Cerebral Palsy and Motor Delay Cerebral palsy is one of the most common causes of chronic childhood disability, occuring in 1.4-2.7% births. Improved survival of extremely preterm infants may be increasing the number of children diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Between 5 and 8 percent of infants weighing less than 3 pounds (1,500 grams) at birth develop cerebral palsy (primarily diplegic cerebral palsy); they are 25 times more likely to develop cerebral palsy than infants who are bornfull term. However, preemies still constitute a small minority of the overall number of children with cerebral palsy.

"Cerebral" refers to the brain and "palsy" to a disorder of movement or posture. It is neither progressive nor communicable. It is also not "curable" in the accepted sense, although education, therapy and applied technology can help persons with cerebral palsy lead productive lives. It is not a disease and should never be referred to as such. It can range from mild to severe. Back to the Table of Contents Incidence Between 500,000 - 700,000 Americans have some degree of cerebral palsy. About 3,000 babies are born with the disorder each year, and another 500 or so acquire it in the early years of life.

The prevalence of cerebralpalsy has remained very stable for many years at this percentage. http://www.twinenterprises.com/cp/

Welcome to the Cerebral Palsy Resource Center Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the most common causes of chronic childhood disability, with a frequency of 1.4 - 2.7% of live births. The prevalence of cerebral palsy has remained very stable for many years at this percentage. While the improved survival of extremely preterm infants may result in an increasing number of children with cerebral palsy, preemies constitute a small minority of the overall number of disabled children. About 10% of preemies born at less than 1000 grams will eventually be diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Estimates range from 17 - 60% of CP cases that have no known perinatal or neonatal etiology. Children who have mild motor impairment and who are suspected of cerebral palsy at one year of age are often free of motor symptoms by early school age. These children, however, are more likely to have other developmental problems, including mental retardation, learning disability, seizures, and speech problems than those with no early motor problems. Early identification and treatment of cerebral palsy and/or other related developmental problems may stabilize the impairment and reduce associated disability. ( Overview by Dr. Sheena Carter

PDF version Jennifer's Story Jen was born 11 weeks early and weighed only 2½ pounds. The doctors were surprised to see what a strong, wiggly girl she was. But when Jen was just a few days old, she stopped breathing and was put on a ventilator. After 24 hours she was able to breathe on her own again. The doctors did a lot of tests to find out what had happened, but they couldn't find anything wrong. The rest of Jen's time in the hospital was quiet, and after two months she was able to go home. Everyone thought she would be just fine. At home, Jen's mom noticed that Jen was really sloppy when she drank from her bottle. As the months went by, Jen's mom noticed other things she didn't remember seeing with Jen's older brother. At six months, Jen didn't hold her head up straight. She cried a lot and would go stiff with rage. When Jen went back for her six-month checkup, the doctor was concerned by what he saw and what Jen's mom told him. He suggested that Jen's mom take the little girl to a doctor who could look closely at Jen's development. Jen's mom took her to a developmental specialist who finally put a name to all the little things that hadn't seemed right with Jen cerebral palsy
