Advisors: | RAMECKERS, Eugene | Issue Date: | 2019 | Publisher: | UHasselt | Abstract: | Bimanual Intensive Movement therapy (BIMT) has a positive effect on the upper limb function in children with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP), which is mainly limited by muscle weakness. However, research concerning the effect of BIMT on muscle strength of the upper limb in this population is scarce. Therefore, we investigated the effect of BIMT on (functional) muscle strength, manual ability, hand dexterity, occupational performance, and goal achievement in children with UCP. | Notes: | master in de revalidatiewetenschappen en de kinesitherapie-revalidatiewetenschappen en kinesitherapie bij musculoskeletale aandoeningen | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/29250 | Category: | T2 | Type: | Theses and Dissertations |
