Robotic Exoskeleton Gait Training for Children With Cerebral Palsy

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether robotic-assisted gait training can improve motor function, walking capacity, joint flexibility, muscle structure, and psychological well-being in children aged 6 to 12 years with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) classified as Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) level IV. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can robotic gait training improve gross motor function and walking ability in children with GMFCS level IV CP? Does robotic training enhance joint range of motion, muscle morphology, and psychological satisfaction in this population? Researchers will compare a robotic gait training group to a usual care group to see if the robotic intervention leads to better physical and psychological outcomes. Participants will: Be randomly assigned to receive either robotic gait training or continue their usual care for 6 months Complete three 45-minute training sessions per week (robotic group only) Undergo physical and psychological assessments at the beginning, midpoint, and end of the study Have their gross motor function, walking ability, joint flexibility, muscle structure, and quality of life measured using validated tools
