The impact of asthma on children's incorrect body posture
KORDOVSKÁ, Kateřina
This bachelor thesis deals with the relationship between asthma bronchial and a defective posture at children. Bronchial asthma is a chronic respiratory disease which incidence is still rising. One of the reasons is a growing number of children suffering from allergies. Their current role in the wrong lifestyle plays its part, too. During the attack, bronchial asthma causes narrowing of the respiratory tract which leads to increased breathing requirements. Some troubles persist even during attacks at some children who suffer with asthma. These increased breathing demands overload the auxiliary breathing muscles over a long period of time and it leads to a change of the breathing stereotype. Changes in the breathing stereotype are linked to problems such as a poor function of the diaphragm, which has impacts not only on the respiratory function but also the postural function. All of this leads to various muscle imbalances. And that's what we're getting to the issue of faulty posture. One of the goals was to find out and describe the relationship between asthma bronchial and faulty posture. In the theoretical part, the bachelor thesis deals with the description of asthma bronchial, its causes, symptoms, diagnostics and therapy. There is also physiotherapydescribed, suitable for bronchial asthma, which was one of the goals of my bachelor thesis, and various breathing aids. The third objective was to set up an exercise unit suitable for children with asthma bronchial, whose exercises would also have influence ontheir faulty posture. An exercise unit is a part of the attachments. In the practical part, I have described three case reports, where the probands were children of pre-school and younger school age. Asthma bronchial had been diagnosed at these individuals. I have described not only their examination but also their work which differs from working with adults in some respects. Therapies were going on from November 2016 to March 2017 irregularly, but the individualshad their task of practicing at home under the supervision of trained parents.
