Abstract
Objective To observe the effect of sensory integration training on motor function of cerebral palsy children.Methods 42 children with cerebral palsy were divided into two groups,with 22 cases in observation group,20 cases in control group.All children were treated with mainly Bobath technique based rehabilitation therapy,while those of observation group were added sensory integration training for 3 months.We used GMFM-88 to estimate the gross motor function of the two groups.Results After treatment,the scores of GMFM-88 significantly improved in both groups,GMFM scores of the observation group were more effective than thoes of the control group(t =2.481,P =0.018).Conclusion Sensory integration training based on tradition neural movement therapy can improve gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy,can significantly improve the curative effect of rehabilitation.
