The application of electro tactile stimulation of tongue for rehabilitation in patients with balance disorders
Gitschinská, Eva ; Čakrt, Ondřej (advisor) ; Paulasová - Schwabová, Jaroslava (referee)
Diploma the 'is deals wi th the research of effect of biofeedback in the form of electrotactile stimulation of tongue in the patients with balance disorders eaused by the cerebellar lesion. For the therapeutic program 4 patients with cerebellar ataxia at the age of38 - 74 years were chosen. Subjects have partieipated in the therapeutic program with the application of biofeedback, they were training postural stability while visual control was excluded and they were using electrotacti le signal on the tongue for orientation. I used neurological tests BESTest and Dynamic Oait Index, questionnaire The Activities- Specific Balance Confidence (ABC) Scale, Dizziness I Tandicap Inventory (D ll) a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and examination by stati posturography for evaluation of postural stability in the patients. I supposed that therapy by biofeedback in the form of electrotactile stimulation of tongue improves postural stability in the patients with balance disorders caused by cerebellar lesion.

Developmental dyspraxia and playing the piano
Dvořáková, Lenka ; Kraus, Josef (advisor) ; Gitschinská, Eva (referee)
Bibliographic identification DVOŘÁKOVÁ, Lenka. Developmental dyspraxia and playing the piano. Prague: Charles University, 2nd Faculty of Medicine, Department of rehabilitation and sports medicine, 2013. 97 p. Supervisor MUDr. Josef Kraus, CSc. Abstract The diploma thesis deals in the theoretical part with summarizing the knowledge of Developmental Dyspraxia or rather Developmental Coordination Disorder, the effect of music on human and the possibilities of using music as one of the possible intervention to treatment of motor difficulties. The practical part deals with an evaluation of motor skills in a group of 25 pianists with the usage test battery Movement Assessment Battery for Children, second edition (MABC-2). It is also engaged in trying to disclose the relationship between level of motor skills and the attention of the child and assesses the level of physical activity of pianists. The physical activity was monitored using accelerometers ActiGraph GT3X and attention was diagnosed by the d2 test. No significant difference in level of motor skills compared to the norm population was found, however, a significant difference between scores of the single components of the test MABC-2 was revealed. The statistically significant correlation between the level of motor skills and attention was also confirmed....
