Özet:

 Objective: The coronavirus pandemic has caused a decrease in physical activity all over the world, restricting the participation of special groups such as disabled individuals in rehabilitation centers. The aim of our study is to examine the relationship between physical activity participation and the quality of life of children with physical disabilities during the coronavirus pandemic. Material and Method: Thirty-two children with physical disabilities Mean age; 14.971.94 years and 32 children with typical development Mean age: 14.501.52 years were included in the study. Childrens physical activity participation was assessed with the Childhood and Adolescence Physical Activity Patterns Questionnaire, and their quality of life was evaluated with The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory. Results: Physical activity participation and quality of life related to physical health and social function of children with physical disabilities were lower than children with typical development p0.05. While there was no relationship between physical activity and quality of life in children with typical development p0.05, participation in physical activity was found to be associated with quality of life in children with physical disabilities p0.05. Conclusion: In our study, it was concluded that physical activity participation of children with physical disabilities was lower than children with typical development, and the quality of life increased with the increase in physical activity participation. Directing children with disabilities to programs that increase their physical activity can contribute to improving their quality of life, especially in processes that create activity restrictions, such as pandemics.

 Amaç: Koronavirüs pandemisi tüm dünyada fiziksel aktivitenin azalmasına sebep olmuş, engelli bireyler gibi özel grupların rehabilitasyon merkezlerine katılımları kısıtlamıştır. Çalışmamızın amacı koronavirüs pandemisinde bedensel engelli çocukların fiziksel aktivite katılımları ile yaşam kaliteleri arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya 32 bedensel engelli ortalama yaş;14,971,94 yıl ve 32 tipik gelişim gösteren çocuk ortalama yaş;14,501,52 yıl dâhil edildi. Katılımcıların fiziksel aktivite katılımları Çocukluk ve Ergenlik Fiziksel Aktivite Biçimleri Anketi; yaşam kaliteleri, Çocuklar için Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği ile değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Bedensel engelli çocukların fiziksel aktivite katılımları ile fiziksel sağlık ve sosyal işlevsellik ile ilgili yaşam kalitesi tipik gelişim gösteren çocuklara göre daha düşük düzeydeydi p0,05. Tipik gelişim gösteren çocuklarda fiziksel aktivite ile yaşam kalitesi arasında bir ilişki bulunmazken p0,05, bedensel engelli çocuklarda fiziksel aktiviteye katılım ile yaşam kalitesi ilişkili bulundu p0,05. Sonuç: Çalışmamızda bedensel engelli çocukların fiziksel aktivite katılımlarının tipik gelişim gösteren çocuklara kıyasla daha düşük düzeyde olduğu ve fiziksel aktivite katılımının artışıyla yaşam kalitesinin arttığı sonucuna varılmıştır. Özellikle pandemi gibi aktivite kısıtlılığı yaratan süreçlerde engelli çocukların fiziksel aktivitelerini arttırıcı programlara yönlendirmeleri yaşam kalitelerinin iyileştirilmesine katkı sağlayabilir.
