Purpose:
To compare the keep moving together (KMT) protocol between telerehabilitation (Tele KMT) or face-to-face (Face KMT).
Methods:
A randomized controlled clinical trial, including a goal-oriented training program for gross motor function activities for children/adolescents with cerebral palsy. One group will have supervised sessions with a physical therapist through telerehabilitation while the other will have face-to-face sessions. Both groups will receive sessions supervised only by a caregiver 3 times per week, at home. The KMT protocol is for 12 weeks. The primary outcome will be gross motor function using the Gross Motor Function Measure. Secondary outcomes are mobility, goals achieved, participation, caregivers' satisfaction, and adverse events. Impact statement: If effective, the Tele-KMT may be an alternative when face-to-face interventions are not possible.
