Summary of Key Points: A 4-year-8-month-old boy, classified as Gross Motor Function Classification System level IV, had selective dorsal rhizotomy and single-event multilevel surgery. The child began walking training using knee-ankle-foot orthoses and a posterior walker, setting the tasks to be "just right" for improving the child's abilities. Conclusion: At 6 years and 11 months of age, the child walked using bilateral ankle-foot orthoses and crutches at school, and scores improved on the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, Gross Motor Function Measure-66, and Functional Mobility Scale. Recommendations for Clinical Practice: Physical therapists need to carefully select the factors involved in walking training based on an assessment and the difficulty level of each child in order to optimize improvements. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: case study pictorial tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
