School Health Services

Background: School health is an important branch of community health. School health services is an economical and powerful means of raising community health. In school child is vulnerable to stress, tension and endangerment of group life because all children are not the same and comes from different socioeconomic and cultural background and with different immunity status. Child is quite vulnerable at this growing age and hence become easy victims of many non-communicable diseases such as dental caries, anaemia, visual and hearing defects. The objective of the study was to assess health status of primary school children in rural areas of Lucknow.Methods: The present school-based descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in the rural area of Lucknow from February to July 2015. Purposive sampling technique was adopted to select primary schools from 1st to 5th standard. All students who were present at the time of survey were included in the study. A pre-structured performa for each student was used to record information regarding anthropometric measurements, physical examination/ personal hygiene, clinical findings.Results: A total of 170 children were examined, among these 82 (48.23%) were boys and 88 (51.77%) were girls. Dental caries was the most common infirmity observed in 63 (37.05%) children with 95% CI (33.35- 40.75) and was statistically significant (p<0.05) with boys 29.27% and girls 44.31%. Anaemia were found in 65 (38.23%), boys were 32.92% and girls 43.18%. Ear discharge was seen in 17 (10%) children, boys were 6.10% and girls 13.63%.Conclusions: The common infirmity found were dental caries, anaemia and ear discharge. Effective strategy with good monitoring and evaluation is imperative in ensuring adequate and optimal implementation of school health services in primary schools in rural Lucknow.

The relevance of the study is conditioned by the steady increase in the overall morbidity of student youth. The purpose of the study is to establish the effectiveness of physical education lessons in junior high school students, who belong to a special medical group due to their state of health. The following materials and methods were used during the research: analysis of documentary materials, pedagogical observation, pulsometry. The matter of the structure of diseases of junior schoolchildren who attend classes in a special medical group has been investigated. It is established that the number of students who may belong to a special medical group due to a certain state of health is 53.3% of all students enrolled in such group. Analysis of diagnoses indicates gross violations in the process of their formulation: lack of clear interpretation, designation of conditions that do not fall under the use of a diagnosis, diagnosis of age-incompatible students. An analysis of physical education lessons for primary school children aged 7-10, which are classified by health status to a special medical group. It was determined that the heart rate reached the upper limit of the maximum pulse reserve for children of the special medical group in the minimum number of exercises, while the total duration is on average 2 minutes 40 seconds, which makes it impossible to increase aerobic capacity of students. It was found that healthimproving lessons do not solve the problems associated with increasing the strength of postural muscles, with the development of coordination skills, do not have the value of special motor correction of certain diseases and pathological conditions of primary school children. The identified features of the educational process in a special medical group make it possible to state violations of such didactic principles as the principles of accessibility, activity, systematicity, individualisation. The existing system of physical education of junior schoolchildren, classified by health status to a special medical group, is described by a clear inconsistency of projective, substantive, procedural, and accounting and control settings
