Abstract

Aim. This study investigates the development of a mechanism for sensory correction in children with spastic bilateral cerebral palsy (GMFCS level II) through a novel technological approach. Materials and methods. The investigation was undertaken at the Sports School of the Olympic Reserve “Rus” and the Central Sports Club of the Army (CSKA) Medical and Sports Center, both located in Moscow. Twenty subjects with spastic (GMFCS II) were selected for participation in this study. Results. The fin­dings underscore the theoretical foundation required for the development of a structured framework for our innovative technology. Utilizing stabilometry and electromyography to assess the applicability of the technology, the outcomes demonstrate a significant reduction in motor unit action potential (MUAP) amplitude by 5.62%, a decrease in maximum amplitude by 3.47%, and a notable reduction in the number of turns within the experimental group by 7.24%. Conclusion. The rehabilitation interventions implemented within this study have demonstrated substantial effectiveness, as evidenced by the stabilometric measurements. Notably, the experimental group exhibited a 6.92% increase in average linear velocity and a 12.93% increase in the rate of change in the ellipse area, indicating a positive impact of the sensory correction mechanism on the motor function of the participants.
