Children With Visual Impairments

The article contains the results of a study on the study of medical records of children enrolled in a “Boarding School for children with visual impairments” for the subsequent implementation of a pedagogical experiment. The study revealed indicators of ophthalmic and concomitant diseases, secondary abnormalities acquired due to the presence of the main disease. The results obtained allow us to organize a pedagogical experiment with the development of innovative methods aimed at the effectiveness of the impact on the motor sphere of students.

The article is devoted to the problem of using innovative methods of developing and corrective - directed education and children with disabilities. The study substantiates the didactic potential of this pedagogical technology, the advantages of its use with children with disabilities. The article discusses foreign and domestic development of computer tools used by speech therapists in the process of development and correction of speech, the formation of pronunciation. For children with visual impairments, computer products for the diagnosis and correction of vision are widely represented on the market. In educational institutions, when training children with visual impairments (amblyopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, myopia, strabismus, etc.), medical recovery software is widely used. Programmers are actively developing new software products and defectologists and educators use in their work, aimed at general development and preparation for school, as well as modern multimedia and interactive technologies.

Children With Visual Impairments

Of 52 children who attended a sports camp for children with visual impairments, 15 demonstrated stereotypic rocking currently or in the past. Three factors were associated with rocking: etiology of visual impairment, visual status, and early medical history. Children who were the most likely to exhibit rocking were those with retinopathy of prematurity who underwent lengthy hospital stays and multiple surgeries early in their lives and who were totally blind from birth.

Wars are known to have negative effects on the social and physical environments of individuals, as well as limit their access to the available health care services. This paper explores the personal experiences of my family members, who were exposed to war, as well as includes information that has been reviewed form many academic sources. The data aided in providing recommendations and developing strategies, on both local and international levels, to improve the health status of the populations exposed to war.

Objective Persistent post-COVID symptoms are estimated to occur in up to 10% of patients who have had COVID-19. These lingering symptoms may persist for weeks to months after resolution of the acute illness. This study aimed to add insight into our understanding of certain post-acute conditions and clinical findings. The primary purpose was to determine the persistent post COVID impairments prevalence and characteristics by collecting post COVID illness data utilizing Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®). The resulting measures were used to assess surveyed patients physical, mental, and social health status. Methods A cross-sectional study and 6-months Mayo Clinic COVID recovered registry data were used to evaluate continuing symptoms severity among the 817 positive tested patients surveyed between March and September 2020. The resulting PROMIS® data set was used to analyze patients post 30 days health status. The e-mailed questionnaires focused on fatigue, sleep, ability to participate in social roles, physical function, and pain. Results The large sample size (n = 817) represented post hospitalized and other managed outpatients. Persistent post COVID impairments prevalence and characteristics were determined to be demographically young (44 years), white (87%), and female (61%). Dysfunction as measured by the PROMIS® scales in patients recovered from acute COVID-19 was reported as significant in the following domains: ability to participate in social roles (43.2%), pain (17.8%), and fatigue (16.2%). Conclusion Patient response on the PROMIS® scales was similar to that seen in multiple other studies which used patient reported symptoms. As a result of this experience, we recommend utilizing standardized scales such as the PROMIS® to obtain comparable data across the patients’ clinical course and define the disease trajectory. This would further allow for effective comparison of data across studies to better define the disease process, risk factors, and assess the impact of future treatments.
