Combined Classifications
of Cerebral Palsy

Brain damage occurring before, during or shortly after birth can cause a baby to suffer permanent disability and functional impairment, often characteristic of one or more of the several types of cerebral palsy. CP may be described where the type of movement disorder and the number of limbs involved are combined.

When medical malpractice during labor and delivery or shortly after birth is the cause, Cerebral Palsy may have been avoided.
