Effect of Very Early Intervention with Cerebellar Fastigial Nucleus Electric Stimulation on Central Coordination Disturbance / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

@#Objective To observe the effect of very early intervention with cerebellar fastigial nucleus electrical stimulation and neurodevelopmental treatment on infants of central coordination disturbance(CCD).Methods 86 infants(0～6 months)with central coordination disturbance were divided into intervention group and control group.The intervention group was treated with neurodevelopmental treatment,cerebellar fastigial nucleus(FN)electrical stimulation and family interference.The control group was treated with neurodevelopmental treatment and family interference.The effect of infant was assessment with Gross Motor Function Measure(GMFM)and Gesell Development Test after 3 months treatment.Results The total improved incidence of the intervention group was 95.6%,which was significantly higher than that of the control group(P<0.01).The difference of scores in social,adaptive and motor area improved in the intervention group compared with that of control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Very early intervention with cerebellar fastigial nucleus electrical stimulation can facilitate the development of gross motor,social,adaptive capability of infants with CCD treated with neurodevelopmental therapy.
