Abstract: Objectives: In this study, it was aimed to evaluate maternal functional status, quality of life, depression andanxiety measurements according to the child's functional level in the mothers, who were diagnosed withfibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), of children with cerebral palsy (CP).Methods: Ninety-seven mothers diagnosed with FMS, whose children had CP, were included in the study.Children with CP were divided into two functional levels with the Gross Motor Function Classification System(GMFCS) as mild-moderate (level 1, 2 and 3) and severe (level 4 and 5). On mothers, The Fibromyalgia ImpactQuestionnaire (FIQ) was used to assess the functional levels and quality of life, Beck Depression Inventory(BDI) was used to evaluate the depression level, and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) was used to determine theanxiety level.Results: The mean age of the 97 female patients participating in the study was 35.93 ± 8.72 years. Accordingto GMFCS, 67% of children with CP were mild to moderate while 33% were severe. There was a significantpositive correlation between GMFCS levels of children with CP and their mother's FIQ, BDI, and BAI scores(p < 0.05).Conclusions: Maintaining the daily life of a child with CP is a parenting-focused situation. Especially it affectsthe mother physically and mentally. Our study suggests that the severe physical condition of the child with CPincreases the mother's FIQ, depression, and anxiety. It has been determined that studies on CP should not ignorethe parental factor as well as research on the disease itself.
