| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of rehabilitation on sit-to-stand movement in 8 children with cerebral palsy (CP). In order to assess coordinated movement between trunk and lower limbs in this task, a motion analysis system was used. The angle of trunk tilting after rehabilitation was significantly reduced compared with that before rehabilitation. Hip and knee joints after rehabilitation were locked together in a linear pattern of extension, compared with that before rehabilitation. Moreover, the angleof the ankle joint was significantly increased. We believe that these findings would contribute to not only clarify coordinated movement between trunk and lower limbs to but also develop more efficiency motor development approach for children with CP .
