N2  - Purpose: This study was done to investigate the effect of sustained weight on drop shoulder in hemiplegic cerebral palsy children. Patients and Procedures: Thirty children with spastic hemiplegia enrolled in this study, their age ranged from 3 to 8 years and being assessed by posture zone software. They were randomly assigned into two groups of equal numbers 15 children each. The control group (A) received a designed physical therapy program and the study group (B) received the same therapy program in addition to sustained weight (2% out of the total body weight) placed on top of the dropped affected shoulder. Results: Comparison of post treatment results between the control and study groups revealed a significant difference between post treatment mean values of shoulders level angle in favour of the study group. Conclusion: From the obtained results it could be concluded that sustained weight of about 2% of the total body weight has a beneficial effect on drop shoulder in children with spastic hemiplegia
