TREATMENT OF CONTRACTURES IN SPASTIC FORMS OF CEREBRAL PALSY IN CHILDREN.
Abstract
The purpose of the study: To ensure the formation of acceptable movement skills in children with cerebral palsy by improving the diagnosis and applying staged plaster dressings to the lower extremities.\n\nMaterials and methods: This work is based on the study of the results of treatment of 35 patients aged 1 year to 5 years with a spastic form of cerebral palsy of the lower extremities, who received outpatient and inpatient treatment in the clinic of the Tashkent Pediatric Medical Institute for the period 2016 - 2018 years. When collecting the material, we used the following clinical research methods: complaints, anamnesis morbi and anamnesis vitae, general orthopedic examination and electroneuromyography (ENMG).\n\nResults and discussions: The study determined that if treatment is started before the age of 2 years, then 41% of children manage to get good results. With the age of the child, these results decrease. Treatment of spastic forms of cerebral palsy should be early, systematic, differentiated and comprehensive. A significant role in this disease is played by phased plastering, especially to eliminate the shortening of the Achilles tendon. It is necessary to follow all the rules of treatment and rehabilitation in order to subsequently achieve the desired results.
