Abstract

  Background: Overweight and obesity play a major role in an individual’s Health with Quality of Life (HRQOL). Several studies reported that there are differences between the results in different communities since HRQOL score in relation to BMI is sensitive to specific communities. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the Body Mass Index (BMI) and Health with Quality of Life among the Medical Undergraduates of Universitas Padjadjaran, Bandung  Methods: This study was an analytical cross-sectional study conducted from September to November 2012 in Faculty of Medicine Universitas Padjadjaran. A total of 280 respondents aged 16-30 were selected from the of 2009, 2010 2011 and 2012 classes of medical undergraduates after a thorough BMI screening. The overweight and obese subjects were selected using total sampling method, while subjects with  normal BMI were sampled using simple random sampling. The subjects were asked to fill up Short Form 36 questionnaires. The correlation was assessed using Spearman`s Correlation test and the difference between the groups were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis test. Results: Of the 260 respondents, there was a weak correlation between the BMI and total health with the quality of life of the undergraduates (rho = -0.173). Among the eight scales used, there was no correlation shown in three scales, namely body pain, social function, and mental health,  in any of the groups. Conclusion: Increased body mass index impairs the health-related quality of life of the respondents, except in scales such as body pain, social function, and mental health.Keywords: Body mass index, health related to quality of life, Short Form 36 DOI: 10.15850/amj.v2n1.424

Abstract

Background: Cerebral palsy (CP) as a non-progressive syndrome of motor function and posture disturbance is caused by the abnormality or damage on the brain during its development. Children with CP usually have motor, sensory, communication, and intellectual disturbances. Medical rehabilitation is important; however, the environmental aspect is also crucial for their development. Parents as their caregivers may have good knowledge to assist their children during rehabilitation. This study aimed to explore the knowledge, attitude, and behavior among parents with CP children.Methods: This study was descriptive quantitative study and conducted at the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinic of Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung during September to October 2014. Parents of CP children were asked to complete a questionnaire that was specifically designed for this study after their consent was obtained.Results: From a total of 31 parents, 51.6% had good knowledge about CP; 58.1% had good attitude toward CP children, and 51.6% had good behavior while taking care of their children.Conclusions: The majority of parents with CP children have good knowledge, attitude, and behavior towards CP children. The knowledge of risk factors of cerebral palsy are poor, therefore, it is necessary for doctors and therapists to provide more education sessions on the risk factors and other related topics about cerebral palsy.

Abstract

Background: Children with Cerebral Palsy have abnormalities in the motoric function that cause feeding problems and higher energy requirements compared to normal children. These problems put the patients at risk of getting inadequate nutrient intake, leading to malnutrition and thus affecting the health outcomes. This study aimed to explore the nutritional status and nutrient intake among children with Cerebral Palsy.Methods: Children with Cerebral Palsy who came for a rehabilitation program in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung were recruited from September–October 2014. Descriptive quantitative study design was performed. Nutritional status was determined by body weight and body height or length if the children could not stand upright to calculate Z-scoreBMI-for-age and Length/Height-for-age according to WHO. Undernutrition was determined when Z-score≤ -2; stunting was designated as height below the average of their age; whereas wasting as a weight. A repeated 24 hours of food recall was used to measure nutrient intake.Results: There were 18 children with Cerebral Palsy, consisting of boys (n=7) and girls (n=11). Only 33.3% of patients had good nutritional status, the others (n12; 67.7%) were under nutrition; of whom stunting (n7) was found, followed by wasting (n3) and both stunting and wasting (n2). These under nutrition patients had predominantly a lower energy and carbohydrate intake.Conclusions: Most of the Cerebral Palsy children are in under nutrition status due to a low energy and carbohydrate intake, therefore, special attention in mother education for the food pattern of their children needs to be raised.
