ABSTRACT
TO FIND OUT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF HAND ARM BIMANUAL INTENSIVE THERAPY (HABIT) ON IMPROVING FINE MOTOR FUNCTION IN CHILDREN WITH SPASTIC CEREBRAL PALSY
Objectives of the study: The main objective of the study is to determine the
effect of hand arm bimanual intensive therapy on improving fine motor function in
children with spastic cerebral palsy.
Methods : Thirty children clinically diagnosed with spastic bilateral hand
dysfunction were taken in the study and given treatment. Treatment duration for
one session is 40 min five days per week for 6 weeks. Patients are selected by
random sampling method and are taken from Department of paediatrics,
Narayana medical college and hospital.
Results: The Result of this study shows that Hand arm bimanual intensive
therapy (HABIT) is effective in improving fine motor function performance scores (p<0.5) in children with spastic cerebral palsy which was measured by PDMS scale.This Study also shows that reduce in Spasticity which was measured by modified by Ashworth scale (Bohannon & Smith).
Conclusion: In this study patients with spastic cerebral palsy showed improvement in fine motor function after using the hand arm bimanual intensive therapy (HABIT)intervention. As patients are advised to perform task-oriented activities like grasping, holding, removing pegs, fine motor skills were improved.
The study was for 6 weeks spasticity showed to be reduced with improved grip. Using modified ashworth scale spasticity was checked and PDMS is used to check fine motor function.
