Résumé
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the effect of early treatment with acupuncture and motortherapy on developmental quotient (DQ) of cerebral palsy high risk infants.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Sixty cerebral palsy high risk infants were divided into an acupuncture combined with motortherapy group (treatment group) and a control group, 30 cases in each group. Changes of DQ were investigated by the children mental development scale.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The DQ in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.001), with a very significant difference between the two groups in the different grades of DQ (P < 0.005). Incidence of cerebral palsy in the treatment group significantly lower than that in the control group (P < 0.005).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Acupuncture combined with motortherapy can effectively improve intelligence level and motor function, and reduce the incidence of cerebral palsy for cerebral palsy high risk infants at early stage.</p>
