Abstract

 Poliomyelitis (polio) is a viral disease that primarily affects children, causing paralysis and long-term disability. Despite significant global efforts toward eradication, poliomyelitis remains a concern in some regions. Proper care and management of children affected by polio are crucial to reduce morbidity, improve quality of life, and support rehabilitation. This article provides a comprehensive overview of poliomyelitis, focusing on the clinical features, principles of patient care, rehabilitation, and preventive strategies. It highlights the multidisciplinary approach required for effective management, including medical treatment, physical therapy, psychosocial support, and vaccination.
