Stroke in childhood - the selected possibilities of physiotherapy as a part of a comprehensive treatment
Vitvarová, Anna ; Dvořáková, Marcela (advisor) ; Tetřevová, Lenka (referee)
Stroke and cerebrovascular disease are already amongst the top ten causes of death in childhood and are probably increasing in prevalence. This work summarizes available knowledge about development, etiology and prevalence of strokes in childhood, it deals with risk factors, describes disorders associated with ischaemic or haemorrhagic stroke, and focuses on clinical presentation and the differences in the presentation of stroke in adults. The work shortly describes the most common approaches of management in acute strokes. More than a half of the children have residual motor, cognitive or senzitive deficit, so this work is concerned with possibilities of therapeutic rehabilitation, especially with various methods of physiotherapy usable to treat this disease. The thesis is supplemented by three case reports, which show the variability of stroke causes and describe individual course of physiotherapy. The case reports include simple questionnaires about the quality of life.

Physiotherapy for patients with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis
JINDROVÁ, Kateřina
ADEM is the inflammatory demyelinating disease of central nervous system which affects mainly white matter cerebrospinal. This bachelor thesis deal with problems of the acute disseminated encephalomyelitis and appropriate approaches of the physiotherapy approaches. For the purpose of this diagnosis is to give a comprehensive view about the disease. Question of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis is nowadays increasingly topical because the incidence of this disease increases every year not only in the world, but also in the Czech Republic. The issue of children is described in detail and subsequently divided. The main stated aim of my thesis is to explore the issue of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, physiotherapy and process approaches at selected patients with this diagnosis realize defined physiotherapy processes. The theoretical part focuses on the incidence of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis in the Czech Republic and in the world, disease characteristics, causes of its formation, progression, diagnosis and prognosis, and not least the many options in the treatment of diseases such as neurorehabilitation, pharmacological, spa treatment etc. Methodological part is processed using qualitative research. Data collection is carried out observation, interview, analysis of medical records, kinesiology and as neurological examinations is used video and photographic documentation of individual respondents. The research sample includes 2 respondents from Arpida Centers in Ceske Budejovice. Examination and treatment was carried out for 5 months in Arpida areas. To evaluate changes in the patient after treatment is performed input and output kinesiology and neurological examination. One kinesiology examination is completed by testing for posturograf from Copany Neurocom that the patient has received at the beginning of therapy and after its completion. The main research question was determinated in accordance with the objective and qualitative research. The research question was: What are the changes in kinesiological examination occurs after physical therapy in patients with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis? Physiotherapy primarily affected the stereotype of breathing, better stability of scapulas, improved walking stereotypes and generally improved postural stability in stance. Physiotherapy as itself may well affect some degrees of clinical symptoms of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. It helps improve the quality of life, physical or mental state of a person, helping to improve self-care and improve its team-integration.
