Is there a pediatric cerebral palsy assessment scale?

Patient's question:

A good friend, who has been divorced for two years and has no children, finally got pregnant after seeking medical treatment everywhere. After a ten-month pregnancy, the child was born, and now the child is three years old. But this child seems to have cerebral palsy. What are the symptoms of non-acute cerebral palsy in the children's cerebral palsy classification table? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Children with cerebral palsy may exhibit symptoms such as weakness, reduced voluntary movement, stiffness, dullness, lack of response, abnormal head circumference, poor weight gain, difficulty with breastfeeding, postural rigidity, lack of laughter, clenched fists, twisting, head instability, and strabismus. We cannot reach out to grab things, nor can we gaze at our hands. In the case of persistent symptoms, it is important to take the child to see a doctor as soon as possible for examination and treatment. Regular hospital check-ups are necessary.
