Arms and Interventions

| Participant Group/Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
| --- | --- |
| Experimental: video game in CP children (pilot study)<br>The cerebral palsy children will play the engineer-built system, video-game based Kinect sensor 3 times/week for 5 weeks. Each session will last for 40 minutes. The video-game Kinect sensor was developed by the researcher team. | Device: the engineer-built system, video-game based Kinect sensor<br>* The engineer-built system, video-game based Kinect sensor was developed by the researcher team.<br>|

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Range of Motion | The range or motion of shoulder, elbow and wrist will be assessed by goniometer. The assessment will be done before starting the intervention as the baseline and then after finishing the intervention to detect change of range of motion from the the baseline. The range of motion will be reported in degrees. | before starting the intervention and after finishing the intervention within 1 week | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Box and block test | The name 'box and block test' is an unabbreviated scale title. The minimum score is zero and the maximum score is infinity. | before starting the intervention and after finishing the intervention within 1 week | 
| ABILHANDS-Kids | The ABILHANDS-kids is the name of the test. It is not an unabbreviated name. The children will be asked the difficulty of doing their activities of daily living by using 21 questionnaires. The rating of difficulties were impossible, difficult and easy. Then the rating would be score as impossible=0, difficult=1 and easy = 2. The analysis of the score of there items will use the Rasch analysis which it is available online on http://rssandbox.iescagilly.be/ abilhand-kids-cerebral-palsy-en.html. The minimum score means a worse outcome and the maximum score means the better outcome. | before starting the intervention and after finishing the intervention within 1 week | 
| EQ-5D-Y | The EQ-5D-Y is a questionnaire which has 2 parts for a participant to complete. There are 5 questions asking in first part: mobility, looking after myself, doing usual activities, having pain or discomfort and feelin worried, sad or unhappy. The participant needs to rate these questions in 3 rating score: no problem, with some problem or with a lot of problem. The rating score will be coded as no problem=1, with some problem = 1 and with a lot of problem = 2. The code 11111 is the best condition and the code 33333 is the worst condition. The second part of the questionnaire is the EQ-VAS which the participants need to rate their condition on the linear scale from 0-100. The worst condition is score 0 and the best condition is score 100.Then the coding from the first part will be converted as an index value. | before starting the intervention and after finishing the intervention within 1 week |
