36 children aged 5 to 13 years with spastic diplegia were randomized to evaluate the efficacy of added patterned sensory enhancement (PSE) music to a home-based music-trained loaded sit-to-stand (STS) exercise program. Patients underwent the 6 week exercise program with or without the neurologic music therapy and were assessed over 12 weeks after the conclusion of treatment. The evidence presented in this study demonstrated that patients in both groups experienced significant improvements in Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) Dimensions D and Goal dimension outcomes; however patients treated with patterned sensory enhancement music demonstrated significantly superior Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) Dimensions D and Goal dimension outcomes compared to the significant improvements in the no music group.
