Use of myofunctional therapy in people with communication disability
Janečková, Sandra ; Komorná, Marie (advisor) ; Mlčková, Marie (referee)
The topic of this thesis is discussion of usage of myofunctional therapy on persons with communicative disorders. The main goal is to map the extent and possibilities of this therapy in speech therapy practice. The theoretical part deals with physiology and patophysiology of breathing, sucking, swallowing and the orofacial system. Further, in connection with myofunctional therapy it discusses its historical development, methodical approaches, utilities, therapeutical benefits and possibilities of education on this field. The empirical part contains a quantitative investigation, which analyses the extent and usage possibilities of this therapy by speech-language pathologists in the Czech Republic. Based on the data obtained by a questionnaire distributed to speech-language pathologists it can be stated, that about 20 % of the respondents do not use the myofunctional therapy in practice, while those (with one exception) never took part on an expert training. The offer of the trainings is rated as insufficient. The myofunctional therapy can be used on persons with orofacial disorders regardless of age or communicative disorder. KEYWORDS: myofunctional therapy, communicative disorder, swallowing, dysphagia, bite disorders, orofacial area

Nováková, Kateřina ; Bitnar, Petr (advisor) ; Roubíčková, Lenka (referee)
Stroke is the most comman cause of the speech disorders in adults. Dysarthria, as a motor speech disorder, is one of them. The treatement is based not only on vocal and articulatory exercices, but it requires the complex rehabilitation treatement. The benefit of the physiotherapeutic intervention beside speech therapy might be large. The treatement of the muskuloskeletal system allows to see the orofacial disorders in the context of the posture of the whole body. This work wants to make a view on the process of speech production and to describe relationship of the musculoskeletal system and speech. This work also summarises the basic informations about pathogenesis of dysarthria and particularly about the treatement. The swallowing disorders are also very comman complication of the stroke and occur very often with dysarthria. The aim of this work is to describe the specific role of the physiotherapy in the treatement of dysarthria and look for some possibility of the cooperation between physiotherapist and clinical speech therapiste. The form of the work is the research with case history. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
