Single-Button Mobility Platform's Effect on Reaction Time and Keystroke Accuracy in Children with Cerebral Palsy

Single-Button Mobility Platform's Effect on Reaction Time and Keystroke Accuracy in Children with Cerebral Palsy: a Pilot Study


Sponsor

University of Seville

Enrollment

4 participants

Start Date

Jan 1, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether the use of a mobility platform can improve response time in children with cerebral palsy. The primary question it seeks to answer is: Can the use of a mobility platform enhance cognitive development in children with severe disabilities? Children are randomly assigned to two equal-sized groups: the control group, where participants will continue with their standard therapy, and the intervention group, where participants will use the mobility platform. Researchers will compare outcomes between the two groups. Participants in the control group will engage in a traditional cause-and-effect therapy, using a video that frequently pauses, requiring them to press an adapted button to continue watching. Participants in the intervention group will use the mobility platform during their sessions. Movement begins when the participant presses the adapted button, and the platform advances, adjusting its direction using sensors to detect obstacles. Once the preset time limit is reached, the platform stops, and the child must press the button again to resume movement. This stop-start process mirrors the cause-and-effect training in the control group.

Interventions

BEHAVIORALIntervention with the Mobility Platform

The experimental arm receives the Intervention with Mobility Platform that is a focus of the study. It aims to analyze the impact of a single-button-operated mobility platform on reaction times and keypress patterns in children with severe disabilities.

BEHAVIORALIntervention with Traditional Therapy

The traditional cause-effect therapies use an animated cartoon video that frequently pauses so that the children have to press an adapted button to continue watching it.
