Scooter board activities for neck and swallowing in children with cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Digestive system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study tests whether scooter board activities can help children with cerebral palsy improve neck control and swallowing. It is for children ages 6 to 10 who have spastic cerebral palsy and some swallowing difficulty.
