Affecting parameters of respiratory gas exchange by use of incentive spirometers
Senohrábková, Eva ; Matouš, Miloš (advisor) ; Smolíková, Libuše (referee)
introduction: The theoretical part of the thesis briefly analyzes the anatomical, kinesiological and physiological aspects of breathing, pursues the issue of examinations of lung functions and also includes a chapter which applies to incentive spirometers. The experimental part of the work examines the impact of three-week training with trainer Coach2 on parameters of respiratory gas exchange at rest and during the exercise in healthy subjects. methods: Both output and control tests included spirometry and spiroergometry examination. The experimental group consisted of 10 subjects, control group consisted of 9 subjects. results: Our results show a significant influence especially on an increase in FVC, decreased respiratory rate at submaximal intensities of exercise and increased breathing rate at maximum load and also an increase in tidal volume at all load levels. Minute ventilation at maximum load increased by an average of 15.17 liters. The control group did not show any improvement. conclusion: It appears that training with trainer Coach2 might be effective in influencing certain ventilatory parameters at rest as well as during the exercise.

Utilization of robotic systems for gait training in neurorehabilitation
Krejčová, Lucie ; Senohrábková, Eva (advisor) ; Janatová, Markéta (referee)
Name: Lucie Krejčová Supervisor: Mgr. Eva Vítová Opponent: Title of bachelor thesis: Utilization of robotic systems for gait training in neurorehabilitation Abstract This work is dedicated to robotic systems, that are used in neurorehabilitation for walk training. Locomotor training is ranked as number one by most neurological patients. Huge demand for gait encourages the creation and development of new technologies such as exoskeletons. The basic question in my work is if robotic gait systems are efficient in rehabilitation. The work is consisted from two parts, part one is theoretical and part two is practical. The theoretical part is conceived as a research benefiting mostly from foreign studies and articles which are focused on robotic systems. This part provides an overview of robotic systems according to various ways of categorizing and their brief description. The separated chapter is devoted to the Lokomat system. The question about efficacy of robotic systems in neurorehabilitation for gait training. This basic question of this work has been answered on the basis of informations from foreign studies. Robotic systems in neurorehabilitation have been found to be effective. Key words: robotic systems, Lokomat, gait, exosceleton

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:...

The Use of Mirror therapy in patients after stroke
Kovář, Jan ; Senohrábková, Eva (advisor) ; Drábová, Zuzana (referee)
BACHELOR THESIS ABSTRACT Title of bachelor thesis:The Use of Mirror therapy in patients after stroke Abstract: The topic of my bachelor thesis consisting of theoretical and practical parts relates to Mirror therapy and its use in patients after stroke from the physiotherapeutical point of view. The theoretical part is conceived as a review of the background art. I summarize present information concerning stroke and describe certain methods and concepts which have proved to be useful in the therapy of stroke patients. The Mirror therapy principle consists in observation of the unaffected limb in a mirror being vertically attached to the sagittal axis of the patient's body. Movements performed by the unaffected limb give illusion these are likewise performed by the impaired limb. While watching the reflection in the mirror, the mirror neurons system is activated. The system thereafter provokes activation of motor and somatosenzory areas of the cerebral hemispheres controlling the affected limb. Central nervous system effectively uses reparation neuroplasticity and provides both motor and senzory function improvement. In the Mirror therapy chapter, I focus on the principles of the method as well as on its therapeutic effects and ways of application. Results of present studies evaluating Mirror therapy efficacy...

Use of Forced-Use Therapy in stroke patients
Slavíková, Radka ; Senohrábková, Eva (advisor) ; Drábová, Zuzana (referee)
Title of bachelors thesis: Use of Forced-Use Therapy in stroke patients Abstract: This bachelor thesis deals with Forced-use therapy, which is used in neurorehabilitation of the upper extremity in stroke patients. The most common symptoms of stroke included upper limb paresis, therefore in neurorehabilitation are alway looking for new methods, which include the FUT. The basis of this therapy is restraint healthy limb, which is achieved by use of the paretic extremity. The basic question this work is whether is FUT effective upper limb in neurorehabilitation of patients after stroke and whether improvements persist after termination of therapy. Bachelor thesis consists of theoretical part and practical part. The theoretical part is conceived as a research drawing particularly from foreign studies. This section contains an overview of studies that discuss the effectiveness of FUT. The practical part contains two case reports documenting the examination and treatment of patients after stroke through FUT. Key words: forced-use therapy, constraint-induced movement therapy, neurorehabilitation, neuroplasticity, stroke
