O 109 - Post-treatment muscle coordination patterns during gait are highly similar to pre-treatment ones in CP children.

Musculoskeletal models and computational simulations could be of help to clinicians in assessing the most appropriate treatment for a patient with Cerebral Palsy (CP). Simulations trying to predict the functional outcome face the challenge of defining a reliable model of the subject's motor control in the POST-treatment condition, with only the pre-treatment EMG patterns being available to inform about the patient's control.
