What this Trial Is About
This study investigates the impact of CIMT, with and without robotic gloves, on hand dexterity and grip strength in children with hemiplegic CP, aiming to enhance motor skills and promote independence in daily activities. Conducted as a randomized controlled trial at DHQ Hospital, Mandi Bahauddin, the study involves two groups of children aged 6-12 with hemiplegic CP. One group of 17 children will receive CIMT alone with standard treatment, while the other 17 will receive CIMT combined with robotic glove assistance. The robotic glove device aids in flexion, extension, and individual finger movements, providing support for both isolated and coordinated finger actions. Each therapy session will last six hours and be held three to five days a week over four to eight weeks.
