  • Title: Cerebellar stimulation for spastic cerebral palsy--double-blind quantitative study.
    Author: Davis R, Schulman J, Nanes M, Delehanty A.
    Journal: Appl Neurophysiol; 1987; 50(1-6):451-2. PubMed ID: 3502447.
    Abstract:
    Thirty spastic cerebral palsy (CP) patients were involved in a double-blind quantitative study to determine the effectiveness of chronic cerebellar stimulation, (CCS) and 19 patients completed the testing. Of the 12 patients undergoing the five motor performance tests, 8 (66%) showed improvements with the stimulation. Of the 16 patients tested for active motion in seven bilateral joints, 10 (63%) showed increases with CCS. Profiles of six mood states were tested in 15 patients, and CCS produced an overall 15% improvement.
