Voláková, Tereza ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Maršáková, Kateřina (referee)
Title: Prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in employees of one company working in an office environment Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to identify the most common WRMDs in individuals with sedentary jobs in an office environment of one company. Another objective, is a more detailed evaluation of the results directed to the risk factors involved in their problems according to the respondents and the preventive strategies used by the respondents to prevent pain and discomfort. Methods: A questionnaire survey was chosen to collect data.

The effect of scapular specific kinesio tape on the movement quality of the upper limb
Jurková, Magdalena ; Vomáčková, Helena (advisor) ; Malá, Jitka (referee)
Title: The effect of scapular specific kinesio tape on the movement quality of the upper limb. Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of specific kinesio tape of shoulder blade on the quality of the movement of the upper limb. Currently, kinesio taping is very popular method in the treatment of myoskeletal diseases. Kinesio taping is mostly used by athletes, however the method becomes one of the common methods in physiotherapist practice. In this diploma thesis, specific method of kinesio taping was used. The method is focused on the facilitation of the lower blade fixators and is frequently used. Positive effect of the method on the position of the shoulder joint is obvious. The movement quality of the upper limb is represented by visual motor skills coordination, which was objectified with selected testing method. The prerequisite is a close relation between the position of the shoulder girdle with the function of the hand. Centred position of the shoulder blade ensured with the fixation of the lower blade fixators allows precise movement of the entire upper limb. The diploma thesis was focused on the population of people working on a computer. This way of working is now the most common cause of pain for patients who visit a physiotherapist. Measurement was attended by...
