Modified constraint-induced movement therapy in children with congenital hemiplegic cerebral palsy
… children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP) is constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT). CIMT combines restraint of the less affected upper extremity and intensive exercise with the affected limb. CIMT has been shown to be effective in adults following stroke but it is not clear whether or not …

Constraint induced movement therapy with armeospring pediatric training for children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy
Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) is a therapeutic intervention using constraint of the non-involved limb while a child engages in intense training with hemiplegic extremity. No studies to date have examined the effectiveness of CIMT combined with the Armeo®Spring Pediatric, a robotic …

Brain activation following constraint-induced movement therapy using functional near infrared spectroscopy in stroke patients
Based on the learned non-use theory, constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) is a rehabilitation technique that is utilized with stroke patients to regain function of an affected extremity. CIMT provides patients the resources to help enhance their reliance on an impaired limb while constraining …

An investigation into the use of intensive therapy, with and without constraint-induced movement therapy, in South African children with hemiplegia
… whether a two-week period of intensive physiotherapy in groups, using the Neurodevelopmental Approach or Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT), would result in a functional improvement in the hand function of children with hemiplegia. It also aimed to determine if group CIMT was more …

Modified constraint-induced movement therapy in a day camp for children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy: intervention effects and consideration of personal factors
Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) has been demonstrated to yield functional improvements for children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP); however, many studies have reported inconsistent findings with regards to the extent of the benefits observed following the intervention. This …

Comparison of functional and qualitative data following robot assisted therapy and modified constraint induced movement therapy with sub-acute stroke patients : a pilot randomised controlled trial
… of two UL rehabilitation interventions; modified constraint induced movement therapy (mCIMT) and robot assisted therapy (RAT) as a means to improve stroke survivors’ function and quality of life, the literature thus far has failed to directly compare the effects of each nor fully explore user …

Resting State Functional Magnetic Resonance and Diffusion Tensor Imaging of Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy Patients Treated with Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy: Predictors and Clinically Correlated Evidence of Neuroplasticity
… performing most tasks with their unaffected arm. Constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) directly combats this learned non-use by casting the unaffected arm and forcing the patient to repetitively practice skills with the hemiplegic limb. Subjects with hemiplegic cerebral palsy were recruited …

Využití terapie vynuceného používání paretické horní končetiny u pacientů po cévní mozkové příhodě v ergoterapii
Constraint induced movement therapy is one of many neurorehabilitation methods, based on principle of overcoming the learned non-use phenomenon by a specific therapeutic protocol including some behavioral techniques. A classification of currently available studies on the topic have been made on the …

Upper extremity rehabilitation using interactive virtual environments
… used to enhance depth perception and to present movement targets to the subjects in a 3-dimensional stereo working space. Adaptive online and offline algorithms were developed that provided appropriate task difficulty to optimize the outcomes. A pilot study was done on four stroke patients and …
