Objectives: This study is to investigate the method for assesment of cerebral palsy(CP), especislly focusing on function assesment
Methods: We searched the recent date of the publication and paper in Cerebral Palsy
Results: Measuring the function of children with cerebral palsy is mobility, self-care and social ability. Early adequate evaluation of motor development and prognosis of degree of long-term motor disability is very important not only for parents, but also for correct management of goal oriented rehabilitation treatment and for planning of preventive measures. 1. Gross Motor Function Classification System(GMFCS) is valuable to prognostication about gross motor progress in children with CP, using longitudinal observation. 2. Gross Motor Function Measure(GMFM) is the instrument most commonly used to measure gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy(CP). 3. Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory(PEDI) is one of the most commonly used assessments for children with a disability.
Conclusions: The functional Assesment of children with CP are used GMFCS, GMFM and PEDI.
