The influence of rhytmical movemet on patients with Parkinson's disease
MYSLIVCOVÁ, Anna
This bachelor thesis deals with the issue of a progressive neurological disease called Morbus Parkinson, which is translated to Czech as Parkinson's disease. This disease irreversibly damages the central nervous system and cannot be cured yet. It is only possible to alleviate the symptoms by pharmacological treatment and improve the quality of life of the patients with the help of rehabilitation. The aim of the work is to describe the main issues of the disease, to clarify the possibilities of physiotherapy and to design a rhythmic exercise unit on the basis of which educational videos for home exercise of patients with Parkinson's disease were created. The first part summarizes general knowledge about Parkinson's disease, history, development and rehabilitation. Most of the work deals with the research itself, which was attended by 3 clients with Parkinson's disease. The individual case reports consist of an initial entrance examination, which also includes, for example, tests evaluating stability and gait. This is followed by two months, during which the exercises took place once a week and then the current state was compared with the results of the initial examination. The studies found and the subjective evaluation of probands show that it is appropriate to include rhythmic exercises in the rehabilitation. Due to the state of emergency lasting continuously from 5th October 2020, it was not possible to conduct group exercises, so the exercises were conducted with two patients online, which allowed patients to exercise safely at home and were not at risk of infection. One patient underwent exercises normally after loosening of the regulations issued by the government. The work can serve as a source of information for the lay and professional public and methods of solution can be used in physiotherapeutic practice.

The effect of a regular exercise on the health of patients with Parkinson´s disease
DUBNOVÁ, Veronika
The bachelor thesis deals with the influence of regular exercise on the health of patients suffering from Parkinson's disease. This disease still remains an incurable disease that affects the human central nervous system and leads to its irreversible damage. Until now, the treatment of the disease has only made it possible to alleviate individual symptoms in the long term and thus maintain the patient's quality of life. An important part from the early stages of the disease is not only a pharmacological treatment but also a rehabilitation. The theoretical part of this work deals with a summary of information about Parkinson's disease, its origin, clinical picture, diagnosis and treatment options. The practical part of the work was processed by the method of qualitative research, which was done on the basis of an input and output examination, medical history taking, an interview and an evaluation of patients' ability to walk. The obtained data were compiled in the form of case reports. The study group consisted of 3 patients with a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, who regularly attended group exercises once a week. The first goal was to evaluate the patient's condition during regular group exercise and the condition after 8 weeks without a group exercise. The second goal was to create an exercise unit for patients suffering from Parkinson's disease. Due to the small number of probands studied, it is certainly not possible to state whether the regular exercise once a week was sufficient in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. However, it was obvious that the patients felt good during the exercise, it positively affected their psychosocial condition and also their condition. Although I did not come to clear conclusions, I presume that the chosen therapy was beneficial.

Effect of excercise on postural stability parameters in senior's age
Kratochvílová, Hana ; Zahálka, František (advisor) ; Šteffl, Michal (referee)
Title: Effect of excercise on postural stability parameters in senior's age Objectives: The aim of this study is to assess the effects of a regular group exercise on specific parameters of postural control in seniors. The intervention was composed based on a literary review and consisted of strength, flexibility and balance exercises. Methods: The sample consisted of nine women older than 65 years. To evaluate the differences in selected parameters of static postural control before and after intervention the pressure plates RS Footscan® Balance 7.6 second generation (RSscan International, Belgium) were used. Results: All og the measured parameters of static postural control improved, particularly when standing without visual control. The results can be helpful in planning of preventive exercise programs for seniors. Key words: Postural control, seniors, group exercise, balance exercise

Possibilities of physiotherapy at Morbus Parkinson
VALÁŠKOVÁ, Terezie
Parkinson disease is considered as unhealable. This progressive disease is only possible to slow down thanks to usage of right cure for clinical symptoms and this way prolong life of patients. Because of this is therapy aimed at clinical symptoms as tremor, rigidity, hypokinesis, bradykinesis and postural instability. The most often chosen type of therapy is pharmacological, but internal part of the therapy is physiotherapy as well. First target of this thesis was To chart possibilities of physiotherapy at Morbus Parkinson. This target is described in theoretical part in subchapter 1.10 Possibilities of physiotherapy. Second target was Suggestion and evaluation of therapy at patients at Morbus Parkinson. Practical part of my bachelor thesis was processed by method of qualitative research at 8 patients and this data was processed by form of case reports. Therapy was done nine times at group therapy since January until April 2017. For patients was designed therapy where were used some of possibilities of physiotherapy, that are mentioned in theoretical part. This therapy was evaluated by using results of initial and exit examination. There was no big change in patients' condition during therapy. But is important to say that there is nobody threatened by risk of fall. This thesis can be beneficial especially for patients at Parkinson disease and their close relatives. It can be beneficial for physiotherapists who organize group therapies as well.

The effect of fitness exercises on physical fitness level of seniors
Ondrášková, Valerie ; Demeková, Júlia (advisor) ; Kálal, Jan (referee)
Functional body condition of senior is important for preserving his independence, mobility and overall for his better quality of living. This paper tries to investigate influence of "classical" fitness exercise and exercise with DNS components on the functional body condition of examined senior. This paper is also comparing, whether is one of the exercises more efficient. For this fitness program have attended 32 probands older 60 years (control group 17, DNS group 15). After physical examination of their functional body condition by The Senior Fitness Test Battery, they have attended 6 weeks training program (2 times a week, 60 minutes), followed by the control test. In this paper we found out statistically significant improvement in body condition in both groups and from the result implies, that both types of exercises are effective to improve body condition of seniors. However, between these groups, we were not able to prove any significant difference. Then we examined on the smaller group of probands (7 in each group) influence of these exercises programmes on improvement of static postural stability, measured by Balance Error Scoring System. In this test we did not prove any statistically significant difference between the control group and the DNS group neither. The main finding of this paper...

Redcord on a wheelchair
MENDLOVÁ, Olga
Diploma thesis deals with a suspension system of cords and slings called Redcord. Redcord helps physiotherapists as their auxiliary third hand. Redcord has a wide range of application. The main goal of the thesis is to develop and test training units in Redcord for spinal patients on a wheelchair in the Rehabilitation Institute Kladruby. This goal was successfully realized and the group exercise in Redcord were implemented between the procedures of the rehabilitation program. The study also discusses the effectiveness of exercise in Redcord, the evaluation of different dosage of load and monitoring the progression of a group training. The group exercise in Redcord for spinal patients on a wheelchair is effective, because it allows the same exercise training for patients with different level of spinal cord lesion and different stability of the trunk. This is possible thanks to the various dosage of load in Redcord. The feedback from spinal patients has been verified by subjective evaluation in the form of a questionnaire supplemented with a interview.
