summary

In the first two months, my cousin finally gave birth to a fat boy, very lovely. But gradually, my cousin found something wrong, her son will not turn over, and often cry, she thought his son is hungry, but the food did not significantly ease. When I went to the hospital for examination, I knew that I had cerebral palsy. There were many kinds of cerebral palsy, but my cousin didn't know what type of cerebral palsy his son was suffering from, or what the cause was. Now I'll tell you what the classification basis of children's cerebral palsy will be.

What is the basis of classification of cerebral palsy in children

First: acquired infant hemiplegia: This is one of the classification basis of cerebral palsy in children. It is usually the hemiplegia of normal infants aged 3-18 months within a few hours, with or without aphasia. It often starts with epileptic attack, and may not be aware of hemiplegia after attack. The younger the onset age, the more complete language recovery, the ability to receive education can be reduced to varying degrees, the degree of recovery of motor function is not the same, when the function defect is serious, there may be hand and foot movement, tremor and ataxia. This type of cerebral palsy is more common. Generally speaking, if the baby is born within 18 months, it is easy to find cerebral palsy.

Second: the type of cerebral palsy in children: This is the basis of classification of cerebral palsy in children. Ataxia accounts for 15% of all patients, and the lesions are in the cerebellum and its connecting fibers. With the increase of age, the symptoms can be improved due to compensatory function and learning process. The patient had ataxia, unstable gait, poor recovery rotation, deviation of finger nose test and low muscle tension. In clinical medicine, this type of cerebral palsy is rare, once it appears, it will be more serious.

Third: congenital infant hemiplegia: This is one of the classification basis of children's cerebral palsy. Usually, after birth, the parents observed that the children's bilateral limb activities are different. If they only use one hand to take things or grab things, they often did not pay attention to it. They didn't realize the seriousness of the problem until 4-6 months. Lower limb injury is usually found when infants learn to stand or walk. Children can sit up and walk on their own, but a few months later than normal infants. Examination shows that children's tendon reflex is obviously hyperactive, upper limb is flexion, adduction and pronation, foot is equinovarus. If it is congenital cerebral palsy, then it has a great relationship with the child's parents.

matters needing attention

The key to the treatment of cerebral palsy in children lies in the early, so the symptoms of cerebral palsy have been found and treated in the brain hospital in time. In addition, parents should first learn the correct way to take care of children with cerebral palsy, such as sleeping posture, usually placed in bed posture, walking posture, playing posture and so on. If children suffer from cerebral palsy, there are many requirements for diet. Most of them eat at noon and in the evening in the morning. If the conditions are better, they can have a snack at noon and in the morning, or go to eat every period of time to increase the child's appetite.
