Grip Effects of Power Ball in Children
Condition: Visual Impairment
MeSH terms: Vision Disorders; Vision, Low
Study type: Interventional

Summary: 
      A broad definition of visual impairment includes a wide continuum of visual function loss.
      Aspects of visual function include visual acuity, which is the capacity to resolve detail,
      and accommodation (capacity to concentrate), field of vision (the area that may be seen),
      colour perception, and light sensitivity. A child with cerebral blindness can nevertheless be
      able to perceive motion. There are numerous sources of prevalence information, each of which
      has drawbacks. One of the fundamental pillars of the major worldwide prevention of blindness
      project, VISION 2020 the Right to Sight, is the reduction of visual impairment and blindness
      in children in resource-poor nations. Refraction and poor vision services aid visually
      impaired children, especially those with genetic or congenital ocular defects and enable
      vision improvement.
    

Detailed description: 
      Visual impairment is a broad term that describes a wide continuum of loss in visual function.
      There are many aspects of visual function e.g., visual acuity(ability to resolve
      detail),accommodation (ability to focus), field of vision (area which can be seen), colour
      vision and adapt ability to light. A child with cerebral blindness may have intact perception
      of movement. Prevalence data can be obtained from a variety of different sources, each of
      which has limitations. Reducing visual impairment and blindness in children in resource-poor
      countries is one of the key components of the major global prevention of blindness
      initiative, VISION 2020 the Right to Sight. Visually impaired children especially with
      hereditary /congenital ocular anomalies benefit from refraction and low vision services which
      facilitate vision enhancement and inclusive education. Pediatricians have a key role in early
      detection and multidisciplinary management to minimise the impact of visual impairment (VI)
      in childhood.Visually impaired children especially with hereditary /congenital ocular
      anomalies benefit from refraction and low vision services which facilitate vision enhancement
      and inclusive Powerball® is such a market existing device that can be used for wrist
      rehabilitation and also as a sports aid for strengthening the wrist. The Powerball acts as an
      eccentric exercise tool, generating forces in different directions and thus causing
      stimulation of the forearm, hand, and wrist musculature. The tools used will be handheld
      dynamometer and pegboard test. Study will be conducted on Twenty eight patients in two
      Groups. .Group A will be Control Group that will be provided with conventional physiotherapy
      (isometric hand grip training exercises) and Group B will be Experimental Group that
      Conventional treatment with power ball training. Data will be analyzed using spss 22.0
    

Intervention name(s): Conventional treatment of isometric hand grip training exercises; Conventional treatment along with power ball training
Intervention type(s): Other; Other
Intervention description(s): In control group, conventional treatment perform by using isometric hand grip training exercises (putty grip and squeeze exercise, thumb pinch z strengthening exercises, isometric Hooks exercises, rubber band abduction and c thumb exercises) for 3times a week in one month.; In experimental group, 3sessions per week and total 12 training sessions in a month will be perform. In this session, conventional treatment perform with power ball exercise should be done for 3 minutes in a day, where power ball can initially alleviate the pain, then make them feel strong and in the end persons feel strengthen with pain free movements. Before start training with a power ball, hand held dynamometer will use prior to the first session, on 7th session of training and after 12th training session. So that changes in hand grip strength can be measured by dynamometer.
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention model: Parallel Assignment
Intervention model description: Its a randomized control trial,used to measure the grip strength of visually impared children by powerball.Subjects with visual impairment meeting the predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria will be divided into two groups using random sampling technique
Masking: Single (Participant)
Primary purpose: Other
