Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in an almost immediate need to limit social contact, including access to full-time education.
Teaching in the 2020/2021 academic year relied almost entirely on remote education. Medical students felt the problem of the lack of student-patient contact in particular. Internships and apprenticeships were kept to a minimum, and in many universities there were no apprenticeships, which also translated into the lack of acquisition of practical knowledge, which is very important in the work of a future medic.
The study covered students from all voivodeships. The nationwide character of the study made it possible to obtain objective results.
The objective of the study was to examine the level of satisfaction and acquired skills of students of the medical faculty, i.e. physiotherapy within remote education.
The results of the study and the literature review show that the preferred form of education in medical faculties is a mixed form of education, and student satisfaction with the remote form is rather low. It has been shown that this method of education does not lower the level of satisfaction, and at the same time has a positive effect on the economic aspect of studying.

Tomasz Nowakowski, Roksana Malak, Marta Woldańska-Okońska – The use of deep friction massage and Kinesiology Taping ® (KT) in school children with faulty body posture. Fizjoterapia Polska 2022; 22(3); 6-14

Abstract
Objective. 1. Performing tests and measurements on children, determining developmental, acquired or habitual abnormalities, 2. Conducting a therapy aimed at reducing or eliminating the diagnosed problems, and assessment of the effectiveness of the therapy.
Material and methods. 64 children were tested: 40 girls and 24 boys at age 6–14 years from Primary School in Krosinko. Three types of examinations were performed: Visual Body Posture Evaluation Test by Tadeusz Kasperczyk. Moreover, indicatory muscles length tests were conducted including: hamstring muscles, quadratus lumborum muscles, thigh adductor muscles, piriformis muscles and pectoralis major muscles and scoliometer measurement was acomplished. The comprehensive therapy was performed using several techniques: postisometric muscle relaxation, deep friction massage and Kinesiology Taping applications.
Results. Statistically significant relationships were found in the improvement of body posture before and after the therapy undertaken in both sexes. Also, statistically significant correlations were found between the correction of the foot arch, varus knee in both sexes and the assessment of posture, p < 0.05.
Conclusions. The performed therapy improves the assessment of body posture in children. Proven tendency of proper feet arch correction and correction of the varus knees in both genders.

Abstract
Background. The Manual Ability Classification System is a five-level scale for evaluating the manual ability of children with cerebral palsy aged 4-18 years. The aim of the study was to determine how the manual ability of cerebral palsied children and youth is influenced by the type of cerebral palsy and daily activities indicating various levels of psychomotor development. Material and methods. The study involved a group of 40 children with cerebral palsy aged 4-18 years attending Special Education School Complex No. 103 and Special Education Kindergarten No. 164 in Poznań. The research tool was a questionnaire containing the Manual Ability Classification System filled in by the parents. ICP type according to the Ingram classification was determined together with the level of psychomotor development.Results. Children with bilateral hemiplegia (16) represented the poorest manual abilities compared to children with spastic diplegia (13) or spastic hemiplegia (11). There was a correlation between the ease of handling everyday objects and the ability to crawl (F (1.38) = 21.466, p = 0.0004) and between the ability to stand up unassisted and the ability to stand unassisted(F(1.38)=35.894,p=. 00000).Conclusions. 1. Children with bilateral hemiplegia were most limited in their ability to handle everyday objects. 2. The ability to crawl, stand up unassisted and stand unassisted were correlated with good object handling skills.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to demonstrate that posture quality influences psychomotor development among children with cerebral palsy. Materials and method: The study involved 33 children (16 girls, 17 boys) aged 1–18 years diagnosed with cerebral palsy who attended Special School Complex No. 103, the Wielkopolska Outpatient Clinic of Neurology, Department of Paediatric Orthopaedics and Traumatology in Teaching Hospital No. 4, and Bartek Rehabilitation Center in Poznań. The children were assessed in late 2007/early 2008 according to a standardised examination protocol. The results were analysed with Statistica 7.1 software.Results:1. There was a clear correlation between cervical spine position in the frontal plane and the ability to lift the head (p=.035). 2. There was a significant correlation between the presence of a deviation of the lumbar spine in the frontal plane and the ability to lift the head in a proper manner (p=,035). 3. Shoulder protraction influenced inappropriate forearm support patterns in a non-significant manner. Conclusions:1. The postural parameters that significantly influence the development of motor function are the position of the cervical and lumbar spine in the frontal plane. 2. Spinal shape influences the motor ability of children with cerebral palsy.
