Until now, for children with cerebral palsy (CP) , diagnostic and some prognostic predictive machine learning studies have been conducted, but prognostic studies targeted specific milestone according to specific gross motor function measure (GMFCS) levels; such as walking and running predictors at GMFCS II and III and GMFCS II respectively, and not covered specific types of cerebral palsy. Predictions studies were limited by the lack of specificity of child and family characteristics was not taken into the account prospectively. It is therefore the utmost need to support clinical decision making by predicting the recovery in spastic cerebral palsy. Recovery predictive factors can play an important role for this purpose. Thus, this study aims to predict the recovery in spastic cerebral palsy according to all GMFCS level by means of a prediction index/model.

Gross motor function measure
The Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) is used to assess change in gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy aged 5 months to 16 years of age. The original GMFM version has 88 items each scored on a 4-point ordinal scale of 0 to 3, where 0 indicates that the child does not initiate the task; 1 indicates that the child initiates the task (completes \< 10% of the activity); 2 indicates that the child partially completes the task (completes from 10 to 99% of the activity), and 3 indicates that the child completes the task (100%). Up to 12 weeks

Modified Ashworth scale
Modified Ashworth scale (MAS) is used for the assessment of spasticity. Muscle tone is quantified in MAS by the assessment of the resistance of the spastic muscles. It is similar to Ashworth but adds a 1+ scoring category to indicate resistance through less than half of the movement. Score range from 0-4, with 6 choices. 0 indicates, no increase in the muscle tone and 4 indicates rigidity of the affected part. Up to 12 weeks
12 weeks
Functional Independence Measure for Children
Functional Independence Measure (FIM) is an 18-item, 7-level ordinal scale instrument that measures a child's consistent performance in essential daily functional skills. FIM is categorized into 2 main functional streams: "Dependent" (i.e; requires helper: scores 1-5) and "Independent" (i.e; requires no helper: scores 6-7). Scores 1 (total assistance) and 2 (maximal assistance) belonged to the "Complete Dependence" category. Scores 3 (moderate assistance), 4 (minimal contact assistance), and 5 (supervision or set-up) belonged to the "Modified Dependence" category. Scores 6 (modified independence) and 7 (complete independence) belonged to the "Independent" category. Up to 12 weeks
12 weeks
Goal specific treatment protocol with respect to the problem enlisted in gross motor function measure (GMFCS) level I will be provided to the spastic cerebral palsy children in the sets of 15-30 repetitions. The protocol will be performed in 30-40 minute sessions thrice a week.
Goal specific treatment protocol with respect to the problem enlisted in gross motor function measure (GMFCS) level II will be provided to the spastic cerebral palsy children in the sets of 15-30 repetitions. The protocol will be performed in 30-40 minute sessions thrice a week.
Goal specific treatment protocol with respect to the problem enlisted in GMFCS level III will be provided to the spastic cerebral palsy children in the sets of 15-30 repetitions. The protocol will be performed in 30-40 minute sessions thrice a week.
Goal specific treatment protocol with respect to the problem enlisted in gross motor function measure (GMFCS) level IV will be provided to the spastic cerebral palsy children in the sets of 15-30 repetitions. The protocol will be performed in 30-40 minute sessions thrice a week.
