[Physical and psychological therapy of adolescents with deformities of spinal cord and other inborn anomalies].
A group of 103 adolescents who have been exposed to war trauma was examined by a specialist of physical medicine and rehabilitation and pedagogue-psychologist, in relation to deformities of spinal cord and other inborn anomalies. Repeated screening and retest on the level of stress and depression was done after two years. In the meantime, majority of adolescents was on physical and psychological treatment. It was established that 47 adolescents (45.6%) have simultaneously had flat back and flat feet, and that 12 of them (25.5%) from the same group had had 4 traumatic experiences. During the first testing, the medium stress level was established with 48 adolescents (46.6%), and during the retest this was established with 60 adolescents (58.2%). At the same time, we used Birleson scale of depression and established that 57 (55.3%) adolescents have had normal results; after the retest 66 (64.1%) adolescents have had normal result and this difference is statistically significant (p<0.002). When we analyzed diagnosis after the two screenings we did not found significant differences. Based on the results of this research, better programs for the team work with adolescents with deformities of spinal cord and depression can be made.
