Burdová, Karolína ; Savková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Němečková, Michaela (referee)
Author: Karolína Burdová Instituion: Rehabilitační klinika Fakultní nemocnice Hradec Králové Title: Ovlivnění spasticity u stavů po CMP Supervisor: Mgr. Pavlína Savková Number of pages: 74 Number of attachments: 3 Years of defence: 2012 Keywords: spasticity, stroke, muscle tone, movement Bachelor thesis discusses the influence of spasticity in patients after vascular brain event. The aim was to centre a text that summarizes the theoretical and practical information relating to the treatment of patients with VBE (stroke), in which one of the clinical symptoms of spasticity. The first part - theoretical - focuses on the anatomical and physiological information relating on the motor control, spasticity and vascular brain event. Control of movements is divided into subsections according to the level of the nervous system, from the lowest level - the spinal cord to the highest - cortex. Chapter VBE is divided by the emergence of haemorrhagic VBE and ischemic. The chapter is presented spasticity pathophysiology, clinical manifestations and its treatment. Therapy of spasticity is most devoted to theoretical work. The second part - practical - it provides examples of patients after VBE (stroke), in which one of the complications of spasticity. It is written in the form of case reports.

Kinesiological Analysis of the Rowing Stroke
Zbořilová, Martina ; Bačáková, Radka (advisor) ; Kračmar, Bronislav (referee)
Title: Kinesiological Analysis of the Rowing Stroke. Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to obtain, to analyse and process the data on the activity and involvement of selected measured muscles, working during one rowing stroke - in the drive part and in the recovery part. Methods: The work is processed by a kinesiological analysis of selected movement of the rowing stroke, based on the determination of muscle activation. Electromyography method was synchronized with the video recording. Results: Based on the sequences of the muscle activation was described their order and sequence in the actual shot of the rowing stroke (drive phase and recovery). We have proved that in the rigorous technical performance are always activated the same muscles in the exactly same order. Individual deviations from the correct technique in measuring appeared and thus enable their correction. Keywords: Electromyography, stroke, rowing, muscles.

The utilization of COPM in patients following an acute cerebrovascular attack
Košťálková, Olga ; Nováková, Olga (advisor) ; Svěcená, Kateřina (referee)
This paper deals with the utilization of Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) in clients following an acute cerebrovascular attack (stroke). The theoretical part examines the rules and circumstances of the rehabilitation of clients following the stroke and specific approaches that inspired COPM. This part also describes Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (history, key ideas, structure, and psychometric skills). The practical part investigates the effects of utilizing COPM in patients after an acute cerebrovascular attack and compares the results to the effects of usual occupational therapy examination with data analysis. The conclusion of the study focuses on the satisfaction of clients with the measure and the effect of measure for subsequent intervention and cooperation with occupational therapist. Key words: COPM, stroke, Client - centered practice, occupational performance, Canadian Model of Occupational Performance

Use of mirror neurons in rehabilitation of upper extremities in patients after stroke
Dedja, Fregen ; Čakrt, Ondřej (advisor) ; Mareš, Pavel (referee)
The aim of this thesis "Use of mirror neurons in rehabilitation of upper extremities in patients after stroke" is to conduct basic information related to issues like stroke and use of mirror neurons in rehabilitation of upper extremities. In this review I would like to present data on mirror neurons, that appear to play a fundamental role in both action understanding, imitation and movement. I would like to stress, in particular, those properties specific to the human mirror neurons, that might explain the human capacity to learn by imitation. This thesis consists of three parts. General part contains a general overview of stroke problematics, and its pathology, symptoms, course, diagnosis and therapy. The special part of this thesis explains the function of mirror neurons and their use in rehabilitation of upper extremities in patients after stroke. The thesis includes a case in which the examination and the therapy suggested by the author tries prove that mirror neurons can be part of the rehabilitation process. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Dysphagia failure of the upper esophageal sphincter in patients after stroke
Gregová, Daniela ; Bitnar, Petr (advisor) ; Smolíková, Libuše (referee)
Stroke is one of the most frequent causes of dysphagia, a serious symptom triggered by affected coordination of the swallowing muscles or limited sensation. This bachelor thesis focuses on providing a compendium of literature concerned with dysphagia and demonstrating how the symptom occurs after cerebrovascular accident. The first part discusses the swallowing process and stroke from anatomical, physiological and neurophysiological standpoint. Second part presents a closer view of the upper sphincter of esophagus, additional healt problems caused by dysphagia and possibilities of alimentation and brings up a set of the most frequently used diagnostic methods. From chapter 4 and 5 on, the thesis describes methods and technics that can be involved in the treatment of patient with swallowing difficulties and casuistry of a patient suffering from serious dysphagia caused by cerebrovascular accident.
