COMPARISON OF DIFFERENT WATER TREATMENT METHODS in terms of THEIR IMPACT ON SELECTED SKIN diseases DURING SWIMMING LESSONS

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Swimming education is an essential component of primary school education in the Czech Republic. For some children, mandatory swimming education is accompanied by the occurrence of skin diseases. However, skin conditions react very specifically to any aquatic environment. The aim was to find out how swimming education in primary schools influences the condition of skin diseases in school-age children (N = 348, age = 9.22 +- 0.82 years) from three elementary schools that underwent mandatory swimming training in pools with different water treatments (chlorine, salt, or UV+). We monitored the occurrence of these skin diseases: dry skin, atopic eczema, psoriasis, and plantar warts. Questionnaire surveys and examinations by a dermatologist before the commencement of swimming education and after its completion (within a range of 20 weeks) confirmed an increase in the occurrence of skin diseases in connection with swimming education in pools treated with all three methods. In the case of dry skin and plantar warts, the greatest increase occurred in the salt-treated pool, where dry skin manifested in 46.2% of students and plantar warts in 47.8% of students. The least increase in dry skin was observed at the chlorinated pool, affecting 26.5% of students, while the smallest increase in plantar warts was again recorded at the chlorinated pool, with warts appearing in 18.6% of students. For atopic eczema, the most significant worsening was observed among atopic individuals attending the salt-treated pool (53.3%), and the least was observed in the UV+ method (44%). In all cases, there was both a substantively and statistically significant change. Psoriasis was not present in the selected sample of children either before or after the completion of swimming education. For practice, this means that individuals with skin diseases should individually seek the optimal water treatment option in pools based on how their skin reacts to a particular type. However, this is unrealistic in the context of swimming education in primary schools.
