Research Abstract |
The present study was investigated the length of time for which the body stays in the same position without any motion in the daily lives of children with severe cerebral palsy using wearable monitors. Also we demonstrated that quantitative evaluation of trunk and pelvic orientation based on 3-D measurement of anatomical landmarks. Children with severe cerebral palsy living at home showed prolonged immobilized posture during night-time sleep when their caregivers would be likely to also be asleep. This suggests the need for postural care assistance at night for these children.
