U.S., April 17 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06930963) titled 'Impact of AFOs on the GMF of Children With CP or ABI' on April 08.
Brief Summary: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) or an acquired brain injury (ABI) are often prescribed ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) to correct impairments of muscles and/or to prevent contractures and bony deformities. The impact of AFOs on gait, and to a lesser extent on gross motor function (GMF), has been investigated. Yet, little is known about their impact on the quality of movement. This study aims to examine how AFOs influence both the quality and capacity of daily functional activities in these children.
