Methods： 104 CP children were treated mainly with physiotherapy and acupuncture, together with occupational therapy, sensory integration and electrical stimulation. Gross Motor Function Measure （GMFM） was used to assess the effects of treatment. Results： After treatment for 3.29＋0.80 months, the majority of CP children improved their IQ and limb symptoms, with decreased abnormal posture, increased muscle strength and improved motor developmental function. GMFM88 and GMFM66 scores had significantly increased after treatment. Conclusions： Combined treatment with Chinese and Western Medicine has confirmed effects on CP children.展开更多
