Abstract
This study aims to determine what factors influence severe disability in children with cerebral palsy and their relationship to the therapeutic measures obtained. The research method is descriptive observational research to describe the factors that affect severe disabilities in children with cerebral palsy (CP) and correlated with the therapeutic measures obtained and statistical analysis used to test data correlation applying the Pearson product-moment. The results showed (1) factors that aggravate disability in persons with CP are comorbidities, severe degree of spasticity, primitive reflexes that have not been well integrated, (2) strong, positive, and significant correlation between the maturity of primitive reflexes and physiotherapy measures was obtained (r = 0.762, α = 0.000), (3) perfect, positive and significant correlation between the degree of the weight of spasticity and physiotherapy measures was obtained (r = 0.926, α = 0.000), and (4) strong, positive and significant correlation between levels of functional ability with physiotherapy measures was obtained (r = 0.773, α = 0.000). This research concludes that there is a correlation between factors that influence severe disability in cerebral palsy and obtained physiotherapy.
