The Effects of Dual Task Training Including Eye Movement on Visual Motor Function and Gross Motor Function in the Children with Spastic Cerebral Palsy with Ocular Anomalies : Pilot study

초록

Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of visual motor function and gross motor function, through to conduct dual task training include eye movement into children with spastic cerebral palsy with ocular anomalies. Methods The subjects of this study were 6 children with spastic cerebral palsy with ocular anomalies. The experimental group (n=3) received the dual task training include eye movement and control group (n=3) received the dual task training each for 30 minutes a day, twice a week for 8 weeks. Before and after the intervention were evaluated using VMI and GMFM. Results The results of this study were as follows; First, comparisons of group within VMI and GMFM values are as follows; The experimental group had no significant difference between the VMI and GMFM before intervention and after (p＞.05). But, effect sizes had on effect on the GMFM A (d = 0.6), GMFM D (d = 0.7), GMFM total score (d = 0.5) The control group had no significant difference between the VMI and GMFM before intervention and after (p ＞.05). But, effect sizes had on effect on the GMFM total score (d = 0.6). Second, comparisons between groups after intervention of VMI and GMFM value were as follows; The comparison between groups had no significant difference after intervention of VMI and GMFM all (p > .05). But, effect sizes had an effect on the GMFM C (d = 0.6). Conclusion As a result, the dual task including eye movement goes along for 8 weeks was no significant difference for improving the VMI and the GMFM in children with spastic cerebral palsy with ocular anomalies. However, it gave show that this has been a partial effects. Therefore if the future progress in the study that complement the limitations of the study, it will be considered that there can be obtained a significant result.
