Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

physical coordination is impacted by developmental coordination disorder (DCD), commonly referred to as dyspraxia. It makes a youngster appear to move clumsily and perform worse than expected in everyday tasks for their age. Fine and gross motor coordination issues are a hallmark of this neurodevelopmental disorder. Task-oriented therapies help children with DCD develop their skills, coordination, and manipulative abilities by including them in intentional, goal-directed tasks. This is noteworthy because a child's quality of life can be greatly impacted by these skills, which are essential for everyday tasks like writing, tying shoelaces, walking, and balance. The purpose of the research is to ascertain how task-oriented upper limb intervention affects children with impaired coordination and hand-eye coordination.
