Using a locomotor-based field test of anaerobic performance, this study compared the anaerobic performance of children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) who walk without support with that of peers who are typically developing.
The Muscle Power Sprint Test was performed by 159 children with CP (102 boys, mean age 9.7 ± 1.5 years; and 57 girls, mean age 9.5 ± 1.6 years) classified at Gross Motor Function Classification System level I (n = 115) or level II (n = 44) and 376 children with typical development (175 boys, mean age 8.9 ± 1.8 years; and 201 girls, mean age 9.0 ± 1.7 years).
The anaerobic performance of the children with CP was lower than that of peers with typical development.
The difference between the 2 groups increased with height, especially for the children with CP classified at Gross Motor Function Classification System level II. Children with CP appear to have impaired anaerobic performance.
本研究采用基于运动能力的无氧运动现场测试，比较了无需支撑行走的痉挛型脑瘫（CP）儿童与正常发育儿童的无氧运动能力。
159名CP儿童（102名男孩，平均年龄9.7±1.5岁；57名女孩，平均年龄9.5±1.6岁），按粗大运动功能分类系统分为I级（n = 115）或II级（n = 44），与376名正常发育儿童（175名男孩，平均年龄8.9±1.8岁；201名女孩，平均年龄9.0±1.7岁）进行了肌肉力量冲刺测试。
CP儿童的无氧运动能力低于正常发育的同龄人。
两组之间的差异随身高增加，尤其是粗大运动功能分类系统II级的CP儿童。CP儿童似乎存在无氧运动能力受损的情况。
