Résumé : International audience
This article studies the associative movement of people with a motor disability in Guadeloupe (FWI), which has contributed to the development of the care activities on the island. The first self-regulated associations, initiated at the beginning of the 1980s, were to influence the structuration of the new social and medico-social sector. From the analysis of the main actors’ interviews and archival materials, we can notice a double identity claim: a disabled people identity and a Guadelupian identity. This double identity claim will influence the care activities. While at first, the adjustment with the mainland France is looked for, the actors also provide an anti-authority speech, which puts forward Guadelupian specificities about the care activities.
Cet article étudie le mouvement associatif de personnes présentant une déficience motrice en Guadeloupe, département français d’outre-mer (DOM), qui a contribué au développement de la prise en charge du handicap sur l’île. Les premières associations autogérées, émergeantes au début des années 1980 vont influencer la structuration du jeune secteur social et médico-social. Sur la base d’une analyse des témoignages des acteurs de ce mouvement et d’archives associatives, nous avons pu relever que l’identité mobilisatrice est double : celle de personne ayant des incapacités et celle de Guadeloupéen. Cette double identité aura pour conséquence de donner une coloration particulière aux activités du care. Alors que dans un premier temps, le « rattrapage » avec la métropole est souhaité, les acteurs mobilisent également un discours contestataire en mettant en avant les spécificités guadeloupéennes dans la prise en charge des personnes handicapées.

Résumé : International audience
AIM: To describe the amount of medical and paramedical involvement in a sample of Breton children with cerebral palsy as a function of the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is a transversal descriptive study. All children with cerebral palsy in Brittany were eligible. Parents who accepted to participate were asked to fill in a questionnaire regarding medical and paramedical involvement with their child. RESULTS: One hundred and thirty-three parents participated. 40.6% of the children were level I on the GMFCS, 20.3% II, 12.03% III, 13.53% IV and 13.53% were level V. Thirty-nine percent of the children took at least one medication (of which 43% were antiepileptic drugs). 33.1% of the children had received at least one injection of botulinum toxin within the year. Forty-four percent used a mobility aid. Eighty-five percent of the children had at least one orthotic device, most often a night ankle-foot orthosis. The median number of rehabilitation sessions per week was 3.85 [0.5-11.5]. The frequency and type of sessions were mostly related to the GMFCS level. CONCLUSION: This study reports high levels of medical and paramedical involvement. Studies must attempt to define optimal practice.
