Orthotics Fact Sheet
Foundations of Pediatric Orthotics FACT The goal of this fact sheet is to provide a reference highlighting key points of orthotic management in children. Additional information on pediatric orthotic management can be located in the Atlas of Orthoses and Assistive Devices, edited by the American Acad- emy of Orthopedic Surgeons, and Lower Extremity Orthotic Intervention for the Pediatric SHEET Client in Topics in Physical Therapy: Pediatrics, edited by the American Physical Therapy Association. What Is an Orthosis? An orthosis is an external device with controlling forces to improve body alignment, improve function, immobilize the injured area, prevent or improve a deformity, protect a joint or limb, limit or reduce pain, and/or provide proprioceptive feedback. Orthoses are named for the part of the body they cover. Orthoses can be custom molded and custom fitted (custom fitted from prefabricated orthoses or off the shelf). Orthoses are classified as durable medical devices (DME) and require L-codes for insurance reimbursement. A prescription signed by a physician is usually required for insurance reimbursement for custom-molded and custom-fit orthoses. Who Designs and Provides Orthoses? • Certified orthotists have formal education in biomechanics and mate- rial sciences required in designing custom devices. They are nation- ally board certified, and 11 states require licensure to provide custom devices. There are approximately 3,000 certified orthotists in the US, with a limited number of orthotists specializing in pediatrics. Pediatric orthotists evaluate the child, cast the child, modify the mold, fabricate the orthosis, and custom fit the orthosis to the child. • Physical therapists are trained in the function of orthoses and will frequently fit and measure orthoses.

Behavioral Challenges in Fragile X Syndrome
FRAGILE X CLINICAL & RESEARCH CONSORTIUM Consensus of the Fragile X Clinical & Research Consortium BEHAVIORAL CHALLENGES IN FRAGILE X SYNDROME First Published: June 2011 Last Updated: December 2018 fragilex.org/consensus BEHAVIORAL CHALLENGES IN FRAGILE X SYNDROME Introduction Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a genetic condition that causes developmental disabilities in both males and females. Though FXS occurs in both genders, males are more frequently affected than females, and often with more severity. FXS is the most common cause of inherited intellectual disability and the most common-known single gene cause of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that accounts for about 2-3 percent of all ASD cases. At this time, there is no medical test, such as a blood test or brain scan, which can diagnose ASD; rather it is diagnosed by interview and clinical observation. Anxiety, especially social phobia and specific phobias, as well as generalized anxiety, is very common in FXS and often disabling. FXS is a genetic disorder caused by a full mutation in the Fragile X Mental Retardation (FMR1) gene. Full mutations in FMR1 cause a deficit in Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP). This deficit in FMRP results in abnormal communication among brain cells, which in turn affects learning and behavior. In many, though not all cases, FXS causes a spectrum of behavioral conditions in affected individuals, which can be challenging to their families, peers, and teachers, and can limit their interactions and opportunities within the wider society. At this time, there is no cure for the condition; therefore, management of FXS is largely focused on treatment of the challenging behaviors.

Title: Outpatient Physical Therapy Presence and Access in Medically Underserved Chicago Communities
TITLE: OUTPATIENT PHYSICAL THERAPY PRESENCE AND ACCESS IN MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED CHICAGO COMMUNITIES Introduction: Levels of morbidity and mortality in the U.S. continue to be reported as higher among racial and ethnic minorities than among the White population, suggesting a potentially higher demand for PT services among minorities. Similar trends of racial/ethnic health disparities that exist at the national level are also reflected in the City of Chicago. The majority of neighborhoods identified as medically underserved in Chicago are predominantly African American and Hispanic. The designated medically underserved areas receive safety net services that include free or Medicaid primary care, behavioral health and oral care. Aside from hospital facilities, there is limited/no mention of Physical Therapy (PT) services offered by safety net health facilities. Unpublished studies of PT presence in Chicago reported low or no outpatient PT services in several predominately African American neighborhoods. Purpose: This report describes the innovative application of geographic information systems (GIS) using publically available data to examine the presence of outpatient PT services in medically underserved Chicago communities. Methods: Study design: This is a mixed methods study designed to: 1) acquire georeferenced data to portray the current spatial distribution of outpatient PT services in six selected Chicago communities; 2) conduct focus groups to gather residents’ perspectives on the PT presence and accessibility in their communities. Procedures: Outpatient PT providers were identified though a Google search of PT clinics, health clinics, and hospitals in the selected neighborhoods. Identified providers were telephoned to confirm onsite PT services and record number of physical therapists employed full time and part time.
