This project investigates the mechanisms behind joint hyper-resistance in children with cerebral palsy by using computer simulations. It aims to understand how muscle mechanics and reflexes contribute to gait and balance issues, ultimately improving diagnosis and treatment strategies for affected individuals.
Joint hyper-resistance to movement affects 85% of children with cerebral palsy (CP), the most common cause of physical disability in children.
Joint hyper-resistance is an important treatment target in CP.
Yet, its contribution to gait and balance impairments is poorly understood because it has been hard to associate clinical test outcomes to gait and balance deficits.
Here, we will test a novel hypothesis about the mechanisms underlying joint hyper-resistance.
We hypothesize that the neural com…
