Abstract:
Background. Evidence-based approaches to improve function in individuals with cerebral palsy are needed. Purpose. To investigate the effectiveness of the Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance approach™ (CO-OP) to improve performance on self-chosen, functional goals as compared to traditional occupational therapy for cerebral palsy. Method. Crossover design with 12 participants, aged 6–15 years, randomly assigned to CO-OP and traditional intervention groups, followed by crossover and a 3-month follow-up. The participants identified three occupation-based goals for CO-OP and each group received ten 45-minutes intervention twice weekly in clinical context. Occupational performance, manual dexterity and Gross Motor Function Measures were analysed using generalized estimating equations. Findings. There were clinical and statistically significant improvements in functional goals following CO-OP and not traditional therapy. There were gains in dexterity but not in gross motor skills. Implications. CO-OP was effective to improve functional performance in young people with cerebral palsy and should be more utilized.

Abstract:
Background. International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) core set for cerebral palsy allows for the description of the levels of functioning in cerebral palsy. It is not exactly clear which of these levels is more important for evaluation from the perspective of occupational therapists in Iran. By identifying these priorities, we can establish a better plan for intervention. Purpose. This study defines assessment priorities in children with cerebral palsy (<6 years). Method. Sixty-two Iranian occupational therapists studied the priorities of assessment based on the Iranian ICF core set. The therapists were asked to rate the code categories from 1 to 3. The results are presented as mean values. Findings. Occupational therapists first focus on body functions assessment, then activities/participation, and ultimately, environmental factors. Implications. Occupational therapists in Iran have a bottom-up approach toward clients with cerebral palsy. It may be necessary to revise the educational curriculum, prepare a training course, and provide more supervision for practising occupational therapists.

Abstract:
Introduction The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of occupational performance coaching in mothers of children with cerebral palsy. Method A randomized controlled trial was used. Thirty mothers of children with cerebral palsy were randomly assigned to an occupational performance coaching group or control group. The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure and Sherer General Self-efficacy Scale were measured before and after the study. Results Occupational performance coaching had significant effects on participants’ occupational performance and self-efficacy. In child-related goals, there was also a statistically significant difference between two groups ( p = 0.05). Conclusion The results indicated that occupational performance coaching could be an effective intervention to increase the self-efficacy of mothers and improve the occupational performance of children and mothers of children with cerebral palsy.

Abstract:
Introduction The home context is considered a good location for children with cerebral palsy to practise meaningful occupations. The aim of this critical review was to gain a deeper understanding of how bimanual therapy and modified constraint induced movement therapy or constraint induced movement therapy methods are used within occupational therapy home programmes from an occupational perspective. Method A literature search was conducted using electronic databases for health research; five studies met the inclusion criteria. These were critically appraised and were analysed according to the relevant supports and barriers of the person–environment–occupation conceptual model of practice. Findings Family collaboration, strategic use of outcome measures, construction of the programme within the home environment and occupation-focused goals and activities emerged as commonly used methods. Enhanced descriptions of intervention context, the child’s voice in defining goals and challenges in optimising occupational balance surfaced as gaps in the programmes. Conclusion The methods used in implementing these approaches within occupational therapy home programmes requires combining motor and non-motor approaches, core occupational therapy skills, working within individual contexts and valuing family preferences. Using child-specific goal-setting instruments would strengthen the child’s voice and promote participation within a wider range of occupations.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to explore how paediatric occupational therapists provide intervention for children with cerebral palsy in the United Kingdom. A survey design was used with a sample of 120 paediatric occupational therapists. The results of this study were representational of practice among members of the National Association of Paediatric Occupational Therapists. It was found that 91.7% of occupational therapists in this study used an eclectic treatment approach. Treatment was usually provided on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration the individual needs of the child, and family-centred functional therapy was valued. Postgraduate training in the areas of neurodevelopmental treatment and sensory integration is recommended in a continuing capacity if therapists choose to use these frames of reference to guide treatment for children with cerebral palsy.

Abstract:
Background/Aims The ability to eat and drink is the most important factor in health, survival and longevity. Children with cerebral palsy can suffer from severe dysphagia, which can lead to a high risk of aspiration and choking. As classifying eating and drinking ability in children with cerebral palsy is important in research and treatment, the aim of this study was to determine the cross-cultural validation and reliability of the Persian version of the Eating and Drinking Ability Classification System. Methods After translation procedures, the face validity, content validity, test–retest reliability and interrater reliability of the Eating and Drinking Ability Classification System were evaluated. In total, 130 parents of children with cerebral palsy and 34 therapists participated in the evaluation of the scale's reliability. The 73 boys and 57 girls with cerebral palsy were aged 3–20 years (mean age 4.4 years) and had various types of cerebral palsy. They were classified according to the Eating and Drinking Ability Classification System by both their parents and the therapists. Results The overall results indicated that the words and sentences used were simple, clear, understandable, relevant and necessary. The intraclass correlation coefficients for test–retest reliability for parents, occupational therapists and speech therapists were 0.98, 0.98 and 0.995, respectively. The interrater reliability between parents and occupational therapists was 0.96, between parents and speech therapists was 0.95, and between occupational therapists and speech therapists was 0.985. Conclusions The Persian version of the Eating and Drinking Ability Classification System seems to be valid and reliable. This system may be used to evaluate children with cerebral palsy.

Abstract:
Introduction This study analysed the differences in play performance between preschool children with cerebral palsy and those with typical development and investigated the factors influencing functional mobility and manual dexterity on play in children with cerebral palsy. Method Sixty preschool children (30 with cerebral palsy; 30 with typical development), were assessed by the revised Knox Preschool Play Scale, being that children with cerebral palsy were also classified according to their functional mobility and manual dexterity. Results On average, all measures were significantly smaller in the cerebral palsy group than the typical development group (p≤ .002). Manual function and functional mobility were negatively correlated with material ( r = −.456, p = .011; r = −.487, p = .006) and space ( r = −.494, p = .006; r = −.784, p = .000). Also the results pointed out a significant correlation with topography and manual function ( r = .404, p = .027) and functional mobility ( r = .718, p = .000). Pretend play and participation showed no correlation with topography (r = −.051, p = .788; r = −.312, p = .093), manual function (r = −.019, p = .921; r = −.322, p = .083) and functional mobility (r = −.085, p = .657; r = −.308, p = .097). Conclusion Play performance of children with typical development was superior to those with cerebral palsy. The degree of impairment of functional mobility and manual function negatively was negatively associated with play exploration but did not relate to pretend play or social interaction in play.

Abstract:
Introduction Evidence-based occupational therapy home programmes for children with unilateral cerebral palsy have demonstrated efficacy; however, uptake into routine practice is varied. The aim of this study was to gain a deeper understanding of the therapist-perceived supports and barriers to using occupational therapy home programmes for children with unilateral cerebral palsy, based on evidence of best practice in the United Kingdom. Method Fourteen occupational therapists completed semi-structured telephone interviews. Using a qualitative framework analysis approach, support and barrier factors were indexed against the Theoretical Domains Framework, before being categorised more broadly using the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation and Behaviour Model. Findings Common supports included: (a) strong leadership within the team to facilitate the translation of occupational therapy home programmes and evidence-based interventions into service-specific protocols; (b) knowledge exchange within professional networks and (c) mentorship. Common barriers included: (a) lack of resources; (b) restricted opportunities to review occupational therapy home programmes and (c) difficulties keeping up-to-date with the evidence in this area. Conclusion To be effective, occupational therapy home programmes need to be based on evidence of best practice; analysis indicated an urgent need to capture outcomes, record parental practice, further integrate ‘occupation’ within goal-setting, and develop use of conceptual models of practice to both enhance family-centred care and articulate the profession’s unique contribution.

Abstract:
Despite the popularity of home program interventions there is little evidence to demonstrate effectiveness, particularly when an explicit family centred framework is adopted. This single-group pre-post design study evaluates the impact of a standardised occupational therapy home program implemented with a group of 20 children (2-7 years, mean age 3.8)with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy. The study measured the effect of the program using: goal attainment scaling(GAS);pediatric evaluation of disability inventory (PEDI); and quality of upper extremity test(QUEST). In addition, parent participation intensity was measured through a home program log. The use of a standardised occupational therapy home program for children with cerebral palsy is recommended as an effective method to achieve therapy goals. Further research using more rigorous designs is required to fully explore treatment efficacy.

Abstract:
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the most common cause of physical disabilities in children. It is a broad term that describes a set of conditions that is associated with major physical impairments and other developmental deficits and arises in the early stages of brain development. Children and youth with CP often experience limitations in everyday activities in different life situations.Participation in leisure activities is an important aspect of health, as described by the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). Engagement in leisure activities is essential for the development of a series of crucial competencies for a healthy development. Recently, studies have found factors related to participation in children with physical disabilities. However, information is lacking with regards to participation of adolescents, particularly what types of leisure activities are preferred by this population and predictors of participation in different type of leisure activities. Understanding of factors associated with participation in leisure activities may contribute to the development of rehabilitation and community programs and policies.The primary objective of this study is to quantify the level (intensity and diversity) of participation in leisure activities of adolescents (12-19 years of age) with cerebral palsy (CP), and to estimate the potential influence of both intrinsic child characteristics and extrinsic environmental factors as determinants of leisure participation. The secondary objective of this study is to determine factors associated with preferences for specific leisure activities in this population of interest. A cross sectional design was used. A total of 185 adolescents (12-20 years old) completed the study. Participation was measured with the Children's Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment (CAPE) and preferences for activities was measured with the Preferences for Activities of Children (PAC). Results demonstrate that adolescents with CP participated in a variety of out-of-school leisure activities. Adolescents participated more in informal activities than formal activities. Adolescents engaged in a variety of recreational and social activities, but not in many self-improvement activities. Participation in skill-based activities was the least frequent type of activity done, but diversity and frequency of participation in physical activities was also limited.In terms of preferences for activities, social and physical activities were most preferred, and self-improvement activities were least preferred. Family factors, personal factors and functional abilities influenced leisure preferences. High preference for certain activities was not always associated with actual involvement in these activities. Models of determinants of intensity of participation in five leisure activity domains demonstrated that leisure is a multifaceted construct that appears to be associated with a variety of factors related to the adolescents' functional characteristics and attitudes, the family environment and socioeconomic status and other contextual factors such as school type. Aspects of the adolescent's mastery motivation and behavior were also associated with participation in different activity domains. The adolescent's perception of self in relation to competence in different life skills and physical appearance was also associated with participation in certain types of leisure activities. Rehabilitation interventions should consider adolescents' preferences and family dynamics to minimize barriers to leisure participation, such as low motivation or environmental obstacles, so as to promote engagement in leisure activities. Expanding the scope of rehabilitation interventions to support the creation of programs in the community and advocate for policies that may facilitate participation in a variety of activities is needed, to promote a healthy development and well-being for this at-risk population.
La paralysie cérébrale (PC) est un ensemble de conditions associées à des déficiences majeures et à des déficits au niveau du développement qui se forment lors des premiers stades de développement du cerveau et est la cause de handicap physique la plus importante chez les enfants. Souvent, les individus atteinent de la PC peuvent être limité dans ses activités de tous les jours. La participation à des activités de loisir est un aspect important de la santé, selon la Classification Internationale du Fonctionnement, du Handicap et de la Santé (CIF). Participer à des activités de loisir est essentiel pour le développement d'une série de compétences. Récemment, des études ont démontré des facteurs liés à la participation chez des enfants souffrant de handicaps physiques. Par contre, la documentation concernant la participation d'adolescents, particulièrement les types d'activités de loisirs préférés par cette population et les prédicteurs de la participation dans différents types d'activités de loisir, est incomplète. L'objectif principal de cette étude est de quantifier le niveau, l'intensité et la diversité de la participation des adolescents (de 12 à 19 ans) souffrant de paralysie cérébrale (PC) à des activités de loisir et d'estimer l'influence potentielle des caractéristiques intrinsèques de l'enfant et les facteurs environnementaux extrinsèques en tant que déterminants de la participation à l'activité de loisir. Le second objectif de cette étude est de déterminer les facteurs associés aux préférences pour des activités de loisirs spécifiques chez cette population. Notre étude, de type transversale, a été complétée par 185 adolescents entre 12 et 20 ans. La participation a été mesurée avec le "Children's Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment" (CAPE), et les préférences pour les activités ont été mesurées avec le "Preferences for Activities of Children" (PAC). Les résultats démontrent que les adolescents souffrant de PC participent à une variété d'activités récréatives et sociales, mais à très peu d'activités de croissance personnelle. La participation à des activités basées sur les compétences était le type d'activité le moins populaire, mais la diversité et la fréquence de la participation à des activités physiques était également limitée. En ce qui a trait à la préférence pour certaines activités, les activités sociales et physiques étaient les plus populaires, et les activités de croissance personnelle étaient les moins populaires. Des facteurs familiaux et personnels ainsi que les habiletés fonctionnelles influençaient les préférences. Une préférence élevée pour certaines activités n'était pas toujours associée à la participation à ces activités. Des modèles déterminant l'intensité de la participation à cinq domaines d'activités ont démontré que le concept de loisir comporte de nombreuses facettes qui sont associées à une variété de facteurs reliés à l'environnement familial, au statut socio-économique et à divers facteurs contextuels comme le type d'école fréquenté. La motivation et le comportement étaient aussi associés à la participation dans différents domaines d'activité. La perception de soi de l'adolescent en relation avec la maîtrise des différentes compétences de base et l'apparence physique étaient également associées à la participation à certains types d'activités de loisir.Les interventions visant la réhabilitation devraient considérer les préférences des adolescents et les dynamiques familiales afin de minimiser les obstacles à la participation à des activités de loisir. Il est nécessaire de développer la portée des interventions de réhabilitation afin de supporter la création de programmes dans la communauté et de plaider en faveur de politiques qui faciliteront la participation à une variété d'activités. Ceci permettrait de promouvoir le développement sain ainsi que le bien-être de cette population à risque.

Abstract:
Background: There is a high worldwide prevalence of cerebral palsy, a neurological condition which impacts most areas of life of children and their families. Evidence shows that occupational therapy is effective in enhancing the child's function, participation and quality of life, especially when provided at a young age and with high intensity. Literature provides additional recommendations for occupational therapy to follow a holistic and family-centred approach, considering participation in context, rather than an individual medical focus. These notions place pressure on the strained South African healthcare system, where human and physical resources, as well as contextually-relevant evidence for practice, are limited. The aim of this research was, therefore, to obtain a baseline description of the occupational therapy services being provided to children with severe cerebral palsy, across all government healthcare facilities of the Western Cape province. Methods: A quantitative, cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted, using a selfdesigned questionnaire. The questionnaire was developed using recognised survey principles in order to maintain research rigour, reliability and validity of results, and guidelines from previousstudies of a similar nature. The questionnaire was available to participants in duplicate online and hard copy formats. The anonymous, self-report questionnaire obtained profiles of the participating occupational therapists and their departments, descriptions of current service provision (assessments, goal-setting and interventions), perceived factors influencing service selection, and an understanding of services therapists felt they should be providing more of. No sampling took place and responses were invited from all occupational therapists employed by the provincial health department. All recruitment and correspondence took place via email or telephone. Recruitment and data collection took place over a period of 16 weeks, with each participant having a maximum of two weeks to submit their responses, after which a maximum of three reminders were sent. Numerical data were analysed using non-parametric descriptive statistics and categorical data were presented in terms of frequencies and percentages. Ethical principles adhered to included respect, confidentiality, anonymity, beneficence, non-maleficence and justice. Results: There was a response rate of 53%, with all provincial health districts and levels of care represented amongst participants. Assessments frequently involved observations of the child in activities(85%) and interviews with their caregiver (98%). Goals formulated, with some input of caregivers, related to occupational performance components (91%) more often than occupational performance (77%), and largely aimed to maintain the child's condition (68%), rather than improve development or functional participation (47%). A range of interventions were provided, but appointments were infrequent (median: 1 per month), mainly took place in clinical environments (100%), and waiting periods for assistive devices and orthotics were common. Opportunities for direct therapy and interventions in the child's daily context were limited, and home programmes and caregiver education were heavily relied upon indirect intervention methods, frequently implemented by 100% and 91% of participants respectively. Key factors influencing the selection of services included resource availability (62%), therapists' training (62%) and the level of care at which they worked (59%). Therapists felt they were meeting some of the children's needs, and required the support of the multidisciplinary team to meet more of their needs effectively. Conclusion: This study provides insight into occupational therapists' roles in the government healthcare sector in the Western Cape province, and highlights the degree of alignment of services with policy and elements of best practice. Some merits are clear, in terms of the combination of direct and indirect services provided and the involvement of families in therapy processes. However, there remains a shortfall in terms of effective holistic, evidence-based, family-centred, and early and intensive approaches. This study, therefore prompts revision of strategies to implement existing policies promoting quality services for people with disabilities and align occupational therapists' training with evidence-based practice and holistic frameworks and approaches. Further research is recommended, particularly a qualitative consideration of the contextual factors influencing service provision, in order to better understand and address the barriers to meaningful and effective services for this population within the context of Primary Healthcare. With these recommendations, quality service provision, leading to participation and quality of life outcomes for children with severe cerebral palsy and their families, may be enhanced.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Muscle weakness is a problem for many young people with spastic cerebral palsy (CP). Many studies have reported that selective strength-training programs can improve muscle strength. However, most of these studies are of single group design and do not adequately control for confounding variables. Objective: To determine the impact of a comprehensive strength training program targeting multiple muscle groups on adolescents with CP, using basic inexpensive free weights and resistance devices. Method: A randomised clinical trial evaluated the effects of an eight-week strength-training program on 31 independently ambulant adolescents with spastic CP, with or without walking aids, from Eros School (19 males, 12 females; mean age 16 years 1 month; range 13 - 18 years). The Kin-Com dynamometer, 3-D gait analysis, the Economy of Movement test and a questionnaire was used to evaluate selected muscle strength, the degree of crouch gait, free walking velocity and stride length, energy consumption during walking and perceptions of body image and functional competence. Twenty one subjects took part in the strength-training program and were compared with 10 control subjects. Results were analysed using repeated measures ANOVA and bootstrap analysis. Results: Compared with the control, significant improvement in the degree of crouch as measured by the sum of the ankle, knee and hip angles at midstance (p=0.05) and perceptions of body image (p=0.01) were noted for the experimental group. Significant trends were also noted for isometric knee extension muscle strength at 30° as well as for hip abduction at 10° and 20°. Walking efficiency, -velocity and stride length remained unchanged as well as perceptions of functional ability. Conclusion: A strength-training program targeting multiple muscle groups including upper and lower limbs as well as the trunk, can lead to changes in muscle strength and improve the degree of crouch gait with improved perception of body image. Successful participation in such a program at school may motivate children with CP to continue with home-based basic strength training. Strength training alone did not decrease oxygen consumption during walking and inclusion of aerobic exercise is recommended.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Spierswakheid is 'n probleem vir baie jong mense met serebrale verlamming (SV). Navorsing het getoon dat selektiewe versterkende oefenprogramme selektiewe spiere kan versterk, maar die meeste studies bestaan uit 'n enkel groep met onvoldoende beheer oor verstrengelde veranderlikes. Doel: Om die impak van 'n omvattende versterkende oefenprogram met basiese, goedkoop gewigte en weerstandsaparaat wat vele spiergroepe teiken, op adolesente met spastiese SV te evalueer. Metodologie: Die effekte van 'n agt weke lang versterkende oefenprogram is op 31 onafhanklik mobiel adolesente met spastiese SV, met of sonder loophulpmiddel, van Eros Skool deur middel van 'n ewekansige kliniese proef geevalueer (19 manlike, 12 vroulike deelnemers; gemiddelde ouderdom 16 jaar 1 maand; omvang 13 - 18 jaar). Die Kin-Com dinamometer, "3-D gait analysis", die "Economy of Movement" toets en 'n vraelys is gebruik om geselekteerde spiersterkte, die hoeveelheid knie fleksie gesien in die onderste ledemaat tydens loop, loopspoed en treelengte, energieverbruik tydens loop asook persepsies van liggaamsbeeld en funksionelevermoë te evalueer. Een en twintig het in die versterkende oefenprogram deelgeneem en is met 10 kontrole deelnemers vergelyk. Resultate is met behulp van herhaalde metings "ANOVA" en "bootstrap analysis" geanaliseer. Resultate: In vergelyking met die kontrole groep, het die experimentele groep betekenisvolle verbetering getoon in die hoeveelheid fleksie gesien in die ondersteledemaat (p=0.05) soos bereken deur die som van die enkel-, knie- en heuphoek in midstaan fase tydens loop, asook in liggaamspersepsie (p=0.01). Beduidenisvolle tendense is ook gesien by die experimentele groep vir isometriese knie ekstensie spiersterkte by 30° asook vir heup abduksie by 10° en 20°. Energieverbruik tydens loop asook loopspoed en treelengte was onveranderd asook persepsie van funksionele vermoë. Gevolgtrekking: 'n Versterkende oefenprogram wat verskeie spiergroepe teiken, insluitende die onderste en boonste ledemate asook die romp, kan lei tot In verbetering in spiersterkte, minder fleksie in die onderste ledemate tydens loop asook 'n verbetering in ligaamspersepsie. Suksesvolle deelname aan so 'n program op skool, mag kinders dalk motiveer om In basiese versterkende oefenprogram tuis voort te sit. Versterkende oefening alleen het geen vermindering in suurstofverbruik tydens loop veroorsaak en die insluit van aerobiese oefening word aanbeveel.

Abstract:
Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva arbetsterapeuters erfarenheter av att använda sig av CI-terapi som intervention för barn med hemiplegisk cerebral pares. Metod: En kvalitativ ansats valdes för att beskriva arbetsterapeuternas subjektiva upplevelser. Åtta semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med arbetsterapeuter som arbetade på barn- och ungdomshabiliteringar i landet och analyserades därefter utifrån kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Den insamlade datan resulterade i fyra kategorier: Arbetsterapeutens stöd; Nätverkets betydelse; Anpassning av interventionen samt Organisatoriska strukturer. Resultatet visade att interventionen bör utgå från barnets motivation och lek i samverkan med barnets nätverk samt att interventionen mestadels bidrog till att barnet fick en utökad aktivitetsrepertoar. Vidare beskrevs att interventionen utfördes endast av några arbetsterapeuter runt om i landet då den är tidskrävande, kräver resurser och en tydlig struktur. Det framkom även att kollegialt stöd bland arbetsterapeuterna främjar genomförandet av CI-terapi. Slutsats: I studien framkommer att barnets aktivitetsrepertoar mestadels förbättrades med CI-terapi men kunde inte påvisas med nuvarande bedömningsinstrument.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to describe occupational therapists’ experience of using Constraint Induced Movement Therapy for children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Methods: A qualitative method was chosen to describe the subjective experiences of the occupational therapists. Eight semi structured interviews were conducted with occupational therapists that were working at different centres for child and adolescent rehabilitation in this country, thereafter the collected data was analysed using qualitative content analysis. Result: The results were divided into four categories: The occupational therapist’s support, The importance of the network, Adaptation of the intervention and The organisational structures. The result indicate that the intervention should be centred on the child’s motivation and play in collaboration with the child’s social network and the intervention usually leads to an extended activity repertoire for the child. Furthermore, the result indicates the intervention to be time consuming, demanding extensive structure and resources, which led to the intervention was performed by only a few occupational therapists. It also appeared that collegial support among occupational therapists promotes the implementation of Constraint Induced Movement Therapy. Conclusion: The study show that the child’s range of activities often were improved when using Constraint Induced Movement Therapy, but this could not be proven with today’s assessment instrument.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Participation in meaningful occupations is what defines us as human beings and is an important indicator of health and well-being. It is the way we experience the world around us and is closely linked to quality of life. As an occupational therapist at a school for learners with special educational needs, the researcher was interested in how young adults with a diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy (CP) who attended this school, experience their participation or the lack thereof in occupations and if it contributes to meaning and fulfilment in their lives? She established through informal conversation with some of these young adults or their parents, that they experience unemployment, unhappiness and poor integration within the community. The aim of this study was therefore to describe how young adults living with CP in economically disadvantaged communities within the Western Cape, experience the quality of their participation in meaningful occupations. A qualitative phenomenological study design was used, enabling the researcher to explore the value and meaning participants attach to different occupations, the participants perceptions of their experience and the factors impacting on their participation. The study population was young adults between the ages of 18-28 years with a diagnosis of CP, who attended the previously mentioned school and who exited school over the duration of the past nine years. The researcher used purposive maximum variation sampling, to ensure variation in terms of diagnosis, living arrangements, employment and marital status. Data collection took the form of ten face-to-face semi-structured individual interviews and inductive content analysis was utilized to analyse data. The following four themes emerged from the data: overcoming challenges; having equal opportunities; barriers holding me back and the future is mine to shape. These young adults participated in a variety of meaningful occupations and have learned to utilize various strategies to overcome the difficulties they faced in this process. The following factors influenced their participation positively: having meaningful relationships; accepting their disability and nurturing a positive attitude; being proud of their achievements; positive work experiences and involvement in the community. Factors contributing to these young adults not experiencing meaningful participation were the following: their perception of themselves and also how they perceived being treated by others; non-acceptance of their physical circumstances and disability; incompetence and poor self-confidence; termination of previously meaningful occupations; challenges with interpersonal relationships and unsatisfactory work experiences. The need to be as independent as possible was of utmost importance to all these young adults, as it was an indicator of being in control of their own lives. Given the above information, the researcher recommends a transition preparation program for senior phase learners that will include sessions on work habits, social skills, transportation, self-employment and integration into the community to be implemented at the school. Supported employment options should be explored as well to ensure maximum employment among these learners exiting school. A follow-up system should be established to evaluate the effectiveness of the above-mentioned program.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Deelname in betekenisvolle aktiwiteite is uniek aan die mens en is ook ‘n belangrike aanduiding van gesondheid en welstand. Ons ervaar die wêreld rondom ons deur betekenisvolle deelname, was nou verbind word kwaliteit van lewe. Tydens haar werk as ‘n arbeidsterpeut by ‘n skool vir leerders met spesiale onderrig behoeftes, het die navorser begin belangstel in hoe jongmense met ‘n diagnose van serebraalgestremdheid (wat oudleerders is) hulle deelname aan aktiwiteite of die gebrek daaraan ervaar en of dit bydra tot betekenisvolheid en vervulling in hulle lewens. Sy het deur informele gesprekke met van hierdie jongmense of hul ouers vasgestel dat hulle ervaring ongelukkig, werkloos and swak geïntegreed in hulle gemeenskap is. Die doel van hierdie studie was dus om te beskryf hoe jongmense met ‘n diagnose van serebraalgestremdheid wat in ekonomies benadeelde gemeenskappe binne the Weskaapse Provinsie woon, die kwaliteit van hul deelname aan betekenisvolle aktiwiteite ervaar. Die navorser het ‘n kwalitatiewe fenomenologiese studie ontwerp gebruik sodat sy die volgende aspekte kon verken: die waarde en betekenis wat die studie deelnemers aan spesifieke aktiwiteite heg; hulle persepsie van hulle ervaringe, asook die faktore wat deelname beïnvloed. Die studiepopulasie was jongmense tussen die ouderdomme van 18-28 jaar oud met ‘n diagnose van serebraalgestremdheid, wat die bogenoemde skool bygewoon en verlaat het in die afgelope nege jaar. Die navorser het ‘n doelgerigte maksimum variasie steekproef gebruik, om sodoende variasie in terme van diagnose, verblyf, werk en getroude status te verseker. Data was ingesamel deur middel van tien semi-gestruktureerde individuele onderhoude. Induktiewe inhoud-analise was gebruik om die data te ontleed en die volgende vier temas het na vore gekom naamlik: om uitdagings te oorkom; om gelyke geleenthede te hê; hindernisse wat my terughou en die toekoms is myne om te vorm. Hierdie jongmense neem deel aan ’n groot verskeidenheid aktiwiteite en het deur ondervinding verskeie strategieë aangeleer om die probleme wat hulle ervaar het te oorkom. Die volgende faktore het hulle deelname positief beïnvloed: betekenisvolle interpersoonlike verhoudings; aanvaarding van hulle gestremdheid en koestering van ‘n positiewe houding; trots op hulle prestasies; positiewe werkservaringe en betrokkenheid in hulle gemeenskap. Die faktore wat bygedrae het tot swak deelname aan aktiwiteite was die volgende: hul self-persepsie, asook hul persepsie van hoe ander hulle behandel; nie-aanvaarding van hulle gestremdheid en fisiese omstandighede; swak selfvertroue en gevoelens van onbevoegdheid; die staking van vorige betekenisvolle aktiwiteite; uitdagings in hulle verhoudings en onbevredigende werkservaringe. Hul onafhanklikheid is vir hierdie jongmense van uiterste belang, want dit is ‘n aanduiding dat hulle in beheer is van hulle eie lewens. Na aanleiding van bogenoemde informasie, maak die narvorser die volgende aanbeveling: Om ‘n voorbereidings program vir senior fase leerders te begin, wat sessies van werksgewoontes, sosiale vaardighede, transport, self-indiensneming en integrasie in die gemeenskap insluit. Die moontlikheid van ondersteunde indiensneming moet ook verken word, om maksimale indiensneming onder hierdie jongmense te verseker. ‘n Opvolg sisteem moet ook in plek gestel word om die doeltreffendheid van bogenoemde program te bepaal.

Abstract:
Background and rationale. Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the most common disabling disorders of childhood and constitutes a substantial portion of pediatric rehabilitation. This condition demands comprehensive rehabilitation using age-appropriate tasks and activities and encompassing aspects of body function and structure, activity and participation, and personal and environmental factors. Yet little is known regarding actual occupational therapy (OT) and physical therapy (PT) practices.
Objective. The primary objective of this doctoral thesis was to describe OT and PT practices for young children with CP in the Province of Quebec, Canada.
Methods. This was a cross-sectional, multi-centered survey. All eligible and consenting pediatric occupational therapists (OTs) and physical therapists (PTs) were interviewed using a structured telephone interview based on vignettes of two typical children with CP at two age points---18 months and 4 years. Reported practices were grouped according to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF). Literature review of pediatric assessments and interventions potentially used for CP was done to determine their level of evidence of effectiveness. In addition, two expert groups provided, for each vignette, a best practice problem identification list and a best practice intervention list.
Results. A total of 62 PTs (83.8% participation rate) and 85 OTs (91.4% participation rate) participated in the study. Overall, 91.9% of PTs and 67.1% of OTs reported using at least one standardized pediatric assessment for at least one vignette. OT and PT interventions focused primarily on impairments and primary function, with less attention to interventions related to play and recreation/leisure. Clinicians reported the need for more training and education specific to CP and to the use of research findings in clinical practice. Wide variations and gaps were identified in therapists' responses suggesting the need for a basic standard of PT and OT management as well as strategies to encourage knowledge dissemination regarding current best practice. Further, implementation of evidence-based practice necessitates more collaboration between researchers, clinicians and administrators.

Abstract:
The “National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke” defines Cerebral Palsy as a neurological disorder that affects body movement and muscle coordination. This condition usually appears at birth or during the first three years of life [3]. Treatment for children with Cerebral Palsy is extensive and can include any or all of the following: physical/occupational therapy, speech therapy, medicine, surgery, and orthopedic devices. Physical therapy involves having the child perform several repetitions of a set of exercises that will target the specific muscle group that needs to be worked on. A technique that has recently been employed in physical therapy is the use of video games [2], this allows the therapist to have the child perform similar sets of exercises while at the same time motivate and entertain the child.
