Hand therapy with home practice for children with cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a therapy program that combines intensive hand and arm training with a home practice plan to help children with cerebral palsy use both hands together better. It may improve your child's ability to do everyday tasks.
