“…Para a realização da intervenção, foi executado um protocolo com três fases: FI (fase inicial), FIT (fase intermedária) e FF (fase final). Esse protocolo e as suas fases específicas foram construídas a partir de técnicas descritas nos métodos Bad Ragaz (STAN, 2017), Halliwck (SHAMS-ELDEN, 2017) e fisioterapia aquática convencional (KHALAJI et al, 2017).…”

A força muscular respiratória em crianças e adolescentes com Síndrome de Down é comprometida pela hipotonia generalizada que os acometem. Analisar os efeitos da fisioterapia aquática na força muscular respiratória em crianças e adolescentes com síndrome de Down. Estudo de intervenção, quasi-experimental, com amostra constituída de oito crianças e adolescentes diagnosticados com SD e média de idade de 12 anos (± 3,8). Foram realizadas 10 sessões de fisioterapia aquática, com 50 minutos de duração cada, em piscina com água aquecida. A força muscular respiratória foi avaliada a partir da pressão inspiratória máxima (PImáx) e pressão expiratória máxima (PEmáx) com auxílio do manuvacuômetro, sendo obtido seus valores antes do primeiro atendimento e após o último. Analisou-se ainda a saturação periférica de oxigênio e frequência cardíaca. Para comparação das médias antes e depois da intervenção foi utilizado o Teste T pareado. Amostra de indivíduos predominantemente do sexo feminino (75,0%), pardos (75,0%) e residentes em zona urbana (87,5%). A comparação da PImáx e PEmáx antes e após as 10 sessões de fisioterapia aquática evidenciou melhora da força muscular inspiratória e expiratória, sendo tais diferenças estatisticamente significantes (valor de p<0,01). Também foram notadas melhorias na frequência cardíaca e saturação de oxigênio (valor de p<0,05) com a intervenção. Destaca-se neste estudo que a fisioterapia aquática parece ser um recurso terapêutico eficiente para o fortalecimento da musculatura respiratória e melhora dos sinais vitais de crianças e adolescentes de com diagnóstico de Síndrome de Down.

“…6 Iranian researchers Khalaji et al published a comprehensive review of 33 research papers published from 2000 to 2016 on the results of hydrotherapy on patients with CP and concluded that this therapy, when applied in conjunction with other conventional therapies, has positive effects in all areas of the International classification of functioning, disability and health. 7 The Halliwick concept improved motor function in children with CP and autism in swimming and gross motor skills depending on the individual condition of the patient. 8 Meyer et al concluded that for children with cerebral palsy, Halliwick therapy provided significant results in a global reduction in spasticity.…”

Background/Aim: Since 2010, the Halliwick Concept has been applied in the rehabilitation of children with neurological disorders at the Department of Habilitation and Rehabilitation of Children and Youth at the Institute for Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (IPMR) "Dr Miroslav Zotović" in Banja Luka, the Republic of Srpska, Bosna and Herzegovina. Aim of this study was to analyse results of the implementation of the full Halliwick Concept programme over the period from 1 January 2016 to 1 January 2017 and points to the effectiveness of this type of hydrokinesitherapy. Methods: After analysing 40 patients with different diagnoses of neurological disorders: cerebral palsy (CP), arthrogryposis (AG), Down syndrome (DS), and central nervous system (CNS) injury, only patients with CP were represented due to the homogeneity of the diagnosis and were included in analysis (N = 30). Rehabilitation treatment of patients according to the Halliwick concept was performed, over a period of one year, for 60 minutes once a week. Patients were tested by Swimming with Independent Measurement (SWIM) test, Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) and Barthel Index before and after treatment. Results: Considering all patients, before and after the application of the concept of individual Halliwick swimming skills/movement in water, a statistically significant difference was detected by assessing the SWIM test and a highly significant difference was detected by evaluating the Gross motor function measure test of GMFM66, as well as in evaluating the Barthel Index test. Assessment of swimming abilities through the SWIM test showed the least progression was in the ability in Getting out of the water, with the greatest progression in the ability in Breathing control. Conslusion: The Halliwick Concept programme at the Department for the Habilitation and Rehabilitation of Children and Youth, IPMR "Dr Miroslav Zotović" in Banja Luka is effective and the results indicate the need for its application in the rehabilitation of children with CP.

“…erebral palsy is a non-progressive disease and one of the most common movement disorders in children that leads to shortness, deformities, and functional limitations [1,2]. The damage to the child's brain affects the motor system and leads to reduced coordination, poor balance, and abnormal movement pattern.…”

This study aimed at evaluating the correlation between mother-child relationship and the rate of participation of children and adolescents with cerebral palsy in leisure time activities. Methods: This study is a descriptive and correlational research. The statistical population included cerebral palsy children aged 7-17 years with a mother who is at least 25 years old. A sample size of 152 children was selected using systematic random sampling. The children filled the King's assessment of participation and enjoyment questionnaire, whereas the mothers responded to a survey of Roth's mother-child relationship evaluation. We collected the data and analyzed them (Spearman's correlation test, One-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis, and Mann-Whitney) using SPSS 16 software. Results: The results showed that there is a correlation between mother-child relationship and the rate of participation of cerebral palsy children in leisure time activities. There was a significant correlation between acceptance of child and the increasing involvement in leisure activities in case of cerebral palsy children. Over protection, excessive ease, and child rejection in a mother-child relationship was associated with reduction in the participation rate of the cerebral palsy children and adolescents in leisure activities. In case of quadriplegic children, the acceptance of child and participation rate was low compared to hemiplegic and diplegic children. Excessive ease of a mother-child relationship in girls was more than boys, but boys experienced more child rejection of a mother-child relationship than girls. Discussion: Participation rate, frequency (how often), and the enjoyment of participation in leisure time activities were correlated with mother-child relationship. Participation differences were existed among CP groups.
