Physiotherapy for people with cerebral palsy from 15 to 30 years old
ŠKOPKOVÁ, Eva
For my bachelor thesis I chose topic Physiotherapy of Persons between fifteen and thirty Years of Age Suffering Cerebral Palsy. Number of patients with this disorder is still increasing, but since 50s of the 20th century neonatal care began to become better. Thanks to this improvement in medical care number of saved newborns, who would have earlier died because of the consequences of prematureness or diseases, is now higher. These children are often disabled by cerebral palsy. Cerebral palsy is an untreatable disease, whose displays can be influenced only by a well chosen therapy. Bachelor thesis has two basic parts. The first one is theoretical, which is divided into a general and special part. In the general part, I focused on the sum of theoretical knowledge about cerebral palsy, I paid attention to the characteristics of the disease, incidence, etiology, pathological anatomy and to the classification of cerebral palsy. Then I focused on the diseases associated with cerebral palsy. I describe physiotherapy of cerebral palsy patients with focus on reflexive locomotion in the special part of my bachelor thesis. The aim of my bachelor thesis is to summarize knowledge about cerebral palsy. Considering that one of the basic features of the treatment is physiotherapy, I devoted my attention to the most usually used methods in the treatment of cerebral palsy. The theoretical part is concerned with methods of reflex-locomotion (Vojtova metoda), of Redcord ? therapy and by the concept of Mr. and Mrs.Bobaths. In the practical part of my thesis I made a quality research, where I specified goals of my work, offered description of methodology, characteristics of a file, and I made three casuistries. A part of the casuistries were anamneistic data and making of preliminary and output exploration. These explorations included objective general assessment, establishing locomotive state according to professor Vojta, exploration of locomotive abilities and goniometric explorations too. All persons went through classification of spasticity according to Ashworth´s measures and exploration of shorten muscles was also done. Research was made in the ARPIDA centre in České Budějovice, it took three months (March, April and June/2013) ? investigation of one patient of all three took circa one month, in which 9 therapies were done. The aim of practical part is to bring physiotherapical plan for observed patients with cerebral palsy. Results show that short-termed treatment had positive effect on health state of all three observed patients. The most affected areas were stability, correction of axial organ, but hypertonus of muscles and empowerment of weakened muscles also became better. The bachelor thesis can be used as a source of information for orientation in the topic of cerebral palsy by students of physiotherapy, but can also serve as an educative material for patients between fifteen and thirty years of their age and by their parents. Thesis could also be an inspiration for physiotherapists, who could think about their own treatment therapies for patients with cerebral palsy with the usage of not so known method Redcord?.

Physiotherapy for children threatened by the developing CP in the 1 year of life
ŠPIKOVÁ, Alžběta
In my bachelor thesis I have dealt with the problematic therapy of children with cerebral palsy. The aim has been defined as a presentation of therapeutic methods used at children endangered by cerebral palsy in the first year of life and the determination of the time aspect of the therapy. In the theoretical part I have dealt with the topic of psychomotor development of a child and the facts related to coming down with cerebral palsy, that includes its definition, causes of development, types and diagnosis. Since the most widely used method in the Czech Republic for children with cerebral palsy is Vojta´s reflex locomotion, the aim of the research part was to present this method in more detail and to find out experience with its use. The respondents were represented by 28 parents of children afflicted by cerebral palsy, who are treated in special diagnostic Center. This part of the work is methodologically based on the principles of qualitative research. Inquiry method has been used, employing semi-structured interview. The answers to questions demonstrate that an early diagnosis of the disease and an immediate institution of treatment is the main necessary condition for reaching optimal outcomes of the treatment. According to the research, the efficiency of the treatment also depends on its frequency, the expert guidance of professional physiotherapists for parents, their comprehension and conviction that the therapy will be successful. The investigation further showed that parents of children with cerebral palsy tried other therapeutic methods than Vojta´s reflex locomotion, but for lack of cooperation of the child, negligible results of other therapies or poor availability of their parents completed the application. The research findings also showed that improvement, which in practice Vojta´s reflex locomotion in their children diagnosed with cerebral palsy occurs, the main reason for this therapeutic method remain and will continue to apply.

Suddenly you can find yourself fastened in a wheel chair e.g. as a result of a car accident or a dive. Then it is important to have someone who will offer a helping hand. People are social beings. They are humanized and socialized within the human society. The same can be said about the disabled. Therefore their social position and recognition as well as their roles ranked in the society are very important. A crucial means in this situation is the system of compact convalescence.

As the essential methods I have selected unconcerned observation, non-standard interview and the content data analysis of the medical and psychological documents. The main aim was to obtain the essential information on researched individuals in relation to their developments that depend on the stationary activities. The interviews were conducted with the researched individuals, employees, parents of the individuals and they are evaluated for each group. The target file was formed of 5 individuals from the stationary Úsměv for persons with mental and combined handicaps older than 15 years in Třebíč with DMO. On the basis of the pieces of knowledge I have created the hypothesis: {\clqq}Everyday, systematic and regular visits of the stationary client and usage of all activities it has offered can help to develop the personality, integrate the client into the society, obtain self-sufficiency, development of rough and fine motoric in the area of clients with mental and combined handicap and primarily with DMO.`` The results of my research confirmed that there doesn{\crq}t exist one concrete activity that would help in the client{\crq}s personality development but the complex of all activities provided by the stationary can help them and the regular contact with people out of the home environment can help with their integration into the society. Necessity of the long-term planning of the personality development of each client came out of the research and keeping of the detailed documentation about the development of their abilities and skills.

Possibilities to use the canistherapy for children with special educational needs in the rehabilitation centre for people with disabilities of ARPIDA, o.s.
MEZEROVÁ, Jana
This bachelor thesis is focused on possibilities to use the canistherapy in the centre of ARPIDA, o.s. An aim of the research was to find out an effectiveness of the canistherapy for children with special educational needs in the context of a comprehensive rehabilitation system. To collect data, I chose following methods: a direct participant observation, an uncontrolled interview and a content analysis of the data collection. I led interviews with physiotherapists, a psychologist, a head of the day care centre and with parents of the children from the research sample. The observed sample consisted of four children with special educational needs aged 11, 14, 15 a 21 years. All the children attended the day care centre of ARPIDA, o.s. Children´s case studies, an actual course of the canistherapy including a picture file, expressions of individual experts including an evaluation of the effectiveness of the canistherapy at each child with the special educational needs, are recorded in the practical part of my bachelor thesis. The most effective method at the children with the cerebral palsy is an AAT method in the form of a positioning. The effectiveness of the canisterapy was recorded here mainly in the motor area. The most significant indicator of the effectiveness of the canistherapy at those children was releasing of their spastic muscles. Results of the observation then confirmed positive emotional moods of children during the canistherapy. At a child with ADHD syndrome the AAA method was used, through which it came, during the canistherapy, to an improvement of the ability to concentrate an attention and to an overall pacification. The effectiveness of the canistherapy was evident even in the area of the fine motor and communication abilities of children. I suppose that findings of the thesis can become a guidance and an inspiration for more frequent visits of future canistherapeutic teams, which will decide to work with children in the centre of ARPIDA.
