Using augmented reality to help kids with cerebral palsy be more active
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests if using an augmented reality game on a tablet can help children with cerebral palsy walk and move more each day. It could be an option if your child can walk on their own and doesn't have upcoming leg surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy.
- Your child can walk without help (rated as GMFCS level I or II).
- You and your child speak English or Spanish.
- Your child does not have any leg surgery planned in the next 4 months.
- Your child does not have significant learning delays, hearing loss, or vision problems that would make using a tablet difficult.
- Your child has not had a surgery or broken bone in the past 4 months that affects their ability to be active.
