Abstract

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between perceived fatigue and perceptions of walking abilities and difficulty in people with cerebral palsy (CP). Twenty individuals with CP (range 10–21y; mean age 14.8y) who usually walk in the community were recruited. Community mobility was assessed using the Functional Mobility Scale. Participants were asked about their walking ability and frequency, perceived effort during walking (using the Children’s Effort Rating Table), and perceived fatigue (using the Fatigue Impact and Severity Self-Assessment). Community mobility, frequency, and perceived effort during walking were significantly related to fatigue. No relationship was found between time spent walking (maximum walking time) and fatigue. Here we demonstrate that perceived fatigue is related to walking in people with CP.

脑瘫患者的步行与疲劳

摘要本研究旨在探讨脑瘫患者的疲劳感与行走能力和困难感之间的关系。招募了20名CP患者（年龄10-21岁；平均年龄14.8岁），他们通常在社区中行走。社区流动性采用功能流动量表进行评估。参与者被问及他们的行走能力和频率、行走过程中感知到的努力（使用儿童努力评分表）和感知到的疲劳（使用疲劳影响和严重程度自我评估）。社区流动性、频率和行走过程中感知到的努力与疲劳显著相关。步行时间（最长步行时间）与疲劳之间没有关系。在这里，我们证明了CP患者的感知疲劳与行走有关。

期刊介绍： Developmental Neurorehabilitation aims to enhance recovery, rehabilitation and education of people with brain injury, neurological disorders, and other developmental, physical and intellectual disabilities. Although there is an emphasis on childhood, developmental disability can be considered from a lifespan perspective. This perspective acknowledges that development occurs throughout a person’s life and thus a range of impairments or diseases can cause a disability that can affect development at any stage of life.
