Abstract

BackgroundCerebral palsy (CP) refers to a lasting motor impairment resulting from atypical brain development or injury. Aquatic exercise (AE) is frequently utilized as an approach for rehabilitating children with CP because of its appealing water properties.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to examine how AE influences motor skills in children affected by CP.MethodsSystematic searches of databases provided randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published from their inception up until May 22, 2024. The study compared the impacts of AE training with those of routine rehabilitation training (RRT). A random-effects model was employed to assess the aggregated data.ResultsIn total, 491 articles were retrieved, and 15 studies (n = 595 patients) were included in this study. Compared with RRT, AE improved the gross motor function of children with CP (SMD = 7.63, 95% CI 5.79-9.47, P < 0.01), especially in the lying and turning over positions (SMD = 15.66, 95% CI 13.85-17.46, P < 0.01). AE also reduced muscle tension (SMD = -0.75, 95% CI -1.03--0.47, P < 0.01).ConclusionsAE is expected to improve motor function in children with CP. Moreover, this study emphasizes the need for future high-quality related studies to supplement the results and improve the conclusions.

水上运动对脑瘫患儿运动功能的康复效果:随机对照试验的系统评价。
背景:脑瘫(CP)是指由非典型脑发育或脑损伤引起的持续性运动障碍。水上运动(AE)由于其吸引人的水特性,经常被用作康复CP儿童的方法。目的:本研究的目的是研究AE如何影响cp患儿的运动技能。方法:系统检索随机对照试验(rct)数据库,从它们开始发表到2024年5月22日。本研究比较了AE训练与常规康复训练(RRT)的效果。采用随机效应模型对汇总数据进行评估。结果:共检索到491篇文献,纳入15项研究(n = 595例患者)。与RRT相比,AE改善了CP患儿的粗大运动功能(SMD = 7.63, 95% CI 5.79 ~ 9.47, P SMD = 15.66, 95% CI 13.85 ~ 17.46, P SMD = -0.75, 95% CI -1.03 ~ 0.47, P)结论:AE有望改善CP患儿的运动功能,本研究强调未来需要进行高质量的相关研究来补充结果,完善结论。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation is a journal whose main focus is to present relevant information about the interdisciplinary approach to musculoskeletal rehabilitation for clinicians who treat patients with back and musculoskeletal pain complaints. It will provide readers with both 1) a general fund of knowledge on the assessment and management of specific problems and 2) new information considered to be state-of-the-art in the field. The intended audience is multidisciplinary as well as multi-specialty. In each issue clinicians can find information which they can use in their patient setting the very next day.
