Effects of Powerball in Children With Down Syndrome

This Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT) investigates the Comparative Effects of Powerball using static and dynamic surface on Upper Limb Endurance and Coordination in Children with Down Syndrome.This programme was designed to enhance the coordination and endurance in children with Down Syndrome.The efficacy of this programme was investigated through RCT. Data will be collected from special schools or rehabilitation centers. Data will be conducted on 28 children aged 6-10 years,diagnosed with Down Syndrome with reduced upper extremity endurance and coordination.. After screening participants will undergo 3 weeks power ball endurance training session, consisting of structured, repetitive and goal directed activities. Power ball training 3 sessions per week with the duration of 30 mins each session. Group A will receive different upper extremity activities with power ball on static surface while Group B will receive same activities with power ball on dynamic surface using a BOSU ball. The whole session followed by warm up and cool down sessions for 5 minutes each. Endurance will be assessed through ABIL-HAND kids tool. To access the coordination BOT-2 subsets test will be used. Data will be assessed using SPSS 27.0.
