During EACD meeting a session on Muscle skeletal topics will be held. Every day there will be a block of oral communication. We have also planned guest lectures, keynote lectures and one specialty hip session. Every morning there will be a breakfast session.
Among the speakers invited there are: Unni Narayanan, Virginia Paleg, Elisabet Rodby-Bousquet, Harold J.P. van Bosse, Bart Kowalczyk, Piotr Michno, Jeroen Vermeulen, Annemieke Buizer, Erika Cloodt and others.
Oral communication blocks are in the topics:
1. Spine, movement and treatment outcomes (Thursday);
2. Upper extremity and treatment outcomes (Friday);
3. Cerebral palsy - outcome and daily activity (Friday);
4. Orthopaedics (Friday);
5. Muscle tone (Saturday).
On Thursday, we have planned a breakfast session on “Early muscle health in cerebral palsy: Moving towards an Integrated Functional Approach”. On the same day in the afternoon we propose an instruction course on “Has there been a change in the use of Botulinum Toxin Injection as part of the management of Spasticity in Cerebral Palsy? A review of service 2015 – 2019”.
The title of the morning session On Friday is: “From childhood to adulthood with cerebral palsy: CPUP – a multi-professional surveillance program through the lifespan” and the title of the second session is “Single Event Multilevel Surgery (SEMLS) in children with Cerebral Palsy (CP); the multidisciplinary process of clinical reasoning and an accurate guideline for a rehabilitation treatment”.
At the end of the day the instructional course will be held: “An ICF-CY based conceptual approach: Activity and Participation Focused Individualized Therapy (APFIT) after Botulinum Toxin injection in children with cerebral palsy”. The title of the second session is “Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita - overcoming skeletal disabilities in children via surgical treatments - the international perspective”.
On the same day a hip session will take place – dedicated for hip problems. The title of the instructional course is: “Management of the Hip in Cerebral Palsy - From Evidence to Practice”.
On Saturday, the last day, the morning session will be on medical treatment in dyskinetic cerebral palsy.
