In outpatient clinics, parents often ask how many children can choose to perform FSPR? Can adults do FSPR? Professor Zongwang, a specialist in cerebral palsy, will answer the questions in detail:
The FSPR procedure (functional spinal neurological dissociation) is adapted to convulsive cerebral palsy, paraplegic paraplegic, convulsive paraplegic, partially convulsive patients whose muscle tension is above three levels and which seriously affects the normal life of the patient. The purpose of the operation is to overhaul the muscle tension of the patient and to provide a long-term, stable and thorough solution to the pain of the patient ‘ s muscle spasm, providing for the rehabilitation of the motor function.
The optimal age for FSPR operations is 2.5 to 6 years, but it is not that persons with cerebral palsy older than 6 years of age cannot perform FSPR operations, but the treatment programme needs to be adapted to the specific circumstances of each patient.
This is because:
First, the muscles and bones of persons with cerebral palsy aged 2.5 to 6 years are not really deformed, so as to remove their lower limb spasms through the FSPR operation, to reduce their muscle tension, to relax the patient, to combine appropriate rehabilitation training and to bring their walking positions closer to normal.
Second: People with cerebral palsy older than 6 years of age need to be dealt with with with FSPR+orthopaedic surgery, as they grow, with internal hooves and convulsions.
In clinically, the FSPR operation is divided into a neck-based FSPR and a waist-based FSPR operation, in which the neck-based FSPR is used to deal with upper limb spasms and to enable the patient to relax his upper limbs and move his hands; the main purpose of the back-based FSPR operation is to deal with lower limb spasms and to provide a precondition for the patient ‘ s walking.
What’s the purpose of the waist FSPR? For what patients?
The purpose of the operation is to address the lower limb spasm, to reduce the muscle tension and to ease the patient ‘ s legs; to adapt to convulsive cerebral palsy, paraplegic paraplegic, convulsive paraplegic paraplegic, partially convulsive patients, with muscle tension above the third level, with severe effects on the normal life of the patient and for those over 2.5 years of age.
What’s the purpose of the neck FSPR? For what patients?
The purpose of the surgery is to improve the upper limbs ‘ exercise and not to improve the fineness of the finger; it is difficult to adapt to the upper limbs ‘ rotation, and there are problems in wearing clothes, buttons, bowls, hand-to-hand co-operation. However, the fineness of the hands needs to be improved by the finer actions of writing, picking beans, wearing buttons and drawing lines.
The FSPR procedure is adapted to convulsive cerebral palsy, paraplegic, convulsive paraplegic, partially convulsive patients, with muscle tension above level three, which seriously affects the normal life of the patient.
Reminder: The shift from passive to active post-operative rehabilitation training of the FSPR significantly reduces the burden of rehabilitation training. At the same time, post-operative rehabilitation training can reinforce the effects of the operation and correct the wrong position of the patient. Paraplegic treatment can achieve optimal treatment only on the basis of a combination of the two.
