Feasibility of the <i>Challenge</i> Assessment, the <i>Gait Outcomes Assessment List</i> and ‘<i>Moving Together’ (‘Sammen I Bevægels</i>e’), a Group-Based Motor Skills Intervention for Independent School-Aged Children with Cerebral Palsy
收藏资源简介:
This single group pre and posttest study evaluated the feasibility of a new 10-week group-based motor skills enhancement intervention: “Moving Together,” and associated use of the Challenge assessment and Gait Outcomes Assessment List (GOAL). Participant attendance/completion and satisfaction with the assessments and intervention were evaluated, and a first estimate of associated motor skill-related changes obtained. Ten ambulatory children with cerebral palsy (7–14 years) and their parents participated. Ninety percent of Challenge sessions were attended and 82.5% of GOAL questionnaires completed. Program attendance was 83% overall. Satisfaction with assessments was high for the Challenge and moderate for the GOAL, and intervention satisfaction was high. Mean change scores (95% CI) post-intervention for the Challenge and GOAL were 4.2 (−11.4 to 3.1) and 3.6 (−14.4 to 4.0) points (/100) respectively. Challenge and GOAL use was feasible and appropriate for “MovingTogether” and associated with gains in motor skill performance and functional abilities.
