Usual customary care

Measures the capacity to retain visual information in use, in a short period of time. It's assessed by hiding a toy in front of the child and asking him/her to find it from 4 possibilities.

Through different simple tasks, measures the visual field, the visuo-motor coordination, the orientation of attention in the space and the eye pursuit.

Evaluates the pressure threshold or the response to a touching sensation of the filament. It is quantified using a numerical grading ranging from high pression/clear touching sensation to a slight pression/slight touching sensation.

The superior pressure threshold will be determined at the moment of any visible change in the child's reaction to the pression made by the algometer.

This parent's filled questionnaire measures a patient's ability to perform daily activities requiring the use of the upper and/or the lower extremities through 43 items specific to patients with cerebral palsy. It ranges from - 7 to +7 logits (higher score means better performance).

This parent's filled questionnaire measures the performance of the child in the daily life activities and movement domains, focusing on the capacity of upper extremities and lower extremities during this activities. It ranges from 0 to 100% (higher score means better performance).

Based in different children's activities, this parent's filled questionnaire evaluates the level of participation and the quality of the environment in which these activities take place. For each type of activity, caregivers assess 3 dimensions of the child's participation: frequency (8-point scale; 0-7), level of involvement (5-point scale; 1-5), caregiver's percent desire for change (2-points level (y/n) transformed in percentage; 0-100) and perceived impact of environmental support (3-point scale transformed in percentage; 0-100). A software calculates the total score with a maximum of 212 (higher score means better performance).

Assesses the parents' perceptions of the care they and their children receive from children's rehabilitation treatment centres. Using a 8-point response scale, parents answer to 20 questions, indicating to what extent they have experienced the events or the situations described. A score of 7 means that they have experienced this aspect to a very great extent, or most of the time. A score of 1 means that they have not experienced this aspect at all. A score of 0 means that the question does not apply to them.

There is no total score. However, because the statements are positively worded, higher total scores indicates that needs of the parents are being met to a great extent.

This is an interview-setting designed to capture a patient's self-perception of performance and satisfaction of it in everyday activities, observed over time. During the interview, parents set up 5 activities considered difficult in daily life. These are then assessed, in a 1 to 10 scale, regarding the child's self-perception of performance and satisfaction of it. The total score is the average of the scores for perception and satisfaction separately (score from 1 to 10; higher score means better performance/satisfaction)

This sequence allows to measure changes in gray matter (cortical thickness)

This sequence allows to measure changes in the fractional anisotropy (FA) on the white matter tracts. FA is a scalar value (no unit) between zero and one that describes the degree of anisotropy of white matter water molecules.

This sequence allows to measure the mean changes in the diffusivity (MD). MD is a scalar value (no unit) between zero and one that describes the degree of molecular diffusion.

Resting-state functional magnetic resonane imaging (rs-fMRI) evaluates the regional interactions that occur during the resting or task-negative state. The magnitud of the brain activation during rs-fMRI will be assessed

Through a 3D motion system, we measure the stride length (meters), step length (meters) and step width (meters).

Through a 3D motion system, we measure cycle of gait time (seconds).

Through a 3D motion system, we measure the stance time (percentage of total gait cycle).

Through a 3D motion system, we measure the swing time (percentage of total gait cycle).

Through a 3D motion system, we measure the gait cadence (stride per minute).

Through a 3D motion system, we measure the gait velocity (meter/second)

Through a 3D motion system, we measure the gait acceleration (meters/second^2)

Through a 3D motion system, we measure the straightness (percentage of upper extremity trajectory during a reaching task).

Through a 3D motion system, we measure the smoothness (variability of the movement during a reaching task)

Through a 3D motion system, we measure the time from onset to end of the task (seconds). the task consist in a reaching task.

With a movement sensor on each wrist, the percentage of total time spent in movement (i.e. crawling, walking and running) is measured. Calculated in terms of the changes in the acceleration (m/s^2). These measurements will be performed during therapy in 5 consecutive days for the HABIT-ILE group and during a regular week for the Usual Care group.
