Stander Use for an Adolescent with Cerebral Palsy at GMFCS Level with Hip and Knee Contractures.

: Adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP) report high rates of pain and contractures. Standing may positively affect these outcomes, yet there are no published studies on how to accommodate contractures or when a stander is no longer beneficial. This is the first study that answers the question: Can an adolescent with CP and 40-degree knee and/or hip flexion contractures benefit from a standing program, after being non-weight bearing for many years? : A 16-year-old male with spastic tetraplegic CP, Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) level V, used a stander with a "knee and hip contracture system.
