dc.description.abstract | Objective: To assess the functionality of the affected upper limb in children diagnosed with
hemiplegia aged between 4 and 8 years after applying low-intensity modified Constraint-Induced
Movement Therapy (mCIMT). Methods: Prospective case series study. A mCIMT protocol was
applied for five weeks, with two hours of containment per day. The study variables were quality of
movement of the upper limb, spontaneous use, participation of the affected upper limb in activities of
daily living, dynamic joint position, grasp–release action, grasp strength, supination and extension
elbow movements. Four measurements were performed, using the quality of upper extremity test
(QUEST) scale, the Shriners Hospital for Children Upper Extremity Evaluation (SHUEE) Evaluation,
a hand dynamometer and a goniometer. Results: The sample was composed of eight children with
moderate manual ability. Statistically significant differences were detected in all the studied variables
(p < 0.05) between the pre-treatment and post–treatment results (Week 0–Week 5), except for upper
limb dressing, putting on splints and buttoning up. In the first week, the changes were statistically
significant, except for protective extension, grasp strength, grasp–release and all functional variables
(level of functionality and participation of the patient’s upper limbs) in the SHUEE Evaluation
(p > 0.05). The greatest increase occurred in spontaneous use from Assessment 1 to Assessment 4
(p = 0.01), reaching 88.87% active participation in bimanual tasks. The quality of movement of the
upper limb exhibited a significant value due to the increase in dissociated movements and grasp
(p = 0.01). Conclusion: A low dose (50 h) of mCIMT increased the functionality of children diagnosed
with congenital hemiplegia between 4 and 8 years of age with moderate manual ability. | es |
