The standards as to when children should acquire particular gross and fine motor skills were presented in that study. Proper motor development of children may affect all aspects of their lives. Early detection and diagnosis of abnormalities make it possible to cope with developmental disorders quickly. The functioning of children changes in the first year of their lives. Children gain indispensable experience from the surrounding world and learn to react to external stimuli. They also develop their patterns of behavior and improve perception. This work focuses on selected aspects of motor development that play a significant role in the process of physiotherapy aimed at infants in their first trimester.

The occurrence of problems linked to cognitive-linguistic and auditory processing may lead to serious phonological disorders such as an incorrect use of sounds by a child. Early diagnosis of auditory processing disorders makes it possible to start the therapy quickly and enhances the child’s chances of proper development. In the cerebral cortex, there is a physiological connection between auditory processing and speech production. Auditory processing disorders lead to improper development of speech and language communication. Auditory processing disorders in older children are assessed with the use of behavioural tests such as a binaural integration test, Staggered Spondaic Word (SSW) test, Dichotic Digit Test and Speech-in-noise (SIN) test. The drawbacks of these tests are that they are applied when speech production disorders already occur. They cannot be used in newborns due to the fact that they are incapable of cooperating. The NBAS scale used in physiotherapeutic diagnosis may be employed to assess processing disorders in the youngest children. This procedure is very simple and results provide early information regarding the child’s auditory integration. Foreign research points to a significant correlation between auditory processing disorders and phonological disorders mainly in terms of distinguishing phonemes.

Introduction The aim of the study was to assess load surface with regard to muscle tone distribution of premature infants compared to full-term infants. Material and methods Twenty-four infants aged 3-6 months (adjusted age) were examined, including 12 premature infants (born before 37 weeks) and 12 full-term infants. The study was carried out at the Children's Memorial Health Institute in Warsaw in the period from January to June 2016. The study involved interviews with the infants' parents and examinations of infants in a supine and prone position performed on PodoBaby digital podoscope. Support surface, i.e. the loading on the left and right side of the body and the length of trunk sides were analysed. Statistical analysis was performed with the use of Statistica v.12 software and Student's t-test. Results No significant differences between premature infants and full-term infants regarding the loading on the right side measured in a supine position were revealed (analogous lack of differences was noted on the left side and in a prone position). In a prone position, the correlation between support surface and the length of trunk sides was noted, i.e. the loaded side of the trunk was lengthened, while the unloaded side was shortened. Conclusions Considerable asymmetry of the loads of trunk sides was noted in premature infants, while in the case of full-term infants, the values of loads were close to symmetry. An examination with the use of PodoBaby podoscope may be applied in early diagnostics in pediatric rehabilitation.

Introduction: Society on Scoliosis Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Treatment (SOSORT) is an international organization which determines standards for scoliosis treatment and research. Physiotherapy is a necessary part of treatment standards. SOSORT indicates which conditions must be fulfilled by physiotherapy methods in order to be used for scoliosis treatment. One of the concepts used worldwide in the process of scoliosis conservative treatment is Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF). International PNF Association (IPNFA) establishes the PNF teaching standards, application and related research. Aim: The goal of this work is to demonstrate conformity PNF method to SOSORT guidelines for conservative treatment of people with scoliosis. Material and methods: SOSORT recommendations set in 2005-2012 were used to analyze knowledge and information, according to the newest IPNFA agreements. Results: Conformity PNF method to SOSORT guidelines can be observed in: personal treatment planning; focus on treatment goals (stopping the progression of curvature, breathing function improvement, reduction in pain, aesthetic issues), possibility of special effects on the spine deformity (autocorrection of the spine and pelvis in three planes, stabilization of the posture, activities of the daily living and general health education). The positive influence of the selected PNF patterns on postural parameters of individuals with scoliosis was observed in the initial studies. Conclusions: Described in details structure of PNF method can be used in the planning of research. It is necessary to conduct research to demonstrate the effectiveness of PNF method in the treatment of people with scoliosis.

Introduction The Trunk-Pelvis-Hip Angle (TPHA) test is used for assessing the mobility of lumbo-pelvic-hip complex. The aim of the research was to assess the intraobserver reliability of the TPHA test in girls with and without idiopathic scoliosis and to compare the test values obtained by the girls in both groups. Material and methods The research included girls without scoliosis and girls with double idiopathic scoliosis aged 8-16. The trunk-pelvis-hip angle was measured three times on each body side within one session. Statistical analysis was performed with the use of ANOVA intraclass correlation coefficient for dependent groups, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test as well as non-parametric Wilcoxon signed-rank test for dependent groups and Mann-Whitney U test for independent groups. Results The research included 49 healthy girls (aged 11.8 ± SD 2.5 years) and 49 girls with double idiopathic scoliosis (aged 12.7 ± SD 2.6 years; Cobb angle Th 27.7º ± SD 13.4º and L Cobb 25.8º ± SD 10.5º). The intraobserver reliability for the TPHA measurements was very high (ICC>0.85). In both groups the left-side TPHA value was significantly higher than the right-side value (p=0.001). The TPHA range of motion on the right side of the body was more limited in the scoliotic girls than in the healthy ones (p=0.001). Conclusions The TPHA test is a reliable means of assessing mobility in the lumbo-pelvic-hip complex in girls by one observer.The asymmetry of movements in the lumbo-pelvic-hip complex in healthy girls needs to be observed since it may constitute one of the factors predisposing to scoliosis which limits spine rotation range of motion. The TPHA test needs further research.

Introduction Improper hip joint development may lead to numerous unfavourable changes in the musculoskeletal system. The aim of this research was to determine how often adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis and their healthy counterparts experienced anomalies of the hip in their infancy period and to examine the correlation between the occurrence of hip anomalies and idiopathic scoliosis. Material and methods The research was conducted in medical centres as well as in schools. The parents of adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis and parents of healthy adolescents completed a questionnaire on the basis of their child’s development history included in the medical records book and other medical documentation. Results 533 questionnaires were taken into consideration, included 145 questionnaires completed by parents of adolescents with scoliosis (121 girls – 13.8 years, SD 1.9; 24 boys – 12.9 years, SD 2.5) and 388 questionnaires from the group of adolescents without scoliosis (194 girls – 13.5 years, SD 2.0; 194 boys – 13.4 years, SD 2.1). No significant differences were noted in the incidence of hip anomalies between the groups of girls and boys with and without scoliosis, no correlations between anomalies of the hip and scoliosis were found (girls χ2=0.840; Cramer V=0.052; p=0.36; boys χ2=1.205; Cramer V=0.074; p=0.27). Conclusions Hip anomalies such as hip dysplasia, movement asymmetry or range of motion limitations diagnosed in the infancy period did not correlate with idiopathic scoliosis. Further research aimed at a separate analysis of the influence of hip dysplasia on the occurrence of idiopathic scoliosis should be carried out.
