Between 2nd and 4th Birthdays
Level IChildren floor sit with both hands free
to manipulate objects. Movements in and out of floor sitting & standing are performed without adult assistance. Children walk as the preferred method of mobility without the need for any assistive mobility device.
![Page 57: Cerebral Palsy 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022050801/546f7937b4af9f0d188b45e1/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Level II
Children floor sit but may have difficulty with balance when both hands are free to manipulate objects. Movements in & out of sitting are performed without adult assistance. Children pull to stand on a stable surface. Children crawl on hands & knees with a reciprocal pattern, cruise Holding onto furniture and walk using an assistive mobility device as preferred Methods of mobility.
![Page 58: Cerebral Palsy 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022050801/546f7937b4af9f0d188b45e1/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Level III Children maintain floor sitting often by “W- sitting” (sitting between flexed &
internally rotated hips & knees) and may require adult assistance to assume sitting. Children creep on their stomach or crawl on hands and knees (often without reciprocal leg movements) as their primacy method of self- mobility. Children may pull to stand on a stable surface and cruise short distances. Children may walk short distances indoors using an assistive mobility device an adult assistance for steering and turning.
![Page 59: Cerebral Palsy 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022050801/546f7937b4af9f0d188b45e1/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)

Level IV Children sit on a chair but need adaptive
seating for trunk control and to maximize hand function . Children move in and out of chair sitting with assistance from an adult or a stable surface to push or pull up on with their arms. Children may best walk short distances with a walker and adult supervision but have difficulty turning & maintaining balance on uneven surfaces. Children are transported in the community. Children may achieve self- mobility using a power wheelchair.

MACS
2. Handles most objects but with somewhat reduced quality and/or speed of achievement.
Certain activities may be avoided or be achieved with some difficulty; alternative ways of performance might be used but manual abilities do not usually restrict independence in daily activities.

MACS
3. Handles objects with difficulty; needs help to prepare and/or modify activities.
The performance is slow and achieved with limited success regarding quality and quantity. Activities are performed independently if they have been set up or adapted.

MACS
4. Handles a limited selection of easily managed objects in adapted situations.
Performs parts of activities with effort and with limited success. Requires continuous support and assistance and/or adapted equipment, for even partial achievement of the activity.

Morbidity
Those children with severe spastic quadriplegia and poor nutritional status have been shown to have a high risk of dying
The most common cause of death for those at high risk was respiratory problems(59%),with epilepsy as the second most common cause of death.
![Page 75: Cerebral Palsy 1](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022050801/546f7937b4af9f0d188b45e1/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Mortality risk increased with increasing intellectual impairment, motor impairment & number of severe impairment.
With the exception of those children with profound learning difficulty, most children with c.p can expect survive into adulthood.
