Pulmonary Functions in Relation to Gross Motor Function Level

Aim: To investigate the relation between forced expiratory volume at first second and peak expiratory flow with gross motor function level in the children with cerebral palsy.

Methods and Procedures: Thirty children with cerebral palsy from both sexes were included in this study. The children ages ranged from 3 to 11 years old.

About this study

Methods and Procedures: Thirty children with cerebral palsy from both sexes were included in this study. The children ages ranged from 3 to 11 years old. Children were evaluated using spirometer to assess forced expiratory volume at first second and peak expiratory flow and gross motor function classification system to assess the functional level.
