Considerations in management of the child with cerebral palsy.

.
Pediatr Ann, 5 (4): 10--27 (April 1976)

Abstract

Throughout this article, the reader will recognize that the term "management" rather than "treatment" has been used when referring to the child with cerebral palsy. Treatment implies a reasonable chance for cure, something that is currently impossible in cerebral palsy. "Management" is a more honest term, implying consideration of all of the problems of the child with cerebral palsy and his family and bringing to bear those elements of decision making that lead to maximal benefit to the patient.
