How many hours of training is needed to help children with upper extremity difficulties (due to Cerebral Palsy) achieve their functional goals? It’s lower than you think, with the right strategy!
If you need help determining dosing for children with Cerebral Palsy, read the systematic review of Jackman et al (2020). The authors looked at research on upper limb training to find the minimum dose needed to help children with Cerebral Palsy. They also looked at which type of interventions is more effective, and how much practice at home is needed.
