The four diametrically opposed tonic reflex movements of the foot that can be elicited in normal children throughout the first year represent the peripheral segments of proximally cascaded reflex balance recovery systems. Clinical persistence of one or more of these obligatory movements in cerebral palsied children may habitually distort foot posture and recruit proximal reflex muscle activity and associated hypertonus. Inhibitive casting has proved to be a significant useful adjunct for management of both foot deformity and associated proximal hypertonicity.
在正常儿童的第一年中可引出的足部四个沿直径相对的紧张性反射运动代表了近端级联反射平衡恢复系统的外周部分。脑瘫儿童中这些必然出现的运动中的一种或多种在临床上持续存在可能会习惯性地扭曲足部姿势，并引发近端反射性肌肉活动及相关的张力亢进。抑制性支具已被证明是治疗足部畸形和相关近端张力亢进的一种非常有用的辅助手段。
