Although non- progressive, motor impairments develop as the child grows leading to activity and participation restriction.\n\nFor children with CP, body function and structure impairments include changes in muscle tone and strength that affect the ability to control movement, specifically in regard to postural responses, selective control, regulation of activity, ability to learn unique movements, and inappropriate sequencing.(Ross SA,2007)( Ostensjo S, 2004) .\n\nLack of proper loading and maladaptive muscle pulls over time causes the skeletal system to adapt to positions of malalignment, malformation, and overall bone weakness (Beckung E, 2007) (Elbasan B, 2018).\n\nThese changes lead to delays in the natural progression of gross motor skills. As the child falls behind in motor function, they also fall behind in cognitive stimulation and development.( Akaya KU, 2018) . Understanding the anatomical and physiological implications that CP has on the developing child is necessary for physical therapists to treat this population, especially when utilizing electrical stimulation.\n\nSpastic quadriplegia Is a type of cerebral palsy that affects all four limbs and typically involves significant motor impairment. It results from brain damage that occurs before, during, or shortly after birth, affecting the areas of the brain responsible for movement and coordination.\n\nElectrical stimulation is a mode of physical therapy that can be utilized in the treatment of various nerve and muscle injuries, in addition to patients with acute and chronic pain. It involves an electrical pulse applied to a muscle or nerve that activates excitable tissue utilizing internal or external electrodes to build muscle strength, reduce pain, as well as create or support limb movement (Kerr C, 2007).\n\nTask-specific electrical stimulation (TASES) is a therapeutic technique used primarily in rehabilitation settings to enhance motor function. The primary aim of TASES is to facilitate movement and improve motor learning by applying electrical stimulation to specific muscles during targeted tasks.",[26,27,28,29,30],"Cerebral Palsy (CP)","Spastic Cerebral Palsy","Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy","Upper Limb Function","Gross Motor Delay",[32,33,34,35,36],"TASES","Cerebral palsy","Gross motor skills","Upper limb","Task specific electrical stimulation","RECRUITING","2026-03-27",{"date":40,"type":41},"2026-04-01","ACTUAL",{"date":43,"type":41},"2025-05-01",{"date":45,"type":20},"2026-03-29",{"name":47,"class":48},"Kafrelsheikh University","OTHER"]
