Question
A child developed pathological jaundice on the second day of life, which persisted until full term. The parents are worried whether this could lead to cerebral palsy.
Answer
Rehabilitation training for language is an important part of treating cerebral palsy. Parents should develop a recovery plan early on and purposefully conduct home rehabilitation training. Understanding the methods of language rehabilitation training for cerebral palsy: the simplest method is demonstration and imitation; the pronunciation does not need to be overly precise, just reaching 80% accuracy is sufficient. Minimize the impact of disabling factors: if hearing or visual impairments are found in the patient, appropriate hearing aids or glasses should be provided, and patients should be encouraged to speak more, and to increase the amount of speaking and activity; perseverance is key.
