SAN DIEGO ISD PRESS RELEASE

A STATEWIDE SCREENING PROGRAM IS BEING OFFERED The Texas State Legislature passed a law in 1985 that requires all sixth and ninth grade students to be screened for spinal deformities. Early detection of abnormal spinal curvature can prevent serious health problems. This is a problem that may begin during the early adolescent years (from 10 – 14 years of age), with an estimated 1 in 10 adolescents having some degree of abnormal curvature. Curves that are detected early may only require periodic observation by a specialist. Moderate curves may require the wearing of a brace, which is usually supervised by an orthopedic specialist. In most cases, need for major surgery for this deformity can be eliminated through early detection. Spinal screening for (School and/or School District, City and/or County) ,

school children has been scheduled to begin on (Day of Week)

. (Date)

Children will be screened for two types of spinal deformities: scoliosis and kyphosis. Scoliosis is a condition in which the spine is twisted, causing misalignment of the upper body or lower back. This condition can worsen and lead to much pain, as well as complications of the heart and lungs. Kyphosis is an exaggerated rounding of the spine. Progression of these two conditions can often be arrested if detected early. For more information regarding the scheduled spinal screening, contact: .

SAN DIEGO ISD PRE-SCREENING LETTER TO PARENTS

Dear Parent/Guardian: School will be conducting spinal screening on . The purpose of spinal screening is to detect the signs of abnormal curves of the spine at their earliest stages so that the need for treatment can be determined. Scoliosis, a common spinal abnormality found in adolescents, is a sideways twisting of the spine. It is usually detected in children between 10 and 14 years of age. Kyphosis, sometimes called round back, is an exaggerated rounding of the upper back and is often confused with poor posture. Many cases of curvature of the spine are mild and require only ongoing observation by a physician when they are first diagnosed. Others can worsen with time as the child grows and require active treatment such as bracing and surgery. Early treatment can prevent the development of a severe deformity, which can affect a person’s appearance and health. The procedure for screening is simple. Screeners who have been specially trained will look at your child’s back while he/she stands and then bends forward. For this examination, boys and girls will be seen separately and individually. STUDENTS SHOULD WEAR OR BRING SHORTS TO SCHOOL FOR THE EXAM. ALL STUDENTS MUST REMOVE THEIR SHIRT FOR THIS EXAM. FOR THIS REASON, WE REQUEST THAT GIRLS WEAR A HALTER TOP, TUBE TOP, SPORTS BRA, OR A TWO-PIECE SWIMSUIT TOP UNDERNEATH THEIR SHIRT ON EXAM DAY. Parents will be notified of the results of the screening only if professional follow-up is necessary. This screening procedure does not replace your child’s need for regular health care and checkups. According to state law, all students in grades 6 and 9 (or grades 5 and 8) must receive the spinal screening. If, for religious reasons, you do not wish to have your child screened, you are to submit an affidavit of religious exemption to this office no later than . Thank you for your cooperation,

Sincerely,

(School Administrator)

CARTAA LOS PADRES ANTES DEL EXAMEN

Estimados padres o tutores: La escuela llevará a cabo exámenes de la columna vertebral el . El propósito de los exámenes de la columna vertebral es detectar los signos de curvaturas anormales de la columna vertebral en sus primeras etapas para determinar si es necesario el tratamiento. La escoliosis, anormalidad común de la columna vertebral que se observa en adolescentes, es una curvatura de la columna vertebral hacia los lados. Es usualmente detectado en niños de 10 a 14 años de edad. La cifosis, algunas veces llamada espalda encorvada, es una curvatura exagerada de la parte superior de la espalda y es muchas veces confundida con una mala postura. Muchos de los casos de curvaturas en la columna vertebral son leves y requieren únicamente de observación continua de un médico después del primer diagnóstico. Otras pueden empeorar con el tiempo a medida que el niño crece y éstas requieren de un tratamiento activo como aparatos ortopédicos y cirugía. El tratamiento temprano puede prevenir el desarrollo de una deformidad severa, la cual puede afectar la apariencia y salud de la persona. El procedimiento del examen es simple. Las personas que examinan y quienes han sido entrenados en la especialidad, observarán la espalda de su niño mientras que él o ella permanece de pié y después se dobla agachándose hacia adelante. Para llevar a cabo este examen, los niños y niñas serán observados por separado e individualmente. PARA LLEVAR A CABO EL EXAMEN, LOS ESTUDIANTES DEBERÁN VESTIRSE CON PANTALONES CORTOS O TRAERLOS A LA ESCUELA. TODOS LOS ESTUDIANTES DEBEN QUITARSE SU CAMISA DURANTE EL EXAMEN. POR ESTA RAZÓN LES PEDIMOS QUE EL DÍA DEL EXAMEN, LAS NIÑAS SE VISTAN CON BLUSAS QUE SE AMARRAN EN EL CUELLO, BLUSAS SIN TIRANTES, BRASIER PARA DEPORTES O, CON LA PARTE SUPERIOR DE UN TRAJE DE BAÑO DE DOS PIEZAS, ABAJO DE UNA BLUSA. A los padres se les notificará sobre los resultados del examen, únicamente si se necesita un seguimiento profesional. Este examen no reemplaza la necesidad de atención de salud y de los exámenes que se hacen con regularidad en su niño. De acuerdo con la ley estatal, todos los estudiantes de grados 6 y 9 (o grados 5 y 8) deben recibir el examen de la columna vertebral. Si es que, por razones religiosas, usted no desea que a su niño se le haga el examen, deberá entregar a esta oficina una declaración jurada de exoneración religiosa, no después del . Agradecemos su cooperación.

Atentamente,

(Administrador escolar) 28

WATCH OUT FOR SCOLIOSIS Scoliosis, an abnormal curve of the spine, can be corrected if detected early...

What is scoliosis? Scoliosis is a “side to side” curve of the back. It is a deformity of the spinal column or backbone. What causes scoliosis? Most scoliosis is of unknown cause (“idiopathic”). Recent studies suggest that heredity does play a part in these cases. Therefore, if a person is found to have scoliosis, other family members should also be checked. Who is affected by scoliosis? Anyone can be affected by scoliosis. Onset usually occurs between the ages of 10 and 13, when the child begins the rapid growth spurt. Scoliosis can affect members of both sexes, but occurs more frequently in females, who account for approximately 85% of the cases. Why is screening for scoliosis important? It is most important to detect the condition as early as possible so that treatment can be provided. Without treatment, undetected scoliosis can get worse rapidly during the growth years and result in physical deformity, limitation of physical activity and other more serious complications. What are the signs of scoliosis? Frequent signs are a bump over the shoulder blade; one shoulder or hip higher than the other; unequal distance between the arms and body, and clothes that “don’t hang right.” These signs are not always noticed and can be easily mistaken for poor posture. What is the treatment for scoliosis? In many instances of mild curvature, periodic supervision by a doctor is all that is necessary. When

medical treatment becomes necessary, an orthopedic surgeon (bone specialist) may recommend a brace or surgery depending on the condition. Regular follow-up while the child is wearing the brace is important. The doctor may prescribe a daily exercise and fitness program to maintain the muscles in good shape and promote a sense of well being, but exercise alone will not correct the problem. When other methods have failed or the scoliosis is severe, surgery may be necessary. After the operation, the child will need to wear a cast or brace for a number of months and continue to be supervised by an orthopedic surgeon. The remaining disability may be minimal and the patient may lead a normal life after recovery. Are schools required to provide screening? House Bill 832 passed by the Texas Legislature in 1985 requires screening for abnormal spinal curves in grades 6 and 9 (schools may adopt programs to screen grades 5 and 8 instead of 6 and 9). If a child shows any signs of a possible deformity, the school is required to notify the parents. What can parents do? If notified that their child may have an abnormal spinal curve, parents should take their child to the doctor for a diagnosis. Parents can also learn to check their child for a curve of the spine. If they suspect that their child may have a problem, they may check with the school nurse, the health department, or their private doctor.

VIGILANDO QUE NO SE DESARROLLE LA ESCOLIOSIS La Escoliosis, una curvatura anormal de la columna, puede ser corregida si se detecta a tiempo ¿Qué es la escoliosis? La escoliosis es una curvatura de “lado a lado” de la espalda. Es una deformidad de la columna vertebral o espina dorsal.

Cuando el tratamiento médico se hace necesario, un cirujano ortopédico (especialista en huesos) podría recomendar aparatos ortopédicos o cirugía, dependiendo de la condición.

¿Qué causa la escoliosis? La mayor parte de la escoliosis resulta por causas desconocidas (“idiopáticas”.) Estudios recientes sugieren que el factor hereditario tiene algo que ver en estos casos. Por lo tanto, si se descubre que una persona tiene escoliosis, otros miembros de la familia también deberán ser examinados.

Mientras el niño esté usando el aparato ortopédico, es importante que con regularidad se continúe con el tratamiento. El doctor también podría recomendar un programa diario de ejercicios y actividades para mantener los músculos en buena forma física y contribuir a una sensación de bienestar, pero el ejercicio únicamente no va a corregir el problema.

¿A quién afecta la escoliosis? Cualquier persona puede resultar afectada por la escoliosis. El principio generalmente ocurre entre los 10 y los 13 años de edad, cuando el niño empieza la etapa de crecimiento más rápida. La escoliosis puede afectar a miembros de la familia de ambos sexos, pero ocurre con más frecuencia en las mujeres, quienes forman parte aproximadamente de un 85% de los casos.

Cuando otros métodos han fallado o, la escoliosis es severa, la cirugía podría ser necesaria. Después de la operación, el niño necesitará traer un yeso o aparato ortopédico por cierto número de meses y continuar bajo la supervisión del cirujano ortopédico. La incapacidad que finalmente quede podría ser mínima y el paciente podrá llevar una vida normal después de recuperarse.

¿Porqué es importante hacer un examen de escoliosis? Es de suma importancia detectar esta condición tan pronto como sea posible, para poder proporcionar tratamiento. Sin tratamiento, la escoliosis puede empeorar rápidamente durante los años de crecimiento y finalmente resultar en deformidad física, en limitación de las actividades físicas y otras complicaciones más serias. ¿Cuáles son los signos de la escoliosis? Los signos frecuentes son: protuberancia en el omóplato; un hombro o cadera más alta que la otra; distancia desigual entre los brazos y el cuerpo o, la ropa que “no queda bien.” Estos signos no siempre son notados y pueden ser considerados fácilmente como una mala postura. ¿Cuál es el tratamiento de la escoliosis? En muchos casos en que la curvatura es moderada, la supervisión periódica de parte del médico es lo único que se necesita.

¿Están las escuelas obligadas a proporcionar un examen físico? La Legislatura en Texas pasó el House Bill 832 [ley No. 832] en 1985, el cual exige que se examine a los estudiantes de los años escolares del 6 a 9 para ver si tienen curvaturas en la espina dorsal (las escuelas pueden adoptar programas para examinar a los estudiantes de los años escolares del 5 y 8 grado en vez del 6 y 9.) Si un niño muestra cualquier signo de una posible deformidad, a la escuela se le requiere notificar a los padres. ¿Qué pueden hacer los padres? Si a los padres se les ha notificado que su niño podría tener una curvatura anormal en la columna, los padres deben llevar a su niño al doctor para obtener un diagnóstico. Los padres también pueden aprender a revisar a sus niños y ver que no desarrollen una curvatura en la espina dorsal. Si ellos sospechan que su niño pueda tener un problema, pueden hablar con la enfermera de la escuela, con el departamento de salud o con su médico privado.

Esta es una manera simpe de revisar a su nino para ver si no tiene escoliosis NORMAL
