Abstract Background : Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a group of permanent disorders of movement and posture, attributed to non-progressive disturbance that occurred in the developing fetal or infant brain. The condition results in long term disability in carrying out activities of daily living (ADL). Thus, it most times required active participation of the caregivers of the children affected in their rehabilitation. Objective: The aim of the study was to explore the facilitators and barriers of active participation of caregivers in the rehabilitation of these children. Materials and Methods: The study design used was qualitative indepth interview. The participants consisted of caregivers of children with CP attending Hasiya Bayero Paediatric Specialists Hospital, Kano. The caregivers were sampled and interviewed by one of the researchers until theoretical saturation was attained. A note taker wrote down and recorded responses of the participants using a tape recorder. The data generated from the interview was then transcribed, coded and analyzed using matrix analysis using constant comparative analysis. Results: Forty caregivers with mean age, 27.17±4.46 years participated in the study. The results of the study showed that, the factors that facilitate active participation of caregivers of children with CP in the rehabilitation of their children are improvement in the child’s condition, family support, improvement in the conditions of other children with CP, encouragement from the therapist managing the child, empathy, and cooperation of the child during home programs. The barriers are number of children the caregiver has, caregiver’s occupation and financial resources. Conclusion: Therapists need to help reinforce these facilitators, and devise strategies to help caregivers overcome barriers during rehabilitation of children with CP. For example, since lack of finance is one of the barriers to the caregivers’ active participation in the rehabilitation of their children, there should be a policy on CP rehabilitation that will make rehabilitation services accessible to all children with CP. Similarly, since family support is a facilitator, sharing caregiving rehabilitation tasks among member of the family could help facilitate caregiver activation participation in the rehabilitation of their children with CP.

Abstract Background Cerebral Palsy (CP) refers to the permanent disorders involving postural and movement control as a result of injury to the developing brain. As a result of impairment in postural and movement control, children with CP usually have problems in carrying out activities of daily living (ADL). This makes them dependent on help from their caregivers. Thus, for effective rehabilitation of children with CP, active participation of their caregivers is important. This study seeks to explore the facilitators and barriers of active participation of caregivers in the rehabilitation of children with CP in Kano, Nigeria. Methods The study design used was qualitative in-depth interview. The participants were caregivers of children with CP at Hasiya Bayero Paediatric Specialists Hospital, Kano. The caregivers were interviewed face-to-face, and their responses were audio-recorded with a tape recorder, supplemented with note taking. The data generated was analyzed using constant comparative analysis. Results Forty young caregivers (mean age, 27.17 ± 4.46 years) participated in the study. They expressed encouragement from the therapist managing the child, family support, empathy, improvement in the conditions of other children with CP, cooperation of the child during home programs family support and improvement in the child’s condition as factors that facilitate their active participation in the rehabilitation of the children. However, they mentioned occupation, financial resources and the number of children the caregiver has are the barriers to their active participation in the rehabilitation of the children. Conclusions Both the facilitators and barriers of active participation of caregivers in the rehabilitation of children with CP need to be recognized in order to help caregivers reinforce or overcome them respectively. In addition, economically sustainable and accessible rehabilitation services are needed for all children with CP. Similarly, sharing caregiving rehabilitation tasks amongst family members could facilitate caregiver active participation.

The problem of infantile cerebral palsy one of the urgent problems of child neuropathology and orthopedics. 60% of children with disabilities have associated disturbances of abilities to move, to make precise movements, i.e., to control their own actions. Movement disorders cause abnormal muscle synergies, resulting in relatively quickly formed fixed contractures, which prevent the movement. As a result, these children need for surgical correction and long-term rehabilitative treatment in the postoperative pe-riod. However, natural curative factors become more important. These factors in adequate dosages increase functional reserve capacities of the child´s body systems and contribute to the improvement of adaptive responses. Most physiological and adequate method in the rehabilitation of children with cerebral palsy is a spa-treatment. The authors’ purpose of this study is to develop and scientifically justify a system of restorative treatment of children operated on cerebral palsy, in the conditions of the balneologic resort. In the children´s psycho-neurological department of the Pyatigorsk clinic five randomized groups of children after surgical treatment for cerebral palsy were observed. Detailed clinical psycho-neurological examination, electromyography, electroencephalography, rheoencephalography, rheovasography were performed in all patients. The studies in the immediate and long-term follow allow to recommending the medical technologies for complex therapy of children after surgery for cerebral palsy. Continued improvement in a small number of children with cerebral palsy is the criterion of having to re-resort treatment.

Background: One of the efforts made by the government to reduce the rate of population growth was through the Family Planning program. Many contraceptive methods are used by Fertile Age Couples (FAC), including the Long-Term Contraception Method (MKJP) and the non-Long-Term Contraception Method (non-MKJP). Low interest in fertile-couples for long-term use of contraception cannot be separated from family support to use these contraceptives. There is a need for an understanding of MKJP for FAC. Family support was defined as the attitude, actions, and acceptance of the family of its members. Family members see that those who are supportive are always ready to provide help and assistance. With family support, FAC can easily decide which contraception will be used. Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship of family social support to the interest of FAC in using the long-term contraception method in RW 5, Sidotopo Village. Methods: This research was an observational analytic study using a cross-sectional research design. The sample of this research consists of 48 participants, taken randomly using multistage random sampling. The research instrument was in the form of a questionnaire. Then, the data were analyzed using the Chi-square test. Results: The characteristics of family planning acceptors in RW 5 of the Sidotopo sub-district starting from the dominating age are 21-35 years old with high school as the highest level of education. The income level in the area is middle to the upper level from 2 million to 5 million rupiahs per month. Based on the results of statistical tests, there is a correlation between family instrumental social support with the interest of Fertile Age Couples to use MKJP. Conclusion: Based on the results of the bivariate test using Chi-Square, it was found that between the four support variables, only one of them has a relationship that is instrumental support. The results of this study can be used as a rationale for policymaking in order to increase the number of long-term family planning acceptors.

This study was aimed to identify eating disorder (ED) relapse, childbirth, postnatal depression,and the family support. Of the ED patients during treatment from 1994 to 2004,55 were pregnant and had ED recovery. Of them, 25 (21 Bulimia Nervosa (BN)and 4 Anorexia Nervosa (AN)) agreed to take part in this study. We interviewed them every 2 wk. both during the pregnancy and after childbirth. We also interviewed family members each month. The Eating Attitudes Test-26 (EAT-26) and Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) were helpful for diagnosing the EDs and postnatal depression. As the statistical analysis, We conducted t-test.67%relapsed ED while pregnant and 50%relapsed postnatal. In the non-relapse group, all the subjects had vaginal delivery and their infants were male. 50% of the subjects had postnatal depression. Non-Postnatal depression group had average body- weight infants. With regard to family support, there was no relationship between ED relapse and postnatal depression. We found that the rate of ED relapse and that of suffering from postnatal depression were remarkable in this group, suggesting the necessity for long-term follow-up for the EDs.
