Approaches to treating and rehabilitating children with cerebral palsy now focus on maximizing their environment and increasing their independence in everyday life. The study of different techniques allows us to consider the needs and goals of families when developing individualized treatment and rehabilitation programs, contributing to the optimal development of the child.
Purpose - to study the criteria for developing individual rehabilitation programs, analyzing the examination of children with cerebral palsy, evaluating family-centered care, researching multidisciplinary rehabilitation teams, and analyzing the provision of medical and rehabilitation services and their impact on the quality of life of children with cerebral palsy.
A comprehensive and structured search of scientific sources in scientometric databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, MEDLINE, and specialized journals in pediatrics and neurology was performed to conduct a systematic literature review. The literature search and analysis were conducted over the past 10 years (from 2012 to 2022). For the bibliometric analysis, the method of data analysis using the VOSviewer program was used.
Several important aspects related to the provision of rehabilitation services to children with cerebral palsy and their relationship with classification systems and other aspects are considered and analyzed. The influence of the provision of rehabilitation services by a multidisciplinary rehabilitation team on the functional state of children with cerebral palsy according to the level of the classification system of basic motor functions is substantiated. The study also investigated how the provision of medical and rehabilitation services affects the quality of life of children with cerebral palsy. All of these aspects of the study aimed to improve the provision of services to children with cerebral palsy and their functional status and quality of life.
Conclusions. The research demonstrates the need for an in-depth analysis of the examination of children with cerebral palsy and the introduction of family-oriented care. It was found that the development of multidisciplinary rehabilitation teams is effective in achieving the best results in developing children with cerebral palsy. The importance of further research to improve individual rehabilitation programs and improve the quality of life of these children is also substantiated.
