Dual task training with balance therapy for children with cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether combining two activities at once (like walking while talking) with special balance stimulation helps children with diplegic cerebral palsy improve their movement and coordination.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with diplegic cerebral palsy (both legs affected more than arms).
- You are between 6 and 12 years old.
- You can walk, even if you need a walker or crutches.
- Your health has been stable for the past 6 months.
- Your parent or guardian agrees to you joining the study.

This study tests a treatment that combines wearing a special suit with doing two tasks at once (like walking while talking) to help children with diplegic cerebral palsy improve their gross motor skills and walking ability.
This study tests whether special balance and movement exercises can help children with spastic diplegia (a type of cerebral palsy affecting the legs) improve their posture and how much energy they use when moving. The therapy focuses on retraining the body's balance system.
This study tests whether doing balance exercises while performing mental tasks together can help stroke survivors improve their stability and walking ability. Many stroke patients struggle with balance, and this training aims to help them regain confidence and reduce fall risk.
This study compares two types of rehabilitation exercises—one focused on balance and one on doing two tasks at once—to see which helps people with Parkinson's disease more. It may help improve your balance and daily activities.
This study tests whether combining balance training exercises with gentle electrical stimulation can help children with one-sided weakness (hemiparesis) improve their balance and movement control. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard therapy alone.
This study tests whether practicing two tasks at the same time (like walking while talking) can improve balance and reduce fall risk in people who have lost one leg above the knee and use a prosthetic limb.
