SUBJECTS: A total of 36 paediatric physical therapists working in primary healthcare with children with cerebral palsy in their caseload. METHODS: The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health was used as a measure to link individual treatment goals to the GMFM-88 and the PEDI. RESULTS: Sixty percent of the treatment goals were covered by the 2 measures. Twenty-seven percent and 21\% of the goals were reflected in the GMFM-88 and the PEDI, respectively; 12\% of the goals were reflected in both instruments. Another 26\% of the treatment goals appeared to be partly covered (21\% in PEDI and 5\% in GMFM-88). Fourteen percent of the goals were not covered by the 2 measures. CONCLUSION: Individual goals set in a physical therapy practice for children with cerebral palsy can be linked, to a large extent, to items and activities of 2 standardized measures.
