Continuation of Rehabilitation Program for Infantile Paralysis and Other Static Lesions of CNS

Infantile Paralysis

Static Injuries of Central Nervous System in Children also called cerebral palsy, produce different effects in the intellectual spheres of language and psychomotor hindering the child’s interaction with the external environment and family.

The program proposed will help patients incorporate and improve, not just some of the functions, but also to achieve greater independence and communication with family members.

Most patients require 28 additional days of rehabilitation treatment to consolidate the progress made in the initial program. For this reason we propose a second program of continuation for those patients who can stand on their own or with the help of his companion without requiring nursing care. 

The comprehensive and intensive program proposed by the Republic of Cuba is intended to improve many functions with a system of comprehensive and intensive rehabilitation.
