Slackline as a therapeutic possibility to influence postural stability
Komárková, Klára ; Čakrt, Ondřej (advisor) ; Pospíšilová, Mariana (referee)
Objectives: To summarize knowledge about a control of posture, a balance training and a testing on balance platform. I investigate in experimental part of my thesis if slackline training will affect stabilography and differences in quantitative parameters will be found in a training group or a control group. Hypothesis: A specific slackline training positively affects stability which was measured in posturographic selected tests done by the training group. Methods: We test postural stability in control (10 persons) and training (10 persons) group in selected tests of stability. We used a balance platform for testing. The data were statistically analysed. Results: 4 weeks of intense slackline training result in improvement of postural control. That is support by the data of stabilometric examination. The results were just below statistical significance (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The results testify that slacklining can improve postural control in healthy subjects. The results were on the boundary of statistical significance in our intervention group.
Balance training in seniors using force platform
Holá, Irena ; Janatová, Markéta (advisor) ; Jeníček, Jakub (referee)
Name: Irena Holá Supervisor: MUDr. Markéta Janatová Opponent: Title of bachelor thesis: Balance training in seniors using force platform. Abstract: This bachelor thesis deals with the issue of balance disorders due to ageing and the usage of the virtual reality in case of these disorders. The aim of this work is to evaluate the effect of home based balance training using the force platform and visual biofeedback. For the objective evaluation the Footscan® system is used. The thesis consists of two parts. Theoretical part summarizes the knowledge related to the balance provision, old age and ageing, involution changes which leads to balance disorders. This part also describes the virtual reality, its usage in rehabilitation and includes several studies of using gaming systems in elderly. In the end of the theoretical part the system which is used in the practical part is described. The practical part describes four weekly home balance training in the form of case reports, charts and graphs. There are analyzing data of seven respondents in the senior age. Results of the work are evaluated and compared with the conclusions of foreign studies. Key words: Virtual reality, aging, geriatric syndromes, balance, force platform, instability
Use of interactive device Homebalance® in therapy of vertebrogenic algic syndrome
Hanzelka, Michal ; Šilhavá, Sylva (advisor) ; Hašpicová, Marcela (referee)
The topic of the bachelor's thesis is the use of internal Homebalance® aids, certified as a medical device class I, in therapy in patients diagnosed with vertebrogenic algic syndrome. The work introduces this technology and isdivided into two parts, theoretical and practical. In the practical part, two case reports of patients with this are processed diagnosis. The evaluation of the effectiveness of the therapy is performed by comparing the input and output examination, which uses the measurement of the distance spine, body weight distribution using two scales, pain evaluation according to the NRS scale (The Numeric Rating Scale) and automatic evaluation of the exercise with the Homebalance® system. Finally, a comparison of the effectiveness of therapy performed in one patient only with the Homebalance® device with the Homebalance® device therapy combined with therapy with proven physiotherapeutic methods and concepts (DNS and McKenzie exercise elements) in the other patient
Home therapy of the patients after stroke with stability disorders with utilization of visual biofeedback and stabilometric platform
Lidová, Monika ; Tichá, Marie (advisor) ; Jeníček, Jakub (referee)
Authorˊs first name and surname: Monika Lidová Bachelor thesis supervizor: MUDr. Marie Tichá Oponent: Title of bachelor thesis: Home therapy of the patients after stroke with stability disorders With utilization visual biofeedback and stabilometric platform Abstract: The thesis deals with therapy of the patients after stroke with stability disorders in virtual reality. Stabilometric platform Nintendo Wii and program HomeBalance were used during the therapy and enable the visual biofeedback to the pacient. Another specification of this therapy is that the whole process was situated to home environment. The therapy lasted one month and every patient should exercise every day. Time of one exercise depended on the patient's skills. The patient's task was to change position of the center of pressure to the specific place. Every day the patient exercised identical therapeutic scene consisting of a balanced position sequence in the space, that the patient should have achieved. The success of the therapy was evaluated objectively by intrumentation (FootScan) and objective tests, but also by patients' subjective feeling. Berg Balance Scale, Timed Up and Go and Tinetti Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment were used as the objective tests. The monitored parameter for objective evaluation of the stabilometric...
