Abstract
Being inspired by international experiments, we proposed in France, for hemiplegic children, a model of intensive care implemented in a 2 weeks-rehabilitation camp, which associated constraint-induced therapy and bimanual intensive training, but also included a time of goal-oriented therapy: COLHEMI. This program was estimated at J0, J15 (immediate exit of the program) and at 6 months, with tools assessing global capacities (EMFG, IDE), manual capacities (grip strength by E-link, Box and blocks test, Melbourne test), bimanual performance (AHA, CHEQ) and satisfaction. Six children were included in the first session of COLHEMI (2 boys, 4 girls, average age 7.5 years–min. 6 years and max. 9 years old, 6 right hemiplegias). The preliminary results show variable but real functional profits for each of 6 children, and a favorable evolution of the CHEQ. The children and the parents reported a big satisfaction regarding the quality of the program COLHEMI.
