Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to present the French translation of the Drooling Impact Scale (DIS-F) and to explore its validity, reliability and responsiveness to change in a group of children with Cerebral Palsy (CP)
Detailed Description: Drooling in children with CP is likely underestimated and under treated. It is an over-handicap for these children, because it causes many complications and may lead to a decline in self-esteem and to social isolation, altering the quality of life for patients and families. The therapeutic arsenal for the management of drooling includes rehabilitation techniques, oral drug treatments, local treatments or surgical treatments whose effectiveness is variable. In order to evaluate the efficacy of these therapies, standardized and valid assessment tools must be used. The Drooling Impact Scale (DIS) developed by Dr. Sue Reid's team in Melbourne in 2008, shows good validity and sensitivity to change, especially after botulinum toxin injection. It is commonly used in English-speaking studies, but no validation in French is available yet.

The aim of this study is to present the French translation of the Drooling Impact Scale (DIS-F) and to explore its validity, reliability and responsiveness to change in a group of children with CP.
