Multiple Sclerosis: Corticoid and Biological Therapy, Importance of Pedagogy in Rehabilitation
Rosová, Anna ; Ehler, Edvard (advisor) ; Pavlasová, Lenka (referee)
The submitted thesis deals with the theme of a neurodegenerative autoimmune disease, the sclerosis multiplex. Although this serious disease has become an object of intensive research in recent decades and there is an inexhaustible quantity of literature available, we haven't yet fully identified the causes of this disease as well as we haven't found such kind of effective treatment that would lead to the permanent recovery of patients. I focused my interest on two main spheres: first, the description and comparison of practices in terms of pharmacotherapy giving priority to its benefits to patients, second, the view of another important but not always appreciated part of therapy, physiotherapy or rehabilitation; the main point is studying of processes and actions from the pedagogical point of view.
Multiple Sclerosis and Pregnancy
Hanulíková, Petra ; Rob, Lukáš (advisor) ; Binder, Tomáš (referee) ; Krofta, Ladislav (referee)
Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disorder of the CNS that typically affects young women of childbearing age. Due to the international published data, safety for pregnant women with MS can be assumed. However, no study has been published in the Czech Republic to address the effect of MS on pregnancy and perinatal outcomes. Objective: Analysis of the clinical course of patients with MS during and after pregnancy, and perinatal outcomes in comparison with healthy pregnant women. Methods: A single centre prospective observational study in the period 2006-2015 was conducted. Complete data from 68 patients with MS were analyzed (85 deliveries) and were compared with a control cohort of 68 age- and parity - matched healthy pregnancies. Results: The comparison between relapse rate and EDSS before, during and after delivery showed no statistically significant difference (relapse in 7.4% and 9.5%, EDSS 1.27 and 1.49). Perinatal outcomes were comparable in both cohorts. The weight of newborns differed by 159 g, (p = 0.295), complications in pregnancy were represented in 16.2% in the group with MS and in 27.9% in controls (p = 0.295), caesarean section was performed in 16.2% in patients with MS and in 23.5% of controls (p = 0.629), 79.4% of patients with MS were breast-feeding. In the MS...

The influence of physiotherapy on improving general state of patients suffering from Multiple sclerosis
ČERVINSKÁ, Klára
The bachelor thesis summarizes present knowledge of the disease Multiple sclerosis and its ways of treatment. The aim of the thesis, is to build up a suitable complex physiotherapeutical treatment, which would have a positive effect on a general state of patients suffering from MS. The thesis consists of two parts. The first part is devoted to etiopathogenesis, symptoms of the illness, diagnostics, pharmacological therapy and the importace of rehabilitation treatment. The second experiential part contains a case study of two patients suffering from different forms of the illness. It describes their present health state, the course of the rehabilitation treatment and its evaluation. Furthermore performed examinations, medical history and a suggestion of a longterm rehabilitation treatment are also presented in this part. The research took place in the Multiple Sclerosis centre in Prague. The effect of the physical therapy was evaluated by measurement of physical condition and a kinesiological analysis. The thesis also involves a questionnaire in which the patients evaluate influence of physiotehrapy on their general state from their point of view. Rehabilitation has an effect on the state of patients particularly in correction of posture, breath stereotype and affecting balance. Physiotherapy helps the patients to influence some of the symptoms of the disease and therefore improve everyday-life activities. However the effect is only shortlasting. Consequently it is necessary to exercise on a long term basis and to adapt the therapy according to the progressive character of the disease.
Epidemiology of multiple sclerosis
FOŠUM, Pavel
There are approximately 2.5 million cases of multiple sclerosis [MS] in the world. Each year, around 10,000 new cases of MS are diagnosed. There are approximately 0.1%. in the Czech Republic and that means that there are approximately 15,000 people with this disease. Multiple sclerosis is a progressive neurological inflammatory disease of the central nervous system in pathogenesis. The auto-immune mechanisms are appliedinvolves; both the affect the myelin and damaged axons. This damage is responsible for the permanent disability of MS. The main objective of this thesis was to use quantitative research to describe the occurrence of MS in the Regions of South Bohemia and Usti, and within objective to estimate the true prevalence of multiple sclerosis in the South and the Usti Regions. MUDr. Príkaszký and I used the method of descriptive epidemiological studies on the technique of data collection, as well as the analysis and the comparison of two sources using the double-capture method. As a research area, we used a set of patients with multiple sclerosis. The data were gathered in two regions of the Czech Republic: Usti nad Labem Region and South Bohemia. We investigated the number of patients from neurologists and MS centers in both regions.There is also the data on health insurance included with the Ústí Region in this research. According to the data, we estimated the prevalence of neurologists in South Bohemia to be 79.20 per 100,000 people. The MS Center at the hospital in Ceske Budejovice has registered 512 patients: 388 women and 124 men. The values of the MS Centre in Ceske Budejovice received from the neurologists are a total of 882 patients, which is a prevalence of 138.6 patients per 100,000 of the population. Regarding the Usti Region, the prevalence reported by neurologists is 208.2 per 100 000 people. The MS Center at the hospital in Teplice, has registered 1139 sick 730 women and 409 men. According to health insurance data in their database, of 1187 people listed with a diagnosis of G.35, 333 are men and 854 are women. This represents an estimate of the prevalence 305/100000 of the people who are registered in the NGA. We calculated the prevalence of illnesses from those sources in both of these regions is higher than the general estimates. When comparing the data source of health insurance and the model file from the MS center of Ústí Region, we calculated the overall sensitivity of 91.7% within a health insurance group. The calculation of the estimated prevalence has been reached by using the method of double-capture of those sources that provided an estimate of 2,681 patients in the Usti Region. The models of this data are mainly demonstrated as a possible approach to the estimate of the prevalence of this chronic disease in the case of multiple sclerosis. The information has been obtained from the collection of data. The results of this study can be used by other workers who have the same objective as this study.
SUBJECTIVE VIEW ON QUALITY OF LIFE OF PEOPLE WITH MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS AT SAINT JOSEF´S HOUSE AT ŽIREČ.
KRÁLOVÁ, Inka
Sclerosis multiplex (disseminated) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system occuring to young people mostly. This is a diagnosis that changes a person{\crq}s life entirely. The people suffering from the disease gradually become fully dependent on the other people{\crq}s help. The disease is usually diagnosed at people at the age 20 {--} 40. Domov sv. Josefa (St. Joseph{\crq}s Hospice) in Žireč provides good conditions for dignified and full-value life of the ill people, and psychical support in their fight with the destiny. The hospice is the only of its kind in the Czech Republic though the number of applications for staying here is increasing and the capacity of the hospice is not sufficient. Most people with the diagnosis of sclerosis multiplex stay in seclusion; mostly they get divorced or stay with their elderly parents. Domov sv. Josefa offers the ill people the solution of their difficult life situation. In my work I found out patients{\crq} subjective opinions on the quality of their lives in the hospice and how the people with sclerosis disseminated live in the ward of permanent residence in Domov sv. Josefa. The essay should help to increase the awareness of Domov sv. Josefa because I believe the care facilities of the kind should be more numerous in the Czech Republic. This is a way how to solve the difficult situation of many people suffering from sclerosis disseminated and how to allow them to have dignified, active and full-value lives.
