“…Diminished muscle strength was considered to be impaired if the individual presented with a range of movement limited by any different resistance force of gravity (Campbell, 2013; Seidel et al, 2011). Diminished flexibility of joints was measured using a Sanny ® pendulum fleximeter, and we evaluated the maximum physiological range of each joint related to physical exercises (Leighton, 1987).…”

This study clinically validated the nursing diagnosis of "sedentary lifestyle" (SL) among 564 Brazilian adolescents. Measures of diagnostic accuracy were calculated for defining characteristics, and Mantel-Haenszel analysis was used to identify related factors. The measures of diagnostic accuracy showed that the following defining characteristics were statistically significant: "average daily physical activity less than recommended for gender and age," "preference for activity low in physical activity," "nonengagement in leisure time physical activities," and "diminished respiratory capacity." An SL showed statistically significant associations with the following related factors: insufficient motivation for physical activity; insufficient interest in physical activity; insufficient resources for physical activity; insufficient social support for physical activity; attitudes, beliefs, and health habits that hinder physical activity; and insufficient confidence for practicing physical exercises. The study highlighted the four defining characteristics and six related factors for making decisions related to SL among adolescents.

“…To prevent the occurrence of bias, a standard operating procedure was developed from semiology textbooks. 15,16 In addition, operational definitions were developed for identifying each defining characteristic and related factor. A pre-test with 10 patients using the pre-established selection criteria was conducted, and it was determined that changes in the form were considered unnecessary.…”

“…The assessments to diagnose NI included physical examination [28] including measurement of height and weight to assess motor impairment and a vision test (Landolt Chart) [29]. Hearing test by three screening tests (Behavioral Observation Audiometry (BOA): bell-tone, paper crash test, small voice) was also performed.…”

Prevalence and risk factors of neurological impairment among children aged 6–9 years: from population based cross sectional study in western Kenya

et al. 2012

BackgroundThe burden of disability is more severe among children in low income countries. Moreover, the number of children with disabilities (CWDs) in sub-Saharan Africa is predicted to increase with reduction in child mortality. Although the issue on CWDs is important in sub-Saharan Africa, there are few researches on risk factors of disabilities. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the risk factors of neurological impairment (NI) among children in western Kenya.MethodsThe present study was conducted in Mbita district (which has high HIV infectious prevalence), Kenya from April 2009 to December 2010. The study consisted of two phases. In phase 1, the Ten Question Questionnaire (TQQ) was administered to all 6362 caregivers of children aged 6–9 years. In phase two, all 413 children with TQQ positive and a similar number of controls (n=420) which were randomly selected from children with TQQ negative were examined for physical and cognitive status. In addition, a structured questionnaire was also conducted to their caregivers.ResultsThe prevalence was estimated to be 29/1000. Among the types of impairments, cognitive impairment was the most common (24/1000), followed by physical impairment (5/1000). In multivariate analysis, having more than five children [adjusted odds ratio (AOR): 2.85; 95%IC: 1.25 – 6.49; p=0.013], maternal age older than 35 years old [AOR: 2.31; 95%IC: 1.05 – 5.07; p=0.036] were significant factors associated with NI. In addition, monthly income under 3000 ksh [AOR: 2.79; 95%IC: 1.28 – 6.08; p=0.010] and no maternal tetanus shot during antenatal care [AOR: 5.17; 95%IC: 1.56 – 17.14; p=0.007] were also significantly related with having moderate/severe neurological impairment.ConclusionIt was indicated that increasing coverage of antenatal care including maternal tetanus shot and education of how to take care of neonatal children to prevent neurological impairment are important.
