The Effect of DNS Therapy on Asymmetry in Children After Surgery of Congenital Heart Disease
Sponsor: Charles University, Czech Republic
Summary
This thesis will examine the consequences of congenital heart disease (CHD) surgery in children. The main goal of this work is to point out the possible development of late consequences after cardiac surgery in childhood (e.g. asymmetry, scoliosis, hypomobility of the spine) and to assess the effect of DNS therapy on the resolution of the consequences. For patients, after an intensive three-week rehabilitation intervention, an improvement in the monitored initial parameters is expected, which would lead to an improvement in the quality of life.

Dynamic neuromuscular stabilisation
The nervous system establishes programs that control human posture, movement and gait. This 'motor control' is largely established during the first critical years of life. Therefore, the "Prague School" emphasizes neurodevelopmental aspects of motor control in order to assess and restore dysfunction of the locomotor system and associated syndromes.
