Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of backward gait training using treadmill on dynamic balance in hemiparetic C.P children. Thirty hemiparetic C.P children of both sexes were selected from out- patient clinic, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Cairo University. They were classified randomly into two groups of equal number, (A&B); group (A) represented the control group; children in this group received regular physical therapy program based on neurodevelopmental approach used for rehabilitation of such patients. group (B) represented the study group; they received the same regular physical therapy program applied on the control group in addition to 20 min backward gait training using treadmill. The rehabilitation program was conducted for both groups day after day over a period of six successive weeks. Dynamic balance was assessed by using Biodex stability system for both groups conducted before starting physical therapy program, after 3 weeks and 6 weeks of treatment
