About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of biofeedback-based inertial sensors gait training on walking parameters in children with hemiplegia. The main question it aims to answer is:
Does biofeedback-based inertial sensors gait training have an effect on walking parameters in children with hemiplegia.
* Participants in the study and control groups will receive 30 minutes designed physical therapy program, three times per week for three successive months. * Children in the control group will receive traditional gait training for 30 minutes, three times per week for three successive months. * Children in the study group will receive 30 minutes biofeedback-based inertial sensors gait training session three times per week for three successive months.
Eligibility criteria
