Eye movements are essential to get a clear vision of moving objects. In the present study, we assessed quantitatively the oculomotor deficits of children with cerebral palsy (CP). We recorded eye movements of 51 children with cerebral palsy (aged 5-16 years) with relatively mild motor impairment and compared their performance with age-matched control and premature children. Overall eye movement...

Cerebral palsy (CP) is defined as a non-progressive neuromotor disorder of cerebral origin. Motor disorders of CP are often accompanied by disturbances of sensation, perception, cognition, communication and behavior. CP is classified into four types, spastic, ataxic, dyskinetic and mixed. Spastic CP accounts for a major portion of CP [1]. In India, the prevalence of CP is estimated around 3 cas...

Infantile cerebral palsy (CP) is a non-progressive brain disease of children, where the ability of movement, muscle tone and posture is abnormal due to the insult of developing, immature brain, mostly before, during or sometimes after birth. [Basically, CP started to develop impaired movement which associated with different abnormal reflexes, abnormal (hypotonic or hypertonic) muscle tone in ex...

objective different medical and rehabilitation interventions have been used for treatment of cerebral palsy (cp). in addition to conventional methods, complementary medicine such as homeopathy has been used in treatment of neurodevelopmental disorders. this study has been done to determine what effect homeopathic treatment would have on motor development (md) of children with spastic cp, when a...

Objectives: Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a non-progressive brain damage that leads to movement and balance disorders. One of the new rehabilitation approaches for such children is Kinesio taping. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of lower limbs kinesio taping on static and dynamic balance in children with CP. Methods: In this pilot randomized clinical trial, 30 children with CP were ...

oral feeding difficulties are common in children with cerebral palsy (cp). the effect of oral-motor dysfunction on feeding problems has been proved in several studies. the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of oral sensorimotor stimulations on feeding performance in children with spastic cerebral palsy. a total of 12 children with spastic cerebral palsy underwent 24 session...

Background: Cerebral palsy is a neurological disorder of brain, which impacts on posture, balance, and motor skills child due to in coordination between nervous musculoskeletal system. Aim: To improve functional independence among children with spastic cerebral palsy, so that independent sitting could be achieved, by quality life these children, labor therapist caregiver was minimized. Methods:...
