Feasibility of HABIT-ILE@home in children with cerebral palsy and adults with chronic stroke: A pilot study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) and adults with chronic stroke (CS) usually have disabilities in voluntary motor control. Hand-Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy Including Lower Extremities (HABIT-ILE), an evidence-based therapy, has always been provided during day camps. This pilot study investigates if HABIT-ILE@home, a remote neurorehabilitation, is feasible for children with CP and adults with CS. METHODS: Four children with CP (5-18y) and three adults with CS were recruited. They received 15h (5x3h) of HABIT-ILE@home provided by a caregiver with a remote supervision of 30min at the beginning and end of each session. A large touch screen, the REAtouch Lite, was used as a support for the therapy. An interview based on a questionnaire (n = 73 items for CP/ n = 74 items for stroke patients; scored from 0 "disagree" to 3 "agree", a higher rating meaning a more positive aspect of the therapy) was conducted with patients and their caregivers after 15h of supervised home-therapy to assess their adherence to the treatment and the feasibility of HABIT-ILE@home. Performance and satisfaction in achieving functional goals were assessed before and after the intervention using the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). RESULTS: Caregivers felt sufficiently supported by the supervision team (medians = 3) to carry out HABIT-ILE@home sessions thanks to an adequate clinical supervision (CP median = 2.6; CS median = 2.9). HABIT-ILE principles were transferable at patients' home (CP median = 2.6; CS median = 2.8). The impact of the therapy on daily organization was more problematic for children's caregivers (median = 1.5) than for adults' caregivers (median = 3). Children with CP enjoyed the therapy (median = 2) but felt that it was too long (median = 1) and significant fatigue was present (median = 1.3). CS adults did not find the therapy fun (median = 1) but considered it as extremely useful (median = 3). Although the motivational source differed between children and adults, this did not seem to strongly affect adherence to treatment. Performance and satisfaction in achieving functional goals improved over the MCID (2 points) for all CS participants and for 3 out 4 CP children. CONCLUSION: HABIT-ILE@home seems to be feasible for children with CP and adults with CS. It may allow more patients to benefit from an efficient neurorehabilitation, whatever sanitary conditions or patients' home geographical locations.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
