Changes in diffusion tensor tractographic findings associated with constraint-induced movement therapy in young children with cerebral palsy
Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) involves the application of constraint applied to the unimpaired upper limb coupled with intensive training of unimanual skills in the hemiplegic arm (Hoare et al., 2007). CIMT has been studied extensively and found to be effective in the treatment of adult hemiparetic stroke (Sirtori et al., 2009). Several randomized clinical trials performed on children with cerebral palsy (CP) also demonstrated immediate gain in the frequency of use and improved movement efficacy of the impaired upper limb (Deppe et al., 2013; Hoare et al., 2007; Rostami and Malamiri, 2012).
