Cerebral palsy (CP) is the leading cause of motor disability in children, affecting 125,000 people in France and with 1800 new cases per year. Prematurity remains a major risk factor, although children born at term represent 52% of children with cerebral palsy in France. Recent international and national (Haute Autorité de Santé, Troubles du neurodéveloppement - Repérage et orientation des enfants à risque, February 2020) recommendations emphasize the importance of continuous, early, and systematic management of infants at risk of cerebral palsy before 6 months of corrected age (CA), which is beneficial on the motor, cognitive, and social development of these children into preschool age. The principles of early identification and therapeutic intervention, which are at the core of multi-professional care, are becoming better known. The priorities of this care are: the identification of high-risk infants, the continuity of follow-up from the neonatal period and after the return home in order to detect motor developmental disorders as early as possible, with a the global approach centered on the family. From the neonatal period, parents have traumatic experiences and are subjected to sources of stress. A framework of trust must be established during hospitalization, and preventive, multidisciplinary post-hospitalization follow-up is necessary. Informing families about the risks of motor developmental disorders that may affect their child and about the necessary follow-up in the first months is essential to obtain their adherence to an early course of action. This should take place even before parents have noticed abnormalities, and without waiting for a proven disability. However, it is necessary to support parents in these difficult situations by trying to reduce stress and to preserve the role of the parent. Finally, the ESPaCe survey reveals several of the challenges faced by parents of children with CP: difficulty in finding trained therapists, low frequency of sessions, heterogeneity of rehabilitation techniques, and 75% of parents felt excluded from care and wish to be more involved. Fondation Motrice has therefore suggested developing recommendations for good clinical practice based on scientific evidence to address these difficulties. In this context, the physiotherapists of the CHU Dijon Bourgogne have implemented the recommended early identification tools in the traditional perinatal follow-up pathway by collaborating with the neonatologists and rehabilitation physicians of the CHU Dijon Bourgogne. After the child goes home from the hospital, professionals can ensure continuity and adapt developmental support care by continuing to accompany the families. The follow-up pathway currently offered to these high-risk children includes a motor assessment at 4, 9 and 24 months of corrected age, with an additional consultation at 18 months of corrected age depending on the child's neurodevelopment. However, the psychological impact of this type of pathway on the parents, their satisfaction and their level of adherence to this care pathway are currently unknown. Therefore, the objective of the DéStreSs study is to describe the level of parental stress and whether is varies over time, the consumption of care, parent satisfaction, and adherence to the follow-up program currently offered at the Dijon Bourgogne University Hospital.
Ataxic CP is one type of cerebral palsy. children with ataxic cerebral palsy have trouble with balance and coordination. They may walk with their legs farther apart than other kids and have a hard time with activities that use small hand movements, like writing. Some also have trouble with depth perception This means being able to accurately judge how close or far away something is
Application of Involvement Matrix in young people with Cerebral Palsy (GMFCS levels IV and V) from 12 to 17 years old with the purpose of improving the participation of this group in community leisure activities
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of valbenazine versus placebo on improving chorea in participants aged 6 to 70 years who have dyskinesia due to cerebral palsy (DCP) with choreiform movements.
The investigators hope to use MRI biomarkers to identify and characterize sensorimotor network disruption patterns associated with chronic pain and sensory deficits in CP. Investigators will use existing information in the medical record as well as subjective reports from interview, physical exam data, and anatomical and functional MRI data to non-invasively identify brain injury correlates of pain and sensory deficits.
A mixed longitudinal design study will be carried out to explore the onset and time course of morphological muscle changes on a macroscopic level in children with spastic cerebral palsy (SCP). Therefore, this project aims to (1) describe the macroscopic morphological muscle changes with increasing age and (2) evaluate the onset and development of muscle alterations in relation to the brain lesion (e.g., timing, extent and location), to the neuromuscular impairments and to treatment. Overall, this project will evaluate the macroscopic muscle properties by means of 3D freehand ultrasound (3DfUS).
In patients with cerebral palsy, delayed gastric emptying and esophageal sphincter dysfunction are very commonly observed. Pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents causes aspiration pneumonia, which greatly affects patients' prognosis, including hospital stay and mortality. In the case of patients with cerebral palsy, there is a limitation in respiratory function, so more attention is required. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the risk of aspiration by measuring gastric volume after fasting for surgery in children with cerebral palsy.
