Q

Manual Ability Classification for Children with CP

A

I- handles objects easily and with success
II- handles most objects, but with somewhat reduced quality or speed
III- handles objects with difficulty, needs help to prepare and modify activities
IV- handles a limited selection of easily managed objects in adapted situations
V- does not handle objects, has a severely limited ability to perform simple actions
