Abstract

Uvod: Hipoterapija je oblika terapije, ki uporablja konje in konjsko opremo za pomoč otrokom s cerebralno paralizo (CP) pri razvoju boljšega fizičnega, čustvenega in nevrološkega delovanja. Temelji na konceptu, da konjeva hoja, tempo in ponavljajoče se gibanje vplivajo na otrokov senzorni in motorični razvoj. Jahanje sproži vrsto zapletenih telesnih in duševnih reakcij, kot so fizične prilagoditve za vzdrževanje položaja na konju in čustvena povezava s konjem. Namen: Namen diplomskega dela je ugotoviti, kako hipoterapija vpliva na otroke s CP in na katerih področjih se kaže napredek. Metode dela: V diplomskem delu smo uporabili metodo pregleda literature. Pri iskanju smo uporabili članke, izdane med leti 2015 in 2022. V pregled so bile vključene naslednje baze podatkov: CINAHL, PubMed in Web of Science. Iskanje je potekalo z uporabo različnih ključnih besed v angleškem jeziku. Z upoštevanjem vključitvenih in izključitvenih kriterijev je bilo v analizo vključenih 11 člankov. Rezultati: Pregled literature je pokazal, da hipoterapija pripomore, da otrok napreduje na različnih področjih kot so izboljšanje ravnotežja in pokončna drža, večja socialna vključenost in boljša kakovost življenja otrok in skrbnikov. Razprava in zaključek: Zaradi hipoterapije in napredka so otroci postali bolj samozavestni, motivirani in pripravljeni za sodelovanje v različnih dnevnih aktivnostih. Ti pozitivni vidiki potrjujejo smiselnost uporabe hipoterapije v terapevtske namene pri otrocih s CP. V prihodnosti bi bilo potrebno izvesti dodatne empirične raziskave o uporabi hipoterapije v sklopu izvajanja delovne terapije, saj se trenutne raziskave osredotočajo le na splošno rabo hipoterapije.

Secondary title: Use of hippotherapy in children with cerebral palsy
Secondary abstract: Introduction: Hippotherapy is a form of therapy that uses horses and equine-assisted aids to help children with cerebral palsy (CP) develop better physical, emotional, and neurological performance. It is based on the concept that the child's gait on a horse, pace, and repetitive movements influence sensory and motor development. Riding triggers a series of complex physical and mental responses, such as physical adjustments to maintain position on the horse and an emotional connection to the horse. Purpose: The purpose of this work is to determine how hippotherapy affects children with CP and in what areas progress is made. Methods: In this work we used the literature review method. For the search, we used articles published between 2015 and 2022. The following databases were included in the review: CINAHL, PubMed, and Web of Science. The search was performed using different keywords in English. Considering the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 11 articles were included in the analysis. Results: A review of the literature showed that hippotherapy helps the child progress in several areas, such as improvement of balance, upright posture, greater social engagement, and a better quality of life for children and caregivers. Discussion and Conclusion: Through hippotherapy, children are more confident, motivated, and willing to participate in various daily activities. These positive effects confirm the feasibility of using hippotherapy for therapeutic purposes in children with CP. In the future, further empirical research should be conducted on the use of hippotherapy in the context of occupational therapy, as current research focuses only on the general use of hippotherapy.
