Abstract: Objective：To observe the effect of bilateral intensive training on gross motor function and walking function in children with spastic hemiplegia.
Methods：The 30 children with spasmodic hemiplegia diagnosed and treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from Feb. 2014 to Dec. 2019 were randomly divided into control group(15 cases) and observation group(15 cases). Both groups received routine rehabilitation treatment, and bilateral intensive training was given to the observation group as exercise therapy; both groups were treated for 3 courses. The children were assessed before and after treatment by gross motor function scale assessment(GMFM-88), footprint analysis, 10-meter walk test and 1-minute walk test.
Results：The scores in GMFM-88 test, step length, step width,10 m  walking time and 1 min walking distance in the two groups were better after treatment than before treatment(P<0.05), and the observation group was better than the control group(P<0.05).
Conclusion：Bilateral intensive training combined with conventional rehabilitation can improve the gross motor function, correct abnormal gait, and increase walking speed, endurance and stability of children with spastic hemiplegia.
