“…Compared with STS movement with barefoot, STS movement by using AFO was characterized by increasing ankle dorsiflexion. However, AFO did not change other proximal compensatory patterns of increased trunk forward titling and hip flexion [11]. This finding suggests that conventional AFO could not support STS movement fully in terms of coordinated motion between upper body and lower limbs.…”

Abstract-The purpose of this study is to identify an effective method of support for the standing-up motion of children with cerebral palsy (CP). Experiments revealed remarkable differences in the shank and upper-body motions of children with CP compared with normally developed (ND) children. Shank tilt angles of CP children were smaller and their upper-body tilt angles were larger than those of ND children. The large upper-body tilt compensates for the smaller shank tilt but will cause back pain and/or deformation of the hip joint as they grow. It is therefore imperative to find a method of support to help CP children realize more natural motions (similar to those of ND children) to prevent these problems. The standing-up motion of ND children was adopted as the goal. Experiments identified a similarity in the angular variation between ND children's upper bodies and shanks; the standing-up motion of children with CP under that condition was then simulated using a two-dimensional four-link model of the human body. As a result of the numerical simulation, shank angles of CP children increased and their upper-body angles decreased from those measured during the experiments, which indicates that the proposed method of support is qualitatively effective at allowing CP children to realize a more natural standing-up motion.

“…However, most studies on effectiveness of AFO have focused on gait [6][7][8][9], the effectiveness of AFO on STS movement has limited [10,11]. Compared with STS movement with barefoot, STS movement by using AFO was characterized by increasing ankle dorsiflexion.…”

The purpose of this special report is to present recommendations for the clinical management of children with cerebral palsy, spastic diplegia when increased functional mobility is the identified outcome. These recommendations provide a framework that allows physical therapists to increase their accountability and promote effective interventions for improved patient outcomes. The key components of this special report on clinical management are: a) the Major Recommendations that provide the background and evidence for clinical management; b) a flow chart to assist in clinical decision-making; and c) a Table of Tests and Measures for information on useful tools in the management of children with spastic diplegia. These recommendations are suggestions for clinical management, not an all-inclusive document on physical therapy for children with cerebral palsy. These recommendations may help therapists develop systematic approaches to service delivery and documentation.

“…In recent years, several research studies on motion analysis of STS movement have been reported [4][5][6][7]; particularly, Park's studies have shed some light on CP STS movement [5][6][7]. His first study focused on the kinematic characteristic of STS movement in children with CP, aged 2 to 6, in preambulatory status [5].…”

“…Thus, to have a better understanding of the effect of intervention on STS movement may provide invaluable information for physiotherapists. In terms of intervention, Park has also reported the effect of ankle-foot orthoses (AFO) and botulinum toxin on STS movement [6,7]. However, the effect of physiotherapy (PT) on STS movements has not been clarified.…”
