Diagnosis

  1. Neuro-paediatric physical examination (in children from 0 to 18 years).
    Reflects the general development of the child and the condition of CNS and its conductive tracts.

  2. Motoscopy (in children from 0 to 18 years).
    Evaluates the spontaneous motor ability of the child.

  3. Neuro-kinesiologic diagnosis to Voita (in children up to 18 months).
    Evaluates the CNS reactivity, the spontaneous CNS activity and the presence and dynamics of the pathologic and primitive reflexes, clearing the extent of desorganisation of CNS and the extent of the co-ordinational damages and the risk of developing CP related with them.

  4. Classification System for Gross Motor Functions (in children at 1 to 12 years).
    Descriptive evaluation of the motor functions at five levels.

  5. Gross Motor Function Measure (for children with CP).
    Score evaluation of motor skills.

  6. Ashworth’s Scale (for children at 1 to 18 years).
    Evaluation of the level of spasticity of the damaged muscles.

  7. Gonio-metry (for children at 6 to 18 years).
    Evaluation of the volume of active and passive movements in the joints.

  8. Electoencephalography (for children at 1 to 18 years).
    Examination of the cerebral bioelectric activity regarding the estimation of the kinesitherapeutic load and the prescribing of other therapeutic methods.

  9. Electromyography (for children up to 18 years).
    Exmination of nerve and neuro-muscular conductance and excitability.

  10. Trans-fontaneal echo-encephalography (for children up to 6 months).
    Visualization of the brain structure.
