Eligibility Criteria

5 Years - 18 Years (Child, Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • willingness to enter the research program and the testing procedures

Exclusion Criteria:

  • uncontrolled epilepsy

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Intensive rehab group

Regular treatment group

Arm Description

A group of children will beneficiate of "HABIT-ILE" treatment in an intensive way (camp) for 90h.

A group of children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy will beneficiate from conventional training at a regular frequency (1 to 6 hours / week) for 90hours.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Impairment, disability, participation
The 3 WHO main domains will be investigated. Impairments will be investigated through force, sensory and manipulation testing (including manipulation with mechanical device). Analysis of lower limb is also included in the protocol. Disabilities will be tested through video-taped assessments and questionnaires. Participation will be assessed through questionnaires.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
A randomized control trial of "HABIT-ILE" therapy compared with regular / conventional intervention (same amount of hours). The protocols have been developed on the basis of bimanual therapy (HABIT) developed at Columbia University.
Detailed Description
A randomized control trial of "HABIT-ILE" therapy at intensive frequency contrasted with regular frequency intervention. The protocols have been developed on the basis of bimanual therapy (HABIT) developed at Columbia University. The intervention takes place either in a 2 weeks day and night camp, either in regular/conventional intervention (1 to 5 hours a week). Children of all groups will benefit from 90h of intensive treatment (children in regular frequency will be crossed over afterwards to benefit from HABIT-ILE. Both in the camp and the regular interventions, there is at least one therapist for each child.
