Abstract:
The motoral co-ordination is the notion which evolves together with the growth of knowledge and developing the science in this subject.
The aim of the work was the analysis of the movement of the upper limb in relation to the patients stable and unstable trunk after the stroke of the brain and also the valuation of practices havings on the aim of the stabiliti of the trunk.
32 patients spending on the department of neurological rehabilitation with the the recognition of the stroke at which any functional deficit stepped out in the upper limb took the part in the investigation. It was 16 women and 16 men in the group. The meaning of trunk for the co-ordination of the upper limb was estimated on the device ArmeoControl using of three games estimating: „Hunting perpendicular”; „Hunting horizontal”; „Time of the reaction” and two the authors' tests: „ wall” and „abacus”.
It was observed essential (p=0,015) the difference of results in the game estimating ”the time of the reaction” executed before practices, engaging work on the stable trunk and after the period 10 days of the therapy. Essential steps out statisticly the difference of results between first and second investigation executed in the supervisory group for the author's test „abacus”, for the game „hunting perpendicular” the and „time of the reaction”, before and after 10 the days of standard neurological physiotherapy in the supervisory group. It was observed also statisticly essential (p=0,040) the difference of results between groups in the game „hunting perpendicular”.
Both physiotherapy with the practices of the stability of the trunk and standard physiotherapy improves the prehensile efficiency of the hand. Physiotherapy steered on the strengthener of the trunk has the influence on enlargement of the co-ordination of the upper limb in the range of movements executed in the front plane. The improvement of the co-ordination of the upper limb is the effect of standard neurological physiotherapy in the range of movements executed in the arrow and front plane.
Key words: motive co-ordination, stable trunk, practices stabilise of the trunk
