An electromyographic study of the orbicularis oris muscle of cerebral palsied spastic hemiplegicsBuckley, Robert R., 1925- January 1961 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The orbicularis oris muscle of fourteen individuals including seven cerebral palsied spastic hemplegics and seven normal individuals with Class I occlusion was examined electro-myographically to determine any differences in muscle activity on the right and left side of the lips. The age range was between eight years and seventeen years. No limitations were placed on age, sex, or race since the purpose of the study was to determine any differences in activity between the right and left sides of the orbicularis oris muscle. A six channel Polygraph Grass Model 5A was used with paired surface electrodes attached to each quadrant of the lips and connected to four channels of the Polygraph. When the lips were at rest, no muscle activity was detected for either group. When the lips were tested during voluntary swallowing, involuntary swallowing associated with straw drinking and holding the lips together, the activity was fairly equal and symmetrical in the normal group. However, in the cerebral palsied spastic hemiplegics, there was increased muscle activity in the orbicularis oris muscle on the hemiplegic side.

A study of the dietary habits of cerebral palsied childrenHori, Richard Ryoji, 1938- January 1965 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Dietary habits of 30 cerebral palsied children
were investigated in this study using seven-day intake
records obtained from their parents. Each child was
classified in terms of physiological and topographical
involvement, functional capacity, and mental retardation.
All food records were evaluated in terms of the
four food groups, and the nutritional adequacy and consistency
of the diet were analyzed. The average number
of meals per day and the frequency and types of
between-meal snacks were evaluated.
The cerebral palsied children, as a group, showed
pronounced deficiency in all four food groups being
most deficient in the vegetable-fruit group and least
deficient in the bread-cereals group. In terms of nutrients,
the children showed deficiencies of iron,
calories, niacin, ascorbic acid, and calcium, in the
order listed. The children generally consumed soft
food, ate their meals at surprising regularity, and
snacked approximately three items per day. Their
snacks consisted of items of high nutritional value.
Dietary habits did not vary significantly when they
were evaluated according to types of affliction.
Some effects on the consumption of milk and fruits
and vegetables were observed, but because each type
of cerebral palsy was not well represented, results
did not warrant definite conclusions.

A roentographic cephalometric analysis of the cerebral palsied patientFetters, Max E. (Max Eugene), 1930- January 1967 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / This study sought to determine if the dental and oro-facial
complex of cerebral palsied patients is different from that of
the non-cerebral palsied.
Twenty-six cerebral palsied patients between the ages of seven
and 18 were examined. A history was taken and a data sheet was
completed to record molar and cuspid relationships. The function
of. the tongue and lips during swallow was also recorded.
Cephalometric and hand and wrist radiographs were taken of
each patient. The cephalometric measurements were statistically
compared with the normative data of a non-cerebral palsied group.
This analysis revealed the cranial flexure angle to be more acute
and the gonial angle to be more obtuse.
Comparison of the hand and wrist plates with normal standards
did not show wide enough differences to conclude that cerebral
palsied patients' skeletal age deviates from the chronological age.
Although there was a difference in some cephalometric measurements,
there is no evidence in this study to show that the incidence
of malocclusion and the incidence of factors that contribute to
malocclusion are found with greater frequency among cerebral
palsied patients.

Accommodating the oral health deficits of children with cerebral palsyShambayati, Ali 13 February 2022 (has links)
Abnormality in the formation of the brain causes a motor disorder called cerebral palsy. Due to this, children with cerebral palsy experience a disruption in growth and development along with permanent health issues they will face for the rest of their life. Thus, these children suffer from impaired chronic motor, seizures, and communicative disorders. Many children with cerebral palsy require a caregiver to help take care of their personal needs. The severity of cerebral palsy directly correlates with the required assistance; as the severity increases, so do the roles of the caregiver. Research demonstrates that many patients came from low-income families. Surveys conducted on the parents or caregivers found that the responsibilities of taking care of a child with cerebral palsy have impacted them personally. These impacts have resulted in negative or inefficient treatment.
Studies have indicated that cerebral palsy can have a negative impact on oral health. Brushing the teeth of patients can be difficult as some have a biting reflex; consequently, sometimes caregivers will skip brushing the child’s teeth at night. Many of the studies analyzed concluded that as the severity of the cerebral palsy increased, the amount of dental caries found increased. Due to their inability to properly swallow and breathe simultaneously, some children cannot digest solid foods. Instead, their dietary intake must be liquefied to improve digestion and avoid the chance of aspiration. This makes it difficult for caretakers to identify how much sugar is in the food they consume. Some research has found a significant amount of sugar in their food; therefore, in addition to the occasionally or routinely skipped oral hygiene steps, high sugar dietary intake has been a proposed reason for the increase in dental caries observed in patients with cerebral palsy.
This is an important issue that needs to be faced as children with cerebral palsy often cannot correctly communicate what problems they have to the dentist, leaving them in pain and discomfort. It has also been discovered that their diets have caused nutrient deficiencies, one of them being vitamin D which is crucial to bone and tooth health. Future research should focus on the malnutrition that children may suffer from and the preventable measures that caregivers should take. Not only does research need to be done, but dental education needs to be addressed. Dental students must be educated in how to treat patients with disabilities, especially cerebral palsy, and provide more knowledge on how to assist caregivers in easing the process for them and the child. There have been numerous reports of unprofessional practices that have dehumanized children with cerebral palsy. This study addresses this issue by bringing awareness to the reality many of these children face.
