Walking and Fatigue in People with Cerebral Palsy: Brief Report.

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between perceived fatigue and perceptions of walking abilities and difficulty in people with cerebral palsy (CP). Twenty individuals with CP (range 10-21y; mean age 14.8y) who usually walk in the community were recruited.

Fatigue in adults with cerebral palsy: A three-year follow-up study.

Objectives: To describe the course of fatigue over a 3-year follow-up period in adults with cerebral palsy and to investigate the association of known determinants of fatigue (i.e. demographic characteristics and/or body composition) with change in fatigue.

Fatigue in cerebral palsy: a critical review.

Objective: Fatigue contributes to the deterioration or cessation of walking ability in adults with cerebral palsy (CP). However, conflict exists as to its role. Studies involving functional tasks reported increased, and earlier onset of, fatigue in CP, whereas laboratory studies have reported individuals with CP to be more fatigue-resistant than their peers.
