Comparison of different methods used in balance evaluation in children with diparetic cerebral palsy.

In this study, we used SLS, TS, PRT for balance evaluations and we investigated reliability and validity (construct and predictive) of each balance tests in childeren with diparetic CP. All tests were sensitive in distinguishing between GMFCS levels I and II, except PRT-Right and PRT-Left. As a result of the study, it was determined that the tests were valid and reliable, suggesting that physiotherapists will provide clinical advantage in order to quickly learn about the balance of children with CP.
