Caracterización de la discapacidad en población con limitaciones permanentes en movilidad o autocuidado, Girón, Colombia

Objective To identify the influence of functional impairments and limitations activities for persons with disabilities to participate in family and community activities. Methods This is a cross-sectional study with 4044 persons with disabilities, selected using probabilistic sampling and a door-to-door active search model in 5 towns in the District of Barranquilla. The data were processed with univariate analysis and bivariate analysis to determine the relationship between the study variables. Results 55.9% of the population were males, 41.6% were between 15 and 44 years of age, and 92.9% belonged to the lower socioeconomic stratum. 82.9% reported mobility limitations and 99% reported barriers to access non-formal learning activities, 98.6% to access public activities, and 97.5% to access productive activities. Individuals with that a lower limitation in exercising the power of reason, particularly thinking, can increase participation in activities with family and friends (OR, 0.8; 95% CI, 0.6–0.9), with the community (OR, 0.7; 95% CI, 0.6–0.9), religious or spiritual activities (OR, 0.8; 95% CI, 0.7–0.9). Conclusions There is a directly proportional relationship between structural impairment with the development of dependency and limited family, social, and work participation in the persons with disabilities.
