Bárta, Tomáš ; Reckziegelová, Petra (advisor) ; Dědková, Miriama (referee)
Title: Case study of physical therapy treatment of ischemic stroke patient with right- sided hemiparesis Objectives: The purpose of this bachelor thesis was to process theoretical information about the diagnosis and to create case study of the ischemic stroke patient with right- sided hemiparesis. Summary: This bachelor thesis deals with stroke and is formed of theoretical general and practical special part. The general part includes the definition of stroke, anatomy of blood supply to the brain, types of stroke, stroke assumptions and its prevention, and post-stroke rehabilitation possibilities using physiotherapeutic methods and procedures applied depending on the stage of the disease. The special part describes the methodology of the thesis and contains a case study of the ischemic stroke patient with right-sided hemiparesis. The case study includes anamnesis, initial kinesiological analysis, course of performed therapies and final kinesiological analysis with evaluation of the therapeutic effect. Data for the processing of the special part of the theses were obtained within the continuous professional experience at the Rehabilitation Clinic of the FNKV during the period from 11-1-2021 to 5-2-2021. Keywords: ictus, cerebral infarction, stroke, cerebrovascular accident, cerebrovascular ischemia,...
Use of a visual biofeedback in the movement patterns recovery by patients with the central paresis
Gueye, Tereza ; Angerová, Yvona (advisor) ; Smrčka, Václav (referee) ; Kozler, Petr (referee)
We evaluated the effectiveness of two virtual reality therapies (VRT) with visual biofeedback, Armeo Spring® upper limb exoskeleton (Armeo) and Homebalance® interactive system (Homebalance), in early post-stroke rehabilitation. Using a randomized controlled study design, participants within 30 days after stroke with arm paresis (Armeo study) or with balance problem (Homebalance study) were assigned either to the respective intervention group (Armeo IG n=25; mean age 66.5 years, and Homebalance IG n=25; mean age 69.6 years) performing VRT instead of conventional physiotherapy or to the control group (Armeo CG, n=25, mean age 68.1 years, and Homebalance CG, n=25, mean age 65.9 years) having conventional physiotherapy only. Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Functional Independence Measure (FIM), Fugl Mayer Assessment-Upper Extremity Scale (FMA-UE), Modified Rivermead Mobility Index (m-RIM) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) were performed before and after the 3-week therapy with 12 therapies. Results of participants <65 and ≥65 years old were compared. Acceptance of both VRTs was evaluated by self-rated questionnaire. In the Armeo study, paretic upper arm function improved significantly in both IG and CG groups, the improvement in FMA-UE was significantly higher in Armeo IG as compared to CG (p=0.02)...
