Cerebral palsy in children, commonly known as cerebral palsy, refers to an immature stage of brain development caused by non-progressive brain injury within one month after birth. It is a syndrome characterized by abnormalities in posture and various motor dysfunctions, representing a perinatal central nervous system disorder in children. The lesion involves the brain and limbs, and is often accompanied by symptoms such as intellectual developmental delay, epilepsy, behavioral abnormalities, psychiatric disorders, and impairments in vision, hearing, and speech.
