Children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) often (<87 %) experience postural control problems, impacting all levels of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) including their daily participation, self-esteem and mental health. Due to the multisystemic nature of postural control, comprehensive therapy should target all systems which is currently not the case. Highly intensive therapy is effective and commonly used in pediatric populations, but has not been explored yet to train postural control in children with DCD. To investigate the effects of a highly intensive functional balance therapy camp at all ICF levels in children with DCD. The effects on postural control, muscle activity, brain alterations, self-perceived competence, self-identified goals, gross motor activities and participation are evaluated. Participants are assessed pre- and post-intervention, including a 3 months follow-up. Forty-eight children with DCD, aged 6–12 years old, receive 40 h of comprehensive balance training. This intervention is fun, individually tailored, targets all postural control systems, implements different motor learning strategies and includes both individual and group activities. Novel insights into the effects of a highly intensive comprehensive balance therapy camp designed for children with DCD will be gained at all levels of the ICF.

高强度平衡治疗营对发育协调障碍儿童的影响——干预方案

患有发育协调障碍 (DCD) 的儿童经常 (<87%) 遇到姿势控制问题，影响国际功能、残疾和健康分类 (ICF) 的各个级别，包括他们的日常参与、自尊和心理健康。由于姿势控制的多系统性质，综合治疗应针对所有系统，但目前情况并非如此。高强度治疗在儿科人群中是有效且普遍使用的，但尚未探索如何训练患有 DCD 的儿童的姿势控制。旨在研究高强度功能平衡治疗营在所有 ICF 级别对 DCD 儿童的影响。评估对姿势控制、肌肉活动、大脑改变、自我感知能力、自我确定目标、粗大运动活动和参与的影响。参与者在干预前和干预后接受评估，包括 3 个月的随访。 48名6~12岁DCD儿童接受40小时的综合平衡训练。这种干预很有趣，量身定制，针对所有姿势控制系统，实施不同的运动学习策略，包括个人和团体活动。 ICF 的各个级别都将获得针对为 DCD 儿童设计的高强度综合平衡治疗营的效果的新颖见解。
