| description | Objective:
To evaluate the sensory abilities in different type of cerebral palsy (CP)children.
Design:
Retrospective, chart review
Subjects and methods:
This study was conducted at the Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Dow University of Health sciences from January 22, 2011 to March 23, 2011 in a period of 2 month. 60 CP children already diagnosed with required categories (hemiplegia, diplegia and quadriplegia) without mental retardation between the ages from 4-8 years were included in this study after seeking consent from their parents, while CP children (Athetoid, ataxic, dystonic) below 4 years and above 8 years of age and other developmental disorders were excluded. Convenient sampling was used. A standardized questionnaire was developed to assess parent™s perception of their children™s sensory profile. It was a self-reporting questionnaire with five point scoring system. Trained Occupational Therapist assisted parents in filling out the form for the collection of data.
Results:
Data was analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA). The mean age was 5.47Results show that8 out of 38 items have significant value (p 0.05) on Item analysis. Mean value was calculated for each subtypes of CP, therefore classified them according to Dunn criterion on components of short sensory profile. On gender difference significant difference was found on tactile sensitivity, taste/smell sensitivity, under responsive /seek sensation and visual /auditory sensitivity.
Conclusion:
