ImpactModerate impact
Both posts underline the relevance of understanding mobility needs in children with CP, suggesting a moderate impact on awareness or practice.
Abstract in brief
- The study analyzed 89 children with cerebral palsy (CP) to understand patterns in mobility device use, finding that most had Medicaid insurance, and device use increased with age and severity of motor impairment.
- The most common devices were lower-extremity orthoses, with children in the most severe GMFCS level (V) using significantly more devices, including wheelchairs and standers, compared to less affected children.
- Income and insurance status did not significantly influence device use, highlighting that access to mobility devices in children with CP relates more to age and functional level than socioeconomic factors.]

How does age and functional ability impact mobility device use in children with cerebral palsy? This study found that as age and Gross Motor Functional Classification System (GMFCS) level increased, so did the number and types of devices used. https://t.co/ldl2kGMXv6
