ACTIVE STRIDES-CP: Randomised trial of Intensive Rehabilitation (Combined Intensive Gait and Cycling Training) for children with moderate to severe bilateral cerebral palsy [ 7/1/2021 - 6/30/2026 ]

Research Grant

Brief description In Australia, 35,000 people have cerebral palsy, and 40% experience moderate to severe difficulties with movement and reduced participation in physical activity. There are currently no effective interventions for children with moderate to severe CP to improve their ability to move, perform daily life tasks and engage in physically active leisure. We have promising data about a new intervention, called Active Strides-CP, which we will test in 150 children with CP and compare to usual care.
