Motion capture of the upper extremity during activities of daily living in patients with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy

Highlights ► The ROM of 10 defined ADLs was measured by using motion analysis in adults with hemiplegic CP and able-bodied subjects. ► We correlated the functional handicap in the MACS and the Disability of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand Index (DASH). ► Compensatory mechanisms resulting from limitations in...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights ► The ROM of 10 defined ADLs was measured by using motion analysis in adults with hemiplegic CP and able-bodied subjects. ► We correlated the functional handicap in the MACS and the Disability of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand Index (DASH). ► Compensatory mechanisms resulting from limitations in range of motion were determined. ► During ADLs adults with hemiplegic CP show limitations in range of motion, which are pronounced distally. ► Compensatory mechanisms like an increased trunk movement as well as a strong correlation with the MACS were identified.
