1 Gross Motor Performance Measure (GMPM) 대구보건대학교고주연 PhD. RPT in NY, USA

2 GMPM Purpose Age range To evaluate change over time in gross motor performance (quality of movement) in CP children o CP children from 5 months to 12 years Areas tested o 20 items (3 static & 17 dynamic items) Time o 5 attributes of gross motor performance o Alignment o Coordination o Dissociated movement o Stability o Weight shift o 45 to 60 minutes Scoring o 5 point Likert scale (1,2,3,4,5) o % Limitations o Requires training and practice to administer

3 GMPM 5 attributes o Alignment The adjustment or arrangement of parts or segments of the body in relation to each other. o Coordination The smooth and controlled use of movements in motor performance. This takes into account timing, velocity, direction, force, and amplitude. o Dissociated movement Isolated movement. Movement that combines components if different motor patterns (i.e., extension of the hip with flexion of the knee). o Stability The active maintenance of a body position in the presence of disturbing forces.cc o Weight shift Movement that involves a transfer of the body s center of gravity; posteriorly, laterally, anteriorly, vertically

4 GMPM Scoring o 1 Severe the majority of the time o 2 Moderate the majority of the time; severe or mild sometimes o 3 Mild the majority of the time; never severe o 4 At least one trial with no evidence of movement pathology in the body part(s) being assessed o 5 All three trials within normal variations; No evidence of movement pathology in the body part(s) being assessed; freedom and variation in movement; Efficient; Normal effort and timing

5 GMPM Administration o GMFM based performance testing o Items should be tested in the order given. o Practical trial Three test trial o Spontaneous performance of an item can be scored. o Verbal encouragement or demonstration is permitted. o The score assigned will be based on the average performance observed over the three trials. o At least 10 seconds rest between trials o Simple cloth and shoes off o All items in Lying, Rolling, Sitting, Crawling and kneeling are on the floor. o All Standing, Running, and Jumping activities on the floor. o Equipment (based on the GMFM)

26 Purposes o To investigate the impact on motor function and everyday activities of a 3 week-period of intensive, goal-directed, activityfocused physiotherapy in a group setting for children with CP o To examine the relationship between acquisition of basic motor abilities and quality of movements. 26

27 Results A main effect of time was shown in the primary outcome measure; Gross Motor Function Measure-66 (GMFM-66), mean change being 4.5 (p < 0.01) from last baseline to last follow up assessment. An interaction between time and GMFCS-levels was found, implying that children classified to GMFCS-levels I-II improved more than children classified to levels III-V. There were no main or interaction effects of age or anti-spastic medication. Change scores in the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI) ranged , p < 0.01 in the Self-care domain of the Functional Skills dimension, and the Self-care and Mobility domains of the Caregiver Assistance dimension. The children's individual goals were on average attained, Mean Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) T-score being Non-significant improved scores on the Gross Motor Performance Measure (GMPM) and the Quality of Upper Extremities Skills Test (QUEST) were demonstrated. Significant improvement in GMPM scores were found in improved items of the GMFM, not in items that maintained the same score. 27

28 Conclusion A main effect of time was shown in the primary outcome measure; Gross Motor Function Measure-66 (GMFM-66), mean change being 4.5 (p < 0.01) from last baseline to last follow up assessment. Basic motor abilities and self-care improved in young children with CP after goal-directed activityfocused physiotherapy with involvement of their local environment, and their need for caregiver assistance in selfcare and mobility decreased. The individualized training within a group context during a limited period of time was feasible and well-tolerated. The coherence between acquisition of basic motor abilities and quality of movement should be further examined. 28
