Short and Longterm Evolution of Self-care and Functional Mobility After Single Event Multilevel Surgery in Children and Adolescents With Spastic Diplegic Cerebral Palsy
In Brief
An observational study evaluating single event multilevel surgery for Cerebral Palsy. Completed, enrolled 34 participants.
Detailed Summary
Purpose: The aim of this study is to assess the short- and midterm evolution of self-care and functional mobility after multilevel surgery in children and adolescents with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy and to identify which factors could have an impact on these outcomes. Methods: Thirty-four participants were included. All participants will be evaluated before surgery, at 9 weeks, 6,12,18, 24, 36 and 60 months. Self-care was assessed with the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory-NL (PEDI-NL). The Mobility Questionnaire47 (MobQues47) and Functional Mobility Scale (FMS) were used to measure functional mobility. Interactions between CP, personal and environmental characteristics and evolution in time were assessed.
