Question
What are the causes of pediatric cerebral palsy?
Answer
Pediatric cerebral palsy is a syndrome caused by non-progressive brain damage in children. The causes are diverse and may include prolonged labor leading to brain hypoxia, jaundice entering the central nervous system, perinatal hypoxia, ischemic encephalopathy, and other factors. These may lead to intellectual disability or cerebral palsy and have potential impacts on the child’s future development.
