Impairments in sensory processing in children with cerebral palsy (CP) appear to be a cause of the postural control deficits they present and may affect function and participation in daily activities. Understanding the role of sensory processing in postural control can better inform their rehabilitation. Thus, the authors aimed to systematically review the literature concerning effects of sensory information manipulation on postural control in children with CP. A tailored search strategy in relevant databases identified 11 full-text reports that fulfilled the predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Sensory information affects postural control in children with CP. These children are less responsive to sensory input, and therefore are less able to perform adjustments during sensory perturbation. They exhibit less postural stability in the presence of sensory conflicts. The most commonly studied sources of sensory data are visual and somatosensory information, particularly when processed under static conditions. There are no studies addressing sensory information manipulation on postural control during the performance of functional activities. Further studies addressing manipulation of new sources of sensory cues on postural control are required.
