Clinical Trial: Effect of rESWT Session Frequency on Spasticity and Function Assessed by Sonoelastography in Children With Cerebral Palsy

U.S., March 18 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07476690) titled 'Effect of rESWT Session Frequency on Spasticity and Function Assessed by Sonoelastography in Children With Cerebral Palsy' on Feb. 10.

Brief Summary: Spasticity is a major contributor to functional limitations in children with cerebral palsy. Radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy (rESWT) has emerged as a non-invasive method for reducing spasticity; however, the optimal session frequency remains unclear. This randomized, assessor-blinded, parallel-group controlled trial investigates the effects of different rESWT session frequencies on spasticity, motor function, balance, pain, and muscle properties in children with cerebral pals...
