Šrámková, Šárka ; Petr, Miroslav (advisor) ; Majorová, Simona (referee)
Title: Methods of prevention in hyperextension trauma to the elbow of the handball goalkeeper. Objectives: The main objective of this thesis is to determine whether the muscle strengthening exercises stabilizers of the elbow affect the stability of the elbow joint and also draw attention to the issue of hyperextension trauma to the elbow joint of the handball goalkeeper. Another objective is to evaluate the possibility of prevention of hyperextension trauma to the elbow joint of the handball goalkeeper. Methods: Rating angular deviations observed in the elbow before and after completing the intervention. Deviations were recorded using a 3D analysis system Qualysis and were processed in software Qualisys Track Manager. Results: Strengthening the dynamic stabilizers of the elbow helps to improve stability of the elbow joint load into hyperextension. Active exercise can be used as a possible prevention of hyperextension trauma to the elbow joint of handball goalkeepers. Keywords: elbow joint, hyperextension trauma, goalkeeper, handball, strengthening

Physical activity and body composition in patients with ankylosing spondylitis
Srovnalíková, Lucie ; Levitová, Andrea (advisor) ; Majorová, Simona (referee)
Name of diploma thesis: Physical activity and body composition in patients with ankylosing spondylitis Prepared by: Bc. Lucie Srovnalíková Supervisor: PhDr. Andrea Levitová, Ph.D. Target: The findings the size of physical activity and body composition in the groups of patients with ankylosing spondylitis with different duration of disease and subsequent comparison of the size of physical activity with selected health recommendations for a healthy population. Methods: The sample consists of participants (10 women and 36 men, n = 46, 42.8 ± 11.3 years old) with clinically diagnosed disease ankylosing spondylitis who have been outpatiently visiting Rheumatology institute in Prague. The sample was divided into three groups according to the duration of disease (1st group 0-6 years, 2nd group 7 -14 years, 3rd group 3-15 years). Accelerometer ActiGraph GT3X was used for determine the size of weekly physical activity. Bioelectrical impedance using a BIA 2000 was used to assess the body composition. Results: From the perspective of the physical activity health recommendations all three groups met health recommendation for minimum amount of moderate-intensity physical activity throughout the week (150 minutes). Neither group, however, did not meet health recommendation for minimum average daily number of...

Usage of floating for regeneration
Mišinec, Martin ; Majorová, Simona (advisor) ; Vařeková, Jitka (referee)
- 1 - Abstract: Name of thesis: Usage of floating for regeneration Goals of thesis: Assess which aspects have influence on final enjoyment of the floating procedure by comparison of survey results of two client's groups. Determine what impact has the facility environment, staff approach and the manner and form of providing the services on client's mental condition, inducing pleasant relaxation atmosphere and the overall enjoyment from the procedure. Discover insufficiencies and try to eliminate them, to help to create optimal environmental conditions for the floating procedure. Method: This thesis has the character of qualitative empiric research. For the reseach has been used the exploring method with the technic of non-standardized questionnaires with closed as well as open qeustions. Examined population is a group of twenty people, 10 persons as a first time visitors and 10 persons regularly visiting the facility. Results: The research has verfied various aspects which have the impact on mental condition and enjoyment of the people. It has been determined that on the enjoyment of this procedure have a great impact personnel and professional approach of the staff, manner and form of providing the services and the overall environment where is the procedure located. We have ascertained difference between...

The effects of extreme physical and mental stress on the human body
Braumová, Lucie ; Bartůňková, Staša (advisor) ; Majorová, Simona (referee)
Title: The effects of extreme physical and mental stress on the human body Goals: The main goal of this work was to evaluate the effect of physical stress load in a five-kilometer-long race in cross-country skiing on physical and mental functions of high school students. Methods: The investigated group consisted of 10 boys of the average age of 16 years. To evaluate their level of physical fitness and circulatory responses during cross-country stress, the maximal treadmill stress test was used. Circulatory response before, during, and after the race was monitored by a Sport-tester. To evaluate the mental background and the actual condition under the stress load, standardized questionnaires on ability to cross-country skiing, stress management strategy, degree of physical discomfort and current mental state were used. Results: The reference file tested by a stress test up to the maximum proved an above-average aerobic fitness. The extreme stress situation was a five-kilometer-long race in cross-country skiing. The results were processed and evaluated with a statistical and factual relevance. A number of correlations were made. The average SF values, which were achieved during the race, were getting near the maximum values (96% of SF max.). Even the evaluation by a Borg RPE scale attested to the...

Group exercise with elements of Pilates method in individuals with ankylosing spodylitis - comparison with control group
Bendzová, Pavlína ; Levitová, Andrea (advisor) ; Majorová, Simona (referee)
Title: Group exercise with elements of the method Pilates in individuals with ankylosing spondylitis - comparisons with the control group Objective: Find impact of group therapy with engaging Pilates method to movability of axial system, functional status, activity of disease and total health status of individuals with ankylosing spondylitis. Compare this method with compensation group motion program in individuals with ankylosing spondylitis. Methods: 26 individuals with ankylosing spondylitis of average age (38,25 ± 9,18) attending Institute of Rheumatology in Prague were chosen. Probands were split into two groups: experimental group, which were doing motion program with elements of Pilates (n=13), and control group, which were attending compensation group motion program in individuals with ankylosing spondylitis. It was empirical quantitative research, exactly comparative quasiexperiment, where was compared individual groups in between (inter-group) and, moreover, influence of individual motion programs (intra-group). Data gathering was executed twice - at the beginning of quasiexperiment (pre-test) and at the end (3 months after; post-test). Those parameters were examined: Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index for axial system region and expansion of chest, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis...

Comparison of two analysers of respiratory gases by paired examination of the same persons
Moravcová, Martina ; Vilikus, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Majorová, Simona (referee)
Title: Comparison of two analysers of respiratory gases by paired examination of the same persons. Resource: The basic assumption of laboratory measurements is precision of devices. The aim of this study was to determine if the values of spiroergometric parameters measured at the same load on the same subjects by two different devices are comparable. We compared the respiratory gas analyzer Kardiospirox (Junkalor, CR) and Oxycon Delta (Jaeger, Germany). Methods: We studied 11 subjects on both devices on the same day. The intensity and duration of load were chosen to be repeatable in the same quality after a short rest. We measured the basic spiroerometric parameters at rest, during exercise 20W, 50W, 100W and 150W for men and at rest, during exercise 20W, 40W, 80W and 120W for women, always at steady state. For statistical comparison method we used Student's paired T test. Results: Heart rate (HR), oxygen consumption (VO2.kg-1 ), ventilatory equivalent (VE/VO2), breathing frequency (DF), respiratory exchange ratio (RER) did not differ significantly. Pulmonary ventilation (VE) and expired carbon dioxide (VCO2.kg-1 ) were significantly different. The reason could be that the sensor for ventilation of Oxycon works with inhaled and exhaled air while Kardiospirox works with just exhaled air....
