“…Following motor learning principles, intensity, duration, and variability in intervention are important to drive retention of treatment effect. The addition of virtual reality helps to increase engagement, particularly in paediatric rehabilitation programmes . Furthermore, the development of extensive methods of biofeedback‐assisted rehabilitation can be valuable in supporting patients and allowing therapists to communicate treatment goals more effectively.…”

“…The addition of virtual reality helps to increase engagement, particularly in paediatric rehabilitation programmes. 14 Furthermore, the development of extensive methods of biofeedback-assisted rehabilitation 15 can be valuable in supporting patients and allowing therapists to communicate treatment goals more effectively. Currently there is no established optimal protocol for gait training as an intervention in children and young adults with CP, with limited comparison between gait training methods in the literature and consequently no evidence about which method is most effective.…”

Functional gait training is a safe, feasible, and effective intervention to improve walking ability. Functional gait training shows larger positive effects on walking speed than standard physical therapy. Walking endurance and gait-related gross motor function can also benefit from functional gait training. Addition of virtual reality and biofeedback shows promise to increase engagement and improve outcomes.

“…A large number of children with CP have some type of cognitive delay [3]. It is estimated that 40 to 65 % of children with CP have intellectual disability (ID) [4,5]. Studies show that the intellectual capacity of children with CP is lower than in the typical population.…”

Objectives The aim of this study is to determine the connection of gross motor skills (locomotor skills and object control) and the degree of associated intellectual disability (ID) in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Participants and methods The study sample included 54 children with CP and associated ID age 5 years to 6 years and 11 months. For the assessment of tested skills, The Gross Motor Function Classification System-Expanded and Revised (GMFCS-E&R), Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence-Fourth Edition (WPPSI-IV) and Test of Gross Motor Development Second Edition (TGMD-2) were used. Results The results of this study indicate better quality of locomotor skills than object control skills in children with CP and associated ID. Children with CP and mild ID have better quality of locomotor skills and object control, than children with CP and moderate ID. Differences between these 2 groups of children are presented relative to GMFCS-E&R levels. Conclusion This study has determined significant interconnection of the quality of gross motor functions and intellectual capacity in preschool children with CP. This should be considered when creating more detailed individual developmental rehabilitation plan in children with CP and associated ID and predict adequate measures of developmental stimulation.

“…Most surveillance systems distinguish cases in which motor impairment is obviously acquired postneonatally, usually following cerebral infection or head trauma [16]. Other infection complications, cerebrovascular accidents, trauma, hypoxia, gastroenteritis, and other causes of acute encephalopathy, neoplasmas, and exposure toxins were other reasons that are reported [112]. Infection, however, remains an important cause of acquired CP despite a fall in the overall numbers more than 30 years of the study.…”

CP is not a diagnosis but an umbrella term for many clinical descriptions. It refers to a group of permanent disorders of the development of movement and posture, causing activity limitation, that are attributed to nonprogressive disturbances that occurred in the developing fetal or infant brain. The motor disorerders of cerebral palsy are often accompanied by disturbances of sensation, perception, cognition. First description was made in th century by William Little. CP prevalence is generally reported aroundper live births in both developed and developing countries even if for very different reasons . "dditionally for term children CP prevalence is per live births. This rates are -times higher in preterm birth. The etiology of CP has been reported very diverse and multifactorial as prenatal, perinatal and postnatal. The causes and risk factors are congenital, genetic, inflammatory, infectious, anoxic, traumatic and metabolic. Knowledge of the epidemiology and etiology of cerebral palsy is important. Thus, at least in some cases, early diagnosis and prevention can be achieved.
