Abstract

Amaç: Serebral palsili (SP) çocukların motor performansı, etkilenim şiddetine bağlı olarak farklı derecelerde bozulmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı hemiparetik ve kuadriparetik SP’li çocukların erken motor repertuarlarını karşılaştırmaktı.
Yöntem: Çalışmada 10 hemiparetik, 22 kuadriparetik SP’li çocuğun düzeltilmiş 3-5 aylık yaşlarda çekilmiş videoları geriye dönük olarak fidgety hareketler, yaşına uygun hareket repertuarı, hareket paternleri, postüral paternler ve hareket karakteri açısından ayrıntılı General Movements analizi ile değerlendirildi. Bu değerlendirmenin sonucunda Motor Optimalite Skorları (MOS) hesaplandı.
Bulgular: Hemiparetik SP grubu doğum kiloları 1055-3140 gram, doğum yaşları 25-39 hafta arasında değişen 5 kız ve 5 erkekten oluştu. Kuadriparetik SP grubu doğum kiloları 660-3570 gram, doğum yaşları 25-40 hafta arasında değişen 14 kız ve 8 erkekten oluştu. Bebeklerin hiçbiri normal fidgety harekete sahip değildi. Hemiparetik SP’li çocukların MOS’ları kuadriparetik SP’li çocuklardan daha yüksekti (p=0.036).
Sonuç: Hemiparetik SP’li çocuklar erken motor repertuar açısından kuadriparetik çocuklara göre daha iyi durumdadır. MOS vücut etkilenimi açısından farklı SP tiplerini tahmin etmede etkin bir değerlendirme yöntemi olabilir.

Comparison of early motor repertoires of children with hemiparetic and quadriparetic cerebral palsy

Abstract

Purpose: The motor performance of children with cerebral palsy (CP) is impaired to varying degrees depending on the severity of the disorder. The aim of this study was to compare the early motor repertoire of children with hemiparetic and quadriparetic CP.
Methods: In the study, videos of 10 hemiparetic and 22 quadriparetic children with CP at corrected 3-5 months of age were evaluated retrospectively with detailed General Movements analysis in terms of fidgety movements, age-appropriate movement repertoire, movement patterns, postural patterns and movement character. As a result, Motor Optimality Scores (MOS) were calculated.
Results: The group of infants with hemiparetic CP consisted 5 girls and 5 boys who changed with birth weights between 1055-3140 grams and gestational ages between 25-39 weeks. The group of infants with quadriparetic CP consisted 14 girls and 8 boys who changed with birth weights between 660-3570 grams and gestational ages between 25-40 weeks. None of the infants had normal fidgety movements. The MOS of children with hemiparetic CP were higher than children with quadriparetic CP (p=0.036).
Conclusion: Children with hemiparetic CP are better in terms of motor repertoire than quadriparetic children. MOS can be an effective evaluation method to predict different types of CP in terms of body involvement.
