A brain condition caused by permanent insult during pregnancy, delivery, or shortly after.

Premature birth and low birth weight increase chances of developing cerebral palsy.

Conditions during pregnancy that can lead to cerebral palsy include infections like CMV and rubella.

Brain damage shortly after delivery can cause CP due to infections, trauma, or lack of oxygen.

Type of CP resulting from brain injury in the first few years of life.

Brain damage caused by lack of oxygen, often a risk in premature infants.

Severe jaundice in newborns that can cause brain damage and athetoid CP.

A neurological disorder affecting movement and muscle coordination.

Conditions like strabismus and visual perceptual problems affecting eye coordination.

Difficulty with tongue control, eating, and swallowing, impacting communication.

A multidisciplinary approach involving various health professionals to manage CP symptoms.

A medication used to reduce spasticity by affecting muscle tone.

A delivery system for Baclofen directly into the cerebrospinal canal.

Drugs like Phenobarbital and Phenytoin used to manage seizures.

Dizziness, weakness, and confusion can occur with Baclofen use.

Conditions like hearing loss and spatial awareness problems arise as complications of CP.

A form of child abuse caused by violently shaking a baby, leading to brain injury.

Hallmark signs include subdural and retinal hemorrhages, and irritability without external signs of abuse.

First steps include assessing airway, breathing, and circulation; stabilizing blood pressure and stopping hemorrhaging.

Babies have weak necks with shallow cervical facet joints, making them vulnerable to injury.

SBS is often diagnosed using MRI or CT scans to identify brain injuries and bleeding.

A scale to assess cognitive recovery following brain injury.

Utilizes a multi-level scale for evaluating cognitive abilities post-injury.

Techniques to increase arousal in patients with low consciousness levels.

Awareness of body position and movement through sensations.

Therapies that help process and respond to sensory information.

Training focused on improving movements needed for daily activities.

Exercises that improve stability while in motion.

Skills related to movement that develop at specific age stages.

Problems related to alignment and body posture affecting mobility.

The ability to conceive, plan, and execute coordinated movements.

The highest functioning level for infants/children in motor skills.

CP can be caused by oxygen shortage, toxicity, or Rh incompatibility.

Characterized by writhing movements and fluctuating muscle tone.

Seizures are a frequent secondary condition associated with CP.

Leading causes include motor vehicle accidents and other trauma.

Related to forces at the initial impact; can be translational or rotational.

Coup is the direct impact, while contrecoup is the opposite side hit.

Loss of consciousness <30 mins, GCS 13-15, common injuries include headaches.

Loss of consciousness >30 mins, GCS 8-12; possible skull fracture.

Nearly 3.8 million sports-related concussions occur annually in children.
