Primary outcomePrimary: Step Length as Measured by the Gaitrite Walk-way System. — 51.32; 53.36 cm
Summary
To determine the clinical efficacy of auditory cueing using a cross over design to investigate whether increasing auditory cueing frequency by 20% above self paced cadence affects gait parameters in children with Cerebral Palsy when performing a functional task.
