

“…A paralisia cerebral (PC) é uma disfunção predominantemente sensório-motora que envolve os distúrbios do tônus muscular, postura e movimentos voluntários, ocasionada por lesões cerebrais, geralmente associadas com hipóxia e/ou anóxia ocorrentes no período de maturação estrutural e funcional do cérebro (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11). Em relação à incidência, observam-se índices de 1,5 a 2,5 para cada mil nascidos vivos nos países desenvolvidos, e de sete para cada mil nascidos vivos em países em desenvolvimento.…”
