Daftar Isi:
- Motoric and sensoric disorders are commonly experienced by children with cerebral palsy, such as grasping, gripping, pinching, sitting, and standing, as well as walking. Thedeficiency of one or more of those basic functions could be the causes of dependency and decrease children's quality of life. Upper extermity disorder is the most physical limitation which experienced by children with cerebral palsy. It has been experienced by 80% of them. The study on 84 children with cerebral palsy describes there are 1,075kinds of supporting devices, and 980of those devices are used to support mobility, individual care, and social functions. Moreover, the preliminary study on 20 children with cerebral palsy in age 2 -18 shown the percentage of their upper extremity function level which is 40% minimum, and 60% has low quality of life. The aim of this study was to develop a design of eating devices for cerebral palsy children. As many as 51 participants who have inclusion and exclusion criteria have been involved. Their fuction level of upper extremity have measured by The Action ResearchArm Test(ARAT). Thisstudy has produced twoprototypes of spoon (C model and F model) that can be used by children with cerebral palsy in age 3 - 18. Based on C and F model, then derived to several kinds of prototypes, such as big spoon C model for right and left hand, small spoon C model for right and left hand, big spoon F model for right hand, and small spoon F model for left hand. Twokinds of spoonprototypes, that can be used by children with cerebral palsy, have been produced. First prototype is C model for those who have good upper extremity function level. The other one is F model which can be used by those who have low level of upper extremity function. Both Cand F model have been developed to two sizes (big and small), and two sites (right and left). ). The angle of elbow when the CP's children moved their fingers to the mouth was measured. It has found that the angle of elbow was4~ to 9(/, so that the curvature of the spoon was 13~, as thesum of the minimum angle and themaximum angle.
