To examine the relationship between Five times sit-to-stand Test (FTSST) and functional tests and investigate the effects of task-specific training on functional ability in children with mild to moderate cerebral palsy (CP).
Twenty-one subjects were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. Motor Assessment Scale (MAS: sit-to-stand), Pediatric Balance Scale (PBS), Functional Reach Test and FTSST were tested before training, after training and at follow-up at 6 weeks post training.
FTSST correlated significantly with MAS (ρ = -0.733) and with PBS (ρ = -0.813) in all children with CP. There were no significant differences in all outcomes between groups. However, FTSST and MAS in children with Gross Motor Function Classification System-Expanded and Revised levels I-II were significantly different between pre and post training within the experimental group (p = 0.03).
FTSST is a reliable and valid functional outcome measure after the task-specific training in children with mild to moderate CP.
研究五次坐立试验(FTSST)与功能测试之间的关系,并调查针对性任务训练对轻度至中度脑瘫(CP)儿童功能能力的影响。
将21名受试者随机分为实验组和对照组。在训练前、训练后以及训练后6周的随访时,对运动评估量表(MAS:坐立)、儿科平衡量表(PBS)、功能性伸展测试和FTSST进行测试。
在所有脑瘫儿童中,FTSST与MAS(ρ = -0.733)和PBS(ρ = -0.813)显著相关。两组之间所有结果均无显著差异。然而,实验组中粗大运动功能分类系统扩展和修订版I-II级儿童的FTSST和MAS在训练前后有显著差异(p = 0.03)。
对于轻度至中度脑瘫儿童,FTSST是针对性任务训练后可靠且有效的功能结果测量指标。
