Objective: This review aimed to address the effects of therapy with virtual reality in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy according to International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), with the intention of gathering data that elucidate how the application of ICF can result in better understanding of the characteristics presented in a health situation. Methods: The articles were searched in the MEDLINE (Pubmed), PEDro, LILACS e SCIELO platforms, published until May 2019. Physiotherapy Evidence Database - PEDro was used as a method for evaluating, was included articles with a score ≥ 6 (six) in PEDro. Results: Six articles were included in this review. In general, significant results were observed regarding “Body functions” related to the improvement of upper and lower limb function after intervention with VR when compared to conventional therapy. In the “Activity” domain, we observed results in gait, balance and overall motor skills of children with CP after VR intervention. Conclusion: The effects of Virtual Reality in children with CP related to ICF are positive, but more results were found associated with the domain "Body functions" and "Activity", so it is suggested that further studies be done to verify the effects of VR on “Participation” and “Environmental Factors”.
