dc.description.abstractObjective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of trunk training on the trunk, upper and lower limb motor functions of children with bilateral spastic Cerebral Palsy. Methods: Thirty-six children were recruited for this study; 19 children were included in the trunk training group and 17 children were included in the control group. Motor functions of the children were assessed by the Trunk Control Measurement Scale, Gross Motor Function Measurement, Quality of Upper Extremity Skills Test, Pediatric Balance Scale, Gillette Functional Assessment Scale, and Impact on Family Scale at baseline and after an 8 week of intervention period. Results: The Trunk Control Measurement Scale (p=0.008), Gross Motor Function Measurement (p=0.047), Quality of Upper Extremity Skills Test (p=0.032), Pediatric Balance Scale (p=0.006), and Gillette Functional Assessment Scale (p=0.011) scores improved in favor of the trunk training group (p<0.05). Conclusions: Individually structured trunk training is a promising method to improve trunk, upper and lower extremity motor functions and activity levels of children with bilateral spastic Cerebral Palsy.
