ABSTRACT

Introduction: Cerebral palsy is a new name for a disorder that has affected children for millennia. It is now defined as a permanent but not unchanging disorder of posture and movement resulting from a non-progressive encephalopathy in an immature brain, the cause may be of pre, peri, or postnatal with a prevalence of one to two per thousand live births according to global statistics.
Objective: To determine the efficacy of the rehabilitation program of the walk applied.
Method: We performed a prospective epidemiological research, observational and longitudinal cutting. The sample consisted of 30 children who we apply the rehabilitation program, cutting evaluation is performed at 15 and 21 months.
Results: risk factors were present in a large number of patient antenatal being the highest incidence in the case of the predominant tone alterations hypertonia with different topography and in clinical diagnosis diparesias topographic end. Children with cerebral palsy who managed the march began rehabilitation before 3-4 months.
Conclusions: a high proportion of children achieved independent walking between 15 and 21 months. Motor compensation was achieved in 4 patients and improved the aesthetic pattern of the march, the remaining patients.
