Impact of social disadvantage on cerebral palsy severity

In Australia, socio-economic disadvantage at birth impacts adversely on cerebral palsy severity at age 5 years

Research

Predicting respiratory hospital admissions in young people with cerebral palsy: A 3-year longitudinal study using linked data

Early identification of oropharyngeal dysphagia and the management of seizures may help prevent serious respiratory illness

Research

Cerebral palsy and genomics: an international consortium

Accumulating evidence of the role of genetic variation in CP aetiology suggests that individuals with CP should undergo genomic testing as part of their diagnostic workup

Research

A systematic review of risk factors for cerebral palsy in children born at term in developed countries

The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review in order to identify the risk factors for cerebral palsy (CP) in children born at term.

Research

A special supplement: Findings from the Australian Cerebral Palsy Register, birth years 1993 to 2006

A downward trend in rates of CP in those born extremely preterm was evident over at least three consecutive periods across all three regions.

Research

Cerebral palsy and perinatal mortality after pregnancy-induced hypertension across the gestational age spectrum: Observations of a reconstructed total population cohort

This reconstructed total population cohort paper investigates the relationship between cerebral palsy & pregnancy induced hypertension.

Research

Antecedents of cerebral palsy and perinatal death in term and late preterm singletons

The odds of total cerebral palsy after potentially asphyxial birth events or inflammation were modestly increased.

Research

Eating and drinking abilities and respiratory and oral health in children and young adults with cerebral palsy

To investigate the potential risk factors of respiratory illness (ethnicity, oral health, and eating and drinking ability) in children and young adults with cerebral palsy.

Research

Application of Inertial Measurement Units and Machine Learning Classification in Cerebral Palsy: Randomized Controlled Trial

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a physical disability that affects movement and posture. Approximately 17 million people worldwide and 34,000 people in Australia are living with CP. In clinical and kinematic research, goniometers and inclinometers are the most commonly used clinical tools to measure joint angles and positions in children with CP.

Implementation of an Early Communication Intervention for Young Children with Cerebral Palsy Using Single-Subject Research Design

The implementation of an intervention protocol aimed at increasing vocal complexity in three pre-linguistic children with cerebral palsy (two males, starting age 15 months, and one female, starting age 16 months) was evaluated utilising a repeated ABA case series design. The study progressed until the children were 36 months of age. Weekly probes with trained and untrained items were administered across each of three intervention blocks.
