Background: Spastic cerebral palsy children suffer from spasticity, limitation of range of motion, muscle weakness, decreased cardiopulmonary endurance and limited function abilities.Objective: to evaluate the immediate effect of whole body vibration on spasticity, popliteal angle range and cardiopulmonary endurance in spastic cerebral palsy children. Participants and methods: the study was carried out on thirty children with spastic cerebral palsy divided into two groups (fifteen hemiplegic and fifteen diplegic), ranged in age from four to six years old. They were selected from the Outpatient Clinic of Faculty of Physical Therapy Cairo University, they had level I and II according to the gross motor function classification system and had grade 1 and 1+ spasticity according to the modified ashwarth scale, H/M ratio was used to assess the spasticity of soleus muscle, the universal goniometer was used to assess the popliteal angle range and the pulse oximeter was used to assess the heart rate and oxygen saturation. Results: there is significant decrease in H\M ratio and popliteal angle range immediatly and post 30 min of intervention compared with preintervention (p=0.001) while there was no significant difference between preintervention and after 1 hour post intervention, there is no effect on oxygen saturation, but there was only an immediate increase in heart rate with no effect after 30 min, 1 hour post interventiont
