RESUMEN

Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) utilizes a behavioral approach to neurorehabilitation involving constraint of an unaffected upper extremity which forces the use of the affected extremity. There is substantial evidence supporting the effectiveness of CIMT among both children and adults. The purpose of this study was to explore the frequency, intensity, and duration parameters across the published clinical outcomes related to pediatric CIMT (pCIMT) among children and youth populations. A content analysis approach was used to search the following databases Google Scholar, OT seeker, American Occupational Therapy Association special interest section, Medline, EbscoHost, and Cinhal. A total of 141 studies were identified via the initial search, with 51 studies meeting inclusion criteria. The findings revealed that 100% of the studies included restraint of the non-affected upper extremity, 73% incorporated repetitive task-oriented training, but less than half prescribed home practice strategies. Further, only 34% of the studies reviewed included all three components of CIMT. Outpatient hospital clinics and home-based settings were the most utilized settings for research studies. The mean minutes per session was M = 205.53, SD = 164.99. As part of the plan of care, the duration and frequency of therapy both had similar means (~M = 3.60) and standard deviations (~SD = 1.65). There was a significant variance of hours during (SD = 139.54) and outside of therapy (SD = 130.06). The results of this study, together with other emerging evidence, can assist practitioners in prescribing dosages dependent on the setting, the pediatric client, and their current functional status.
