Patient's question:
My own sister's child is a patient with cerebral palsy. Due to the cerebral palsy, the child has developed persistent joint deformities, and there are also very obvious developmental delays. We want to find a hospital to start rehabilitation treatment for the child as soon as possible. How should children with cerebral palsy undergo rehabilitation?Doctor's answer:
Although the definition of cerebral palsy is simple, the symptoms vary greatly. The level of rehabilitation varies greatly depending on the nutritional level and developmental stage. It is very difficult to pay attention to the patient's cooperation level and other comprehensive symptoms. To define, for patients with good general condition, only muscle tone increase and waist stability are required. For patients with severe preoperative deformities or poor waist stability, orthopedic surgery can be performed first to create conditions for rehabilitation and recurrence within a year. In the case of rehabilitation, SPR can be considered, otherwise the deformity may recur again and the treatment will be doubled. For postoperative muscle tension, complications or poor improvement due to unsatisfactory rehabilitation, the efficacy can be further improved by appropriately implementing SPN.
