Аннотация
PURPOSE: This case report describes the feasibility, acceptance, and satisfaction associated with community-based implementation of a novel upper extremity (UE) training program using a joystick-operated powered ride-on toy with an 8-year-old male child with unilateral cerebral palsy(UCP).
SUMMARY OF KEY POINTS: The 8-session, 1 month training program was feasible to implement in collaboration with the child's caregiver, was enjoyable and well-accepted by the child and his caregiver and associated with improvements in the child's affected UE motor function on participant-report and video-based measures.
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE: Ride-on toys are versatile, easy-to-operate, family-friendly tools that can be used across a variety of naturalistic settings. Intervention programs using joystick-operated ride-on toys may be used to create intrinsically motivating training opportunities to encourage children with UCP to spontaneously use their affected UE for task-oriented sensorimotor exploration of their physical environment and improve movement control in the affected UE.
