Walking practice for kids with Cerebral Palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a motor learning program to help children with Cerebral Palsy improve their walking. If your child has a walking goal and a caregiver who can help at home, this could be a good fit.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child has a diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy and can walk with or without help (GMFCS levels I to III).
- Your child has a specific goal about walking that they want to improve.
- Your child is able to understand and follow simple instructions.
- A parent or caregiver can help with a home practice program.
- Your child has not had surgery in the last 6 months, or Botox/baclofen injections in the last 3 months.

This study compares two types of walking exercises to see which one better improves how children with cerebral palsy walk. It may help your child walk more evenly and with less effort.
This study looks at how children with cerebral palsy walk compared to healthy children. Researchers use small sensors to measure movement, and the goal is to better understand walking problems.
This trial tests whether walking practice with real-time feedback (“biofeedback”) can improve how people with cerebral palsy move their legs. It’s designed to help with safer, more efficient walking during treadmill training.
This study tests a program that helps infants stand and walk at home. It may help babies with cerebral palsy—or those at high risk—by improving movement and function in a safe, supported way.
This study tests whether treadmill training, with or without whole-body vibration, can improve walking and movement in children with spastic cerebral palsy. If you qualify, the goal is to see whether this exercise approach is safe and helpful.
This trial uses a smartphone app to measure how children with cerebral palsy walk. It aims to see if phone sensors can help doctors better understand gait problems.
