Abstract

Aim: Investigation of the perspectives of paediatric health care professionals (PHCPs) in Switzerland regarding factors that influence participation in physical activity programs for children and adolescents with disabilities or chronic conditions (CADCCs). Evaluation of self-reported exercise counselling behavior of those professionals.

Method: A cross-sectional survey was used to collect the opinions of 171 PHCPs working with CADCCs using a structured questionnaire. The information obtained was evaluated by performing a combined quantitative and qualitative statistical analysis.

Results: PHCPs in Switzerland think that CADCC do not get enough physical activity and see the underlying reasons in lacking information/knowledge and organizational factors. We found that the level of knowledge about disability sports opportunities among PHCPs has a positive influence on their exercise counselling behaviour.

Conclusions: We propose three approaches to increase the level of physical activity in CADCC: Establishing personalized exercise counseling, intensifying information about disability sports programmes towards PHCPs, and improving inclusion and integration in PE lessons or regular sports clubs.

瑞士儿科保健专业人员对影响残疾儿童体育活动参与的因素的看法。

目的:调查瑞士儿科卫生保健专业人员(phcp)对影响残疾或慢性病儿童和青少年参与体育活动计划的因素的看法。专业人员自我报告的运动咨询行为评估。方法:采用横断面调查方法，采用结构化问卷收集171名与cadcc合作的phcp的意见。获得的信息通过进行定量和定性相结合的统计分析进行评估。结果:瑞士phcp认为CADCC缺乏足够的身体活动，并认为其根本原因是缺乏信息/知识和组织因素。我们发现初级保健医生对残疾体育机会的了解程度对他们的运动咨询行为有积极的影响。结论:我们提出了三种方法来提高CADCC的体育活动水平:建立个性化的运动咨询，加强针对phcp的残疾体育项目的信息，以及提高体育课或常规体育俱乐部的包容性和整合性。

期刊介绍： Developmental Neurorehabilitation aims to enhance recovery, rehabilitation and education of people with brain injury, neurological disorders, and other developmental, physical and intellectual disabilities. Although there is an emphasis on childhood, developmental disability can be considered from a lifespan perspective. This perspective acknowledges that development occurs throughout a person’s life and thus a range of impairments or diseases can cause a disability that can affect development at any stage of life.
