Influence of deep stabilizing system on obstructive lung disease
LUKŠÍKOVÁ, Klára
This Bachelor Thesis tries to solve the question whether the activation of the deep stabilization system has got any provable influence on obstructive lung diseases. It is based on clinical experience that points to a positive influence of the deep stabilization system on respiration. The aim of this thesis is a spirometric observation of resting breathing and respiratory rhythm which come about after the activation of the deep stabilization system when Vojta reflex locomotion method has been used to arouse this system. The theoretical part briefly summarizes findings about respiratory physiology and kinesiology; it deals with pathophysiology and pathokinesiology of obstructive air passages with a focus on asthma bronchiale. One of the chapters deals with spirometric examinations. Then there is a description of the deep stabilization system from the point of view of the influence on respiratory functions and a possibility of his activation through Vojta reflex locomotion. For the practical part of the thesis I chose qualitative strategies of research. Acquired data were based on 5 case interpretations which included anamnestic information and kinesiologic analysis of probands suffering from obstructive lung diseases. The main part of the research was built up on spirometric measuring of resting breathing, observation of changes in respiratory rhythm and changes in time proportions between inhalations and exhalations during three different situations. In the first situation there were no interventions in proband's breathing. In the second situation the proband was measured in the position of decentration. The third situation involved measuring after the activation of the deep stabilization system through Vojta reflex locomotion. The analogue scale of subjective perception of respiratory state was also included in the research. Evaluated data of the spiriometric measurements of resting breathing did not bring anticipated results. A positive result was recorded only at the changes of respiratory rhythm and a subjective perception of easier breathing was proved after the stimulation of Vojta reflex locomotion. The respiratory rhythm changes were dependent on postural situations. In the position of decentration the number of breaths increased, on the contrary the number of breaths decreased after the stimulation of Vojta reflex locomotion. When observing the subjective perception of respiratory state there was a shift on the analogue scale to a better position by 23.18 mm after the stimulation of Vojta reflex locomotion. Results in measurements of the time proportions between inhalations and exhalations were highly disparate.
