Selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) is becoming increasingly popular in the management of spasticity in children. Spasticity itself is a multifaceted clinical entity that requires a holistic approach in order to effectively care for and improve the quality of life of those affected. To deliver these goals, a broad multidisciplinary team is required. From the role of neurosurgery in undertaking the procedure, through to the comprehensive rehabilitation process supported by physiotherapy, this chapter aims to summarise the key features necessary for an SDR unit to succeed as a team when providing care to their patients.

Selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) is becoming increasingly popular in the management of spasticity in children. Spasticity itself is a multifaceted clinical entity that requires a holistic approach in order to effectively care for and improve the quality of life of those affected. To deliver these goals, a broad multidisciplinary team is required. From the role of neurosurgery in undertaking the procedure, through to the comprehensive rehabilitation process supported by physiotherapy, this chapter aims to summarise the key features necessary for an SDR unit to succeed as a team when providing care to their patients.
