The recently developed 5-level Gross Motor Functional Classification System (GMFCS) differentiates children with CP by their level of functional mobility.

A scale called the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) classifies the levels of cerebral palsy and the effects to expect at each one.

The condition typically occurs due to an injury to the brain or abnormal brain development before birth. Approximately 8% of cases occur due to brain injuries experienced after birth. Cerebral palsy ...

Such children and young people will typically be at Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) level IV or V. Further research is needed to evaluate the clinical and cost effectiveness of ...

Among 6- to 15-year-olds with cerebral palsy, gait training with a wearable, untethered exoskeleton robot improved gross motor function, a randomized clinical trial showed.
