Application of inertial sensors in physiotherapy
Doležalová, Eva ; Sládková, Petra (advisor) ; Oborná, Pavlína (referee)
OF BACHELOR THESIS: Author's first name and surname: Eva Doležalová Bachelor thesis supervizor: MUDr. Bc. Petra Sládková Bachelor thesis consultant: Mgr. Štěpánka Kozlerová Oponent: Title of bachelor thesis: Application of inertial sensors in physiotherapy Key words: inertial sensors, fyzioterapie, accelerometr, gyroskop, functional independence measures, neurorehabilitation Abstract: Inertial sensors are devices that allow monitoring of the movement. They are used also in physiotherapy, where they are applied to analyze walking and to detect falls. My bachelor thesis is focused on the possibility of using inertial sensors for monitoring patients affected by upper extremity. The theoretical part contains an outline of chosen foreign studies that deal with this issue. The second part is about theoretical neurorehabilitation, which is an important part of treatment for patients after brain damage. The practical part is processed in the form of quantitative research. The aim was to obtain and correlate the values obtained before and after the rehabilitation process. It was a total daily activity of upper limbs, which was measured by inertial sensors and the results of functional independence measures (FIM).
The use of HandTutor in occupational therapy with people after brain damage
Bartoňová, Eliška ; Oborná, Pavlína (advisor) ; Čábelková, Alžběta (referee)
This bachelor's thesis deals with the use of HandTutor technology in occupational therapy with people after brain damage. The theoretical part describes HandTutor technology, brain damage and subsequent occupational therapy intervention. HandTutor technology is presented as an active rehabilitating system of upper limb including diagnostic and therapeutic part. The practical part contains the aim of the thesis, research questions and the methodology of the research. In my research, the progress of therapies with HandTutor technology is presented by two case reports of people after brain damage. The result of the research is the record of the changes in the parameters measured by HandTutor technology. The changes are reflected in the charts and visual supplements. The conclusion summarises the responses of research questions describing also the problems which can occur while using this technology. This thesis serves as an introduction HandTutor technology, specifies its use in occupational therapy with people after brain damage and recommends futher research of the diagnostic data analysis in an objective evaluation. Key words: HandTutor occupational therapy brain damage upper limb objective evaluation
Kinect - utilising in the occupational therapy
Nushartová, Marie ; Oborná, Pavlína (advisor) ; Čábelková, Alžběta (referee)
The theme of this thesis is the use of Kinect in training of movements which are used in Activities of Daily Living (ADL) of patients with brain damage. Teoretical introduction is dedicated to analysing possible neurophysiological mechanisms which could be applied in rehabilitation with using of Kinect such as biofeedback, repetitive movements, complex paterns of movements. Training response was tested on the pilote sample of two patients: one with right-handed spastic hemiparesis after hemorragic stroke, the other with kvadruparesis, disability of low to medium-size of both superior limbs, more severe right, after craniocerebral trauma with multiple contuses of brain. Training was applied in series of six training days during several weeks. Development of results was expressed quantitatively using arithmetic averages achieved in particular days and variability was expressed by value their average absolute deviation. To compare development of training achievements and development of abilities fine and gross motor skills of patients was used Jebsen - Taylor Test. In the thesis are discused appropriate attributes of virtual reality to utilise in the occupational therapy and also possible problems and contraindication of some diagnoses simultaneously. Key words: Kinect, Motion capture, virtual...
