Patient's question:
Is there a specialized hospital for treating pediatric cerebral palsy? My daughter is 5 years old. She was born with hypoxia, which caused cerebral palsy, and there has been no improvement. I am looking for a specialized hospital that treats pediatric cerebral palsy.Doctor's answer:
Treatment Methods for Pediatric Cerebral Palsy1. Psychological treatment for children with cerebral palsy includes caregivers, who can use dialogue, Q&A, and specific, effective scales or questionnaires to conduct psychological assessments of the children and their families to understand their psychological states. Behavioral problems are addressed by taking appropriate nursing measures based on the children's psychological issues. Nurses should also communicate with the children to alleviate their fears.
Treatment for Pediatric Cerebral Palsy II. Surgical treatment of the disease: This is also a commonly used medical treatment method, but surgical treatment mainly includes muscle tenotomy, tendon lengthening, and selective spinal nerve sectioning. By treating the spinal nerves, muscle tone in patients can be fully regulated, and the muscle tone of tendons and muscles can be brought as close to normal as possible.
