The Use of the Neurac Method in Patients after Brain Damage
Divišová, Kamila ; Drábová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Pětioký, Jakub (referee)
This bachelor thesis investigates the Neurac method in patients with brain damage caused by cerebrovascular accidents, and their subsequent rehabilitation. The theoretical part of this work introduces different mechanism of brain damage with an emphasis on the ictus and the most widely used rehabilitation procedures. Furthermore, the Neurac method, the Redcord device as well as relevant clinical studies are described. The practical part of the thesis presents examination of two patients, a description of exercises on the Redcord apparatus and therapy procedures that patients underwent.

The Impact of Erigo Robotic System Therapy in Patients after Spinal Cord Injury
Tůmová, Kateřina ; Pětioký, Jakub (advisor) ; Janatová, Markéta (referee)
The Impact of Erigo Robotic System Therapy in Patients After Spinal Cord Injury Abstract: This bachelor thesis aims to shed light on the effects of Erigo robotic system therapy in patients after spinal cord injury. Currently, careful attention is devoted to research seeking new ways to cure or treat spinal cord injury. Even though we are just beginning to understand neuroregeneration processes, new rehabilitation robotic systems and devices are gradually starting to occupy a significant role especially in early rehabilitation after spinal cord injury. The first part of this thesis describes spinal cord injuries with a focus on health implications and complications the injured person has to come to terms with. Employing robot-assisted therapy in early rehabilitation stages can prevent a number of problems. By doing so, such therapy can improve the patients' functional condition, self-reliance their recovery and return to ordinary life. The use of robotic systems is becoming a standard in many rehabilitation facilities. This bachelor thesis will focus on the frequently used Erigo robotic system and on evaluating the effects of Erigo therapy. The thesis will describe the functions of the Erigo and its advantages. Moreover, several aspects of focus and evaluation criteria will be identified. These aspects will...

The Possibilities of Using Exoskeletal Suit Ekso GTTM in Physiotherapy with Spinal Cord Injury Patients
Smolej, Július ; Pětioký, Jakub (advisor) ; Slámová, Adéla (referee)
OF BACHELOR THESIS Autor: Július Smolej Vedoucí práce: Mgr. Jakub Pětioký, DiS. Title of bachelor thesis: The Possibilities of Using Exoskeletal Suit Ekso GTTM in Physiotherapy with Spinal Cord Injury Patients Abstract of bachelor thesis: This bachelor thesis is focused on how exoskeletal suit Ekso GTTM can be utilized in physical therapy with spinal cord injury patients during their rehabilitation stay in RÚ Kladruby. Theoretical part of the thesis is based on literature review and reflects issues of spinal injuries, their epidemiology, clinical manifestation, examination, separate phases of spinal damage, treatment and health consequences. Furthermore, the theoretical part of this thesis deals with possibilities of hi-tech robotic technologies and their usage in rehabilitation, especially focused on lower limbs, where exoskeletal suit Ekso GTTM belongs. The practical part of this bachelor thesis is divided into two sections. First section consists of patient's case studies using exoskeletal suit Ekso GTTM that are supposed to assess therapeutic benefits in use of this robotic machine. The second section contains evaluation of retrospectively gathered information from therapies undergone with Ekso GTTM since 2014 until 2019. Evaluation will be shown graphically and using excel tables. Key words:...

The relationship between orofacial asymmetries and spinal curves
Hajduková, Michaela ; Raška, Otakar (advisor) ; Pětioký, Jakub (referee)
Key words: temporomandibular joint, temporomandibular joint disorder, malocclusion, scoliosis, moiré, posture, spinal curves Goal: Our attempt is to determine whether subjects with pathologies in the orofacial area (malocclusion, TMJ disorders, jaw movement deviations) have higher prevalence of scoliosis or other spinal deviations than subjects without pathologies in the orofacial area. Methods: In 24 healthy young volunteers (2 men, 22 women; mean age 21,54 years) we measured following parameters of the orofacial area: occlusal parameters in static position (occlusal plane, midline deviation), position of the mandible (overjet, overbite) and also mandible movement parameters (protrusion, maximal mouth opening, mouth opening symmetry). Spinal parameters were measured using Video-Raster-Stereography device: Diers formetric 4D, a moiré topography based computerized system. We measured the scoliosis angle, kyphotic and lordotic angle, rotation of the vertebrae (maximal and mean), trunk inclination, trunk imbalance, fleche cervicale, fleche lombaire and also the amplitude of lateral deviations. To reveal possible relationships between parameters from the orofacial and spinal region Spearman's rank-order correlation or Mann-Whitney U test was performed. Results: Statistical analysis did not reveal any...

Screening of the Individual Physioterapeutic Unit in Patients with Central Hemiparesis Focused on the Time Subsidy of Individual Physioterapy and Repetition of Movements on the Individual Segments of Upper Limb during the Physioterapy
Kindlová, Michaela ; Pětioký, Jakub (advisor) ; Šebek, Milan (referee)
OF BACHELOR THESIS Author: Michaela Kindlová Supervisor: Mgr. Jakub Pětioký Title of bachelor thesis: Screening of Individual Physioterapeutic Unit in Patients with Central Hemiparesis Focused on the Time Subsidy of Individual Physiotherapy and Repetition of Movements on the Individual Segments of Upper Limb during the Physiotherapy. Abstrakt of bachelor thesis: An aim of a thesis is screening of individual conventional physiotherapeutic units and robotic-assisted rehabilitation. The screening of ergotherapy units was also included for a more comprehensive picture. The bachalor thesis is focused on upper limb therapy and the aim is to compare the intensity of the conventional therapy lead by therpist and intensity of robotic assisted rehabilitation lead by robotic system. Specifically, the time spent on upper limb training during therapy and the number of repetitive movements in each segment of the upper limb was compared. The bachelor thesis consists of two parts, theoretical and practical. In the theoretical part, which is written in the form of a literary research, the issue concerning a stroke disease is summarized. This includes, for example, etiopathogenesis, incidence of disease, stroke distribution, clinical picture and classical rehabilitation options such as Bobath's concept or...
