Trunk and arm program for unilateral cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a program designed to improve trunk (core) and arm control in children with unilateral cerebral palsy. It aims to reduce the tendency to lean or compensate with the body, which can help with daily activities.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with unilateral cerebral palsy (weakness on one side of the body).
- You can handle objects with one hand with some difficulty, but not too severe (Level I or II on a hand-use scale).
- You have not received Botox or shock wave therapy in the last 6 months, and none are planned.
- You are not currently in intensive therapy programs (like Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy).
- You do not have serious hip problems, uncontrolled seizures, severe vision issues, or major trouble understanding instructions.

This trial tests a special trunk (core) exercise program for children with spastic cerebral palsy. It is done at home using video calls, and may help improve trunk control and daily activities.
This study looks at how special trunk (core) exercises or positioning affect movement and muscle control in children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP). It may help families understand which trunk-focused interventions improve function and comfort.
This study tests whether special exercises focusing on your trunk (core and back) can improve your arm and hand function, as well as your ability to control your body. It is for teens with cerebral palsy who can walk and speak clearly.
This study tests whether special trunk exercises can help young children with cerebral palsy improve their balance and walking. It compares children who do the exercises with those who get usual care.
This trial tests a therapy called constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) for the legs in children with unilateral cerebral palsy. It aims to improve leg function by encouraging use of the affected leg through structured exercises and activities.
This trial tests a robotic therapy that helps children with cerebral palsy practice sitting balance and reaching safely. It may improve how well your child can control posture and move during functional tasks.
