Abstract

Cerebral Palsy is a condition of motor disturbances caused by brain damage during child development. Globally, the incidence of CP in low- and middle income countries is 3.4 per 1000 live births. Cerebral Palsy (CP) is defined from the word cerebral, namely the brain, and palsy which is paralysis or a paralyzed condition caused by a nerve disorder that functions to regulate the movement of the body's muscles. The purpose of this study was to analyze the description and relationship between the level of gross motor skills, diet, and intake of macronutrients with nutritional status in people with cerebral palsy. This study used a cross-sectional design, the sample was taken using a non-probability sampling technique with a purposive sampling method and a total of 59 children were obtained. This study used the Spearman Rank statistical test to analyze the relationship between independent variables and nutritional status with a significance level or probability less than equal to 0.05 for respondents using IBM SPSS 25 and Microsoft Excel. The results showed that there was a relationship between carbohydrate sources, namely rice (p=0.000), chicken (p=0,000), citrus fruits (p=0.046), milk (p=0.000), and coconut oil (p=0.000). However, there was no relationship between and vegetable sources (p more than 0.05). There is a relationship between intake of macronutrients and nutritional status in people with cerebral palsy. Energy (p=0.000), protein (p=0.054), fat (p=0.025), carbohydrates (p=0.000). There is no relationship between gross motor function in people with cerebral palsy (p more than 0.05). The results showed that there was no relationship between gross motor function with nutritional status on cerebral palsy. There was a relationship between rice, biscuit, bread, chicken, fish, egg, tofu, spinach, mango, orange, papaya, banana, milk, cheese, coconut oil, butter, sugar, and honey and nutritional status on cerebral palsy. However, there was no relationship between porridge, tempeh, soy sauce, water spinach, carrot, beans, broccoli, dragon fruit, and yoghurt. There is a relationship between intake of macronutrients and nutritional status in people with cerebral palsy.
