Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the early detection and intervention of unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP) in infants to enhance long-term motor skills through a specific therapy called HABIT-ILE.
- Conducted as a randomized clinical trial in Brussels, Belgium, infants aged 6 to 18 months were paired by age and lesion type and assigned to either a treatment group receiving intensive therapy or a control group maintaining usual activities.
- The effectiveness of the therapy was assessed through various motor function metrics, with the primary measurement being the use of the more affected hand, alongside additional evaluations like the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure and Gross Motor Function Measure scores.
Background: Many studies have started integrating virtual reality (VR) into neurorehabilitation for children with cerebral palsy (CP). The results of the effects of VR on motor skill learning, including the short- to long-term results of relevant studies, must be pooled in a generic framework.
Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the short- to long-term effects of therapies including VR on motor skill learning in children with CP.
