      Webinar Description

      Mattern-Baxter, K., Looper, J., Zhou, C., & Bjornson, K. (2020). Low-Intensity vs High-Intensity Home-Based Treadmill Training and Walking Attainment in Young Children With Spastic Diplegic Cerebral Palsy. Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 101(2), 204-212.. Abstract Objective - To compare the effect of low-intensity (LI) vs high-intensity (HI) treadmill training (TT) on walking attainment and overall walking activity in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Design - Prospective, multisite, randomized controlled trial. Setting - Homes of the participants. Participants - Children with spastic diplegic CP, Gross Motor Function Classification System Level I and II, ages 14-32 months (N=19; male, n=8). Interventions - The children were randomized to LI TT (2×/wk for 6wk) (n=10) and HI TT (10×/wk for 6wk) (n=9). The TT was carried out by the families with weekly instruction by the researchers. Main Outcome Measures - Children were assessed at study onset, post-intervention, and 1 and 4 months post-intervention with the Gross Motor Function Measure Dimension D/E (GMFM D/E), average strides per day and percentage of time spent walking with accelerometers, the Peabody Developmental Motor Scales-2 (PDMS-2), Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Index Mobility Scale, timed 10-m and 1-minute walk test, and Functional Mobility Scale. Blinding was conducted for GMFM D/E and PDMS-2. Linear mixed effects regression models were applied to all outcomes.
