33. Impact of running slope and cross slope on the difficulty level of outdoor pathways: a comparison of proposed design guidelines and user perceptions

Author

Subjects

Abstract

This pilot study examined proposed accessibility guidelines for running slope and cross slope and the perceived difficulty ratings of individuals with mobility limitations. Participants were 23 men and women, 23 to 67 years, with vision or mobility limitations who walked at their preferred pace before rating the path difficulty (1 to 10 scale). Paths meeting the proposed accessibility guidelines were rated as either easy or moderate for difficulty of use. Slopes exceeding the guidelines may also be acceptable for very short distances or on hard/paved surfaces. Future research should include a large representative population, evaluate surface firmness, and examine different perceptions between ambulatory individuals and wheelchair users. Keywords: trails; disability; running slope; cross slope; level of difficulty

Abstract

Objective We sought to determine the prevalence of, and identify factors associated with, parent questions about physical activity for their child with a chronic cardiac, respiratory, or rheumatologic condition. Methods This cross-sectional study of 56 children (32 [57%] female), 3 to 18 years of age, with chronic cardiac (n=21), respiratory (n=18), or rheumatologic (n=17) conditions involved a parent questionnaire about their child's physical activity participation and measurement of the child's activity with an omni-directional accelerometer for 1 week. Results Parents of 20 (36%) children had at least one question about their child's physical activity participation, and the prevalence of questions did not vary by age (Wald chi square = 0.77, P=0.38), gender (Wald chi square = 0.11, P=0.74), or clinic (Wald chi square = 1.77, P=0.41). Parent questions were associated (P = 0.04) with lower levels of activity for boys (95% confidence interval [CI] for estimated marginal means: With questions: 197, 395; Without questions: 346, 500) and higher levels of activity for girls (95% CI for estimated marginal means: With questions: 268, 448; Without questions: 239, 369). A multivariable logistic regression model found that parents with questions had higher odds of having a child who was less well (odds ratio [OR]=19.9 for unwell, OR=5.6 for generally well with some symptoms versus well and asymptomatic) and had a history of cardiac arrhythmia (OR=7.6). Conclusions Over one-third of parents reported having questions about physical activity for their child with a chronic medical condition, suggesting substantial uncertainty even among children reported as active. Presence of parent uncertainty is associated with parent reports of the child being unwell or a history of cardiac arrhythmia. By asking parents if they have questions about their child's activity, health care professionals may be better able to identify inactive boys and overprotective attitudes toward active girls.

Abstract

Objective: To examine the relationship between physical activity, tic severity and quality of life (QoL) in children and adolescents with persistent tic disorder and Tourette Syndrome. Method: Baseline data was examined from a larger randomized controlled trial (Clinicaltrials.gov NCT02153463). Physical activity was assessed via pedometers with daily step count recorded. Tic severity (assessed via Yale Global Tic Severity Scale or YGTSS) and QoL (assessed via PEDs QL 4.0) were compared between those more physically active (≥12,000 steps/day) and less physically active (<12,000 steps/ day). Results: Thirteen children participated; four had ≥12,000 steps/day and nine had <12,000 steps/day. The active group had a lower total tic severity (p = 0.02), and total YGTSS score (p=0.01). The vocal tic severity score was lower in the active group (p=0.02). Motor tic severity was not different amongst the two groups. For Peds QL scores, the active group performed better in physical functioning (p=0.01), social functioning (p=0.03), school functioning (p=0.02), psychosocial functioning (p=0.03) and total PEDs QL score (p=0.01). Conclusions: Higher physical activity levels are associated with lower vocal tic severity and improved aspects of quality of life. Further research is needed to determine the utility of physical activity as therapy for tics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
