Background and aim: Feeding and gastrointestinal difficulties are common in children with cerebral palsy and if not appropriately managed can result in under nutrition, poor growth and worsened general health. This study aimed to evaluate gastrointestinal disorders in children with cerebral palsy. Patients and methods This study was a retrospective observational study performed in Pediatric department in Edfo General Hospital enrolled 70 children their age ranged between 2 months and 15 years attending the Hospital with history of cerebral palsy in the period from December 2020 to June 2021. Results: There was significant correlation between types of CP and dysphagia and constipation; as Dysphagia and Constipation was more in Spastic quadriplegia and Spastic triplegia Conclusion: Regarding GIT problems related to CP; the main GIT compliant was Diarrhea, followed by abdominal pain, vomiting, drooling, constipation, Dysphagia, reflux and dysentery.

“…described probable etiological factors of CP children in Central India and found that antepartum hemorrhage and hypertension contributed 10% and 6%, respectively. [ 9 ] Pattar and Yelamali described similar results with equal frequency of maternal anemia, PIH/toxemia, and APH (in 6% cases each) as risk factors of CP. [ 10 ]…”

Aim and Objective:Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common motor disability in childhood. This study aimed to describe clinical spectrum, comorbidities, and risk factors associated with CP children.Materials and Methods:This hospital-based observational study was conducted in tertiary level hospital in Jaipur including 180 CP children aged 1–12 years, attending the Paediatric Neurology Outdoor and Child Development Centre. A detailed history of antenatal, natal, and postnatal events taken and thorough examination was performed to stratify children in proper topographical and physiological classification.Results:Mothers of 47.7% CP children were primigravida and 17.7% mothers had anemia during pregnancy. Among natal factors, asphyxia contributed to maximum cases (52.2%). Seizure in postnatal life was the second most common risk factor for CP after asphyxia. Spastic CP (84.4%) was the most common physiological type, and quadriplegia (56.6%) was the most common topographical type observed in this study. Intellectual disability (47.7%) followed by epilepsy (41.6%) was the most common comorbidity.Conclusion:Even with the advancement of health-care system, asphyxia is the most common risk factor, and spastic quadriplegia is the most common type of CP. There is still a need of improving the health facilities to overcome this costly and common neuromotor disability. Widespread knowledge of common risk factors that can predispose to CP can prevent the CP development to some extent and knowledge of clinical spectrum, and comorbidities can improve their targeted treatment which can improve their growth and social participation.

Background: Cerebral palsy is the most common and costly form of chronic motor disability that begins in childhood. Aims of the study were to identify etiology and risk factors of CP*, to find correlation between the etiology and clinical type of CP* in children below age of 5 years.Methods: analytical study done in indoor patients at civil hospital, Ahmedabad from October 2014 to September 2016.Results: Overall incidence of cerebral palsy in indoor patients was 0.78 per 100 patients. Most common age of presentation is 1-3 years. Majority of cases have perinatal factors as etiology followed by postnatal etiology. Most common type of CP was spastic type. Most common type of topographical CP was spastic quadriplegic. Major symptom for which they admitted in the hospital was convulsion.Conclusions: Majority of cases had perinatal factors as etiology author can prevent CP* by providing primary prevention, specific prevention and improving antenatal and intra-natal care. Disease progression of CP* can be halted by secondary prevention. Maximization of function can be done by tertiary prevention.
