ABSTRACT

Antecedents: The cerebral palsy is the most frequent cause of pediatric incapacity. In South Baja California, Mexico, 3,491 children and adolescents live with incapacity (1.4% of the population) the motor type represents 27.3%; 17.6% of population older than three years do not go to the school. 50% only finished elementary level. The objective was to relate school integration to the gross motor function and manual ability in adolescents with cerebral palsy. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, descriptive, prospective study in adolescents among 10 and 18 years. All patients were evaluated between February and September of 2011.The GMFCS and MACS scales were applied. Results: 70 patients were included ( X- 12.74 years), 58.6% of masculine sex, predominant motor alteration was the spastic one (84.3%), topographically the quadriparesis was the most common (51.4%), and the severe affectation was most frequent (47.1%). 64.3% were integrated to the school. It was association between school integration and the clinical topography (p = .025), severity (p = .000), the gross motor function (p = .005) and the manual ability (p = .001). Conclusions: We found that the less affected children and teenagers in the clinical presentation of cerebral palsy have more possibilities to integrate to the school.
