[Dislocations hip arthroplasty].

The authors present analysis of dislocation following hip arthroplasty based on their own clinical material of 1985-2005 year. It contain 2712 cases of total hip arthroplasty, 2171 (80.1%) cases were cemented including 64 (2.4%) cases of revised arthroplasty, 541 (19.9%) cases were cement-free stabilized including 7 (0.2%) cases of revised arthroplasty. Obtained outcomes of analysis permit to make assertion that dislocation following hip arthroplasty occurred during first three month after surgery, more frequently in case of revised arthroplasty and following fractures of femoral neck. Requirement of success is appropriate steady of implant and right done supervision of rehabilitation with learned necessary motoric behaviors.

[Proximal humerus fractures analysis of treatment and rehabilitation outcomes].

The authors make evaluation of functional outcomes proximal humerus fractures depending on applied method using Constant-Murley score in own modification. The clinical material of 1980-2004 years were 93 cases, 41 male (44.1%) and 52 female (55.9%) aged between 28-81 years. The operative treatment was employed in 52 cases (45.1%), nonoperativ in 18 cases (19.4%) and functional treatment using direct traction by olecranion in 33 cases (35.5%). Obtained outcomes based on Constant-Murley score in own modification notice limitation range of motion injured joint, reduction of muscle streught in shoulder rim and decrease of physical activity independently used method of treatment.

[Computer-based rehabilitation of cognitive impairments and motor arm function of patients with hemiparesis after stroke].

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the usefulness of the computer program made for the patients after stroke to treat their cognitive impairments and hemiparesis. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The experimental group involved 10 patients after stroke who were obliged to train on a computer every day during their three-week stay on the rehabilitation ward. The control group involved 10 patients after stroke who did not participate in any computer training during their rehabilitation process. The first part of the computer tasks trains the attention impairments and visual-motor co-ordination problems. We modified the joystick by adding special buttons to train movements of the wrist, thumb and forefinger of the impaired hand. Computer tasks are made in the way to stimulate both the cognitive functions and hand dexterity at the same time. RESULTS: This initial research shows a statistically significant improvement of the cognitive functions and hand dexterity among patients from the experimental group. According to these results we did not observe any significant improvement in the cognitive functions among patients who did not train on a computer (control group). CONCLUSIONS: The results of this research suggest the usefulness of this computer program in training cognitive impairments and visual-motor co-ordination as well as hand dexterity among the patients after stroke.
