Rehabilitation processes in people with Parkinson's disease

Abstract

Glavni cilj ovog diplomskog rada je prikazati i pobliţe objasniti nove eksperimentalne metode dijagnosticiranja i rehabilitacijski postupak nakon dijagnosticiranja Parkinsonove bolesti, koji uključuje korištenje raznih metoda liječenja i kineziterapijski plan i program. Parkinsonova bolest je progresivan i degenerativan neurološki poremećaj koji je karakteriziran primarno motoričkim simptomima. To je najpoznatiji neurološki poremećaj kretanja od kojeg u Europi boluje oko milijun ljudi. Uzrok Parkinsonove bolesti još uvijek nije poznat, a vrlo vjerojatno je uzrok kombinacija genetskih i okolišnih čimbenika koji su povezani s nedostatkom dopamina tj. propadanjem dopaminergičkih neurona u dijelu mozga koji se naziva „crna tvar“ (supstantia nigra), a zaduţen je za kontrolu voljnih pokreta.Main objective of this thesis is to demonstrate and explain more closely new experimental methods of diagnosis and rehabilitation process after the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, which involves the use of various methods of treatment and kinesiotherapeutical plan and program. Parkinson's disease is a progressive and degenerative neurological disorder which is characterized by a primary motor symptoms. It is best known neurological movement disorder from which in Europe suffers about a million people. The cause of Parkinson's disease is still unknown, but probably the cause is a combination of genetic and environmental factors that are connected with a lack of dopamine ie. the decline of dopaminergic neurons in the brain called "black substance" (substantia nigra), and is responsible for control of voluntary movement
