Dr. Unni Narayanan, a pediatric orthopedic surgeon and outcomes researcher, will share his vision for helping parents manage the health outcomes for children with severe (non-ambulatory) CP which is called CPCHECKlist©. The webinar will take place on Monday, May 16 at 8 PM ET and parents, caregivers or clinicians should register in advance to receive an invitation. Dr. Narayanan is the creator of the CPCHILD which is the leading outcome measure for health-related quality of life for children with severe CP.

Cerebral Palsy Co-morbidities and a Health Tech Evaluation Checklist (CPCHECKlist©) is a new parent-reported list of specific health items and co-morbidities, commonly experienced by children with severe cerebral palsy (CP) and CP-like conditions. In addition to reporting the presence and perceived severity of each health issue, the parent/caregiver also indicates which of these they wish to have addressed at any given clinical encounter. The CPCHECKList includes a section on the use of health-technologies. The CPCHECKlist is intended to serve as a companion health module of the CPCHILD questionnaire or as a stand-alone health/comorbidity index to guide clinical decision-making or to quantify the health status of a child with severe CP in a standardized, comprehensive way for research and clinical management.
