Cerebral palsy (CP) represents a group of permanent movement and posture disorders attributed to non-progressive disturbances that occurred in the developing fetal or infant brain. As a multifaceted neurological condition, CP affects various aspects of a child's physical health, including muscle tone, motor skills, and balance. Among the myriad challenges faced by children with CP, feeding difficulties are notably prevalent, significantly impacting their nutritional status and overall well-being. This article delves into the nature of feeding problems among pediatric cerebral palsy patients, evaluates the efficacy of various feeding interventions, and discusses their implications for enhancing the nutritional well-being of this vulnerable population.
