Abstract
Cerebral palsy (CP) affects body posture and movement coordination and is the most common cause of severe disability in the pediatric population. The diagnosis of CP is not a description of a person's functioning or interaction with their environment. Therefore, the diagnosis should be complemented with a description of functioning, using tools based on the biopsychosocial model proposed by the World Health Organization's International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). This report describes the preliminary data from a multicenter study conducted in Argentina with the aim of standardizing the description of the profiles of functioning of children and adolescents with CP. These data showed that the participants had some skills in sleep functions, mental functions of language, seeing functions, and in some environmental factors. They showed significant difficulties in categories such as maintaining body position, walking, and toileting.
