Abstract:

Spina bifida myelomeningocele (SBM) is the most common and severe type of spina bifida which is a neural tube defect (NTD). Additionally to the defect of the spinal cord most cases of SBM develop an Arnold-Chiari-II malformation, which is the main reason behind the common development of hydrocephalus. Children with SBM have a rather different cognitive profile than typically developing children. Hence, this thesis reviews the neurological impact on the cognitive profile and its relation to the social impairments found for this population. The Arnold-Chiari-II malformation is a malformation of

Abstract:

This thesis reports a study which explored children's understanding and experience of spina bifida. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 8 children aged 8-11 years with spina bifida. A grounded theory approach was used to develop 'theories' from the data. Analysis of the data suggest that all participants were aware of 'being different' from their "normal" able-bodied siblings and peers and that many identified themselves in terms of having spina bifida; they spoke about being picked on, teased and about other types of bullying; and all of them disliked their physical appearance.

Abstract:

This thesis represents an attempt to further our knowledge of the ophthalmic complications of spina bifida and hydrocephalus by means of literature review and a long term clinical study, and to determine whether regular ophthalmic supervision can assist in the general management of affected children. The ophthalmic complications of spina bifida have often been reported in the literature and thought to merit regular supervision of affected children, yet few centres currently offer this service. In this study 322 children attending one regional centre were examined repeatedly over a six year per

Abstract:

PURPOSE: In order to transition to adulthood and independence, youth with spina bifida must assume significant self-management responsibilities including monitoring for shunt malfunction, maintaining intact skin in areas that are insensate, and maintaining proper bowel and bladder function. Validated measures of specific spina bifida self-management skills are lacking and this hampers the ability of clinical personnel to support successful transition for youth with spina bifida. METHODS: We developed a self-report measure specific to SB self-management skills consistent with the framework of t

Abstract:

Magister Artium - MA<br>Background: Spina Bifida (SB) is one of the leading causes of disability in children globally. Its management in Sub-Saharan countries is quite challenging and has shown to be an expensive public health problem. A recent study on SB has shown that physiotherapy is poorly utilised in Zambia. Although it is very cardinal in the rehabilitation of children right from birth, very little is known on the role of physiotherapy in the management of children with SB. Aim: To investigate the role of physiotherapy in the management of SB patients both at the University Teaching Hos

Abstract:

Background: Spina bifida (SB) is monitored through birth defects surveillance across the United States and in most developed countries. Although much is known about the management of SB and its many comorbid conditions in affected individuals, there are few systematic, longitudinal studies on population-based cohorts of children or adults. The natural history of SB across the life course of persons with this condition is not well documented. Earlier identification of comorbidities and secondary conditions could allow for earlier intervention that might enhance the developmental trajectory for

Abstract:

Many patients with Spina Bifida suffer from hydrocephalus as a complication of their developmental disability and surgeons commonly treat this condition with ventriculoperitoneal shunts. Surgeons have speculated for years that these shunts may cause some type of visual disturbance because of their close proximity to the visual pathways in the brain. Little research has been done, however, to support or discourage this commonly held belief. Questions and data from the Arkansas Spina Bifida Research Project were used to examine whether ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunts and VP shunt revisions incr

Abstract:

Neural tube defects are a set of developmental malformations which can be highly debilitating, with limited treatment available. Mouse mutants exhibiting neural tube defects are studied to identify processes promoting proper neural tube closure, and potential points of intervention for future therapies. This thesis characterises the mouse mutant hitchhiker (hhkr), a hypomorphic allele of Tulp3 which presents with neural tube defects and polydactyly. The spina bifida and exencephaly observed in hhkr mutants are demonstrated to be consequences of failure of neural tube closure, and excessive pro

Abstract:

This thesis explores the quality of life of the first generation of people with spina bifida to reach adulthood. The inquiry was conducted from the social/political approach to disability. From this perspective, disability is viewed as a matter of equality because the problems associated with having a disability are caused by barriers within the social environment. This human rights-based approach underlies much current Australian legislation and government disability policy. The research question was: do adults with spina bifida in New South Wales have the same quality of life as other ad

In this thesis it was hypothesised that factors other than their medical condition influences health-related outcomes. In fact, the dependency on medical care services to monitor and manage their condition throughout childhood and beyond was identified as a potential determinant of healthrelate
