| description | CP is the foremost cause of motor disability in children and affects two to five children in 1000 live births worldwide. It is
been recognized as a global concern medically, socially, and economically due to the increasing financial burden to the
states. About half of the children with cerebral palsy suffer a range of motion difficulties. The study aims to understand the
role of orthotic devices and its efficacy in the treatment of the patient with cerebral palsy and gait improvement. An online
database of Pubmed, Science Direct, Google Scholar, etc. searched to find the articles with the keywords, cerebral palsy,
orthotic devices, orthosis, lower limb, and results were synthesized and narrated to explore the effectiveness of the devices
on the gait pattern and quality of life of a patient with cerebral palsy. The database search was done without the barrier of
dates and regions. Orthoses applied externally appear to be supported and had a diverse effect on gait depending on the
type of orthosis. However, the relationship between gait pattern and AFOs and ankle properties is yet to be established.
Additional research in this area is needed to complement the development of passive and active AFOs to provide larger
improvements in walking capabilities. |
