We have established that physicians, including neurologists, variably diagnose cerebral palsy (CP) when using the most recent CP definition from 2006. We also know that child neurologists and neurodevelopmentalists view themselves to be optimally suited to diagnose CP based on their training backgrounds. Therefore, to reduce variability in CP diagnosis, our objective was to elucidate uncertainties child neurologists and neurodevelopmentalists may have regarding practical application of the 2006 definition.
