Developed for therapists working with children with cerebral palsy and other neuromotor disorders, this book outlines practical clinical interventions from expert clinicians and evaluates the evidence that supports these interventions. Chapters highlight the problem-solving and critical-thinking skills necessary to assess and treat the feeding and communication needs of children with this central motor impairment.

This well-crafted text discusses the theory and techniques used by physical and occupational therapists and is a derivative of Dr. Miller's highly regarded reference, Cerebral Palsy. The book is conveniently divided into two sections. The first focuses on fundamental aspects of cerebral palsy management, from understanding motor impairment to evaluating equipment use. The second section presents specific rehabilitation techniques, including neurodevelopment therapy, hippotherapy, and assistive devices. A wealth of tables, algorithms and detailed illustrations helps the reader with the decision-making process for determining what treatment would be most beneficial. With its thorough and clinically-oriented approach, physical therapists who care for cerebral palsy patients will find this book invaluable to their practice.

Cerebral Palsy in Infancy is a thought-provoking book which introduces a new way of thinking on the development and use of interventions. Relevant to current practice, it advocates early, targeted activity that is focused on increasing muscle activation, training basic actions and minimizing (or preventing) mal-adaptive changes to muscle morphology and function. The authors present recent scientific findings in brain science, movement sciences (developmental biomechanics, motor control mechanisms, motor learning, exercise science) and muscle biology. This knowledge provides the rationale for

This new edition will grow to three volumes and significantly expand existing sections on medical management of children with cerebral palsy, research, education and therapies. The first volume will cover the cause of CP, the underlying pathology in the brain and the secondary pathologies in different tissues, such as muscle and bone. There are a fair number of controversies and new techniques, such as PET scans, that are getter attention to make earlier diagnosis. It is still not clear whether early diagnosis makes a long term difference. Epidemiology will also be discussed. The second volume will focus on general medical concerns related to CP on each of the medical specialties and the musculoskeletal section - which served as the main focus of the previous edition. This volume will be updated with an emphasis on gait disorders, spasticity, seizures and movement disorders. New research and techniques on the hip and spine areas will be added as well. The third and final volume will be an expanded and comprehensive resource on therapies. More detail on the latest outcome research and techniques will be provided along with sections on orthotics and novel treatments and techniques. This reference work will build on gaps within the first edition and continue to be the definitive guide for rehabilitation physicians, orthopedics, neurologists and therapists who treat children with CP .

Written for therapists, parents and community workers this text describes the most up-to-date approach to treating children with cerebral palsy in countries where there are few resources and little awareness of what can be done to help children and their families.

This book is the result of studies on cerebral palsy (CP) in children that the authors and their collaborators (medical doctors and therapists) have carried out in recent years. It addresses the main topics associated with the evaluation of adaptive functions in the spastic forms of CP (definition and modifications over the most recent decades, newly classified orientations, etiopathogenesis, anatomic–functional correlations, semiotics, and the so-called associated disorders: visual, cognitive, and behavioral). The main goal of this book is to offer readily accessible information on the nature of the disease, the problems correlated with prognosis, and the rehabilitation. Because of its instructive nature and practical approach, the book will be an invaluable tool for practitioners already working in this field (medical doctors, child neuropsychiatrists and physiatrists, and rehabilitation therapists), for university students studying physical and occupational therapy, and for residents in rehabilitative medicine, child neurology, and orthopedics.

Cerebral palsy is a lifelong condition that affects the individual, family, and immediate community. Therefore, the goal of allowing the individual with cerebral palsy to live life with the least impact of the disability requires c- plex attention to the individual and the family. Furthermore, society needs to be sensitive and to accommodate individuals with disabilities by limiting architectural impediments and providing accessible public transportation and communication. The educational system provides the key means for helping the individual prepare to function in society to his or her maximum ability. In many ways, the medical care system probably has the least sign- icant role in preparing the child with cerebral palsy to function optimally in society. However, the medical care system is the place where parents first learn that their child has developmental issues outside the expected norm. It is almost universally the place where parents also expect the child to be made normal in our modern society. In earlier times, the parents would expect healing to possibly come from the doctor, but also they would place hope for healing in religion. As this belief in spiritual or miraculous healing has - creased, a significant font of hope has decreased for parents of young ch- dren with disabilities.

Il libro, frutto delle riflessioni sulla paralisi cerebrale infantile (PCI) che gli autori ed i loro collaboratori, medici e terapisti, hanno condotto negli ultimi anni, affronta i principali temi connessi alla valutazione delle funzioni adattive nelle forme spastiche della PCI (la definizione e le sue modifiche negli ultimi decenni, i nuovi orientamenti classificativi, l’eziopatogenesi, le correlazioni anatomo-funzionali, la semeiotica, i cosiddetti "disturbi associati": visivi, cognitivi, del comportamento). Lo scopo principale del volume non è quello di riportare lo "stato dell’arte" su questi argomenti, ma di offrire "appunti di viaggio" sui temi trattati, per suscitare riflessioni e confronti con l’esperienza dei lettori. Gli argomenti vengono trattati dagli autori secondoun’ottica fisiopatologica che guida la loro interpretazione della natura del difetto (diagnosi funzionale), dei problemi legati alla prognosi (come ipotesi di storia naturale) e alla riabilitazione (come modifica dell’architettura della funzione in senso adattivo). Il testo è corredato di un ampio glossario sui termini utilizzati e di un DVD con casi clinici, suddivisi in base alla classificazione proposta degli autori. Anche questo materiale sottolinea la grande utilità didattica del volume, sia per chi già lavora in questo campo (medici, neuropsichiatri infantili e fisiatri, terapisti della riabilitazione), sia per gli allievi delle lauree di I e II livello dell’area della riabilitazione e delle Scuole di Specializzazione.
