Application of a kinesiotherapy program in the rehabilitation of a child with CHARGE syndrome - Case Report

CHARGE sindrom je rijetki genetski poremećaj obilježen brojnim kongenitalnim malformacijama i senzoričkim oštećenjima. Ključna mutacija u genu CHD7 uzrokuje širok spektar simptoma poput koloboma oka, srčanih mana te koanalne atrezije. Oštećenja sluha i vida, kao i motorički, kognitivni i socio-emocionalni izazovi značajno utječu na kvalitetu života oboljelih. Rana dijagnoza omogućuje pravovremenu intervenciju multidisciplinarnog tima stručnjaka, što je presudno za razvojne ishode djece. U prikazu slučaja djevojčice s CHARGE sindromom proveden je kineziterapijski program usmjeren na koordinaciju gornjih ekstremiteta i finu motoriku. Primjenom standardiziranih testova poput Bruininks-Oseretsky Testa (BOT-2) pokazano je da individualizirani rehabilitacijski pristup može značajno unaprijediti motoričke sposobnosti i samostalnost djece s CHARGE sindromom. Završni rad istražuje učinke primjene kineziterapijskog programa na funkcionalne sposobnosti djece s CHARGE sindromom.CHARGE syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by numerous congenital malformations and sensory impairments. A key mutation in the CHD7 gene causes a wide range of symptoms, including ocular coloboma, heart defects, and choanal atresia. Hearing and vision impairments, along with motor, cognitive, and socio-emotional challenges, significantly impact the quality of life of affected individuals. Early diagnosis enables timely intervention by a multidisciplinary team of specialists, which is critical for developmental outcomes in children. In the case study of a girl with CHARGE syndrome, a kinesitherapy program focused on upper limb coordination and fine motor skills was implemented. Using standardized assessments such as the Bruininks-Oseretsky Test (BOT-2), the study demonstrated that an individualized rehabilitation approach can significantly enhance motor abilities and independence in children with CHARGE syndrome. This thesis explores the effects of applying a kinesitherapy program on the functional abilities of children with CHARGE syndrome

Exercise in pregnancy

Vježbanje tijekom trudnoće sve se više prepoznaje kao važan čimbenik u očuvanju zdravlja trudnice i pravilnog razvoja fetusa. Promjene koje se događaju tijekom trudnoće, uključujući anatomske, fiziološke i hormonalne prilagodbe, imaju značajan utjecaj na svakodnevno funkcioniranje žene te mogu dovesti do bolnih stanja i smanjene funkcionalnosti ako se ne pristupi pravovremenoj i pravilnoj fizičkoj intervenciji. U ovom radu prikazane su različite vrste vježbi koje se preporučuju tijekom trudnoće poput aerobnog treninga, vježbi snage, vježbi cirkulacije, vježbe u vodi te specifične vježbe za prvo, drugo i treće tromjesečje. Naglasak je stavljen na doziranje intenziteta, pravilnu tehniku izvođenja vježbi i individualizaciju pristupa svakoj trudnici, uzimajući u obzir njeno zdravstveno stanje, stupanj prethodne tjelesne aktivnosti i prisutnost eventualnih kontraindikacija. Uloga fizioterapeuta u ovom procesu izuzetno je važna jer upravo on provodi procjenu funkcionalnog statusa trudnice, planira siguran i učinkovit program vježbanja, educira trudnicu o pravilnim položajima tijela, tehnikama disanja i načinu izvođenja svakodnevnih standardiziranih upitnika poput PPAQ i PARmed-X te testova za procjenu posturalnih i mišićnih promjena, kao što je dijastaza m. rectus abdominisa. Posebna pažnja posvećena je pravilnom izvođenju pokreta i zaštitnim položajima u trudnoći kako bi se preveniralo prenaprezanja, mišićne disbalanse i potencijalne ozljede, osobito u kasnijim fazama trudnoće. Sve navedeno doprinosi ne samo boljoj tjelesnoj spremnosti trudnice, već i lakšem porodu, bržem oporavku te općenitom osjećaju dobrobiti tijekom trudnoće.Exercise during pregnancy is increasingly recognized as an important factor in maintaining the health of the pregnant woman and supporting the proper development of the fetus. The changes that occur throughout pregnancy, including anatomical, physiological and hormonal adaptations, significantly affect a woman's daily functioning and can lead to painful conditions and reduced functionality if not addressed through timely and appropriate physical intervention. This paper presents various types of exercises recommended during pregnancy, such as aerobic training, strenght training, circulation exercises, water-based exercises and trimester-specific workouts for the first, second and third stages of pregnancy. Emphasis is placed on intensity regulation, correct exercise technique and the need to tailor the approach to each individual pregnant woman, taking into account her health status, previous activity level and any potential contraindications. The role of the physiotherapist in this process is extremely important, as they are responsible for assessing the physical condition of the pregnant woman, planning a safe and effective exercise program and educating her on proper body positioning, breathing techniques and execution of daily activities. Additionally, physiotherapists use standardized questionnaires such as the PPAQ and PARmed-X as well as tests to evaluate postural and muscular changes, such as diastasis of the rectus abdominis muscle. Special attention is given to correct movement execution and protective postures during pregnancy to prevent overstrain, muscle imbalances and potential injuries, especiall in the later stages of pregnancy. All of the above contributes not only to improved physical preparedness of the pregnant woman but also to an easier labor, faster recovery and an overall sense of well-being during pregnancy

Attitudes and knowledge of students of health and non-health professions about HPV vaccination

Ovaj diplomski rad bavi se analizom stavova i razine znanja studenata zdravstvenih i nezdravstvenih struka o procijepljenosti protiv humanog papiloma virusa (HPV). HPV se smatra najčešćom spolno prenosivom infekcijom, a uzrokuje različite vrste karcinoma, uključujući rak vrata maternice, penisa, vagine i orofaringealnih regija. Čimbenici rizika za HPV infekciju uključuju rani početak spolne aktivnosti, veći broj spolnih partnera, nezaštićene spolne odnose, nisku razinu obrazovanja, pušenje, te smanjeni imunitet. Liječenje HPV infekcija uključuje razne metode, ovisno o prirodi lezija. Kod benignih lezija, poput genitalnih bradavica, liječenje može uključivati krioterapiju, elektrokauterizaciju i kemijske metode. Prevencija HPV-a obuhvaća cijepljenje kao najučinkovitiji oblik zaštite od najopasnijih sojeva virusa. Cijepljenje protiv HPV-a je dostupno u Republici Hrvatskoj od 2015. godine, besplatno za učenike osnovnih i srednjih škola te za sve osobe do 25 godina. Uz cijepljenje, preporučuju se redoviti pregledi i testiranje, poput PAPA testa, kako bi se pravovremeno otkrile moguće promjene izazvane HPV infekcijom. Cilj istraživanja bio je utvrditi koliko su studenti informirani o HPV-u, koji su njihovi stavovi prema cijepljenju te kolika je stvarna procijepljenost među njima. Istraživanje je provedeno online anketnim upitnikom kojeg je ispunio 261 student, podijeljen u dvije skupine: studenti zdravstvenih i nezdravstvenih struka. Rezultati su pokazali da studenti zdravstvenih struka imaju bolju informiranost i višu razinu znanja o HPV-u i cijepljenju u usporedbi s kolegama iz nezdravstvenih struka. Međutim, bez obzira na relativno visoku razinu informiranosti, većina studenata pokazuje negativan stav prema cijepljenju – samo manji dio njih je cijepljen, a mnogi necijepljeni studenti ne planiraju to učiniti u budućnosti.This final paper deals with the analysis of the attitudes and level of knowledge of students of health and non-health professions about vaccination against the human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is considered the most common sexually transmitted infection, and causes various types of cancer, including cancer of the cervix, penis, vagina, and oropharyngeal regions. HPV Risk include early onset of sexual activity, greater number of sexual partners, unprotected sex, low level of education, smoking, and reduced immunity. Treatment of HPV infections includes various methods, depending on the nature of the lesions. For benign lesions, such as genital warts, treatment may include cryotherapy, electrocautery, and chemical methods. HPV prevention includes vaccination as the most effective form of protection against the most dangerous strains of the virus. Vaccination against HPV has been available in the Republic of Croatia since 2015, free of charge for primary and secondary school students and for all persons up to 25 years of age. In addition to vaccination, regular examinations and testing, such as the PAPA test, are recommended in order to timely detect possible changes caused by HPV infection. The objective of the research was to determine how informed the students are about HPV, what their attitudes are towards vaccination, and the actual vaccination rate among them. The research was conducted through a questionnaire on a sample of 261 students, divided into two groups: students of health and non-health professions. The results showed that students of health professions have better information and a higher level of knowledge about HPV and vaccination compared to their colleagues from non-health professions. However, regardless of the relatively high level of information, most students show a negative attitude towards vaccination - only a small part of them have been vaccinated, and many unvaccinated students do not plan to do so in the future

The impact of digital transformation on the business performance of small and medium-sized enterprises in the Republic of Croatia

Digitalna transformacija predstavlja ključan strateški proces koji omogućuje poduzećima prilagodbu dinamičnim promjenama u tehnološkom i poslovnom okruženju. Cilj ovog rada bio je istražiti utjecaj digitalne transformacije na poslovne rezultate malih i srednjih poduzeća, s posebnim naglaskom na njezine učinke na rast prihoda, smanjenje operativnih troškova, povećanje kvalitete poslovnih procesa i poboljšanje korisničkog iskustva. Teorijski okvir rada temelji se na dosadašnjim istraživanjima koja ističu digitalizaciju, automatizaciju, primjenu umjetne inteligencije i analitiku podataka kao ključne faktore uspješne transformacije poslovanja. Poseban naglasak stavljen je na prednosti i izazove digitalne transformacije, pri čemu se ističe da njezina uspješnost ovisi o strateškoj usklađenosti s poslovnim ciljevima, razini tehnološke spremnosti poduzeća i sposobnosti menadžmenta da učinkovito upravlja promjenama. Empirijsko istraživanje provedeno na uzorku od 90 malih I srednjih poduzeća analiziralo je povezanost primjene digitalnih tehnologija s poslovnim performansama. Rezultati su pokazali da digitalna transformacija ima značajan utjecaj na optimizaciju poslovnih procesa i poboljšanje korisničkog iskustva, pri čemu se automatizacija i chatbotovi ističu kao ključni alati za unaprjeđenje operativne efikasnosti. S druge strane, financijski učinci digitalne transformacije nisu pokazali statistički značajnu povezanost s rastom prihoda, dok se utjecaj na smanjenje operativnih troškova pokazao ovisnim o primjeni analitike podataka. Ovi nalazi sugeriraju da digitalna transformacija prvenstveno donosi koristi kroz povećanje produktivnosti i kvalitete usluga, dok njezin financijski učinak može biti dugoročan i posredovan dodatnim čimbenicima.Digital transformation is a key strategic process that enables companies to adapt to dynamic changes in the technological and business environment. The aim of this paper was to investigate the impact of digital transformation on the business performance of small and medium-sized enterprises, with a particular emphasis on its effects on revenue growth, reduction of operating costs, increase in the quality of business processes and improvement of the customer experience. The theoretical framework of the paper is based on previous research that highlights digitalization, automation, the application of artificial intelligence and data analytics as key factors for successful business transformation. Special emphasis is placed on the advantages and challenges of digital transformation, emphasizing that its success depends on strategic alignment with business goals, the level of technological readiness of the company and the ability of management to effectively manage change. Empirical research conducted on a sample of 90 small and medium-sized enterprises analyzed the connection between the application of digital technologies and business performance. The results showed that digital transformation has a significant impact on the optimization of business processes and the improvement of the customer experience, with automation and chatbots standing out as key tools for improving operational efficiency. On the other hand, the financial effects of digital transformation did not show a statistically significant correlation with revenue growth, while the impact on reducing operating costs was shown to be dependent on the application of data analytics. These findings suggest that digital transformation primarily brings benefits through increased productivity and service quality, while its financial impact may be long-term and mediated by additional factors
