An electromyographic study of abdominal muscle activity in children with spastic cerebral palsy

An electromyographic study of abdominal muscle activity in children with spastic cerebral palsy

Background: Inadequate knowledge in the recruitment patterns of abdominal muscles in individuals with spastic-type cerebral palsy (STCP). Objectives: To determine whether there is any difference between the neuromuscular activity (activation pattern) of the abdominal muscles in children with STCP an...
