Abstract: ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between current and therapeutic effect of block myoelectricity fixed Botulinum Toxin A(BTX-A) injection in cerebral palsy.Methods15 children with spastic cerebral palsy were treated with BTX-A block injection under block myoelectricity fixing.The dose of BTX-A was identified with the weight of the child and the Modified Ashworth Scale.The correlation between current and period in effect was analyzed.ResultsThere was negative correlation between current and period in effect(r=-0.769,P=0.01).ConclusionThe BTX-A should be injected where the fixed current is less.

Key words: cerebral palsy, spasticity, Botulinum Toxin A(BTX-A), block myoelectricity fixing
