Assessment of motor activity in children with autism by inertial sensors - Method of measurement and its utilization in diagnostic
Nývltová, Lucie ; Komárek, Vladimír (advisor) ; Zounková, Irena (referee)
Autism belongs to developmental pervasive disorders. Primary symptoms of autism include failure in communication, social interaction and imagination. Other symptoms are abnormalities in physical activity manifested by delays in motor development, stereotyped movements, postural instability, impaired in imitation and dyspraxia. These symptoms already come up in the first years of life. The first diagnosis of autism used to be made between 2nd and 3rd year of life, however if the diagnosis could be based on physical symptoms, it would be possible to establish the diagnosis earlier. The work presents a method of measurement by inertial sensors that could be used to assess physical activity of autistic children.
Possibilities of physiotherapy at Morbus Parkinson
VALÁŠKOVÁ, Terezie
Parkinson disease is considered as unhealable. This progressive disease is only possible to slow down thanks to usage of right cure for clinical symptoms and this way prolong life of patients. Because of this is therapy aimed at clinical symptoms as tremor, rigidity, hypokinesis, bradykinesis and postural instability. The most often chosen type of therapy is pharmacological, but internal part of the therapy is physiotherapy as well. First target of this thesis was To chart possibilities of physiotherapy at Morbus Parkinson. This target is described in theoretical part in subchapter 1.10 Possibilities of physiotherapy. Second target was Suggestion and evaluation of therapy at patients at Morbus Parkinson. Practical part of my bachelor thesis was processed by method of qualitative research at 8 patients and this data was processed by form of case reports. Therapy was done nine times at group therapy since January until April 2017. For patients was designed therapy where were used some of possibilities of physiotherapy, that are mentioned in theoretical part. This therapy was evaluated by using results of initial and exit examination. There was no big change in patients' condition during therapy. But is important to say that there is nobody threatened by risk of fall. This thesis can be beneficial especially for patients at Parkinson disease and their close relatives. It can be beneficial for physiotherapists who organize group therapies as well.
Influence of deep brain stimulation on postural stability in patients with Parkinson disease
Zelenková, Jana ; Kobesová, Alena (advisor) ; Zárubová, Kateřina (referee)
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease of the basal ganglia. Its main symptoms are rigidity, tremor, bradykinesia, hypokinesia and postural instability. One possible way how to infuence diseases is neurosurgical treatment - deep brain stimulation. The principle is the implantation of electrodes in the basal ganglia and modulation of activity of the basal ganglia circuits due to electrical stimulation. Stimulation affects the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease. This thesis deals with the influence of deep brain stimulation on postural stability in patients with Parkinson's disease.
