Abstract

Objective To observe the effectiveness of conductive education on motor development of chil- dren with cerebral palsy.Methods A total of 92 children with cerebral palsy were randomly divided into two groups,an experiment group and a control group.Conductive education was used in experiment group and Bobath technique was used in the control group.Motor development quotient and gross motor function measure(GMFM 88) were used to estimate the therapeutic effect.Results Motor development quotient of the 46 children in experiment group was improved highly as same as that of in control group after 6 months training.Gross motor functions of the children in two groups were improved through GMFM 88 detected.Conclusion Conductive education is as effective as the Bobath approach in improving motor function of children with cerebral palsy.
