Gait simulation in children with cerebral palsy using a three-dimensional neuromuscular skeleton model
Cerebral palsy (CP) causes abnormal gait pattern due to increased stretch reflex and contracture in specific muscles. Increased stretch reflexes in CP are caused by increased activation of muscle spindles due to increased sensitivity of gamma motor neurons. Furthermore, these neurological abnormalit...
