Comparative analysis of the state of health and the effectiveness of the recovery of schoolchildren in summer health organizations

Abstract

An important stage in the recovery of children and adolescents should be considered a summer health campaign. In order to make a comparative assessment of the physical development, state of health, and the effectiveness of the rehabilitation of schoolchildren in summer health organizations, a survey of 355 children (189 girls and 166 boys) was conducted. It is established that the most children are those with normal physical development. An analysis of deviations in physical development showed that there are no significant differences in the proportion of children with underweight and overweight. It was found that for most schoolchildren the level of physical development is average, while girls with this level were significantly more than boys, and among boys there were more children with a low level. It was noted that about half of the children have a second group of health, and the proportion of children with the first and third groups was approximately the same. Analysis of the effectiveness of recovery indicates that by the end of the shift, most children have significantly improved basic indicators of physical development. Thus, an increase in body length and muscle strength of the hands by the end of the shift was observed in half of the children, the lung capacity increased in more than 60 % of children. Positive dynamics of body weight was noted in 45 % of children. In general a positive healing effect was noted in 70.2 % of children.
