          ABSTRACT

          Objective:

          The participation in sports and recreational activities promotes inclusion and the quality of life (QOL) for people with some type of disability. This study aims to evaluate and describe the effect of adapted sports (AS) on the QOL and biopsychosocial profile of children/adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP).

          Methods:

          Forty-seven children/adolescents with CP were evaluated and referred to AS (soccer and swimming). The QOL was evaluated by the Pediatric Outcome Data Collection Instrument (PODCI) and the biopsychosocial profile by the Behavior Checklist for Children/Adolescents (CBCL). These instruments considered the influence of gender, age, race, social income, education and topography of spasticity.

          Results:

          Seventeen children/adolescents who practiced AS were re-evaluated after one year. There was significant improvement in the dimensions of transfers and mobility (p=0.009), upper extremity function (p=0.021) and global function (p=0.004) of IARRP. There was significant improvement considering the attention disorder syndrome (p=0.026), and the attention deficit hyperactivity disorders (p=0.008) in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)-oriented analysis (CBCL). Children/adolescents with diplegia obtained greater benefit than those with hemiplegia in relation to the comfort and pain (p=0.02) and global dimension (p=0.027) (PODCI). The boys had higher scores in total competence (p=0.048); the extremely poor group obtained higher levels in the breaking rules syndrome (p=0.008).

          Conclusions:

          The AS had a positive effect on the QOL and biopsychosocial profile of children/adolescents with CP in this sample, especially considering the global and upper extremity function, capacity for transfers and mobility, and benefits in the problems related to difficulties in attention.

          RESUMO:

          Objetivo:

          A participação em atividades esportivas e recreativas promove a inclusão e a qualidade de vida (QV) de crianças/adolescentes com deficiência. Este estudo visa avaliar e descrever o efeito do esporte adaptado (EA) na QV e o perfil biopsicossocial de crianças/adolescentes com paralisia cerebral (PC).

          Métodos:

          Foram avaliados e encaminhados ao EA (futebol e natação) 47 crianças e adolescentes com PC. A QV foi avaliada pelo Instrumento para Avaliação de Resultados de Reabilitação em Pediatria (IARPP) e o perfil biopsicossocial pela Lista de Verificação Comportamental para Crianças/Adolescentes (CBCL). Foram verificadas as influências de sexo, idade, raça, renda, escolaridade e topografia da espasticidade.

          Resultados:

          Dezessete crianças/adolescentes praticaram o EA e foram reavaliados após um ano. Foi observada melhora significativa nas dimensões transferências e mobilidade ( p=0,009), função e extremidade superior ( p=0,021) e função global ( p=0,004) do IARRP. Houve melhora significativa considerando as síndromes problemas de atenção ( p=0,026) e problemas de déficit de atenção e hiperatividade ( p=0,008) na análise do Manual Diagnóstico e Estatístico de Transtornos Mentais (DSM) Orientado (CBCL). Crianças com diplegia obtiveram mais benefício que aquelas com hemiplegia em relação às dimensões dor e conforto ( p=0,02) e dimensão global ( p=0,027) (IARPP). Os meninos apresentaram maiores escores em total de competência ( p=0,048); o grupo extremamente pobre obteve maiores índices na síndrome quebrar regras ( p=0,008).

          Conclusão:

          O EA apresentou efeito positivo na QV e no perfil biopsicossocial das crianças e dos adolescentes com PC dessa amostra, especialmente considerando: função global e de extremidades superiores, capacidade para transferências e mobilidade, e benefícios nos problemas relacionados às dificuldades na atenção.

          Development and reliability of a system to classify gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy.

          To address the need for a standardized system to classify the gross motor function of children with cerebral palsy, the authors developed a five-level classification system analogous to the staging and grading systems used in medicine. Nominal group process and Delphi survey consensus methods were used to examine content validity and revise the classification system until consensus among 48 experts (physical therapists, occupational therapists, and developmental pediatricians with expertise in cerebral palsy) was achieved. Interrater reliability (kappa) was 0.55 for children less than 2 years of age and 0.75 for children 2 to 12 years of age. The classification system has application for clinical practice, research, teaching, and administration.

            Gender differences in leisure-time physical activity

            Summary. Objectives: To explore the association between gender and leisure-time physical activity in a population-based sample of adults living in Brazil. To study a variety of variables possibly associated with physical activity levels. Methods: A multistage sampling of households was undertaken in Pelotas, a medium-sized Southern Brazilian city. Leisure-time physical activity was measured using the long version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Data on potential predictors of leisure-time physical activity behavior were collected using a standardized questionnaire. 1 344 men and 1 756 women were interviewed. Several definitions of moderate and vigorous-intensity physical activity were used. Results: Regardless of the guideline used, males were more active than women. Socioeconomic level was positively associated with leisure-time physical activity in both genders. A positive dose-response between age and inactivity was found in men, but not among women. Conclusions: Because men and women have different levels of physical activity, and the variables associated with activity levels are not consistent across the genders, interventions promoting physical activity should take these differences into account.

              Promoting the participation of children with disabilities in sports, recreation, and physical activities.

              The benefits of physical activity are universal for all children, including those with disabilities. The participation of children with disabilities in sports and recreational activities promotes inclusion, minimizes deconditioning, optimizes physical functioning, and enhances overall well-being. Despite these benefits, children with disabilities are more restricted in their participation, have lower levels of fitness, and have higher levels of obesity than their peers without disabilities. Pediatricians and parents may overestimate the risks or overlook the benefits of physical activity in children with disabilities. Well-informed decisions regarding each child's participation must consider overall health status, individual activity preferences, safety precautions, and availability of appropriate programs and equipment. Health supervision visits afford pediatricians, children with disabilities, and parents opportunities to collaboratively generate goal-directed activity "prescriptions." Child, family, financial, and societal barriers to participation need to be directly identified and addressed in the context of local, state, and federal laws. The goal is inclusion for all children with disabilities in appropriate activities. This clinical report discusses the importance of physical activity, recreation, and sports participation for children with disabilities and offers practical suggestions to pediatric health care professionals for the promotion of participation.
