Mixed-Method Follow-Up of Toddler-Aged Children with Spastic Cerebral Palsy After an Intense Physical/Occupational Therapy Intervention
Many months following an intense physical and occupational therapeutic intervention, based on predicted age-appropriate percentiles for motor function, roughly one-third of the children exceeded expectations, and one-third did not meet expectations. Despite the time invested in the intense protocol, caregivers felt the intervention was largely responsible for improvements in their children's functioning.
