“…The research performed by other scientists, showed, that stressful posture can decrease ability to tolerate physical work load and it can lead to a fatigue level increase, which in turn determines every day activities and tasks performance diminution. Specific tasks, during which stressful posture can appear, should be noticed and directed by physiotherapists to the specific correction and stress decrease methods, for everyday activities and performance improvement (Seidel D., 2011). For children without dysarthria fatigue level was statistically insignificantly higher among the boys then for the girls p>0,05, children have less muscle mass then adult, thus are able to generate less absolute power during high intensity work load performance.…”

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.

“…Figure 1 shows the measurement system on one participant. We employed the ISO standard because it has been used with the CUELA system in earlier research (Freitag et al, 2007; Seidel et al, 2011). In addition, CUELA has been demonstrated to have good validity and reliability in field studies (Ellegast, 1998).…”

The aim of our study was to analyze home care workers’ movement patterns and back postures, relating them to risks while helping an ambulatory care recipient to and from the toilet in a homelike environment. We found that severe risks of unpredictable movements with exposed postures could explain many injuries. Because of high-risk injuries, we suggest decreasing the time when the care recipient stands and the home care worker helps with clothing and personal hygiene. We also suggest the development of support in front of the recipient to prevent her or him from falling forward.
