Abstract

To describe and characterize the prevalence and quality of pain in a population-based community sample of children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Outcomes were assessed from 2 domains of the World Health Organization International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health: body structure/function (upper limb spans, modified Ashworth scale, Tardieu scale, sensory function), activities-participation (Assessment of Motor and Process Skills), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL), and self-perception (Harter Self-Perception Profile). There were 107 participants of age (mean, 95% confidence interval) 8.94 years (8.23 to 9.65); 61 (57%) were boys and 58 (54%) had hemiplegia affecting the right side. Fifty-one (48%) reported pain. Pain mostly affected the involved side (n=28, 55%) and lower limb (n=19, 37%). Eighteen (35%) reported moderate to severe pain. Thirty-five (69%) said pain impacted on movement/activity and was of an aching quality (n=29, 57%). Mean (95% confidence interval) quality of life according to Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory was significantly lower for children experiencing pain compared with children experiencing no pain [parent 50.2 (45.9 to 54.5) vs. 60.1 (55.1 to 65.1), P<0.01; child 60.5...Continue Reading
