Infantile cerebral palsy (ICP) is a non-progressive pediatric disease and the most frequent cause of childhood disability; it is a permanent motor impairment due to a non-evolutionary lesion of the central nervous system during the early period of brain development. The objective of this research was to obtain systematically updated information on the main characteristics of infantile cerebral palsy (CP), considering risk factors, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. Thus, by means of a focused narrative-descriptive literature review, a compilation of publications in journals and scientific articles of academic interest was made, using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Thirty publications were selected from scientific articles and other documents. Subsequently, relevant information was analyzed, synthesized and discussed. It was determined that the global prevalence is between 1.5-3/1000 of live newborns, it is more frequent in products weighing 1000-1499 grams, in Latin America there are no data, since there are no studies or programs specialized in the subject. ICP presents multiple risk factors that interact giving effects in the fetus or newborn.

“…The symptoms of CP are highly variable [ 3 ]. The typical symptom in most cases is increased muscle tone, but can also be expressed as dystonia, chorea, or athetosis depending on the localization of the damage [ 4 , 5 ]. Neurological symptoms lead to abnormal posture and movement.…”

“…Neurological symptoms lead to abnormal posture and movement. Secondary skeletal deformities such as clubfoot, scoliosis, and hip dislocations may occur leading to pain [ 5 ]. In addition to motor impairment, there is a wide range of associated disorders, such as epileptic seizures [ 5 ] and sensory, behavioral, perceptual, cognitive, and communication disorders [ 1 ].…”

Data obtained from routine clinical care find increasing use in a scientific context. Many routine databases, e.g., from health insurance providers, include records of medical devices and therapies, but not on motor function, such as the frequently used Gross Motor Function Measure-66 (GMFM-66) score for children and adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP). However, motor function is the most common outcome of therapeutic efforts. In order to increase the usability of available records, the aim of this study was to predict the GMFM-66 score from the medical devices used by a patient with CP. For this purpose, we developed the Medical Device Score Calculator (MDSC) based on the analysis of a population of 1581 children and adolescents with CP. Several machine learning algorithms were compared for predicting the GMFM-66 score. The random forest algorithm proved to be the most accurate with a concordance correlation coefficient (Lin) of 0.75 (0.71; 0.78) with a mean absolute error of 7.74 (7.15; 8.33) and a root mean square error of 10.1 (9.51; 10.8). Our findings suggest that the MDSC is appropriate for estimating the GMFM-66 score in sufficiently large patient groups for scientific purposes, such as comparison or efficacy of different therapies. The MDSC is not suitable for the individual assessment of a child or adolescent with CP.

“…Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurodevelopmental disease characterized by movement and posture disorders due to non-progressive damage to the motor control centers of the developing infant brain (1). The clinic of cerebral palsy can be highly variable (2). Comorbidities such as epilepsy, ocular anomalies, hearing problems, gastroesophageal reflux disease, sleep apnea, incontinence, developmental disorders, and musculoskeletal system diseases may accompany (3).…”

Objective: Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurodevelopmental disease characterized by movement and posture disorders due to non-progressive damage. Femur varization-derotation osteotomy is a surgical procedure performed to correct femoral anteversion in patients with CP. The aim of this study is to determine the factors affecting morbidity in children with CP sequelae who underwent corrective osteotomy.
