Cerebral Palsy Musculoskeletal Health Research project

Are you a parent or caregiver for a child aged 4-13 years, classified as GMFCS II, IV or V (click here for more details if you are unsure about which GMFCS level your child is) and live in the Auckland region?

You can participate in Cerebral Palsy Musculoskeletal Health Research project. The aim of this study is to improve understanding of how muscle and bone health changes over time and whether earlier identification of these problems can help guide timely treatment and better outcomes for children with CP in the future. This study takes place at the Liggins Institute at the University of Auckland over 4 years, with one appointment each year.
