摘要

没有文献支持南非存在一种有效的标准化评估工具，可以帮助足科医生早期诊断1至5岁儿科患者的发育迟缓。南非的足科医生需要一个合适的评估工具来评估儿童的发育情况。南非足科医生可以使用的一种潜在形式是步态和下肢观察形式评估工具。目的：本研究的目的是评估GALLOP评估工具对足科医生的“易用性”和“有用性”，以有效评估1岁至5岁的儿科患者。方法：该研究采用混合方法描述性设计类型，目标人群为约翰内斯堡都市区所有南非卫生专业委员会（HPCSA）注册的足病医生。在允许参与者使用GALLOP评估工具一段时间后，进行了一项调查，以确定GALLOP评价工具的“易用性”和“有用性”。结果：所有参与者一致认为，GALLOP评估工具对南非足病医生有益，该评估工具无需改进。

Assessing the need for a standardised paediatric assessment tool for podiatrists in South Africa

There is no literature to support the existence of an effective standardised assessment tool in South Africa that aids the podiatrist in the early diagnosis of developmental delay in the paediatric patient from age one to five. Podiatrists in South Africa (SA) need a suitable assessment tool to evaluate child development. A potential proforma that could be used by South African podiatrists is the Gait and Lower Limb Observation Proforma (GALLOP) Assessment Tool.

Aim

The aim of this research was to evaluate the “ease of use” and “usefulness” of the GALLOP Assessment Tool for podiatrists to effectively assess the paediatric patient from age one to age five.

Methods

The study was of a mixed methods descriptive design type, targeting all Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) registered podiatrists in the Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipal area. After allowing the participants to use the GALLOP Assessment Tool for a period of time, a survey was conducted to establish the “ease of use” and “usefulness” of the GALLOP Assessment Tool.

Results

All participants agreed that the GALLOP Assessment Tool would be beneficial to South African podiatrists and that the assessment tool does not need to be improved upon.
