摘要
The device for rehabilitation of children with childhood cerebral palsy (CCP) comprises a sleeve/tube (1) made of an elastic material and cuffs made of Velcro strips (2). A frequently occurring problem during rehabilitation of children suffering from CCP is their wrong posture while sitting on the floor. The patients find this position is very comfortable since it provides good stability. However, this results in both wrong position of joints and wrong muscle function being developed, in particular body movement and balance are maintained by means of support on the inside on the foot with the knee being turned inwards. An inverted “knee inward” leg position becomes fixated. The feet become twisted with the big toes pointing outwards, which enhances undesirable changes in the function of the knee and hip joints. The above-mentioned factors reduce the effectiveness of rehabilitation carried out by traditional methods. The proposed device for rehabilitation of children with CCP makes it possible to rectify the aforementioned disadvantages without significantly restricting the patients' mobility. The device is fitted onto the feet of the patient and fixed at the ankles by the cuffs made of Velcro strips (2). The device fixed in this manner on the feet of the patient can stretch with movement. The effect of the device is observed already after a few first months of the use thereof.
