标题：EFFECTS OF PROPRIOCEPTIVE NEUROMUSCULAR FACILITATION PROGRAM ON RANGE OFMOTION OF SOME UPPER LIMB JOINTS OF CHILDREN WITH NEURODEVELOPMENTALDISORDERS
摘要：Purpose. The main purpose of the study is to design a rehabilitation program that includes sometechniques of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation, which can identify the difference between the pre-postmeasurement in the range of motion of the wrist joint, the elbow joint and the shoulder joint.Methods. The sample of the research was selected in a deliberate manner from children withNeurodevelopmental Disorders. The basic research sample (7) children and (2) children were in the exploratorystudy after excluding children with different disabilities and multiple disabilities. The researcher used theprogram (Angelus Software Version 3.1.5) to measure the range of motor joints was. Rehabilitation programimplemented for a month and use three training units per week, which included the program 18 rehabilitationunits.Results. Considering research procedures, sample boundaries and statistical analysis, it was found that theproposed rehabilitation program had a positive effect on the range of motion of the wrist joint, elbow joint andshoulder joint.Conclusions. Within the limits of the research sample and the results reached, it is recommended to directthe results of this research and the program to the workers in the field of motor rehabilitation for people withspecial needs in general and rehabilitation of the groups of neurodevelopmental disorders in particular andconduct other research using the method of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation technique on disordersand other disabilities.
