Intensive Neurophysiological Rehabilitation System for children with cerebral palsy: a quasi-randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Recent research indicates that intensive rehabilitation tends to be effective for children with cerebral palsy (CP). Intensive Neurophysiological Rehabilitation System (INRS) is a multi-component approach that combines various interventions and addresses different functional goals.. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of the INRS treatment in children with bilateral CP.

Methods

In this quasi-randomized controlled study, 48 children with spastic bilateral CP (age 5-12 years, GMFCS Levels I-IV, MACS Levels I-IV) were assigned to an experimental or control group in order they have been enrolled. The experimental group underwent INRS treatment in the tertiary care facility for about four hours daily for ten days and continued routine home treatment for four
