Abstract To examine whether serial casting promotes autonomic nervous system adaptation in children with spastic CP, in comparison to ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) and no intervention. Thirty children with spastic CP (aged 6–12 years) were randomly assigned to one of three groups: Serial Casting (n = 10), AFO (n = 10), or Control (n = 10). Autonomic function was assessed using heart rate variability (HRV), recorded during rest, upright activity, and recovery phases over a 30-day intervention period.
