Fatigue and faulty posture connection among children, diagnosed with dysarthria

Abstract

Abstract. Purpose: To analyze spastic dysarthria form in children population dependency of fatigue and faulty posture relationship. Methods: Research performed with the permission of the bioethics committee (RE-BK-063). The Dutch Fatigue Scale (DUFS). Posture in standing was assessed by Hoeger and Kendall. Research subjects n40. n20 children diagnosed with spastic dysarthria and n20 of children without dysarthria. Their age was 10±2.1years. Boys were n20 and girls -n20.Results were statistically significant at p<0.05. Microsoft Office 2013, Excel package were used to count a research results. Results: For children with dysarthria fatigue level is more significant that for children without dysarthria; results were statistically significant, p<0.05. Posture disorder for children with dysarthria was statistically significant higher than among children without dysarthria, p<0.05. Conclusions: For children with dysarthria fatigue level is higher than for healthy children, thus for the girls fatigue level is higher than for the boys. Spastic form dysarthria has an impact to a child posture, by creating a direct dependency between posture deformation and skeletal muscle system disease, which decreases muscle power and increasing fatigue for a child. To correct faulty posture thus to decrease fatigue the tight collaboration needed between rehabilitation team members.

“…This imposes heavy demands on the medical condition and physical fitness of students. The latter is the major contributor to ensuring the comprehensive and harmonious development of the students (Andrejeva Julija et al, 2015, Andrieieva, O. et al, 2017, Bothmer, M. et al 2005. Most experts (Andrieieva O. et al, 2018, Cavalheri V. et al, 2010, Kashuba, V.A., et al, 2014, Kozina, Z. et al, 2017, Nosova, N. L. et al 2015, Sergiy Drachuk et al, 2018, Zukowska H. et al, 2014 associate this with unfavorable social and economic living conditions and poor ecology, significant decrease in students' interest in physical education and sports, as well as degradation of the physical education system at higher educational institutions.…”

“…These factors contribute to improving health, increasing material income, respecting basic human freedoms, as well as increasing the education level. However, the influence of physical activity on the quality of life of the educational process participants was dealt with only by individual studies (Andrejeva Julija et al, 2015, Andrieieva, O. et al, 2017, Iedynak, G. et al, 2017.…”
