Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate if wearable textile electromyography (EMG) systems could identify differences in muscle activity between children with cerebral palsy (CP) and their typically developing peers during daily activities.
- Results indicated that children with CP had lower EMG levels during maximum muscle contractions compared to both their least affected side and typically developing children, but demonstrated higher relative muscle activity during activities like walking and jumping.
- The findings suggest that these wearable EMG systems are practical for assessing muscle activity in children with CP, highlighting their need to exert more effort during typical activities compared to their peers.
