Background: Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the major diseases that lead to severe disability and seriously
impacts the quality of life of children. Infra-low frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (ILF-TMS) is a new
technique of noninvasive brain stimulation that exactly regulates the power of specific neurotransmitters through a
special magnetic field. Our study was in order to investigate the efficacy of ILF-TMS treatment in children with
spastic cerebral palsy.
Methods: 113 spastic cerebral palsic children were randomly divided into two groups: conventional rehabilitation
group and ILF-TMS treatment group, Healthy control group was established at the same time. In conventional
rehabilitaion group, children were treated with conventional rehabilitation treatment; In ILF-TMS treatment group
were treated with ILF-TMS in addit.. View More»
