Summary

Cerebral palsy (CP) is defined as a neurodevelopmental disorder in which there are abnormalities of motor skills, muscle tone ,and, movement and is caused by injury to the developing brain. Risk factors for cerebral palsy are most probably intrauterine exposure to infection or inflammation and disorders of coagulation.Cerebral palsy (CP) is classified as Spastic, Athetoid, Tremor, Rigidity, Ataxic, Atonic, and Mixed.

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the most common cause of physical disability in early childhood and overall, the CP rate is between 2 and 3 per 1000 live births.There are several interventions to manage cerebral palsy depending upon the severity and type of cerebral palsy and hence requires a multidisciplinary setting for proper improvement and management.One of the important intervention is conductive education including conductive exercises (CE).

Conductive education (CE) is a useful educational system for the management of motor disabled individuals whose disability and dysfunction was due to the damage to the central nervous system, mainly at the pre-, peri- or post-natal period of life. Conductive exercises basically include task-oriented learning within highly structured programs and conductors who are trained in special education and therapy administer the conductive education program.
