Physical Rehabilitation of a Spastic Diplegic Cerebral Palsy Patient - A Case Study

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of motor deficits induced by non-progressive brain damage in children. CP is a geographic ailment that affects both developed and developing countries with equal frequency. The study's purpose is to help Cerebral Palsy patients better their rehabilitation. The child's problems are being unable to stand without assistance due to truncal imbalance, having poor cognitive and social conduct, and being unable to do daily living activities independently. Children with CP usually have normal anatomic hip alignment when they are born. A variety of factors influence development, including delayed motor milestones and soft tissue anomalies, such as a muscle tone imbalance with strong hip flexors and adductors vs weaker hip extensors and abductors. When the GMFCS was used to evaluate the patient, the diagnosis of Spastic Diplegia cerebral palsy was confirmed. Physiotherapy intervention has been demonstrated to be useful in minimizing problems and improving patient outcomes.Results: These studies revealed the difficulty of evaluating children with cerebral palsy. Clinical PTs must be aware of these complications and the fact that more than one assessment may be required to capture the children with CP's specific skills and behaviors.Conclusion: Because of PT therapy, the patient was able to control his posture, regulate his head and neck, and stand with limited assistance despite wearing a KAFO.Key words: Cerebral palsy, Assessment, Spastic diplegia, Early intervention, Physiotherapy rehabilitation.
