Health-Promoting Physical Activity of Children Who Use Assistive Mobility Devices / Tracy JIRIKOWIC in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 70/5 (septembre-octobre 2016)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 70/5 (septembre-octobre 2016) Titre : Health-Promoting Physical Activity of Children Who Use Assistive Mobility Devices : A Scoping Review Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Tracy JIRIKOWIC ; Cheryl I. KERFELD Année de publication : 2016 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Ergothérapie  Promotion santé  Enfant  Handicap physique  Obésité  Activité physique Résumé : Children with physical disabilities who use assistive mobility devices (AMDs) are at risk for obesity and other secondary health conditions. Habitual physical activity is one lifestyle factor that may prevent obesity and contribute to overall health, and an active lifestyle in childhood improves prospects for lifelong healthy behaviors. Child, family, and environmental facilitators and barriers influence health-promoting physical activity (HPPA) for children without disabilities, but comparable models and levels of understanding for children who use AMDs are lacking. In this scoping review, we identified a similar set of child, family, and environmental facilitators and barriers relevant to HPPA participation among children who use AMDs. Noted gaps in the literature included limited reporting of AMD use, inconsistent HPPA definitions, and inadequate measurement tools for children who are nonambulatory. The identified child, family, and environmental factors provide a framework for occupational therapy practitioners and interprofessional teams to develop HPPA opportunities and interventions for an underserved population.
