Question
What is pediatric cerebral palsy?
Answer
Pediatric cerebral palsy is a brain injury that occurs due to oxygen deficiency during pregnancy or at birth. It requires early treatment to promote brain cell growth and development. Cerebral palsy is also a syndrome characterized by limb movement disorders and postural abnormalities, primarily occurring during the immature stage of brain development before and after birth. It is a non-progressive central nervous system injury that can be accompanied by intellectual, hearing, visual, and language impairments.
