Abstract
Low back pain (LBP) is a common problem of pregnant women. The aim of the study was the assessment of the impact of classic massage on LBP among pregnant women. The group of 57 pregnant women was included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups. The women in Group 1 (n=28) were subjected to a series of classic massage treatments, performed by their partners (after instruction during antenatal classes). Women in Group 2 (n=29) did not change their lifestyle. The applied research tools were the following: The Numerical Pain Rating Scale (VAS), Roland-Morris Questionnaire, Spielberger’s Questionnaire and the authors’ tailored survey. Mann-Whitney U- test was used for comparison of the results between the groups. The minimum level of signi­ficance was set at p<0.05.After the series of treatments, the LBP (measured by VAS) was significantly lower in the research group (p=0.018). A po­sitive impact of massage performed by the partner on the functional activity (p=0.041) as well as and on self-esteem and psychological state (p=0.014) was proved. 1. Massage reduces LBP in pregnant women. 2. Massage performed by pregnant women’s partners may fa­vourably affect the women’s mental condition and improve their general well-being.

Abstract
Objective. The objective of the study was to determine the general level of acceptance for the use of the AfaSystem computer tool to assist in aphasia rehabilitation among Polish patients, as well as to learn patients’ subjective opinions about the positive and negative aspects of working with the program.
Material and methods. 32 patients covered by 2-month therapy using AfaSystem participated in a proprietary survey concerning the level of satisfaction with the use of software in therapy. In the first part of the survey, patients made an overall assessment of the program on a scale of 1 to 5. In the second part, they indicated the most important advantages of such therapy and the difficulties encountered.
Results. Patients indicated that their level of satisfaction with the use of the program was very high. The most important advantages were the increased motivation to exercise, therapy attractiveness, low rehabilitation costs, as well as the ease of use of the program. The disadvantages included limited possibilities of material individualization, the lack of video material and the lack of interactivity.
Conclusions.
1. The use of the AfaSystem computer tool in the rehabilitation process is accepted by patients with post-stroke aphasia.
2. Patients handle the program well and find it attractive.
3. It is advisable to supplement the functionality of the software with high-quality audiovisual materials, extensive individualization of the exercise material, as well as interactivity.

摘要
研究目的。此项研究的目的在确定强化的计算机辅助语言障碍康复治疗对中风后失语症患者命名能力改善的影响。
材料和方法。该项研究涵盖73名失语症患者，住院后患者被分入实验组（n = 36）或对照组（n = 37）。两组均使用波士顿命名测验（BTN）来进行诊断测试，实验组患者接受为期2个月的AfaSystem强化康复计划，对照组患者则接受标准语言治疗，治疗结束后所有患者均再度接受波士顿命名测验，然后在干预结束前后将所取得的结果进行比较，以统计分析评估结果。
结果。为期2个月的计算机辅助治疗结束后，实验组在波士顿命名测验量表上获得的命名能力改善比对照组的患者显著，其差异p = 0.0044具统计学意义。
结果。1. 使用Afasystem 工具进行强化康复治疗可改善中风后失语症患者的命名能力。2. 使用失语症计算机辅助治疗工具可提供高强度的康复治疗，为有效治疗语言障碍的必要条件。
