主 题:Hydrotherapy Halliwick SWIM Cerebral Palsy
摘 要:Objectives:Halliwick-based hydrotherapy has become one of the most widespread approaches in the water environment for people with disabilities. The Swimming with Independent Measure (SWIM) test was developed by Peackok (1993) based on the need to create specific aquatic assessment tests for people with disabilities. The purpose of our study was its translation into Greek language and the investigation of its metric properties. Methods: A total of 40 children with cerebral palsy aged on average 7.36 years participated in the study: 20 children with GMFCS 1-5 and cognitive limitations, and 20 children with GMFCS 1-4 without cognitive limitations.
