OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of mirror therapy (MT) together with taping compared to modified constraint-induced movement therapy (mCIMT) and MT alone on the quality of upper extremity (UE) function, dexterity, and grip strength in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP).
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Sixty children with hemiplegic CP ranging in age from 6 to 8 years were enrolled. The participants were randomly distributed into three groups. The three groups underwent the same suggested upper limb (UL) exercise programme for 1h/5 days/week for 12 successive weeks. Group A performed the programme with MT and taping. Group B performed the same programme using mCIMT alone, while group C performed this programme with MT alone. In addition, the three groups underwent a routine physical therapy programme for 1 h. The quality of UE function, dexterity, and grip strength was measured using the Quality of Upper Extremity Skills Test (QUEST), Box and Block Test (BBT), and hand-held dynamometer before and after 12 successive weeks of treatment.
RESULTS: After treatment, the measurement of all variables in the three groups showed significant improvements with superior effects seen in group A.
CONCLUSIONS: Based on the results obtained in this study, MT with taping, mCIMT alone, and MT alone are good supplements to traditional physical therapy programmes in improving the quality of UE function, dexterity, and grip strength in children with hemiplegic CP with more superior effects seen after using MT together with taping.
