Self-sufficiency and self-care when applying myoprothesis
Pachlopníková, Andrea ; Černý, Pavel (advisor) ; Drnková, Jana (referee)
Title: Self-sufficiency and self-care when applying myoprothesis Objectives: The main objective of this work is to present the theoretical summary of the amputation problematic, followed by the further prosthetic usage of myoprothesis and the principles of controlling the myoprothesis. Key is the methodical process of learning how to use myoprothesis, in terms of own self- sufficiency and self-care in the daily activities. Methods: I used the method of literary research in this work. I drew upon the knowledge gained throughout the study of available Czech and foreign technical literature, from internet sources and materials obtained in prosthetic companies, which I visited during my practical internships, mainly through the personal interviews and consultations with prosthetists and ergotherapists. Results: The results provide information on the issue of training activities of daily living with myoprothesis. Keywords: myoprothesis, self-sufficiency, self-care, grip, amputation, prothesis

Occupational therapist's methodics of work for patients with myoelectric prosthesis
Hoidekrová, Kristýna ; Svěcená, Kateřina (advisor) ; Jeníček, Jakub (referee)
The aim of this study was to develop methodics of occupational therapy for patients with moelectric prosthesis, which is used by patients with amputation of upper limbs as well as patients with congenital problems. In the Czech republic there are no complex methodics about occupational therapy and myoelectric prosthesis, despite the huge mount of foreign studies of this topic. Myoelectric prosthesis uses the principle of sensing myoelectrical signals which are then transformed to the motor output in the terminal portion of the prosthesis. Occupational therapy intervention begins at the preprosthetic phase, the occupational therapist assesses the general potential for the use of myoelectric prosthesis and picks up myoelectric signals from the stump. In interprosthetic phase occupational therapist is dedicated to the training of activities of daily living with myoelectric prosthesis and training residual stump on the basis of myotest. The phase after prosthetic content of occupational therapy evaluation and assessment, which focus on patients ability of myoelectric control and prosthesis involvement in activities of daily living and training of grip. Within the training of grip, occupational therapist is dedicated to training proper grip within the pace, grip strength and targeted movements. The...

Creation and Application of the grip test in patients after stroke
Filipová, Kateřina ; Svěcená, Kateřina (advisor) ; Svobodová, Tereza (referee)
The main aim of this bachelor's work was to create a grip test wich could be afterwards applied on patients after a stroke. An easy and time undemanding test was created whose evaluating standart is the number of achieved points. This test is used to find out the patient's functional condition in a grip area. It tests five kinds of grips. There evaluated stages of reaching, gripping, holding and releasing in each grip. The bachelor's work is divided into two parts: practical and theoretical. The theoretical part describes not only the impact of a stroke but olso the impact on the upper limb, hand and its functions and grips. It also describes testing and assessment. The practical part describes the time necessary to do the project, its realisation and application of the grip test on patients after stroke. This part also shows the results of testing. Key words: Stroke Assessment of hand grip Upper limb Grip test Grip

Using the Frenchay Arm Test in monitoring the effect of botulinum toxin in spastic patients after brain damage
Medková, Lia ; Angerová, Yvona (advisor) ; Čábelková, Alžběta (referee)
bachelor's thesis: Bachelor's thesis deals with the use of Frenchay Arm Test to study the effect of botulinum toxin to patients with spasticity after brain damage. A question is raised, whether Frenchay Arm Test, is test of self-sufficiency and hand function, is useful for monitoring the effects of botulinum toxin in these patients. The theoretical part explains the physiology of human movement and the consequences of brain damage to motoric. It deals with the increased stretch muscle, i.e. spasticity of patients after brain damage. Furthermore, it introduces the theory of application of botulinum toxin, which in small amounts affects spasticity and helps promote self-sufficiency of a patient. Frenchay Arm Test is presented as appropriate diagnostic method and benefits of applying this method by Occupational therapist are described. In the practical part, the Frenchay Arm Test is applied to two patients prior to application of botulinum toxin, month after and three months after application. The results are evaluated based on modified Frenchay scale and complemented by labels marking individual acts. The emphasis lies on the overall rehabilitation of the patient, which is considered a key to the successful treatment. Keywords: Spasticity, Botulinum, Frenchay Arm Test, Brain Damage, Occupational...

Title: Stereognosis assessment in the hands area of physiotherapy students. Objectives of work: The main objective of this dissertation is an evaluation of stereognosis functions of hands and also the influence from the practise of palpation skills on the stereognosis at a group of thirty physiotherapy students from the first-year bachelor's degree during two measurements at an interval of six months. Next aim is to compare results of these measurements and to evaluate potential changes. Methods: This dissertation work was made by form of clinical study. The evaluation criterion was time and perfection in performed tests. For the assessment of hand stereognosis at the research group were used 4 simple tests without using sight: test by Petrie - sort the balls by size, to recognise a foam made letters and to determine the roughness of sandpaper. Results: The results show that during the study of physiotherapy at students there has been a slight development in the stereognosis functions. The influence of somatosensory learning during the six months period helped to reduce the number of errors which have been made by probands while taking the assigned tests. Results indicate that regular and careful practise of palpation ability has a particular influence for development and improvement of...
