- Aerobic fitness is a key health indicator, and this study compares aerobic fitness levels in children with cerebral palsy (CP) to their typically developing (TD) peers using a maximal exercise test.* -
- A systematic review included 36 studies involving 510 children with CP and 173 TD peers, revealing a significant difference in peak oxygen uptake (VO) between the two groups, with CP children averaging 32.84 mL/kg/min compared to 45.02 mL/kg/min for TD peers.* -
