It can be concluded that adults with cerebral palsy are at an increased risk of secondary conditions as a result of primary motor disorders.

The decline in functional abilities and quality of life additionally reduce their independence, especially in activities of daily living, which further limits or precludes their inclusion in all aspects of social life.
