Modern technologies used in physiotherapy at children with cerebral palsy
Hoskovcová, Tereza ; Pánek, David (advisor) ; Pavlů, Dagmar (referee)
Title: Modern technologies used in physiotherapy at children with cerebral palsy Objectives: The goal of this diploma thesis is evaluate the effect of robotic and virtual therapy on motor functions of lower limbs at children with cerebral palsy. Furthermore, the work is focused on summarizing current knowledge about cerebral palsy, robotic and virtual technologies. Methods: The diploma thesis is processed as a literature review from available literary resources. First part of thesis contains all theoretical bases and knowledge's about cerebral palsy, robotic and virtual technologies use in physiotherapy lower limbs at children with this diagnosis. Second part has a descriptive - analytical character and contains analysis of studies, which was used treatment with robotic and virtual technologies. The thesis is concluded with a discussion, which focused mainly on three basic research questions of the diploma thesis. Results: A total of 8 randomized controlled trials that met the criteria for inclusion in this thesis were described. When making recommendations for using robotics and virtual technologies, is necessary to take into account the type of cerebral palsy, the degree of disability according to GMFCS, age, motor deficit and individual abilities and goals of the therapy. Studies show that the...
Robotic systems in neurorehabilitation specialized in the upper extremity by patients after stroke
Pokorná, Barbora ; Senohrábková, Eva (advisor) ; Muchová, Zuzana (referee)
OF BACHELOR THESIS Title of bachelors thesis: Robotic systems in neurorehabilitation specialized in the upper extremity by patients after stroke Abstract: This bachelors research describes robotic systems application in neurorehabilitation of the upper extremity in stroke patients. Acquired paresis of the upper extremity as a result of stroke is very frequent impairment what stimulates developing of new treatment possibilities of higher effectivity. The robotic therapy is one of them. Are the robotic systems really effective in treatment of upper arm impairment in stroke patients? This is the principal question of this bachelor's work. It consists of two parts. The first , theoretic, is based mainly on forein articles and researches regarding robotic systems. There were compared advantages and disadvantages of robotic systems, described different characteristics, and discussed economics and the effectivity rate, as it's the most controversial point, in chosed articles. And the second part, practical, is made of two case history where the robotic system Armeo®Spring was used as a treatment approach. The answer to the principal question was established according to results of this work. The robotic systems are effective in neurorehabilition of upper arms impairment in stroke patients. Key words:...
