Assessment of bimanual performance in 3-D movement analysis: validation of a new clinical protocol in children with unilateral cerebral palsy

Conclusions. The BE-API protocol is a 3DMA bimanual performance-based assessment that is highly reliable in children with uCP. Children with uCP and TDC significantly differed in some clinically relevant kinematic parameters. The BE-API is a promising playful tool, helpful for better understanding upper-limb motor movement abnormalities in bimanual conditions and for tailoring treatments to individual deficits.
