Determining the range of human joints motion using accelerometer data
Toláš, Štěpán ; Sekora, Jiří (referee) ; Kolářová, Jana (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on determining the range of human joints motion using accelerometeter data. The theoretical part first describes the basic kinesiology of human joints. This part is followed by chapters which contain the basic information about accelerometers and describes how obtain measurements using these sensors. The last chapter is focused on the design of an algorithm for calculation the range, velocity and path of motion written in Matlab programming environment.

The influence of specific training on the development of muscle strength of legs
Nepožitek, Jan ; Bátorová, Michaela (referee) ; Šťastný, Jan (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the use of isokinetic dynamometry for the analysis of the effect of specific training. The introductory part of the bachelor thesis described isokinetics, history and types of muscle activities. There is also a proposal for a specific training, which the experimental group followed over the course of two months. Part of the work is to determine the measurement methodology on an isokinetics dynamometer, in which the experimental and control groups were measured before and after specific training. As part of the dynamometric testing, the muscular strength of the lower limbs in the knee joint was measured, in which the quadriceps and hind muscles were the most involved. The assumpiton was that experimental group would have an increase in muscle strength after completing a specific training. The measured values were processed in the Matlab software environment, thanks to which the individual signals and the maximum values of individual measurements were plotted. The measured values were statistically processed and evaluated using non-parametric tests. It was found that specific training had a partial effect on the development of muscle strength in the lower limbs.

On the advanced production technology of UHMWPE joint implant part
Urbancová, Kateřina ; Sliwková, Petra (referee) ; Píška, Miroslav (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis is dealing with the problematics of individual joint replacements. The thesis summarizes the modern materials used for making artificial joint replacements, but it concentrates mainly on the plastic femoro-tibial part of the implant, usually manufactured from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. This material is the best choice when manufacturing the articulating surface of the joint replacement at the moment. The thesis pays attention to the polyethylene surface treatment, as the quality of the surface affects the wear of the plastic, which is critical for the implant lifespan. The thesis also focuses on analysis of the coefficient of friction of UHMWPE in contact with the titanium femoral component. Another part of this thesis is also a wear analysis of used tibial inserts made of UHMWPE and the mechanisms of wear.

Research study of tumorous total endoprosthesis of knee and hip joint
Věžníková, Tereza ; Florian, Zdeněk (referee) ; Marcián, Petr (advisor)
The presented bachelor’s thesis deals with tumorous total endoprosthesis of knee and hip joint. Tumorous replacement is used in patients with bone losts due to bone tumors and for these patients it means the salvage of their limb and the possibility to live full lives. This work includes the description of the developement, types and currently used replacement after bone tumors. The significiant part of patients with bone tumors are children for whom there are growing endoprosthesis containing the expandable mechanism and thanks to this the length of the limb can be regulated. In the last part of this work the stress-strain analysis of tumorous total hip endoprosthesis is performed using computational modeling.

Total knee arthroplasty
Zděblo, Jakub ; Marcián, Petr (referee) ; Florian, Zdeněk (advisor)
The Bachelor thesis deals with total knee arthroplasty. Describes the historical development from the view of the structural types and materials used in manufacturing. It characterizes various materials, focusing on mechanical properties. The thesis involves strain - stress analysis by finite element method using ANSYS software in the examination of the causes of knee joint replacement failure.

Analysis of Kinematic and Dynamic of Knee Joint
Halama, Jakub ; Dočkal, Kryštof (referee) ; Urban, Filip (advisor)
The bachelor thesis summarizes present knowledge of the knee joint in terms of its mechanics, it compares joint kinematics and dynamics during various locomotor activities of daily living such as: gait, standing up from the chair, ascending and descending stairs, running. Furthermore, the thesis focuses on the changes in the motion and loading of the joint in the cases of osteoarthritis and knee replacement in comparison with healthy individuals. Lastly, it also describes the loading asymmetries between healthy and affected knee.

The case study of physioterapeutical treatment of a patient after knee arthroscopy for meniscal lesions
Hynková, Lucie ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Jančařík, Vít (referee)
Author: Lucie Hynková Title of the thesis: The case study of physioterapeutical treatment of a patient after knee arthroscopy for meniscal lesions. Head of the thesis: PhDr. Tereza Nováková, PhD. Year of defense: 2014 Abstract: This bachelor's thesis was made like the case study of a patient after knee arthroscopy for meniscal lesion. It's been prepared in the course of professional practice from 7th January to 2nd February 2013 in Institut klinické a experimentální medicíny (IKEM) in Prague. The work consists of a general part, which follows up with the anatomy and biomechanics of the knee joint, soft tissue trauma in the area of knee joint, clinical examination, medical imaging techniques and therapeutic procedures in the case of lesions of the meniscus. A special part follows up a specific case study of a patient, who attended the outpatient department on rehabilitation clinic IKEM. It contains the input kinesiology examination, plan of the therapy, the performance and the evaluation of therapy at the end. Key words: Case study, knee joint, injury of meniscus, arthroscopy, physiotherapy

Case report on physiotherapeutic care of a patient with total left knee replacement on the left side caused by the gonarthrosis
Hábová, Tereza ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Coufalová, Jitka (referee)
Title: Case report on physiotherapeutic care of a patient with total left knee replacement on the left side caused by the gonarthrosis. Summary: This thesis focuses on case report of a patient after total left knee replacement. The work contains two parts - the general part and the specialized part. The general part deals with structure, kinesiology and biomechanics of the knee joint, general definition of gonarthrosis, its cause, clinical symptoms and its treatment. It also describes the gonarthrosis, indications and the types of total knee replacement prosthesis. The most important topics of the general part contain descriptions of therapeutic methods and procedures, focused on improving patient's health in the post- operation phase. The specialized part constitutes the main part of this thesis. It is processed via case report form and describes the physiotherapeutic treatment of a specific patient, who underwent a total knee replacement surgery. In the conclusion of the specialized part of the thesis, I evaluate the effects of the theraphy. Key words: knee joint, total knee replacement, gonartrosis, rehabilitation Diagnosis: St.p. total left knee replacement caused by gonarthrosis
