Constraint-induced movement therapy
In a 2-week day camp model children receive constraint- induced movement therapy for six hours a day, for 9 out of 11 consecutive days. All children wear a tailor made hand splint on the unaffected upper limb for 6 hours per day while performing unimanual exercises individually or in a group based on shaping and repetitive practice.
Action observation training
Action observation training consists of 15 sessions of 1 hour. Children watch 3 minute video clips of unimanual goal-directed actions followed by 3 minutes of execution of the actions.
Placebo observation training
Placebo observation training consists of 15 sessions of 1 hour. Children perform the same actions as the AOT training after watching computer games without biological movements.
