Improving Activity in Individuals With Cerebral Palsy

Running, not enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Cerebral Palsy

In brief

Individuals with cerebral palsy are known to have a reduced amount of physical activity; yet, there are no known intervention strategies for improving the number of steps they take each day. This study will use wearable physical activity monitors to assess if behavioral coaching is a viable strategy for combating the reduced physical activity seen in this patient population.
