In a prospective study it was found that cerebral palsy constituted 0.29% of total paediatric outdoor cases during the study period of 1988-1990. Seventy-five children suffering from cerebral palsy were studied at SN Children Hospital, Allahabad. Male to female ratio was 1:2. There were 42.8% cases who belonged to the age between one and 2 years. Hypertonic cases were predominant over hypotonic cases (3:1). Hemiplegia was commonest (68%) while triplegia was least common (2.7%). There were 24.5% cases who were mentally retarded. Hypertonic cases improved more frequently than hypotonic cases. An early management by paediatric physiotherapy may play an important role in the treatment of cerebral palsy.
在一项前瞻性研究中发现，在1988 - 1990年的研究期间，脑瘫占小儿门诊病例总数的0.29%。对阿拉哈巴德SN儿童医院的75名脑瘫患儿进行了研究。男女比例为1:2。42.8%的病例年龄在1至2岁之间。高张力型病例多于低张力型病例（3:1）。偏瘫最为常见（68%），而三肢瘫最不常见（2.7%）。24.5%的病例存在智力障碍。高张力型病例比低张力型病例改善得更频繁。小儿物理治疗的早期干预可能在脑瘫治疗中发挥重要作用。
