Abstract Description

We investigated the relationship between caregiver-reported eating and drinking problems and pain intensity, chronicity, and interference in children with CP. In this sample, children with CP with nutrition difficulties had more severe chronic pain. Nutrition is a promising and understudied component of chronic pain research in CP and should be assessed and treated as an additional avenue for a reduction of pain burden.
