A Novel Intervention Technology for Cerebral Palsy: Brain Stimulation

A common pediatric disorder with posture and motor dysfunction in neurological diseases is known as cerebral palsy (CP). Recently, a series of effective techniques have been developed for treatment of CP. These promising methods need high-tech equipment for brain stimulation and mainly classified into invasive and no-invasive approaches. This study aimed to introduce these techniques for treatment of patients who suffer from CP. The potential and performance of currently available brain stimulation techniques have been mentioned in detail. Moreover, the clinical application, safety, efficacy and challenges of these methods have been discussed. Here we review the recent advances in the CP treatment with an emphasis on brain stimulation techniques.
