PY - 2013 T2 - Meeting the Physical Therapy Needs of Children AB - This case study focuses on the physical therapy management of Kayla, a young woman with spastic, diplegic cerebral palsy (CP). Kayla is now 20 years old and a sophomore in college. She was born prematurely and has received physical therapy services in a variety of settings since infancy. She has been followed for early intervention, early childhood, school-based, outpatient, and home health physical therapy services. At this time she does not regularly see a physical therapist, but does continue with occasional sessions to monitor adaptive equipment and to address episodes of foot pain or back pain. Kayla walks in her home/dormitory settings and on campus using bilateral forearm crutches. For longer distances, she uses a motorized cart. SN - PB - F. A.
