Abstract
The literature points out that COVID-19 preferentially affects the adult and elderly population, with little repercussion among children. We present our concern regarding the silent damage of the COVID-19 pandemic among patients with neurodevelopmental disorders and cerebral palsy. The interruption of rehabilitation treatment, changes of daily routine, and overuse of screen technology has contributed to a higher incidence of psychiatric and sleep disorders in patients with neurodevelopmental disorder and cerebral palsy. These factors are likely to lead to a higher occurrence of pseudo-regression among patients with cerebral palsy. It is necessary to take a special look at the comprehensive health care of these children, encouraging the use of telemedicine and telerehabilitation tools.
