Introduction Sport for people with disabilities has interested scientists for a long time. However, there is a scarcity of research on the subject of amputee football – football adapted to individuals after amputations. The aim of the study was to describe this sport and to review research carried out in this field so far. When looking for investigations on amputee football, the available computer databases (Academic Search Complete, SPORTdiscus, MEDLINE, Health Source, MasterFILE Premier) were searched comprehensively. The following key words were used to identify proper articles: amputee football, football + amputations, crutch football. Also, the following article inclusion criteria were applied: (A) original scientific paper, (B) available full text of paper, (C) paper published in a peer-reviewed journal, (D) paper published in the English language. Eleven articles that met the criteria were selected for the analysis. Description of amputee football The description of amputee football included the history of the sport in the world and in Poland, rules of the game and players’ classification. Amputee football in research The articles selected for the review were divided into three categories: 1) psychological and social aspects, 2) anthropomotorics and nutrition, 3) endurance, physical capacity and speed abilities. Summary The majority of studies carried out so far have focused on general characteristics of amputee football players and the effects of this sport on the functioning of individuals after amputations. Future studies ought to involve injury-related aspects as well as training effectiveness on the basis of physiological parameters.

Miejsce sportu w procesie rehabilitacji osób niepełnosprawnych fizycznie zmieniało się na przestrzeni lat. Początkowo sport służył przede wszystkim usprawnianiu funkcjonalnemu osób ze schorzeniami narządu ruchu. Później rozwinął się sport wyczynowy osób niepełnosprawnych, a w jego obszarze sport paraolimpijski, w ramach którego rywalizują najwybitniejsi na świecie sportowcy niepełnosprawni fizycznie. Sport wyczynowy stanowi obecnie najpełniej ukształtowaną, pod względem formalnym (związki sportowe, kalendarz zawodów, przepisy gry itp.), formę aktywności fizycznej podejmowanej przez osoby niepełnosprawne fizycznie. Rozwój specjalistycznego sprzętu sportowego umożliwił także rozwój aktywności sportowej w formie rekreacyjnej, dzięki czemu coraz więcej osób niepełnosprawnych może aktywnie spędzać czas wolny zarówno w sezonie letnim, jak i zimowym. Współcześnie wszystkie powyższe formy sportu osób niepełnosprawnych rozwijają się w ramach ruchu określanego jako adaptowana aktywność fizyczna, która wyrosła na gruncie wielowiekowej tradycji i doświadczeń związanych z wykorzystywaniem ruchu jako środka wspomagającego i doskonalącego rozwój człowieka. W niniejszym opracowaniu podjęto próbę charakterystyki i usystematyzowania wyżej wspomnianych zagadnień w odniesieniu do krajowych warunków rehabilitacji i sportu osób niepełnosprawnych fizycznie.

The value of sport in the rehabilitation of persons with physical disabilities has been changing over the years. Initially, sport played a role mainly in functional improvement of persons with musculoskeletal disorders. Then, a competitive sport for persons with disabilities has developed, including the Paralympic one in which the most outstanding athletes with physical disabilities in the world can compete with each other. Competitive sport, by formal (sports associations, event calendar, game rules, etc.), is now the most fully formed form of physical activity performed by persons with physical disabilities. The development of specialized sports equipment has also enabled the development of sport in the form of recreation, so that more and more people with disabilities can actively spend their free time, both in summer and winter. Today, all these forms of sport for persons with disabilities develop in the movement known as adapted physical activity, which has grown on the basis of centuries of tradition and experience with the use of movement as a means to support and improve human development. In the paper, an attempt was made to provide characterization and systematization of the above-mentioned issues in relation to national rehabilitation conditions and sport for persons with physical disabilities.

Purpose. Physical activity (PA) is known to have a positive influence on many physical and psychological aspects of human life. Despite the many benefits of an active lifestyle, the majority of adults in Western Europe do not perform regular PA, and this is especially so for adults with a disability, such as the blind and visually impaired. The purpose of this study was to assess the type and intensity of physical activity and subjective quality of life (life satisfaction) of blind and visually impaired individuals living in Poland and to analyze for potential differences in terms of their physical activity levels. Method. The short form International Physical Activity Questionnaire and the Life Satisfaction Questionnaire were administered to a sample of eighty-two individuals (mean age 38 years) with varying degrees of vision loss. Results. The study found that more than 50% of the respondents were classified as being highly active and that the total sample was “rather satisfied” with life “as a whole”. The level of PA performed was significantly positively correlated with the level of life satisfaction. Conclusions. PA increases the subjective quality of life in blind and visually impaired individuals.

Purpose. The main purpose of this study was to design and perform a preliminary psychometric analysis of a measure in the subjective assessment of sports success in wheelchair rugby (WR). An additional objective of this study was to assess potential differences in the subjective assessment of sports success between rugby players who play in the first and second Polish Wheelchair Rugby League (PWRL). Methods. Thirty WR players who played in the first (n = 11) and second PWRL (n = 19) completed the newly-created Subjective Assessment of Sports Success in Wheelchair Rugby (SASS-WR) scale and a questionnaire collecting demographic, career, and sports training data. Results. The SASS-WR scale was found to be a valid and reliable measure of sports success in WR. The final version consists of 12 items defining four dimensions of sports success: (1) Individual Sports Success of the Player, (2) National Sports Success of the Team, (3) International Sports Success of the Team, (4) Social and Personal Success of the Player. The players in the first league were significantly more focused on achieving individual sports success as well as having their team achieve national and international sports success when compared with the players in the second league. Social and personal success (the fourth dimension of the SASS-WR) was more important for the second league players than first league players, although this difference was not significant. Conclusions. The findings suggest that the SASS-WR scale can serve as a valuable diagnostic tool in assessing sports success among WR players.

Wstęp Uraz rdzenia kręgowego (URK) powoduje zaburzenie wielu podstawowych funkcji organizmu człowieka (np. porażenie czuciowo-ruchowe) oraz możliwość wystąpienia niebezpiecznych powikłań zdrowotnych (np. odleżyny), które przyczyniać się mogą do obniżenia jakości życia osób po tego typu urazach. Dla przystosowania się do nowo powstałej sytuacji osoby po URK muszą zdobyć odpowiednią wiedzę z zakresu patofizjologii URK oraz medyczno-społecznych skutków urazu, w tym zwłaszcza profilaktyki powikłań pourazowych. W związku z powyższym celem niniejszej pracy była ocena związku wiedzy o stanie zdrowia z jakością życia związaną ze stanem zdrowia (ang. Health-RelatedQuality of Life – HRQoL) wśród osób po URK. Materiał i metody Badaniami objęto 100 osób po URK, w tym 22 kobiety oraz 78 mężczyzn, uzależnionych w codziennym funkcjonowaniu od wózka inwalidzkiego. W badaniach wykorzystano: 1) Test wiedzy na temat stanu zdrowia osób po URK oraz 2) Kwestionariusz SF-36 służący do oceny jakości życia związanej ze stanem zdrowia. Wyniki Przeprowadzona analiza statystyczna wykazała istotny związek pomiędzy wiedzą na temat stanu zdrowia a wymiarem fizycznym (p=0,019) oraz wymiarem mentalnym HRQoL (p=0,004). Wysoce istotną zależność wykazano pomiędzy wiedzą na temat stanu zdrowia a ograniczeniami w pełnieniu ról z powodu zdrowia fizycznego (p=0,001), ograniczeniami w pełnieniu ról z powodu problemów emocjonalnych (p=0,002) oraz poczuciem zdrowia psychicznego (p=0,001). Stwierdzono także istotną zależność pomiędzy wiedzą o stanie zdrowia a ogólnym poczuciem zdrowia (p=0,025) oraz witalnością (p=0,017). Wnioski Wiedza na temat stanu zdrowia stanowi istotną zmienną, która determinuje HRQoL osób po URK. Czynnik ten wykazuje istotny związek z mentalnym oraz fizycznym wymiarem HRQoL.

Celem pracy była ocena obiektywnej oraz subiektywnej jakości życia kobiet po mastektomii. W badaniu udział wzięły 53 kobiety, u których średni wiek w dniu badania wyniósł 57 lat. Do badania wykorzystano ankietę zawierającą pytania dotyczące obiektywnej jakości życia oraz Kwestionariusz Satysfakcji Życiowej oceniający subiektywną jakość życia. Badania wykazały, że kobiety po mastektomii są usatysfakcjonowane ze swojego życia, szczególnie z relacji z przyjaciółmi i znajomymi. Badania wykazały również, że kobiety po mastektomii częściej wybierają pasywne formy spędzania czasu wolnego, takie jak oglądanie telewizji (64,2%), niż formy aktywne, np. podróżowanie (43,4%). Aktywność zawodowa u badanych osób spadła o 43,4% w stosunku do sytuacji przed chorobą. Głównymi determinantami ogólnej satysfakcji życiowej badanych kobiet był poziom zadowolenia z życia seksualnego oraz sposobu spędzania czasu wolnego.

The aim of the study was to assess the objective and subjective quality of life in women after mastectomy. 53 women, average age 57 years, took part in the study. The methods used included a survey consisting of questions concerning objective quality of life and the Life Satisfaction Questionnaire evaluating subjective quality of life. The study revealed that women after mastectomy are satisfied with their lives, especially with their relations with friends and acquaintances. The study also showed that women after mastectomy more often choose passive forms of entertainment e.g. watching television (64.2%) instead of active ones, e.g. travelling (43.4%). Vocational activity among study participants decreased by 43.4% in comparison to the situation before disease. The main predictors of general life satisfaction in women who took part in the study were satisfaction with their sex life and ways of spending their spare time.

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to determine the athletic identity (AI) of blind and able-bodied tandem cyclists and explore its relationship to selected variables. An additional objective of this study was to analyze the reliability of the seven-item Athletic Identity Measurement Scale (AIMS) for tandem cyclists. Methods. The participants (N = 50) completed measures of AI, variables characterizing their loss of vision (degree and time of loss) and variables characterizing their sports level (the number of hours of training per week and sports experience). Results. The AI level of able-bodied tandem captains is significantly higher than the level in visually impaired athletes. Blind tandem cyclists were found to be a fairly homogeneous group according to AI. There were no differences in AI and the degree and time of vision loss, the number of hours of training per week and when a cycling license was received. Psychometric analysis showed that AIMS is a reliable and consistent research tool in the evaluation of AI of tandem cyclists. Conclusions. The findings suggest that there is a need to increase the involvement of blind cyclists in the sport as well as their responsibility for sports results.

Despite many previous studies dealing with various aspects of physical activity in individuals with an amputation, the risk of injury in amputee footballers has not been assessed thus far. The aim of this study was to characterize the incidence and causes of sport injuries experienced by amputee football players. Furthermore, the incidence of injuries was stratified according to the players’ level of competitive aggressiveness and anger, and their role in the field. The study included 21 members of the Polish National Amputee Football Team, who have been followed-up for a period of 6 months. A total of 16 injuries were recorded, including three that required a medical consultation: luxation of the left elbow, adductor strain and ankle sprain. The group of injuries that have not been consulted with a physician included muscle strains (n = 4), abrasions (n = 3), bruising (n = 3), joint subluxations (n = 2) and luxation (n = 1). The injuries turned out to be more frequent in the lower limbs (n = 10) than in the upper ones (n = 6). The risk of injury turned out to be higher during trainings (n = 9) than matches (n = 7). Amputee football seems to be associated with low risk of injury, since only several bodily contusions were documented throughout the study period. The injuries occurred in 38% of the players; this makes amputee football a relatively safe discipline which can be recommended to physically disabled persons.
