Speech fluency and motor system relations as the outcome of physiotherapy in comprehensive stuttering treatment
Hebík, Štěpán ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Maršáková, Kateřina (referee)
Tittle: Speech fluency and motor system relations as the outcome of physiotherapy in comprehensive stuttering treatment Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to summarize the accessible literary sources about functional and structural etiology of developmental dysfluency and its effects on motor system. The next aim of this paper is to research current position of physiotherapy in comprehensive stuttering therapy. Methods: The thesis used literature research method, the specific criteria for the selection of literary sources were stated. The first part contains theoretical ground regarding general issues of dysfluency. The second, descriptive and analytical part contains several chapters describing many studies dealing with functional and organ cause of stuttering, features of stutter motor system of stutterers and the current state of physiotherapy in the issue of stuttering. Results: The thesis points out the fundamental meaning of motor system, particularly motor planning in the ethiopathogenesis of stuttering. Certain variations in the structure and function of the CNS of stuttering people have been described. These deviations are specifically manifested on the motor system effectors. The research shows that physical therapy in the complex treatment of stuttering has no clearly defined role so...

Correction of movement stereotypes within the therapy of bronchial asthma
HEBÍK, Štěpán
The aim of this bachelors thesis is the description of existence, corrective measures and causal mechanisms standing behind pathological movement programs among asthmatics. Moreover, it focuses on finding incorrect movement programs with particular asthma bronchiale patients. Subsequently, the erroneous programs are altered through special therapy to moderate the impact and to minimize the complications connected with the disease. The paper is divided into several intertwined sections, including the comprehensive depiction of asthma bronchiale and its impact on the human movement apparatus. In the following sections, asthmatic movement programs are studied, while identifying the mechanisms of their creation and systematic remedy. The realization of the aforementioned aims begins in the theoretical part of this work by processing the expert information gathered from dedicated literature on the topic. Research was done with the help of qualitative methods drawn up from four specific case studies. Furthermore, special examination methods, spirometer measurement, and short ČIPA (disease control) questionnaires were used to collect even more relevant information. In the same time, subjective feelings of the patients were taken in regard in the 8 weeks in which they were subjected to the therapy at Poliklinika Jih Medipont s.r.o. The corrective measures of the programmes were chosen according to the needs of the individual patients. Each of them reacted differently to the methods and processes altering the movement programmes. The results have shown that correcting the movement programmes may result in improving asthma control and reducing the subjective manifestations of the disease, and, at the same time, increase the spirometric values concerning the obstruction of respiratory passages. This work can be used as a tool for future physiotherapy students, in practice by clinical workers, but it can also be purposeful as an educational material for asthma patients.
