Abstract:
Various treatments and therapies are used to cure neurological disorders like Cerebral Palsy.
Neurotransmission cognitive theory forms the basis of vibrational therapy which is also used for
treating Cerebral Palsy along with other related diseases. In this research, we conduct a study to
validate Neurotransmission cognitive therapy effects that is how effective and safe it is to use for
patients having dysarthria and Cerebral Palsy. Vibrational therapy device is used to transmit
vibrations to the patients’ brain via applying on the defined specific therapy application points of
the body. The period of whole intervention is 6 months. 12 participants including 84% males and
16% females (having mean age 6.2; S.D. as 1.3) are enrolled for the therapy. Assessments are
carried out to check the positive and adverse impacts of the therapy at three different levels (pre,
mid and post therapy). Parameters of TAAPU are used for the clinical based assessment of
participants and survey based assessment is carried out to know about the viewpoints of parents.
Results shows that the data has normality as Shapiro Wilk test shows p>0.05. Paired sample T-test
is used for further assessment of data which gives 95% confidence interval (CI) while chi-square
test also gives out 95% CI hence supported our test hypothesis. Intelligibility score for single word
also got improved (p<0.05) during the assessment period and 90% parents have given a positive
response towards the efficacy of therapy. There isn’t any adversity reported throughout the
intervention as all the parameters of phonological processes show p<0.05 for whole intervention.
The study concludes that the vibrational therapy is safe and effective to use for dysarthria and
Cerebral Palsy patients. This is a rudimentary study, more studies need to be carried out with larger
number of participants in order to make it more evident
