Respiratory and postural therapy in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
RATHOVÁ, Monika
This bachelor thesis is focused on respiratory and postural therapy in patients that have been diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD is a serious inflammatory disease that affects lung tissue. This disease is a combination of chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Characteristic symptoms are cough, shortness of breath and mucus congestion. The theoretical part focuses on respiration and primarily respiration kinesiology. The next main chapter focuses on COPD where prevalence, aetiology and pathophysiology information are stated. After that, COPD, comorbidity and other symptoms are described. This chapter is followed by an extensive chapter focused on respiratory physiotherapy that analyses therapeutic techniques. The practical part consists of described methodology and research. The research is lead in qualitative form. The research file composes of three probands that have been diagnosed with COPD. The therapy was conducted individually as respiratory and postural therapy. In the final phase, original and final kinesiological analyses have been compared.
The possibilities of physical therapy in patients with Pierre Robin sequence
Sedinová, Monika ; Smolíková, Libuše (advisor) ; Hoffmannová, Eva (referee)
Orofacial clefts are among the most common craniofacial deformities and could be associated with serious anomalies. The rare condition - Pierre Robin sequence is classified into these deformities, due to presence of isolated cleft palate. Pierre Robin sequence is defined as a triad of symptoms: micrognathia, glossoptosis and airway obstruction. These symptoms were described in 1923 by French stomatologist Pierre Robin. In 70s the original name" Pierre Robin syndrome" was changed in "Pierre Robin sequence" because of the sequence of defects development. Today, many authors use modified definition of the sequence. They add the "U" or "V" shaped cleft palate and feeding disorders to original triad of symptoms. Pierre Robin sequence is usually classified into 3 groups: isolated form, syndromatic form and form additional to other malformations without knowing syndrome diagnosis. The treatment therapy in patients with Pierre Robin sequence is divided into conservative or invasive approach. Choosing the approach needs cooperation of many specialists, who should be part of multidisciplinary team. Although it is not usual or frequent, the physical therapist should be involved. The Physical therapist should be able to contribute to more complex approach and to provide more superior care to patients with Pierre Robin...
