Care rendered to pediatric patients with neuromotor delay, particularly those diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP), is a major challenge to public health services worldwide. The complexity of clinical management makes an integrated and multidisciplinary approach relevant. The aim of this study was to get to know the epidemiological profile and the main co- morbidities of patients with neuromotor delay, who are attended in a multidisciplinary referral service which has 10 years experience in the management of these patients. This study was carried out through cross descriptive and retrospective analysis of medical records of patients at the Special Patient Clinic at the University Hospital of Uberlândia, during the period of 2010-2012. One hundred and thirty six (136) records were analyzed, 79 (58.1%) were male and 70 (51.5 %) coming of Uberlândia. The more frequent diagnosis is CP in 113 (83.1%) Intestinal Constipation (IC) and gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) were the most frequent co-morbidities, 85 (62.5%) and 80 (58.8%) respectively. Feeding by way of alternative means was observed in 71 (52.2%) |
