What is Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy?
Lack of oxygen to the brain during childbirth can result in cerebral palsy where all four limbs are affected - this is known as Quadriplegic cerebral palsy. Quadriplegia in cerebral palsy often results in a reduced life expectancy and is caused by an injury to the spinal cord that affects movement and sensation.
Children that have this type of cerebral palsy will usually suffer from severe learning difficulties, epilepsy and other long term complications.
