Pediatric Rehabilitation for Children With Cerebral Palsy Through PVT Using AI to Reduce Spasticity

Pediatric Rehabilitation for Children With Cerebral Palsy Through Personalized Vibration Therapy Powered By Artificial Intelligence: An Innovative Approach to Reduce Spasticity and Improved Motor Function and Quality Of Life

The study foucs on pediatric rehabilitation for children with cerebral palsy through personalized vibration therapy powered by artificial intelligence.

Innovative approach to reduce spasticity, improved motor function, quality of life. Vibration therapy reduces spasticity by activating the body's natural stretch reflex, which in turn triggers muscular contractions. Furthermore, it has been proposed that the primary ends of the muscle spindle Ia afferent are stimulated by muscular vibration. This leads to the excitation of alpha motor neurons, subsequent contractions of motor units, ultimately producing a tonic muscle contraction. This study will modify vibration therapy by introducing Artificial intelligence to rehabilitate the patients suffering from spastic CP.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Diagnosed spastic CP as per neurologist report, GMFCS level I-III
• Ability to safely withstand intensity of vibrating device.
• have no planned surgery within 5 months before/after entering the study

Exclusion Criteria:

• A bone fracture within 12 weeks of enrollment.
• History of using anabolic agents, glucocorticoids (excluding inhaled), or growth hormone (regardless of dose) for at least 1 month, within the 3 months prior to enrollment.
• History of botulinum toxin injection into the lower limb(s) within the 3 months before enrollment.
• History of an illness or findings on physical examination that might prevent the child from completing the study (e.g., acute thrombosis, tendinitis).
