Working towards an objective segmental assessment of trunk control in children with cerebral palsy

This study showed that simple objective video-based measurements can be used to reconstruct the subjective assessment of segmental head/trunk control. This suggests that a clinically-friendly video-based objective measure has future potential to complement subjective assessments and to assist in the generation of EBP guidelines. Further development will increase the information that can be extracted from video images and enable generation of a fully automated objective measure.
