Objectives:

to investigate the Electrophysiological responses post-Kabat Motor Control Re-education in Bell’s palsy which might restore the neuromuscular circuit and normal function of the nerve.

Methods:

Thirty children diagnosed with Bell’s palsy were equally divided into two groups; the study group that received Kabat Motor Control Re-education and the physical therapy selected designed program, and the control group that received physical therapy selected designed program. The outcomes included Electroneurography (ENoG) measuring distal latency, amplitude, and percentage of degenerations, and the Sunnybrook facial grading system (SFGS), as pre and post-treatment, all parameters were evaluated.

Results:

The ENoG findings approved that post-intervention there was a significant improvement in the study group more than the control group (p< 0.05), as the percent of change of latency, amplitude, and …
