Abstract:

ABSTRACTBackground: Physiotherapy plays a central role in the management of children with cerebral palsy (CP); however, literature describing the use of physiotherapy service and the factors affecting utilization of physiotherapy service for this group of children in the Indian context remain unexplored. Aims and Objectives: To describe the utilization of physiotherapy services and explore the factors affecting utilization of physiotherapy services among children with CP of Jalandhar district of Punjab. Methodology: During June 2009 to March 2012 interview of family members of 248 children with CP (male = 159; female = 89) was conducted using a schedule focusing on demography, constraints of resources, expectations, beliefs, awareness, and service utilization. Cross tabulation with Chi-square, univariate, and multivariate logistic regression analysis were the tools of statistical analysis. Results: 44.4% children had not received any physiotherapy in their life time. In univariate analysis exposure to physiotherapy was found significantly associated with age of diagnosis (odds ratio [OR] = 2.47), finance constraint (OR = 2.27), personal constraint (OR = 2.54), transportation constraint (OR = 3.01), lack of advice for rehabilitation (OR = 2.36), ignorance about condition (OR = 11.94), and rehabilitation services (OR = 2.88). Multivariate model (χ2 = 57.16, df = 15, P < 0.001, pseudo R2 Cox and Snell = 0.22, Nagelkerke = 0.27) identified two main predictor variables of nonexposure to physiotherapy-ignorance about condition (OR = 7.3) and expectation of normalcy (OR = 0.43). Conclusion: The main drivers for the use of physiotherapy among children with CP in Jalandhar district of Punjab were awareness about the condition of CP and expectation of normalcy which demonstrated a complex relationship with sociodemographic factors.

Abstract:

Introduction: Cerebral palsy is the leading cause of disability worldwide and Zambia has its fair share of cases. Most parents/caregivers of children with Cerebral palsy at University Teaching Hospital started attending physiotherapy late when their children were over one year Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the perceptions of mothers towards factors contributing to late physiotherapy intervention of children with Cerebral palsy at University Teaching Hospital. Furthermore, assess the knowledge of mothers with children between 0-5 years on the role of physiotherapy in Cerebral palsy. Methodology: An exploratory study design using qualitative methods was used. Data collection techniques were FGDs that consisted of purposively sampling of 10 mothers of children with CP attending physiotherapy at University Teaching Hospital. Audio-recording from the FGDs was transcribed verbatim for each session by an independent person. The study employed thematic analysis for data analysis. The data was classified systematically by means of coding to identify key factors or issues such as concepts, categories, themes and the relationship between them. Results: This study identified four themes on factors that influence late physiotherapy intervention of children with Cerebral Palsy at University Teaching Hospital. These included: Socio-economic support; late referral for Physiotherapy; Caregiver’s knowledge about Cerebral Palsy; and People’s attitude towards Cerebral Palsy. Limited caregiver knowledge about the role of physiotherapy in Cerebral Palsy was reported to be due to; limited community awareness about physiotherapy; and lack of caregiver education. Conclusion: The present study sought to explore the perceptions of mothers towards factors contributing to late physiotherapy intervention in children with Cerebral Palsy. A diversity of factors that led to delayed intervention was highlighted. Rehabilitation professionals should be aware of the factors that impact mothers both positively and negatively in order to implement effective rehabilitation programs.

Abstract:

Rotationplasty is a surgical intervention generally performed in children but its use is rare, especially in children. In this procedure the proximal part of the lower limb is removed and its distal part is rotated 180° and reattached. To increase the patient’s chances of returning to daily activities, it is necessary to implement individual physiotherapeutic management. The aim of the study was to present the schemes and methods of physiotherapeutic treatment in the rotational plastic surgery performed. The physiotherapeutic program implemented in the course of rotationoplasty should include preoperative, post-operative pre-prosthetic and post-operative post-prosthetic rehabilitation. It is also important to prevent and treat potential post-operative complications.

Abstract:

Cerebral palsy (CP) is known as the main developmental disability among infants and children. The brain injury is associated with pre or postnatal period. A physiotherapy is an effective tool of rehabilitation and restoration of the children with CP.  Objectives: The main purpose of the study was to evaluate the role of physiotherapy in the rehabilitation of the CP children. The main intention of this study was to examine the perception of parents and health professionals about the role of physiotherapy in the rehabilitation process of CP children Methods: This study design is cross sectional and survey method was adopted and purposive sampling method was used for data collection. A Likert scale questionnaire was adopted for data collection from (n = 158) parents, (n = 14) allied health professionals, and (n = 3) physiotherapists of Bhakkar. It was hypothesized that physiotherapy has a significant role in the rehabilitation of CP children. An independent t-test and one-way ANOVA was applied for statistical analysis.  Results and Conclusions: Results showed that physiotherapy plays a significant role in the rehabilitation (P < .00), and postural control (P <. 01) of CP children. The perception of the physiotherapists and allied health professionals were the same regarding the role of physiotherapy in the rehabilitation (P <. 00), function independent and social participation (p < .00), postural control (P < .00) and motor function (P < .02) of the CP children. On the other hand, it was also concluded the regular physiotherapy increases rehabilitation process of CP children. The physiotherapists and allied health professional were satisfied with rehabilitation process. In contrast, the perception of parents was unsatisfactory because they desire the rehabilitate procedure should be shorter. It is suggested that physiotherapists and allied health professionals may educate the parents about the rehabilitation procedure.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Physiotherapy is an integral part of treatment for paediatric burns. In Zimbabwe, children are admitted in paediatric burn unit with their caregivers, who play important roles such as providing explanation and obtaining cooperation of the child during physiotherapy, which is often uncomfortable or painful to the patient. The aim of this study was to determine the perspectives of caregivers towards physiotherapy interventions administered to hospitalized children at central hospitals in Harare, Zimbabwe. Methods A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted using self-administered questionnaires. The study was carried out at two large central hospitals (Parirenyatwa Hospital and Harare Central Hospital). The study targeted all the caregivers of children below the age of 12 years with a diagnosis of burns, irrespective of severity or area affected, who were admitted in the two paediatric burn units. Of the 34 caregivers eligible to participate, 31 (91.1 %) questionnaires had complete data and were analysed. The analyses were done using Statistica version 12.0. Results The median age of the caregivers was 28 years (IQR = 24–33 years). Female caregivers constituted 90.3 % of the sample. The majority of the caregivers (n = 26, 83.9 %) were biological mothers to the hospitalised child. The majority of children (n = 20, 64.5 %) hospitalised were between 0 and 4 years. The commonest cause of burns was scalding (n = 19, 61.2 %). The burns were mainly in the upper extremities (n = 11, 35.5 %). Physiotherapy for the burns was mainly active and passive joint range of motion exercises (n = 30, 96.8 %). The caregivers’ perceptions towards physiotherapy were mainly positive (n = 20, 64.5 %) indicating that physiotherapy plays an important role in burn management. Of the 21 caregivers given a ward exercise programme, 13 (61.9 %) were not compliant. Conclusions Caregivers’ perspectives towards physiotherapy were largely positive and are similar to those found in other studies. The majority of the caregivers indicated that physiotherapy was important in the overall management of burns leading to proper healing of the wounds without complications.

Abstract:

Introduction: Temporary stiffness of elbow range of motion (ROM) after treatment of supracondylar humeral fracture in children is often a parental concern.Objectives: We examined the role of physiotherapy in improving the elbow ROM in management of supracondylar humeral fracture in children.Methodology: Sixty-four patients were randomly divided into intervention and control groups. Then intervention group patients received regular physiotherapy sessions while control group patients were not sent for physiotherapy. We assessed the outcome according to Flynn criteria during their follow-ups at two, six and 12 weeks, after removal of cast/k-wires.Results: In intervention group, 77.4% children had excellent outcome, and in control group, 80.6% children had excellent outcome. However, we did not find any statistically significant association between physiotherapy and outcome at 12 weeks, after controlling for baseline characteristics in multivariable regression model.Conclusion: Children managed by close reduction for uncomplicated supracondylar humeral fracture with immobilization for three weeks regain their functional ROM within 12 weeks of mobilization by themselves, with no added benefit from physiotherapy.BJHS 2018;3(2)6: 432-436.

Abstract:

This study explored current physiotherapy practice trends for management of children who are overweight or obese. The professional needs of physiotherapists working with this population were also assessed, including the perceived need for physiotherapy clinical guidelines for prevention and management of children with obesity. A cross-sectional survey design was used, with questionnaires purposefully distributed through 13 key physiotherapy services throughout Australia. Snowball sampling resulted in completed questionnaires from 64 physiotherapists who provided services to children. Half (n = 33, 52%) of respondents provided services specifically to overweight or obese children. Of those providing services, one-quarter had prior training specific to working with this population. Most used multi-disciplinary models (n = 16, 76%) and provided under 5 h of obesity-related services each week (n = 29, 88%). Half (n = 16, 49%) used body mass index as an outcome measure but more (n = 25, 76%) used bodyweight. Only 14 (42%) assessed motor skills. The majority of respondents (n = 57, 89%) indicated a need for physiotherapy guidelines to best manage overweight and obese children. Professional development priorities included: ‘Educating children and families’, ‘Assessment methods’ and ‘Exercise prescription’ for overweight and obese children. This data provides workforce intelligence to guide future professional training and inform development of clinical guidelines for physiotherapists in prevention and management of children with obesity and related chronic disease.

Abstract:

This article reviews the methods of medical rehabilitation used in the complex treatment of children with chronic constipation. Medical rehabilitation of children with chronic constipation is a complex system of measures that include rational nutrition, medication therapy, physiotherapy, kinesotherapy, massage, etc. The main objectives of the medical rehabilitation of children with chronic constipation are normalization of the passage through the intestines, improvement of tone of the pelvic floor muscles, restoration of the defecation reflex. The article describes the methods of physiotherapy used in the treatment of chronic constipation in children in combination with diet, daily regimen, drug treatment, physiotherapy exercises and massage: amplipulse therapy, interference therapy, ultrasound therapy, percutaneous electroneurostimulation, fluctotuorization, high-intensity magnetic therapy, transient transduction. The methods of balneotherapy are widely used: the internal and external use of mineral waters, as well as heat therapy and peloidotherapy. Natural and artificial physical factors are assigned differentially, taking into account the type of intestinal motility disorder. One of the promising directions of modern physiotherapy is to study the combined and combined use of two physical factors that increase the effectiveness of the medical rehabilitation program for children with chronic constipation. Methods of medical and psychological correction are of great importance in the medical rehabilitation of children with chronic constipation. The medical rehabilitation of children with chronic constipation is carried out taking into account the individual program of medical rehabilitation of the child, which makes it possible to increase the efficiency of medical rehabilitation and the patient’s quality of life.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction: Down Syndrome (DS) is a genetic disorder that causes global delay in development, including motor function, language and cognitive. Physiotherapy is offered from birth in order to stimulate the acquisition of motor skills. Early intervention presents most benefits, as neural plasticity is at its peak in the first months of life. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the profile of physiotherapy intervention for children with DS during their first three years in specialized institutions. Methods: Data for this qualitative study were collected through semi-structured interviews, with 11 physiotherapists who worked in São Paulo coastal and metropolitan areas. Results: Results indicate that, although most professionals use the internet as a means to being up-to-date, and doing specialized courses, not always in pediatric neurology, they felt safe to work in the area shortly after graduation, using the principles of Bobath Concept, characterized by 30-minute therapies, with a frequency of once to twice per week to guide treatment. Conclusion: Data should serve as a basis for parents' reflections, who must seek to know the experience of therapists who attend to their children, as well as institutions to encourage professionals to update their knowledge and search for appropriate expertise, in order to optimize therapy.

Abstract:

Abstract INTRODUCTION The COVID-19 pandemic has led to widespread change in the delivery of rehabilitation. The Teenage Cancer Trust reported that 69% of young people with cancer saw their physiotherapist less than usual during the pandemic raising concerns about physiotherapy input. METHODS Retrospective analysis of all children’s therapy input managed under the Neuro Oncology Rehabilitation Team (NORT) between 1st April and 30th July 2020. Descriptive analysis of change to physiotherapy provision during this time period by Tertiary and local community services. RESULTS 49 children were managed under the NORT Therapy Team during this timeframe. 9 children were newly diagnosed with CNS tumours. There was no impact on inpatient therapy provision, 3 had delayed local therapy provision on discharge requiring increased virtual input by the Tertiary centre. 40 children were outpatients managed under the NORT therapy team. 16 children were also receiving regular local physiotherapy input prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. 13 of these children subsequently had their local physiotherapy input suspended during this time period, 8 children were offered virtual input as an alternative by the Tertiary centre, 2 children received increased face to face appointments at the Tertiary centre. 14 of the 24 children managed solely under the Tertiary NORT Therapy Team changed to virtual therapy reviews. DISCUSSION There is a clear change in therapy provision as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Future research should consider the effectiveness of neurorehabilitation conducted virtually and the impact on physical function of reduced local therapy provision in children with CNS tumours.

Abstract:

Background. Children with autism disorder show atypical preference for non-social stimuli. Therefore, the deficits of social communication and social interest are primary and usually named features for the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The main idea of the present work was to show that the physiotherapy sessions (PS) were some of the ways that could improve the physical condition of children with ADS. Moreover, the application of such programs increased self-esteem, communication skills and permitted a better adaptation and integration within society. Methods. Eleven children attending kindergarten for children with special needs participated in this investigation. The inclusion criteria were a clinical diagnosis of ASD. All participants had F 84.0 code in their cases and were specified for grade II autism disorder according to the American Psychiatric Association (2014). The investigation process consisted of four stages: the initial testing, the application of the physiotherapy program (PS), the post-application testing and the analysis, interpretation and comparison of obtained results. The investigation process was applied for six weeks. Results. After PS applications, the children’s balance improved by 21.32%, coordination – 23.36%, physical and functional abilities such as speed (13.18%) and explosive leg strength (37.14%). Conclusions. The physiotherapy sessions improved the physical condition of children with ADS: balance, coordination, functional abilities and the explosive leg strength. The capability to do physical exercises in a group, at home or in individual sessions with specialist improved as well. Keywords: pre-school children, individual physiotherapy program, social skills.

Abstract:

The aim. to optimize the treatment of children with ADHD who often suffer from recurrent infections by justifying the effectiveness of a therapeutic and physiotherapy complex that includes a BOS-bioacoustic effect on the head area and NILI on the projection of the cubital area and thymus. Method of research. In children (140 people) with a verified diagnosis of ADHD, often suffering from recurrent infection, humoral-cellular immunity indicators (immunoglobulins: IgA; IgG; IgM); T-and B-lymphocytes; cytokines) were studied in the dynamics of the use of therapeutic measures. Depending on the applied physiotherapy method of treatment, the children were divided into 3 groups: the 1st group-received NILI on the projection of the cubital area and thymus, the 2nd – received BOS-bioacoustic effect on the head area, the 3rd – developed physiotherapy complex, including BOS-bioacoustic effect on the head area and NILI on the projection of the cubital area and thymus. Conclusion. the developed physiotherapy complex, including BOS-bioacoustic effect on the head area and NILI on the projection of the cubital area and thymus, can be considered as a therapeutic and preventive model of respiratory viral attacks in children with SSDVNS, since it reduces the number of recurrent viral attacks by 3.7 times, correcting the activity of circulating cytokines, T-lymphocytes (CD3+), T-helpers (CD4+) and T-suppressors (CD8+) in the population white blood cells.

Abstract:

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the role of a chest physiotherapy (CP) intervention to no intervention on the respiratory status of children under two years of age, with mild-to-moderate bronchiolitis. Methods: Out of 80 eligible children observed in the Emergency Room, 45 children completed the study with 28 randomized to the intervention group and 17 to the control group. The intervention protocol, applied in an ambulatory setting, consisted of combined techniques of passive prolonged slow expiration, rhinopharyngeal clearance and provoked cough. The control group was assessed with no chest physiotherapy intervention. The efficacy of chest physiotherapy was assessed using the Kristjansson Respiratory Score at the admission and discharge of the visit to the Emergency Room and during clinical visits at day 7 and day 15. Results: There was a significant improvement in the Kristjansson Respiratory Score in the intervention group compared to the control group at day 15 [1.2 (1.5) versus 0.3 (0.5); [Formula: see text]-value[Formula: see text], in the control and intervention groups, respectively], with a mean difference (95% CI) of [Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text]).

Abstract:

Lung damage in cystic fibrosis (CF) is strongly associated with lower airway infections. Early treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is recommended. Pathogen detection requires sampling of lower airway secretions, which remains a challenge in nonexpectorating patients. Our hypothesis was that chest physiotherapy would improve the quality of airway secretion samples and increase the rates of pathogens detected in nonexpectorating patients.This prospective multicentre study compared three successive methods for sampling airway secretions applied through the same session: 1) an oropharyngeal swab (OP), 2) a chest physiotherapy session followed by a provoked cough to obtain sputum (CP-SP) and 3) a second oropharyngeal swab collected after chest physiotherapy (CP-OP). Haemophilus influenzae, Staphylococcus aureus and P. aeruginosa growth cultures were assessed. Accuracy tests and an equivalence test were performed to compare the three successive methods of collection.300 nonexpectorating children with CF were included. P. aeruginosa was detected cumulatively in 56 (18.9%) children, and according to the different collection methods in 28 (9.8%), 37 (12.4%) and 44 (14.7%) children by using OP, CP-OP and CP-SP, respectively. Compared with OP, the increased detection rate was +22% for CP-OP (p=0.029) and +57% for CP-SP (p=0.003). CP-SP had the best positive predictive value (86.3%) and negative predictive value (96.0%) for P. aeruginosa compared with the overall detection.The results of this adequately powered study show differences in the rates of pathogens detected according to the sampling method used. Chest physiotherapy enhanced detection of P. aeruginosa in nonexpectorating children with CF.

Abstract:

Croup is the single most common cause of death from airway obstruction, taking all ages into account. The patient’s general appearance is an extremely unreliable guide to the severity of the obstruction in croup and specific signs must be used in the assessment. Management is discussed. It is emphasized that chest physiotherapy is specifically contra-indicated in conservatively managed children with croup. But in children who have had artificial airways inserted for life-threatening airway obstruction regular intensive chest physiotherapy is essential.

Abstract:

Acute bacterial-destructive pneumonia is one of the most severe chronic inflammatory diseases of childhood, occurs in 10-15% of pneumonia in children. The effectiveness of physiotherapeutic procedures (ultrahigh frequency electric field on the inflammatory focus, magnetotherapy, electrophoresis with polymineral napkins based on natural iodide-bromine water) was evaluated in the framework of the complex treatment of pneumonia in children, which included the use of conservative and surgical methods. The early appointment of complex physiotherapy treatment improved the patients’ condition on the 3rd-4th day, thanks to the mobilization of energy resources of biological tissues, the activation of metabolic processes and the immune system of the body. The combined application of physical (permanent galvanic current) and chemical factors had an anti-inflammatory, absorbable effect, prevented the development of pleural adhesions.

Abstract:

This study investigated the clinical feasibility of electrical stimulation in enhancing ankle dorsiflexion of the tibialis anterior muscle to improve mobility in children with spastic cerebral palsy. The intervention group received electrical stimulation therapy for 30 minutes and physiotherapy for another 30 minutes for 5 days a week, up to 12 weeks. Gait parameters, Gross Motor Function Measure, Physiological Cost Index, surface electromyogram, and electroencephalogram (EEG) data were recorded pre- and posttreatment. Data were compared with the control group, which received only conventional physiotherapy for 60 minutes. There was an increase in walking speed (17.67%) and Gross Motor Function Measure scores (2.1%) while the Physiological Cost Index value was decreased (19.7%). The analysis of features extracted from the surface electromyogram showed an increase in muscle strength and that of EEG showed increased motor activities. Hence, electrical stimulation combined with conventional physiotherapy improve gait, muscle strength, and motor activities in children with spastic cerebral palsy.

Abstract:

Many factors, including psychological ones, affect the feeling of pain and coping with it. The aim of the study was to analyze the relationship between family status, and the subjective intensity of pain and coping strategies, in people suffering from chronic motor organ pain. 176 adults were examined. The diagnostic survey was used as well as the following tools: 10-point visual analogue scale to assess the severity of pain, Questionnaire on the Strategy of Coping with Pain (CSQ), the authors’own questionnaire. The mean pain intensity was 5.71 ± 1.97 points. The most cognitive coping strategy was the declared coping (61.81 ± 20.25). The most frequently used behavior strategies were: analgesics (72.97%), parapharmaceuticals (45.27%), physiotherapy (57.43%). It has been shown that people with a partner are more likely to use physiotherapy than singles (p<0.01). People who do not have children: feel less pain than people with one child (p<0.05), pray less frequently than people with two children (p<0.05), use catastrophic thinking less often than people with one child (p<0.05) or two children (p<0.05). People with two children significantly more often than childless people or parents of large families use painkillers (p<0.001), parapharmaceuticals (p<0.05), and physiotherapy (p<0.01). In conclusion, the number of children is related to the severity of feeling pain and the use of specific cognitive and behavioral coping strategies in people with chronic motor organ pain. Partner status is not related to the intensity of pain or the remedial strategies, except for the use of physiotherapy.

Abstract:

Abstract Traditionally, physiotherapy for cystic fibrosis focused mainly on airway clearance (clearing mucus from the lungs). This still makes up a large part of daily treatment, but the role of the physiotherapist in cystic fibrosis has expanded to include daily exercise, inhalation therapy, posture awareness and, for some, the management of urinary incontinence. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the necessity and the efficiency of various methods of chest physiotherapy and individualized unsupervised exercise program, in the improvement of body composition and physical performance. This study included 12 children with cystic fibrosis, with ages between 8-13 years. Each subject was evaluated in terms of body composition, effort capacity and lower body muscular performance, at the beginning of the study and after 12 months. The intervention consisted in classic respiratory clearance and physiotherapy techniques (5 times a week) and an individualized unsupervised exercise program (3 times a week). After 12 months we noticed a significant improvement of the measured parameters: body weight increased from 32.25±5.5 to 33.53±5.4 kg (p <0.001), skeletal muscle mass increased from a mean of 16.04±4.1 to 17.01±4.2 (p<0.001), the fitness score, increased from a mean of 71±3.8 points to73±3.8, (p<0.001) and power and force also registered positive evolutions (from 19.3±2.68 to 21.65±2.4 W/kg and respectively 19.68±2.689 to 20.81±2.98 N/kg). The association between physiotherapy procedures and an individualized (after a proper clinical assessment) unsupervised exercise program, proved to be an effective, relatively simple and accessible (regardless of social class) intervention.

Abstract:

This study aimed to investigate the short and long-term effects of Whole-Body Vibration (WBV) therapy on spasticity and motor performance in children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy. We recruited 26 patient participants from among children undergoing conventional physiotherapy in a private rehabilitation center. We randomly assigned 22 participants to equally sized treatment (n = 11) and control (n = 11) groups. We evaluated the participants at the beginning of the study with the Gross Motor Function Measure-88, LEGSys™ Spatio-Temporal Gait Analyzer, SportKAT550™ Portable Computerized Kinesthetic Balance Device and the Modified Ashworth Scale. While children in the treatment group were treated with Compex-Winplate™ to administer WBV in three 15-minute sessions per week for eight weeks, children in the control group received continued conventional physiotherapy during this period. We then re-evaluated all participants both immediately after the treatment and again 12 weeks after the treatment. Following WBV, both gross motor functions and gait and balance skills were significantly improved ( p < 0.05), and spasticity in lower and upper extremity muscles was significantly inhibited ( p < 0.05). These improvements were preserved even after 12 weeks. We conclude that WBV is an effective incremental approach to conventional physiotherapy in children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy for inhibiting spasticity and improving motor performance.

Abstract:

Introduction. Arterial hypertension (AH) is a widely occurring disease of the cardiovascular system in the children’s population, which often debuts in childhood, persists into adulthood, which dictates the need for early treatment and prevention of arterial hypertension. The formation of AH is associated with maladaptation of physiological mechanisms of self-regulation, with a complex interaction of psychosocial and genetic factors. The use of non-medicinal agents to reduce blood pressure is a starting approach in the treatment of children and adolescents with hypertension and complements medication therapy. Purpose. analysis of literature sources on the effectiveness of hardware physiotherapy methods in the treatment of hypertension in children. Discussion. In the treatment of children with hypertension, the leading role belongs to hardware physiotherapy technologies. Widely used sedative, hypotensive and vegetative-corrective methods are pathogenetically justified and can be used at all stages of arterial hypertension development. Transcranial pulsed electrotherapy (transcranial electrostimulation, electroson, infitotherapy), darsonvalization, aromafitotherapy and medicinal electrophoresis of sedatives belong sedative methods aimed at enhancing inhibitory processes in the Central nervous system. Amplipulster therapy, intermittent normobaric hypoxytherapy, low-intensity magnetic therapy, medicinal electrophoresis of spasmolytic drugs, EHF therapy, laser therapy, which lead to a decrease in arterial hypertension and improve microcirculation, are hypotensive methods. Bio-controlled aerionotherapy, aimed at correcting vegetative dysfunction, is a vegetative corrective method. Conclusion. Currently, there is a wide range of scientifically-based methods of hardware physiotherapy used in the medical rehabilitation of children with arterial hypertension, allowing to improve cerebral hemodynamics, normalize neurophysiological and hemodynamic processes in the Central nervous system, provide sedative and hypotensive effects, stimulate peripheral vasodepressor mechanisms, normalize neuroendocrine processes. The use of hardware physiotherapy methods in the complex treatment of hypertension can improve the quality of life of patients, achieve stable normalization of blood pressure, and reduce the risk of early cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract:

BackgroundChest physiotherapy has been used to treat children hospitalised with pneumonia with no clear scientific evidence to support a beneficial effect. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the efficacy of chest physiotherapy as an adjuvant treatment in children hospitalised with acute community-acquired pneumonia.MethodsChildren (aged 1–12 years) with a clinical and confirmed radiological diagnosis of pneumonia sequentially admitted to a tertiary children hospital were eligible for this study. Participants were randomly selected to receive a standardised respiratory physiotherapy (positioning, thoracic vibration, thoracic compression, positive expiratory pressure, breathing exercises and forced exhalation with the glottis open or ‘huffing’) three times daily in the ‘intervention group’ or a non-mandatory request to breathe deeply, expectorate the sputum and maintain a lateral body position once a day in the ‘control group’. The primary outcomes were reduction in respiratory rate and severity score (respiratory rate, recession, fever, oxygen saturation and chest x-ray) from baseline to discharge. Secondary outcome was duration of hospitalisation.ResultsIn all, 72 patients were randomly allocated to the intervention (n=35) or control (n=37) groups. There were no differences at admission on severity of pneumonia between groups. Respiratory rate and severity score significant decreased between admission to discharge within each group; however, there were no differences when comparing groups. Also, there was no significant difference in duration of hospitalisation between the control and intervention groups (6 vs 8 days, p=0.11, respectively).ConclusionsThis clinical trial suggests that, in children hospitalised with moderate community-acquired pneumonia, chest physiotherapy did not have clinical benefits in comparison to control group.

Abstract:

Background/Aims Relearning to walk is an important goal for many children and young people after acquired brain injury. Rhythmic auditory stimulation uses rhythm to support gait retraining. Its efficacy has been shown for adults with acquired brain injury and children and young people with cerebral palsy. No studies exist for children and young people with acquired brain injury. The aim of this pilot study was to investigate whether the addition of rhythmic auditory stimulation to standard physiotherapy improves children and young people's gait speed and quality after severe acquired brain injury. Methods Four children and young people (aged 10–13 years) with severe acquired brain injury accessing residential rehabilitation were recruited to a multiple baseline single case experimental design study, AB design. During baseline (A) phase children and young people accessed standard rehabilitation (10 physiotherapy sessions per week). In the intervention (B) phase, 2 out of the 10 standard physiotherapy sessions were replaced with rhythmic auditory stimulation. Length of baseline was randomised and intervention phases were 4 weeks. The 10 m walk test and Edinburgh Visual Gait Scale were completed pre and post sessions biweekly. Data analysis including visual analysis of level, slope and trend of the data will be presented with the results of a test of statistical significance. Results Data collection will finish in December 2018. Early results indicate that the quality of walking improved more during the intervention phase than the baseline phase for at least one of the participants, and rhythmic auditory stimulation was equal to normal physiotherapy in the other participants. Statistical testing is required. Conclusions Early results indicate that rhythmic auditory stimulation is at least as effective as normal physio in improving the walking quality of children and young people with acquired brain injury, but this needs to be confirmed. Recommendations for clinical practice and future studies can be made based on the findings and experience of this study.

Abstract:

Aim This study aimed to investigate whether children with cerebral palsy (CP) had equal access to timely physiotherapy. Additionally, to learn more about clinical characteristics of infants with CP, we explored differences in neonatal clinical history and CP profile between children referred by a neonatologist or enrolled in neonatal follow-up and those referred by other healthcare professionals as well as those referred before and after 5 months corrected age. Methods We conducted a retrospective chart review study including children born in Uppsala County, Sweden, from 2010 to 2016, who had received a CP diagnosis by July 2019. Entries by doctors and physiotherapists working at Uppsala University Children’s Hospital were reviewed. Results Thirty-eight children were included (21 girls, 55.3%) in the study. Twenty-two (57.9%) were born at term. Twenty-five children (66%) had their first visit to a physiotherapist before 5 months corrected age, and this included all children (n = 22, 57.9%) referred by a neonatologist or enrolled in neonatal follow-up. The latter group had significantly earlier access to physiotherapy compared to children referred by other healthcare professionals, with a median of 1.9 (min-max: -1-4) and 7.6 (min-max: 1–24) months, respectively (p < 0.0001). Referral source explained unique variance in predicting time of referral to physiotherapist (R2 0.550, B 4.213, p < 0.0001) when controlling for both number of risk factors and severity of motor impairment. However, number of risk factor was vital for early access to physiotherapy for children referred by other health care professionals. Children referred by a neonatologist or enrolled in neonatal follow-up or referred before 5 months corrected age differed on all measured variables concerning neonatal clinical history and CP profile, compared to children referred by other healthcare professionals or after 5 months corrected age. The latter groups had milder forms of CP. In total, twenty-eight children (73.7%) were ambulatory at 2 years of age. Bilateral spastic CP was most common among those referred by a neonatologist or enrolled in neonatal follow-up or referred before 5 months corrected age, while unilateral spastic CP was most common among those referred by other healthcare professionals or after 5 months corrected age. Conclusion Infants with CP have unequal access to timely physiotherapy, and children considered at low risk for CP receive therapy later. Neonatal follow-up of infants considered at high risk for CP that involves an assessment of motor performance using an evidence-based method during the first months of life corrected age seems to be effective in identifying CP early. Conversely, measuring milestone attainment seems to be a less reliable method for early identification. To provide safe and equal care, all professionals performing developmental surveillance should receive proper training and use evidence-based assessment methods. Physiotherapy should be available prior to formal medical diagnosis.

Abstract:

Analyzed studies on the use of physical factors in the medical rehabilitation of children with malignant tumors were enrolled from the following electronic databases: Scopus, Web of Science, MedLine, World Health Organization, The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Childhood Cancer Group, ScienceDirect, US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health, PubMed Cancer, elibrary, CyberLeninka. To treat complications that occur in children both during and after chemotherapy/radiotherapy for malignant tumors, physical training, massage, acupuncture, acupressure, electroneurostimulation, low-intensity laser radiation, laser irradiation of blood, laser puncture, magnetolaser therapy, local low-frequency low-intensity magnetotherapy were applied in an independent mode. Complex of artificial and natural medical factors in the rehabilitation of children in the period of remission was studied on the bases of various sanatoriums. Its clinical efficacy was practically assured but precise evidence of safety was not obtained yet. Nevertheless basing on this review, we can declare that the approach to pediatric oncology rehabilitation should be multidisciplinary. On the one hand, the therapy without physiotherapy intervention is absolutely unjustified; on the other hand, the application of various physical factors is also reckless. The physical factors included in the rehabilitation complex should be safe with no negative effect on the course of the underlying disease in children. To obtain such convincing evidence, it is extremely important both to analyze the long-term results of conducted studies (analysis should be performed by rehabilitation physicians together with oncologists who supervised pediatric patients) and to conduct well-organized controlled randomized academic studies on large clinical material.

Abstract:

Currently, there is a significant increase in the prevalence of obesity among children and adolescents of the world population. Overweight and obesity are a global epidemic of humanity. In economically developed countries, including Russia, on average, every third inhabitant has a weight that exceeds the maximum allowed. Russia ranks 15th in the world in the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents. Obesity is now considered as a chronic, relapsing disease associated with the development of a number of diseases that reduce life expectancy and reduce its quality. An important factor in demonstrating the urgency of the problem of child and adolescent obesity is its prognostically adverse effect on obesity in adulthood. The lack of targeted detection of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents in Russia accounts for its late diagnosis specialists. Complications of obesity affect the cardio vascular, reproductive, respiratory, nervous system, digestive organs, musculoskeletal system. In connection with the rise of obesity than the early detection of issues and preventive measures to prevent its further progression. Obesity in the early diagnosis and early treatment is a reversible condition. Important role in the treatment of obesity play a non-drug methods - diet, exercise stress, a variety of physical therapy, taking into account individual tolerance and comorbidity. Physiotherapy treatments have not only symptomatic but also the pathogenic effects, eliminating the primary metabolic and neuroendocrine disorders.
