Conduction of interferential currents by human body tissues
Zralíková, Hana ; Pánek, David (referee) ; Malá, Jitka (advisor)
Thesis title: Conduction of interferential currents by human body tissues Work objectives: The aim of this work was to determine the effect of electric stimulation on distant muscle groups and to verify, whether the response of mucles depends on the current frequency. Methods: Master's thesis was worked up on the basis of the pilot experimental study which 6 healthy volunteers from FTVS UK were included in. Interferential currents were applied to their paravertebral muscles in thoracolumbar parts on the frequency of 50 Hz and 100 Hz and 120 - 200 Hz. Electrical activity in distant muscle groups was registrated by surface electromyography. EMG records were analyzed by spectral analysis in MyoResearch XP Master program and evaluated visually. Extended essay is authorized by the FTVS UK ethics committee. Results: It was found that the interferential currents do not spread to distant muscle groups and the current frequency has no affect on their conduction. Research has brought another unexpected result, and that the applied current frequency occur in the tissues in its multiples in a very broad frequency bands. Keywords: electrotherapy, interferential currents, surface electromyography, spectral analysis

Evaluation of the sensitivity of fingers at a group of physiotherapists
Grabcová, Miroslava ; Malá, Jitka (referee) ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor)
Evaluation of the sensitivity of fingers at a group of physiotherapists Objectives: The main objective of this study is to evaluate the sensitivity of the hand, specifically stereognosis and two-point discrimination, with groups of ten physiotherapists and ten participants in the control group of normal population and to identify which of these groups will have a better sensitivity of the hand and fingers. Another objective is to compare the results with the age of all participants and with length practice of physiotherapists. Methods: I used a few simple tests for two-point discrimination (two-point discrimination test) and stereognosis (shapes of objects and their material) to evaluation of sensitivity of fingers for research subjects. The results of a professional group I statistically compared with the results of control group, which was selected from the general population. Results: The results of the first type of sensation, stereognosis, were by a group of physiotherapists in comparison with the control group significantly improved. Individual times of physiotherapists were from the first order of best to the last of the worst always smaller than in the same order in the general population. In results of the second type of sensitivity, two-point discrimination, wasn't a group of...

Shiatsu Method: Insight into its Potential Use by Physiotherapists
Klučinová, Lenka ; Véle, František (referee) ; Malá, Jitka (advisor)
Title: Shiatsu Method: Insight into its Potential Use by Physiotherapists Goal of the work: Cílem této práce je rešeršním způsobem podat kritický náhled na metodu shiatsu a její možný přínos pro fyzioterapeuty a zodpovědět níže uvedené hypotézy. methods Pro svou magisterskou diplomovou práci jsem zvolila zpracování zadaného tématu formou critical review. Jedná se tedy o interpretační neboli kvalitativní výzkum v dané oblasti. Z možných metod kvalitativního výzkumu jsem využila studium dokumentů, pasivní pozorování, pozorování s účastí a aktivní rozhovory. Key words: shiatsu, alternativní medicína, akupresura, tsubo (akupresurní bod)

Conduction of low frequency current - TENS - through human tissues
Černíková, Kateřina ; Pánek, David (referee) ; Malá, Jitka (advisor)
Thesis title: Conduction of low frequency current - TENS - through human tissues Name: Kateřina Černíková The aim of the thesis: The aim of this study is to determine, whether applying low frequency TENS cause the conduction of electrical potential to muscle groups outlaying from the point of irritation. And if the frequency has an influence on the conduction. Subjects and Methods: Application of low-frequency current, namely transcutaneous electrical neurostimulation, in the frequencies of 45 Hz, 121 Hz and 235 Hz - on the paravertebral muscles, on the left side of the body. It's a pilot study involving 6 probands (1 man, 5 women) aged 20-30 years. Electrical activity was measured by surface electromyography. Spectral analysis carried out in the Master MyoResearch XP program was used to evaluate the measured data. Results are graphed for clarity. Results: It was confirmed that the condution of electrical potential in the organism exceeds the site of stimulated muscle. However, these are a very low values to be used in clinical practice. This conduction varies according to the applied frequency. With higher frequencies, electrical current gets more to outlying muscle groups. Furthermore, it was found that the frequency of applied current doesn't appears in the used frequency, but in its multiples....

Significancy of the ,,Sternoscapular Line" for Pain Syndromes within the Cervical Region
Soukup, Radek ; Stackeová, Daniela (referee) ; Malá, Jitka (advisor)
Thesis title: Significance of the,, Sternoscapular Line "for Pain Syndromes Within the Cervical Region Vvmezeni problem: how they affect a painful condition of origin or significantly connection with the cervical region, the mutual position of the blades and the keys? It is appropriate to use ,, sternoskapularni line "PFI vysetfovani neck area? That will be the main question of this study. Cile : The aim of practical part is to find out what the connection between painful condition in the cervical region and the mutual position of the blade and clavicle. The general part I will try to summarize most important theoretical knowledge on the topic. The solution of the method: The experiment will attend 30 probands with a painful syndrome of cervical backbone of a similar number of probands without such difficulties. Will be tracking blades and sprouts in probands both groups. Key words: cervical spine, cervical region, sternoscapular line, examination, clinical test, muscular imbalances Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Description of physiotherapists process of patients with cervicocranial symptomology treated for neurotic disorder in psychiatric clinic Bohnice
Šavelová, Jana ; Malá, Jitka (advisor) ; Nováková, Tereza (referee)
SOUHRN Název: Deskripce fyzioterapeutického postupu u pacientů s cervikokraniální symptomatikou léčených pro neurotickou poruchu v Psychiatrické léčebně Bohnice Název v angličtině: Description ofphysiotherapeutic process ofpatiens with cervicocranial symptomology treated for neurotic disorder in psychiatrie clinic Bohnice Cíle práce: Cílem práce je, na základě popisu chodu oddělení pavilonu 3 v Psychiatrické léčebně Bohnicích (PLB), zjistit terapeutické přístupy k pacientům s cervikokraniální (CC) symptomatikou. Dále navrhnout změny, které by zlepšily kvalitu poskytované péče v PLB v oblasti fyzioterapie. Metody: Rešeršní zpracování tématu a deskripce fyzioterapeutického postupu u pacientů s CC symptomatikou léčených pro neurotickou poruchu v PLB na pavilonu 3. Deskripce je provedena na základě vlastního začlenění se do terapeutického týmu pavilonu 3. Výsledky: Z kazuistické deskripce vyšlo najevo, že individuální fyzioterapie je u pacientů s CC symptomatikou a neurotickou poruchou přínosem v celkové terapii. Dále z kazuistik vyplynulo, chceme-li, aby fyzioterapie byla součástí komplexního přístupu k pacientovi, je vhodné, aby byl fyzioterapeut členem terapeutického týmu. Tedy, aby se účastnil alespoň kazuistických porad terapeutického týmu. Smyslem je lepší poznání pacienta, jeho potíží a tím pádem...
