a group of permanent disorders of the development of movement and posture, causing activity limitations that are attributed to nonprogressive disturbances that occurred in the developing fetal or infant brain
Cerebral palsy
T/F. The motor disorders of CP are often accompanied by:
disturbances of sensation, perception, cognition, communication and behavior as well as seizures and secondary musculoskeletal problems.”
T
T/F. Six main aspects to the clinical picture of CP includes:
- Delay in the development of new skills expected at a child’s chronological age.
- Persistence of immature behaviors such as feeding difficulties and retained primitive reflexes that sometimes interfere with function.
- Slow rate of progress from one developmental stage to the next.
- A smaller variety of skills in comparison with a child who is developing typically.
- Marked variations in the sequence of skills greater than that which we might see in typical development.
- Atypical and unusual performance of skills
T
Delayed motor development due to
brain lesion
Hallmark of cerebral palsy
- Weakness
- Postural problems
- Balance problems
Abnormal movement patterns of CP, except:
- Hypertonicity
