“…The studies realized during past decade indicate that WBV may increase muscle strength, neuromuscular function, bone mass and mineral density [16][17][18][19], can be useful in improving physical capacity, cardiorespiratory functions, hormonal production, proprioception, and balance [20][21][22].…”

Abstract-Whole body vibration (WBV) techniques are increasingly applied in rehabilitation processes to improve patients' functional mobility. Therapeutic usage of WBV reported enhanced muscular strength, power or even bone density. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to investigate immediate response of single WBV training unit on mobility of elderly patients with neurological disorders. Nineteen patients (66.74 ± 3.65 years, 6 males and 13 females) were assessed before WBV (10 min, 30 Hz, vertical 2 mm) and then 1 min afterwards. Individual changes in gait kinematics indicated positive effects of WBV, while kinematics of the gait was more symmetric considering right and left side. Individually, depending on the disease's severity, these changes were more or less significant. The improvements in gait kinematics convinced us that WBV can be carefully used in patients' therapy and it may be used together with individually planed rehabilitation processes to bring more satisfying results.

Abstract. The value of data is hidden in their organization, accessibility and usability. During a research the data are collected from external sources and created too. If they are not stored in a central database, it is difficult to reuse them and it could lead to inefficiency in a form of duplicated information and time wasting for finding the same information in public sources. An output of research can also be a long time expected medication as a biohazard substance. Both ideas have a common problem of sensitivity and security. It is necessary to protect these data either for secreting against competitors or hiding information from terrorists. For the research team, the Biomedical Database System offers besides security also improvement of data flow in an organization, clear arrangement and efficiency.

-wireless communication eliminates obtrusive cables associated with wearable sensors and considerably increases patient comfort during measurement and collection of medical data. Wireless communication is very popular in recent years and plays a significant role in telemedicine and homecare applications. Bluetooth technology is one of the most commonly used wireless communication types in medicine. This paper describes the design of a universal wireless communication device with excellent price/performance ratio. The said device is based on the low-cost RN4020 Bluetooth module with Microchip Low-energy Data Profile (MLDP) and due to low-power consumption is especially suitable for the transmission of biological signals (ECG, EMG, PPG, etc.) from wearable medical/personal health devices. A unique USB dongle adaptor was developed for wireless communication via UART interface and power consumption was evaluated under various conditions.
