Influence of the Upper Limb Motor Deficit on Functional Independence in Patients with Cerebral Palsy by Corina SPOREA, Dumitru FERECHIDE

“…In over 80% of the CP cases there is an upper limb disorder, mainly manifested by the decrease in hand control and the presence of contractures, which, in time, lead to the adoption of abnormal postures which affect the abilities of the CP patients’ hands. The aim of this study was to identify the way the motor deficit at upper limb level – reflected by coordination disturbances and by the condition of the three fingered (tripod) grasp – influences the CP patient’s functional independence. …”
