Abstract
The project is based on a concept of task oriented neurological rehabilitation whose goal is to strengthen and renew weakened or lost as well as change abnormal and inhibit excessive movements. Optimal use of suitable therapeutical and rehabilitation procedures depends closely on an in-depth knowledge of prevailing movement disorders in impaired individuals. In the research tasks as proposed the application of biomechanical and electrophysiological methods will be applied to better elucidate the still incompletely explained functional significance of certain pathological factors of movement disorders in chronic lesions of the central nervous system. We intend to find out how pathological changes in the gait of impaired persons are affected by disorders of the voluntary control of muscle activity, reduced strength of lower extremity muscles, and excessive and uncontrolled reflex activity (spasticity). Furthermore, we wish to investigate the possibilities of changing abnormal motor activities by means of new therapeutic procedures and instrumental aids. An original approach will be used by selecting a combined therapy whose effects will be researched by biomechanical and neurophysiological methods. The weakened activitiy of the lower and upper extremity muscles will be stimulated by using an advanced method of electrical neuromuscular stimulation while excessive reflex activity of movement-inhibiting muscles will simultaneously be reduced by locally applied Botulinum neurotoxin. Analysed in collaboration with investigators from Germany and Denmark will be improvements in the movement abilities of impaired persons which we intend to achieve through target exercises for the improvement of balance and treadmill gait training whereat two novel mechanical and electronic devices will be used, developed as a result of long-year research by our collaborators both at home and abroad
