Abstract

Cerebral palsy is a complex disorder at the level of the central nervous system. Cerebral Palsy generally has symptoms that affect motor activity that has an impact on functional ability, especially in walking disorders. Cerebral palsy has disorders that are classified based on the location of the affected limb,namely monoplegia,hemiplegia, diplegia, and quadriplegia. One method of intervention that adapts to modern technology is the provision of RAGT (Roboric-Assisted Gait Training). Where robotic-based exercises as aids can improve the ability of motor function and walking ability of children with Cerebral Palsy. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of RAGT on these aspects in children with Cerebral Palsy.This study is a literature review study in the form of narrative, where six articles were found to be reviewed after research and selection on nine databases. The results of the review found that 153 children with a diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy aged 0-20 years with GMFM I-V were given RAGT intervention with Sessions 3-5 times per week, duration 20-30 minutes per session. After the intervention was given for 12 weeks and reevaluated after 3 months, the evaluation data analysis found a development in the ability of motor function, and the ability to walk. Based on the results of the review, it can be concluded that the provision of RAGT intervention provides neurological and physiological effects that are appropriate for the condition of children with CP, so that the provision of RAGT can be used as one of the intervention options to improve the ability of motor function and walking ability of children with Cerebral Palsy
