Design of Hearing Aids in LabVIEW
Macíček, Ondřej ; Tannenberg, Milan (referee) ; Sekora, Jiří (advisor)
This thesis contains the block diagram of hearing aid, anatomy description of human hearing system and description of most important physical values in this problematics of hearing and sound. There are analyzed several types of hearing tests for diagnosis of the hearing loss level and some types of algorithms, which fit the frequency characteristic of patient's hearing loss too. Further this thesis contains interactive program of hearing aid, which has implemented equations for sound equalization.

Design of hearing aid
Svoboda, Adam ; Janoušek, Oto (referee) ; Kolářová, Jana (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with the physiology of the auditory system and defects that cause temporary or complete deafness. It was created program in Matlab, which allows modification of the speech signal to simulate hearing loss and subsequent multi-channel amplification, presenting function of the digital hearing aid. It also deals with distribution of hearing aids according to the material and software and there is dismantled some modern systems from Siemens and functions that may include hearing aids.

The specialized social consultancy in sphere of hearing like a implement of improvement in social function
ENTLICHEROVÁ, Ivana
In my thesis I explain the basic terms in the field of hearing impairment. One of my topics is what is for hearing impairment people specialist social consulting and social functioning. I divide hearing impairment people according to their loss of hearing. I describe and divide compensatory aids for this target group: communication barriers (hearing aid, personal amplifier, turned-up cell phones), then for information barriers (an induction loop, wireless headphones and headphones for radios and TVs) and in the end barriers deal with a contact with an external environment (signalling of a door bell, signalling of time or others actions). Due to wideness of this problem I am focused on the communication barrier which is the most important one from the point of view of social excluding. Other communication barriers follow this one. I deal with a qualitative research using the method of "coincidence selection" and a technique of a semi-controlled dialogue. The research was done in Poradenské centrum pro sluchově postižené v Táboře.

Integration of hearing person into the deaf community
JANEČKOVÁ, Lenka
This diploma thesis is dedicated to the overall view of the deaf people, starting from the issue of an ear and ending by the culture of this community. The main objective of this thesis is to describe the integration of the hearing individual into the deaf community and to explore attitudes and reactions of this community to the hearing and vice versa. The work also contains interviews with both integrated person as well as with deaf people who were involved within the integration. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. The introduction of the theoretical part is engaged in the hearing itself, the construction of the ear, neurotransmission and hearing disorders. Following section is devoted to institutions and organizations that are focused on the issue of deaf people. Conclusion of the theoretical part is dedicated to the culture of deaf people and their communication. In the research section are described difficulties, feelings, attitudes and opinions of a hearing individual, who has entered into the deaf community. After a lapse of time, that the individual spent among deaf people, is apparent a shift and development in his opinion, growing interest and gradual transformation of reasons why he is trying to integrate into the community of deaf people. In the thesis is also described the attitude and approach of deaf people to the hearing individual, who penetrated to this community and had no knowledge how to communicate with deaf people and what are their characteristics and differences.

The accounte of Animal Assisted Therapy for client with hearing-aid and cochlear implant
FRAŇKOVÁ, Zuzana
The thesis deals with a issue of significance of canistherapy for clients with hearing aid and cochlear implants. Canistherapy, as one of the forms of the zoo-therapy, represents a supporting rehabilitation method based on the contact of the man with the dog and their positive interaction. The theoretical part of the thesis contains the topical terminology of the zoo-rehabilitation and canistherapy, where the author makes the analysis of this topic and deals with influence of the canistherapy on the client with specific defects. Within the theoretical part also the issue of a hearing handicap is defined. The target of the thesis is describing canistherapy as supporting therapeutic method for children with hearing defects. The research is focused on applying the Animal Assisted Therapy method. Based on the qualitative research, four casuistic reports were created describing the importance of the canistherapy for children the hearing defects and their family. For the research, the method of participating observation was applied, method of the analysis of documents (method of the secondary data analysis) and a half-standardized talk. As supplementing method I selected questioning (technology of an questionnaire) with open questions and photo-documentation. The research was made on children of pre-school age after the cochlear implantation coming into the Special Pedagogical Centre for Hearing Handicapped in České Budějovice. The results of the research confirmed that canistherapy influences very positively the total development of the child personality, it contributes to the development of speech as well as communication abilities and psycho-social child development. The thesis may serve as information and study material for beginning and professional canistherapeutical teams, pedagogical, special pedagogical and further professional employees and also the lay public. The information may be disseminated in the form of lectures, by creating publications, leaflets etc..
