Cerebral palsy(CP)is a global,complex and lifelong health issue with a relatively high disease burden in low-resource countries.The benefits of a national disease registry in general and a national CP registry in particular are twofold,namely the public health and the clinical disease-related benefits.A national CP quality registry has the potential to inform health planning and spending at national,regional and continental levels.In turn,this can help allocate and manage the relevant material and human resources in a more predictable and efficient manner.
