Abstract:Teoretična izhodišča: Downov sindrom je najpogostejša genetska motnja pri živorojenih otrocih, ki nastane zaradi kromosomske nepravilnosti na 21. paru. Ob napredku medicine se je življenjska doba oseb z Downovim sindromom bistveno podaljšala, kar pa prinaša nove izzive, tudi na področju kardiorespiratornega zdravja. Odrasli z Downovim sindromom se pogosto soočajo s srčno-žilnimi in dihalnimi omejitvami, zaradi česar je telesna aktivnost ključna za vzdrževanje njihovega zdravja in funkcionalnosti. Namen: Cilj diplomske naloge je bil s pregledom strokovne literature odgovoriti na raziskovalno vprašanje, kakšni so učinki fizioterapevtske dejavnosti na kardiorespiratorni sistem odraslih oseb z Downovim sindromom. Metode dela: Izveden je bil pregled znanstvene literature. V analizo je bilo vključenih 8 člankov, izbranih iz baz PubMed, ScienceDirect in Google Scholar. Rezultati: Vsi analizirani članki so poročali o pozitivnem učinku fizioterapije na komponente kardiorespiratornega sistema, kot so srčni utrip, pljučna kapaciteta, dihalni vzorci in aerobna vzdržljivost. Razprava: Čeprav se učinki telesne dejavnosti izkazujejo za pomembne, ostajajo omejitve, kot so pomanjkanje dolgoročnih študij, nizka motivacija posameznikov z Downovim sindromom ter neustrezno prilagojeni vadbeni programi. Za razvoj ustreznih in ciljano usmerjenih intervencij bodo potrebne nadaljnje raziskave.
Keywords:Downov sindrom, fizioterapija, kardiorespiratorni sistem, aerobna zmogljivost, telesna dejavnost

Abstract:Theoretical background: Down syndrome is the most common genetic disorder in live-born children, caused by a chromosomal abnormality on the 21st pair. With medical advancements, the life expectancy of individuals with Down syndrome has significantly increased, which brings new challenges, including in the field of cardiorespiratory health. Adults with Down syndrome often face cardiovascular and respiratory limitations, which is why physical activity is crucial for maintaining their health and functionality. Purpose: The aim of this thesis was to answer the research question of what effects physiotherapeutic activity has on the cardiorespiratory system of adults with Down syndrome, based on a review of scientific literature. Methods: A review of scientific literature was conducted. Eight articles were included in the analysis, selected from the PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases. Results: All analyzed articles reported a positive effect of physiotherapy on components of the cardiorespiratory system, such as heart rate, lung capacity, breathing patterns, and aerobic endurance. Discussion: Although the effects of physical activity appear to be important, limitations remain, such as a lack of long-term studies, low motivation among individuals with Down syndrome, and inadequately adapted exercise programs. Further research will be necessary to develop appropriate and targeted interventions.
Keywords:Down syndrome, physiotherapy, cardiorespiratory system, aerobic capacity, physical activity
