Reactions of cardiovascular system to locomat therapy in patients with lesion of the spinal cord
 Stráníková, Kateřina ; Radvanský, Jiří (advisor) ; Kříž, Jan (referee)
Introduction - This thesis focuses on the reaction of cardiovascular system to Lokomat therapy in patients with lesion of the spinal cord. It observes reaction of the heart rate and systolic blood pressure and compares with the cardiovascular response to the exercise on an upper body ergometer. Methods - We recruited 25 patients with spinal cord lesion under Th 5 and 4 patients with lesion above Th 5. The blood pressure was measured. The heart rate was measured by by ambulatory blood pressure monitor and an auscultatory method using a mercury manometer and a stethoscope a sporttester. Patients were measured during the Locomat therapy and the exercise on an upper body ergometer during the 6-minute arm test. Results - The parameters of systolic blood pressure and heart rate had a tendency to increase with the peak in 25th minute of the therapy. There was no significant difference between the patients with lesion under or above Th5. The parameters of heart rate were significantly higher on the upper body ergometer than on Lokomat. Conclusion - The Lokomat therapy does have a positive influence to cardiovascular system of patients with complete or incomplete spinal cord injury. When using this approach, the most important benefit is the possibility to activate all parts of body. Keywords: spinal cord injury,...

Influence of Lokomat on the cardiovascular system in patients with spinal cord lesions
 Stráníková, Kateřina ; Schreier, Bronislav (advisor) ; Špaňhelová, Šárka (referee)
The aim of this theses is to summarize some informations concerning to the problematic of cardiovascular system in patients with spinal cord lesions and to take into consideration the impact that training with the Lokomat using body-weight support and movable walkway, has in organism. The practical part of this work consists of heart rate and blood pressure measurements, provided during therapy using Lokomat to tetraparetics and paraparetics pacients. Heart rate increases paralelly with the in creasing intensity of exercise and stabilizes approximately after 5 minutes. This suggests that therapy using Lokomat is a dynamic physical activity and can be used to improve the rehabilitation process and condition of the patient generally. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
