Cerebral palsy is a group of permanent disorders affecting the development of movement and causing a limitation of activity. Non-progressive disturbances that manifest in the developing fetal or infant brain can lead to cerebral palsy; this is the most common cause of childhood disability. The degree and type of motor impairment and functional capabilities vary depending on the etiology. Cerebral palsy may have several associated comorbidities, including epilepsy, musculoskeletal problems, intellectual disability, feeding difficulties, visual abnormalities, hearing abnormalities, and communication difficulties.This activity comprehensively reviews the evaluation, treatment, and complications of cerebral palsy. Managing cerebral palsy should employ an interprofessional approach, and this course underscores the importance of interprofessional team collaboration. Participants will explore strategies tailored to address associated comorbidities, fostering improved patient outcomes through collaborative teamwork across disciplines.
