- Abstract
Introduction: The purpose of this study is to assess the evolution of motor coordination deficits in upper limbs in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Methods: This is a narrative review of studies monitoring the PRISMA guidelines that were followed during the design, research, and reporting. Results: The articles were screened by reading the titles and abstracts or full articles. This process resulted in a total of 11 studies that met the selection criteria and were therefore included in the narrative review and considered eligible for quality assessment through the MINORS scale, NIH quality assessment tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-Sectional Studies and CASP checklist. Conclusion: Factors that include body structures and functions, time and age of the child, the relationship between factors, and assessment tools can influence the assessment and presentation of upper limb coordination in children with CP. High level research that focuses on interventions that address the factors found in this review are warranted.
