This resource from the Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports summarises the best available evidence interventions for preventing and managing cerebral palsy.

Cerebral palsy, the most common physical disability in childhood, has seen a remarkable shift in its landscape over the past decade, particularly in high-income countries. Advances in early diagnosis, prevention, and treatment have led to a 30% reduction in incidence and a notable decline in severity, with more children now able to walk and fewer experiencing co-occurring disabilities. As the evidence base for CP interventions grows rapidly—with over 200 new systematic reviews since 2013—this evolving field presents both opportunities and challenges for clinicians, families, and policymakers seeking to navigate and apply the latest, most effective therapies.
