🚨 New Study Alert! 🚨 Did you know that only a small number of U.S. youth with chronic pain meet essential movement guidelines? Our latest research dives into this issue and its impact on their academic and social lives. 📚🤝 Key Takeaways: - Chronic Pain in Youth: Approximately 7.2% of U.S. children and adolescents experience chronic pain, a condition that can persist into adulthood and is linked to academic struggles, social difficulties, and mental health issues. - Movement Guidelines: The 24-hour movement behavior guidelines recommend: - Physical Activity: 60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous activity daily - Screen Time: Less than 2 hours of recreational screen time daily - Sleep: 9-11 hours for kids (5-13 years) and 8-10 hours for teens (14-17 years) - Our Findings: Only 4.53% of youth with chronic pain meet these combined guidelines. Those who do show significantly better academic engagement, social skills, and emotional health. Why It Matters: - Post-Covid Challenges: Chronic pain rates are rising, especially after Covid. Supporting healthy lifestyle behaviors in these kids can enhance their academic and social success. - Actionable Insights: Encouraging physical activity, reducing screen time, and ensuring adequate sleep can make a big difference in the lives of these young individuals. This study underscores the importance of holistic health strategies for youth with chronic pain. Let’s help them thrive! 💪🌟 It was a pleasure contributing to this important research. #ChronicPain #YouthHealth #MovementGuidelines #AcademicSuccess #SocialSkills #MentalHealth #HealthyKids #PostCovidRecovery sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Almost 70% of kids over the age of 12 don’t meet the minimum recommended healthy #MovementGuidelines, and girls are half as likely as boys to remain active into their teen years. Here we look at why, and what can be done about it: bit.ly/2NYLxHt @activeforlife

New pub from HALO visiting scholar @jbsayavera shows few children in Spain and Brazil met the 24h #movementguidelines before #COVID19 (Spain 3.0%; Brazil 11.7%) and fewer still met the guidelines during (Spain 0.3%; Brazil 7.5%). #CHEOResearchInstitute mdpi.com/2227-9067/8/2/83

Humbled and excited about the opportunity to work with the international team to develop SADEY (Sleep & Activity Database for the Early Years) & inform #MovementGuidelines #MovementBehaviours @EvanSluijs @DrCathD @uowsoc @UOWEarlyStart @ihmri @UOWGC @UOW

Wonderful insights into conducting movement behaviour research among children in 🇿🇦. Thanks for highlighting collaborations with @UOWEarlyStart in areas of 24hr movement guidelines and executive functions in young children with @DrSJHoward #earlyyearstoolbox #movementguidelines

V nice study (n≈4000) in @JAMAPediatrics by Nat Pearson @LaurenSherar1 @ma_hamer showing adolescent males/females with depressive symptoms & adolescent males who were obese were 40%-60% less likely to meet 24-hr movement guidelines #movementguidelines ja.ma/30ZkvAz

We had two very exciting, learning-filled and engaging workshops at the University of the Free State today. Though this two will be our last workshops, we strongly believe they lay a good foundation. #ECD #SAsEarlyYears MovementGuidelines #SpreadingTheWord @DrCathD @DPHRU_SA
