Using of new control methods of efficiency of hippotherapy for children with singularities of psychophysical development

The number of disabled people is increasing, and the problem of their rehabilitation and social adaptation is important. In the Republic of Belarus, hippotherapy began to be applied about ten years ago. Within this time, about 200 children sick with cerebral spastic infantile paralysis (severity levels I–III), epilepsy, autism and other diseases underwent rehabilitation. About 70 of them started moving independently; the disability degree of 25 children was lowered or removed. The study on using the method of X-ray fluorescent analysis (RFA) during hippotherapy was the first of its kind in the Republic of Belarus. The aim of the research was the detection of efficiency of impact of hippotherapy on children with psychophysical peculiarities with use of modern control methods. The need for correction of the following elements – calcium, potassium, ferrum, cuprum, zinc, selenium, iodine – in children’s ration at the time of hippotherapy sessions was shown. The need for increasing the frequency of sessions of hippotherapy from once a week to three times a week was established.

POLIO VACCINATION

Background: Polio is a viral disease causing infantile paralysis in the community.This study cultural and traditional barriers to Polio Vaccination. Pakistan in order to explore thecultural and traditional barriers in vaccination against polio. Setting: Tehsil Kwazakhela, Swat,KPK. Methods: A total of 200 respondents were selected from 364 household’s population. Aconceptual framework based on cultural barriers to polio vaccination (dependent variable) andimpediments to polio vaccination (dependent variable) was worked out and uni-variate analysisfor percentage and Chi square test statistics was carried out for association between variables.Results: At uni-variate level majority of the respondent’s i.e. 98% argued that misconceptionis a great issue in the area and 98.5% respondents treat the new born through traditional way.Furthermore, 79.5% masses were in favor of clergy’s fatwah and 95% were agreed that poliovaccine caused immodesty, 81.5% were facing hurdles due to religious background, and 68 %responded that polio vaccination affected from terrorism, 92% agreed that polio vaccination isagainst the prevalent culture. At bivariate level myth, clergies fatwah, polio vaccine is an Americanploy and common superstition spread by radicals were found significant with impediments topolio vaccination. Conclusion: A well patronized campaign over media through proper displayof victims from polio with explicit display of agonies from the victims is essential. Support fromclergies and other regional religious institutions will help in the success of campaign to fightagainst Polio.

REHABILITASI MEDIK PADA POLIOMIELITIS

Poliomyelitis (polio, infantile paralysis) is caused by a type of virus that has three serotypes: PV1, PV2, and PV3. Spreading of polio viruses from person-to-person is by faecal-oral route. Typical manifestations of poliomyelitis occur when the viruses spread, infect, and replicate in the cells of the central nervous system. The characteristic and most severe form of clinical manifestation of polio infection is paralytic polio that usually presents as asymmetrical permanent paralysis of the leg. The diagnosis of polimyelitis is confirmed based on anamnesis, physical examination, and additional examination. Medical rehabilitation programs are applied during acute, sub acute, recovery, and chronic phases.Keywords: poliomyelitis, virus, paralysis, diagnosis, medical rehabilitationAbstrak: Poliomielitis (polio, paralisis infantil) disebabkan oleh sejenis virus yang terdiri dari 3 serotipe, yaitu: PV1, PV2, dan PV3. Cara penularan penyakit ini dari manusia ke manusia melalui jalur fekal-oral. Manifestasi poliomielitis disebabkan karena penyebaran virus yang menginfeksi dan bereplikasi di dalam sel-sel sistem saraf pusat. Karakteristik dan bentuk manifestasi klinik yang paling berat dari infeksi polio ialah polio paralitik yang biasanya menyebabkan paralisis permanen asimetris pada tungkai. Diagnosis poliomielitis ditegakkan melalui anamnesis, pemeriksaan fisik, dan pemeriksaan penunjang. Program rehabilitasi medik diterapkan pada fase akut, fase sub akut, fase penyembuhan, dan fase kronis poliomielitis.Kata kunci: poliomielitis, virus, paralisis, diagnosis, rehabilitasi medik

Clinical difficulties of diagnostics of a syndrome of Prader–Willi

Prader–Willi’s syndrome is a genetic anomaly which often masks under cerebral spastic infantile paralysis and myopathy diagnoses. Though at careful collecting the anamnesis, attentive survey of the patient and competent genetic inspection the diagnosis usually doesn’t raise doubts.
