Introduction[edit | edit source]
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a heterogeneous non-progressive neuromotor disorder in an immature brain that affects movement and posture.[1] Primary impairments associated with cerebral palsy include spasticity, weakness, decreased motor control and movement dysfunction.[2] Cerebral palsy can also lead to a number of secondary musculoskeletal conditions, which can also affect functional ability.[2]
Children with cerebral palsy all present differently. Their mobility varies from walking without aids to using a wheelchair at all times.[3] There are various diagnostic sub-types, based on motor type and the distribution of cerebral palsy.
Types of cerebral palsy:[3] [4]
- Spastic cerebral palsy
- most common type and most amenable to treatment[5]
- there are five types of spastic cerebral palsy:[3]
- diplegia - either both arms or both legs are affected (most commonly both legs are affected)
- hemiplegia or hemiparesis - affects the limbs on only one side of the body
- quadriplegia or quadriparesis - all four limbs are affected
- monoplegia - only one limb is affected (extremely rare)
- triplegia - three limbs are affected
- Dyskinetic cerebral palsy[6][7]
- involves injury to the basal ganglia
- children have impaired movement control, muscle tone and coordination
- Ataxic cerebral palsy[8][9]
- least common form of cerebral palsy
- children present with incoordination of goal-directed movements
