  • Title: The importance of good nutrition in children with cerebral palsy.
    Author: Rempel G.
    Journal: Phys Med Rehabil Clin N Am; 2015 Feb; 26(1):39-56. PubMed ID: 25479778.
    Abstract:
    Poor nutritional status, which is common in children with cerebral palsy (CP), has generated considerable interest because of its wide-ranging impact on the children's health and well-being. Understanding the causes of poor nutrition, and the appropriate measurements required to interpret the nutritional status in children with CP, are integral to developing appropriate nutritional intervention strategies. Focusing attention on improving nutrition early in the lives of children with CP affords families and care providers with a unique opportunity for intervention, which may result in better outcomes for the children.
