Fitness training for individuals after spinal lesion
Mandát, Marek ; Vařeková, Jitka (advisor) ; Pavlová, Ilona (referee)
Title: Fitness training for individuals after spinal lesion Objectives: The aim of the bachelor thesis is to monitor the influence of physical intervention in the form of fitness training on body composition and movement performance of individuals after spinal lesion. Methods: In the framework of a quantitative and qualitative research study, four subjects after the spinal lesion who are participating in the reconditioning stay at the Paraple Center were observed in case studies. Among the selected subjects were three males and one female, three of them with paraplegia and one with tetraplegia in the range C 6 - Th 6. The average subject age was 41.5 years (24 - 74). Except for one individual, all showed moderate overweight and decreased exercise activity in everyday life outside the research. Research methodology consisted of one month intervention in the form of individually adjusted fitness training. In order to set up the intervention and to evaluate the effect, the following methods were used for input and output testing: observation, assessment of body composition using the Bodystat instrument and evaluation of exercise performance by measurements on a rowing and cross- country trainer where the mileage was monitored. Results: All subjects attained a slight improvement in body composition in...

Basal metabolic rate, dietary intervention and nutrients producing nociceptive pain in individuals with spinal cord injury
Chaloupková, Eva ; Heller, Jan (advisor) ; Bartůňková, Staša (referee) ; Kálal, Jan (referee)
Title: Basal metabolism and nutritional intervention for people with spinal cord injuries Objectives: The main objective of this work was empirical research of case evaluation studies (n = 3), where we analyzed: the relationship between energy expenditure (basal metabolism) and energy intake for people diagnosed with spinal cord injury (SCI). The secondary objective was to determine whether the changes in macronutrient distribution and daily energy intake would result in a decrease in body weight and body fat for individual probands. The pilot study in our work was focused on the overview of variable basal metabolism (BM) values for people with SCI. Methods: In our work, we used the method of indirect calorimetry to measure BM and together with the value of working metabolism we determined in the nutritional intervention (n. i.) the ideal energy intake for our probands. We observed primarily measurable changes in the amount of fat and muscle tissue. Results: We have found that, in keeping with the prescribed n. i. rules, all probands achieved to reduce their body weight. The average body weight loss for probands was 0.29 ± 0.02 kg per week. BM values in our pilot study were 15 to 61% lower for our probands (n = 15) and did not correlate with the height of SCI. Key words: spinal cord injury (SCI),...

Sexual satisfaction in people with spinal cord injuries engaged in regular physical activity
Kuncipálová, Žaneta ; Prokešová, Eva (advisor) ; Půlpán, David (referee)
Title: Sexual satisfaction in people with spinal cord injuries engaged in regular physical activity. Objectives: The main goal of this work is to determine the level of sexual satisfaction in people with spinal cord injuries, who perform regular physical activity. Methods: A battery of questions was used to find out the satisfaction of people with spinal cord injuries, who regularly perform physical activity. The WHOQOL 100, PASID, LATA, SAS SAQ questionnaires were used as basic for creating battery of questions. Data collection was completely anonymous and took place online. The survey involved 21 respondents with spinal cord injuries (18 men and 3 women) aged 18 to 75 years. All were included in the research because they met the criteria for performing regular physical activity. The results of the survey were processed into graphs and tables and supplemented by a written commentary. Results: It was found that for a majority of respondents their sexual life is important and for most of them the sexual life is a source of pleasure. Almost half of the respondents consider their sexual life satisfactory. However , less than half of the respondents state that not all their needs are met. The research suggests that satisfaction with amount of physical activity performed may be related to higher quality...

The Influence of Virtual Reality on Psychosomatic State of Patients with Spinal Cord Injury
Nosková, Kateřina ; Pánek, David (advisor) ; Maršáková, Kateřina (referee)
The Aim of the Study: The aim of this diploma thesis is to capture the change of clinical state of patients with spinal cord injury while watching videos of virtual reality fot three 3 months using ASIA assessment. The goal is to determine the effect of the change of clinical state on the patient's quality of life while using SQUALA and on their imagery ability (WIAQ) while a therapeutic video of virtual reality is regularly played through virtual reality headset. Methods: The research was conducted with 7 probands (n=7, 5 males, 2 females) aged between 31 and 61 years (the average age of 49,6 years), which regular visitors of Centrum Paraple, o. p. s. The propands who participated in research suffer with incomplete spinal lesion. Before any intervention the probands were assessed by ASIA, standardised assessment to estimate neurological level of spinal lesion by assigning the number of motor and sensitive points in each segment. The assessment was conducted by proffessional and specificly trained staff of Centrum Paraple, o. p. s. Furthermore the probands completed the psychological questionnaires to evaluate their quality of life (SQUALA) and imagery ability of the movement (WIAQ) in the pacient with spinal cord injury. As in the beginnig, so in the end of the research the ASIA was conducted once...
