    The following are treatment of Cerebral palsy except - ProProfs

    The following are treatment of Cerebral palsy except

    • Physical therapy

    • Occupational therapy

    • External braces

    • Blood Transfusion

    Correct Answer
    A. Blood Transfusion
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Blood Transfusion because it is not a treatment for cerebral palsy. Cerebral palsy is a neurological disorder that affects movement and coordination, and the main treatments for it involve physical therapy and occupational therapy to improve muscle strength and motor skills. External braces may also be used to support and stabilize the affected limbs. Blood transfusion, on the other hand, is not a recognized treatment for cerebral palsy and is not directly related to managing the symptoms or underlying causes of the condition.

    What is the risk factor of Cerebral palsy? - ProProfs

    What is the risk factor of Cerebral palsy?

    • Preterm birth

    • Safe delivery

    • Still Birth

    • Tremors

    Correct Answer
    A. Preterm birth
    Explanation
    Preterm birth is a known risk factor for cerebral palsy. Cerebral palsy is a group of disorders that affect a person's ability to move and maintain balance and posture. It is caused by damage to the developing brain, and babies born prematurely are at a higher risk of brain damage due to their immature and underdeveloped organs. The earlier the baby is born, the higher the risk of cerebral palsy. Therefore, preterm birth is a significant risk factor for developing cerebral palsy.

    . What is the cause of Cerebral palsy? - ProProfs

    . What is the cause of Cerebral palsy?

    • Hereditary

    • Excess food

    • Lack of sleep

    • Often unknown

    Correct Answer
    A. Often unknown
    Explanation
    Cerebral palsy is a neurological disorder that affects movement and muscle coordination. The cause of cerebral palsy is often unknown, meaning that it cannot be attributed to a specific factor such as hereditary factors, excess food, or lack of sleep. This suggests that there may be a combination of various factors, including genetic and environmental factors, that contribute to the development of cerebral palsy. However, the exact cause remains unclear in many cases.

    • William John Little

    • Edward Clark

    • Rio Mark

    Correct Answer
    A. William John Little
    Explanation
    William John Little is the correct answer because he is widely recognized as one of the pioneers in the study of cerebral palsy. He was a British surgeon who extensively researched the condition in the 19th century. Little's work laid the foundation for understanding the causes and treatment of cerebral palsy, and his contributions continue to influence the field to this day.

    The following are the features of CP except - ProProfs

    The following are the features of CP except

    • Difficulties with thinking

    • Difficulties with Learning

    • Communication difficulties

    • Sleeping difficulties

    Correct Answer
    A. Sleeping difficulties
    Explanation
    The given answer, "Sleeping difficulties," is the correct answer because the question asks for the feature that is not associated with CP (Cerebral Palsy). Difficulties with thinking, learning, and communication are commonly observed in individuals with CP, but sleeping difficulties are not typically considered a characteristic of this condition.

    Cerebral palsy appears in what stage of life? - ProProfs

    Cerebral palsy appears in what stage of life?

    • Adulthood

    • Toddler

    • Childhood

    • Teens

    Correct Answer
    A. Childhood
    Explanation
    Cerebral palsy appears in childhood because it is a neurological disorder that affects movement and muscle coordination. It is typically caused by damage to the developing brain during pregnancy, childbirth, or early childhood. Symptoms of cerebral palsy usually become apparent in early childhood, with delays in reaching developmental milestones such as sitting, crawling, or walking. Therefore, the correct answer is childhood.

    The following are complications associated with Cerebral palsy except - ProProfs

    The following are complications associated with Cerebral palsy except

    • Seizures

    • Intellectual disability

    • Temporary madness

    • Can't Tell

    Correct Answer
    A. Temporary madness
    Explanation
    Cerebral palsy is a neurological disorder that affects movement and muscle coordination. Seizures and intellectual disability are commonly associated with cerebral palsy due to the brain damage or abnormal brain development that occurs. However, temporary madness is not a recognized complication of cerebral palsy. This term is not commonly used in medical literature to describe any specific symptom or condition related to cerebral palsy. Therefore, it can be concluded that temporary madness is not a complication associated with cerebral palsy.

    The following are the medication of CP except - ProProfs

    The following are the medication of CP except

    • Diazepam

    • Baclofen

    • Botulinum toxin

    • Ibuprofen

    Correct Answer
    A. Ibuprofen
    Explanation
    Ibuprofen is not a medication used for the treatment of CP (Cerebral Palsy). Diazepam, Baclofen, and Botulinum toxin are commonly prescribed medications for managing the symptoms of CP such as muscle spasms and stiffness. Ibuprofen, on the other hand, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) primarily used for pain relief and reducing inflammation. While it may be used to alleviate pain associated with CP, it is not considered a specific medication for treating the condition itself.

    The following are the symptoms of Cerebral palsy except - ProProfs

    The following are the symptoms of Cerebral palsy except

    • Poor coordination

    • Stiff muscles

    • Tremors

    • Sleeping Difficulties

    Correct Answer
    A. Sleeping Difficulties
    Explanation
    Cerebral palsy is a group of disorders that affect movement and muscle tone. It is caused by damage to the brain that occurs before, during, or shortly after birth. Common symptoms include poor coordination, stiff muscles, and tremors. While some individuals with cerebral palsy may experience sleep disturbances, it is not a primary or defining symptom of the condition.
