Abstract

A randomised controlled experiment was carried out at DHQ Hospital in Kasur, Pakistan. Thirty children with unilateral spastic cerebral palsy took part in the study. The first group received standard physical treatment, whereas the second group received bimanual training along with routine physical therapy. Follow-ups were performed in the fourth and sixth weeks. The paediatric motor log activity scale and the ABILHAND questionnaire were used to assess daily activities and coordination, respectively.
