Dr. Miller’s valuable resource helps members of the medical team navigate the complexity. Readers will become familiar with treatments that fall outside of their own disciplines while also benefiting from a review of current practices in their own fields. This comprehensive reference outlines the etiology of cerebral palsy and presents a description of muscle tone and movement problems. Dr. Miller discusses the theory and techniques used by physical and occupational therapists, and he provides suggestions for implementing an Individual Education Plan. Recommended treatment algorithms address common questions, such as how to select equipment. Detailed anatomical drawings supplement coverage of anatomy, surgical techniques, and specific local treatments. A companion CD-ROM includes videos of children with abnormal gaits and more than 400 interactive study questions.
