ABSTRACT

AIM:

To systematically review the evidence for intensive mobility training in cerebral palsy (CP) and to determine the minimum effective dose to improve mobility.

METHOD:

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or quasi-RCTs that included participants with CP, and which used intensive task-oriented training (TOT) mobility interventions and reported mobility outcomes, were included. Five databases were searched; two independent reviewers selected studies and extracted data. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system and the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 tool were used to rate the certainty of evidence at the outcomes level and to determine the risk of bias respectively. Meta-analyses were conducted with clinically homogeneous studies. Threshold dose was analysed through meta-regression.

RESULTS:

Forty-six RCTs with 1449 participants (mean age range 1 year 2 months to 16 years 4 months) were included. TOT had statistically and clinically significant effects on walking speed (p = 0.001), cadence (p = 0.02), gross motor function (p = 0.03), and functional mobility (p = 0.009) compared with control interventions. The threshold dose was undeterminable owing to the high heterogeneity of studies.

INTERPRETATION:

TOT may improve walking speed, walking endurance, and balance. Studies with homogeneous samples and outcomes are needed to support clinical recommendations for intensive mobility interventions.
