Assigning F-words as Ingredients of Interventions for Children with Cerebral Palsy Functioning at GMFCS IV and V: A Scoping Review Protocol

E. Longo, R. Monteiro, Á. Hidalgo-Robles, G. Paleg, C. Shrader, and A. C. De Campos

This medical journal article explores published studies on early interventions in young children with cerebral palsy using the ‘F-words for child development’ framework. The authors conclude that implementing the ‘F-words’ ("Family", "Functioning", "Fitness", "Future", "Friends", "Fun", and "Other Factors"), framework is beneficial for young children with CP. These findings once again emphasize the beneficial impact conductive education can have on children with cerebral palsy through early intervention services.
