摘要：Purpose. The prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder has dramatically increased over the past decades.People with Autism Disorder have weakness in maintaining the balance and disturbance of the posture due todevelopmental deficits in the nervous system and inferiority. Functional balance is all the balance skills a personneeds to live independently.The purpose of the study is toinvestigatethe Neuromuscular training program on improvethe functional balance for children with Autism Spectrum DisorderMethods.(7) Childs with Autism between the ages of 7 and 10 years were included in this study They were divided intoone experimental, Berger Balance Test Scale (BBTS) was used to assess posture control consists of 14 itemsbalance-related skills, with a maximum score of 56. The skill items include sitting to standing, standing to sitting,transfers, standing unsupported, sitting unsupported, standing with eyes closed, standing with feet together, standingwith one foot in front, standing on one foot, turning 360 degrees, turning to look behind, retrieving object from floor,placing alternative foot on stool, and reaching forward with outstretched arm. PBS was scored after completion ofthe static and dynamic balance tests in pre- between and post-assessments.Results. ANCOVA test was used to analyses the data via SPSS software at the significant level of P < 0.05shows that differences between the post-between and post measurement for experimental group in favor of the postmeasure in the functional balance test for post assessment for experimental group of the children with AutismSpectrum Disorder)Conclusions. Neuromuscular training program has a positive effect on the functional balance of children withneurodevelopmental disorders in the experimental group so, these training can be prescribed as an effective programfor the rehabilitation of children with autism spectrum.
