ABSTRACT

Cerebral palsy refers to a non progressive brain injury syndrome caused by various reasons during the early stages of brain development in infants from before birth to one month after birth. In recent years, with the rapid development of medical technology, the improvement of neonatal rescue technology, the development of perinatal medicine and the change of people's living habits, the incidence rate of cerebral palsy worldwide has also increased year by year with the significant increase of neonatal survival rate. Among them, intellectual disability, as one of the important factors affecting the growth and development of cerebral palsy, has a serious impact on the growth and development of children with cerebral palsy. Intellectual disability not only limits the cognitive ability, social interaction, and learning potential of children, but also has a profound impact on their daily self-care ability. This article reviews the latest developments in research on pediatric cerebral palsy in recent years, aiming to provide a comprehensive overview of intellectual disabilities in children with cerebral palsy from the perspectives of etiology, pathogenesis, and treatment methods. The goal is to provide more scientific and systematic theoretical support and practical guidance for the treatment of intellectual disabilities in children with cerebral palsy, promote further standardization and optimization of clinical practice, and provide useful references for the comprehensive rehabilitation and improvement of their quality of life.
