Cerebral palsy (CP) refers to a group of diseases characterized by persistent central dyskinesia, postural development disorder and activity limitation syndromes caused by nonprogressive brain injury in the developing fetus or infant, which is often accompanied by sensory, cognitive and attention disorders. The routine rehabilitation methods for children with CP mainly include physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and other methods. In recent years, noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS), as a relatively new intervention method, has been widely used because of its potential to regulate cortical excitability and plasticity. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is an NIBS technique that is easier and more convenient to perform. It does not require patients to remain stationary for a long time or have a significant impact on treatment results due to children's frequent activities. Compared with other NIBS techniques, tDCS has greater flexibility and no strict restrictions on patients' activities; it also helps the therapist conduct occupational therapy or speech therapy while a child receives tDCS, which markedly reduces the treatment time and avoids burnout due to a long treatment duration. Thus, tDCS is a better and more convenient intervention for CP children and warrants further exploration. Accordingly, this article reviews tDCS application in children with CP and discusses tDCS application prospects for such children to promote its expansion in clinical practice.

脑性瘫痪（cerebral palsy，CP）是指发育中的胎儿或婴儿因非进行性脑损伤引起的以持续性中枢性运动障碍、姿势发育障碍和活动受限综合征为特征的一组疾病，常伴有感觉、认知和注意力障碍。CP患儿的常规康复方法主要有物理治疗、作业治疗、言语治疗等方法。近年来，无创脑刺激（NIBS）作为一种相对较新的干预方法，因其具有调节皮质兴奋性和可塑性的潜力而被广泛使用。经颅直流电刺激 (tDCS) 是一种更易于执行的 NIBS 技术。它不需要患者长时间保持静止或因儿童频繁活动而对治疗结果产生重大影响。与其他NIBS技术相比，tDCS具有更大的灵活性，对患者的活动没有严格的限制；它还可以帮助治疗师在孩子接受tDCS时进行职业治疗或言语治疗，从而显着减少治疗时间并避免因治疗时间长而导致的倦怠。因此，tDCS 是一种更好、更方便的 CP 儿童干预措施，值得进一步探索。据此，本文对tDCS在CP患儿中的应用进行综述，并探讨tDCS在此类患儿中的应用前景，以促进其在临床实践中的拓展。tDCS具有更大的灵活性，对患者的活动没有严格的限制；它还可以帮助治疗师在孩子接受tDCS时进行职业治疗或言语治疗，从而显着减少治疗时间并避免因治疗时间长而导致的倦怠。因此，tDCS 是一种更好、更方便的 CP 儿童干预措施，值得进一步探索。据此，本文对tDCS在CP患儿中的应用进行综述，并探讨tDCS在此类患儿中的应用前景，以促进其在临床实践中的拓展。tDCS具有更大的灵活性，对患者的活动没有严格的限制；它还可以帮助治疗师在孩子接受tDCS时进行职业治疗或言语治疗，从而显着减少治疗时间并避免因治疗时间长而导致的倦怠。因此，tDCS 是一种更好、更方便的 CP 儿童干预措施，值得进一步探索。据此，本文对tDCS在CP患儿中的应用进行综述，并探讨tDCS在此类患儿中的应用前景，以促进其在临床实践中的拓展。tDCS 是一种更好、更方便的 CP 儿童干预措施，值得进一步探索。据此，本文对tDCS在CP患儿中的应用进行综述，并探讨tDCS在此类患儿中的应用前景，以促进其在临床实践中的拓展。tDCS 是一种更好、更方便的 CP 儿童干预措施，值得进一步探索。据此，本文对tDCS在CP患儿中的应用进行综述，并探讨tDCS在此类患儿中的应用前景，以促进其在临床实践中的拓展。
