Abstract

This study sought to identify the contributions of the hand therapy field to people with cerebral palsy, available in the domestic and international literature online, analyzing the existing works and verifying the existence of structured studies. It was configured as a descriptive, retrospective study, through the criteria of systematic review of the literature for the collection, selection, and analysis of data. The search was done from February of 2010 to January of 2011, on the LILACS, MEDLINE, BIREME, SCOPUS, and CINAHL databases, on works published in Portuguese and English, between 2003 and 2010. Eleven articles were included in the review and a form prepared by the researchers was used to evaluate these articles according to the characterization and quality of the information contained. The results demonstrated that the most discussed subjects in the sample were orthotic intervention, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, botulinum toxin, and manual function. Despite contributing to knowledge on cerebral palsy interventions, the studies did not clearly mention the findings as contributions from the hand therapy specialty on the theme, and methodological limitations were found, implying the need for more methodological rigor and quality of information from the scientific studies.
