3D analysis of rapid alternating movements in spasticity
Hradecká, Marie ; Hojková, Klára (advisor) ; Honzátková, Lenka (referee)
Spasticity is a manifestation of a central motoneuron disorder; the cause of the disorder may be trauma, ischemia, hemorrhage, inflammation or tumor. Even nowadays, it is difficult to define the pathophysiological mechanisms of spasticity, as well as to establish treatment. The aim of this study was to examine the immediate and long-term effect of rapid alternating movements training on stride length in the affected lower limb in spastic paresis. The theoretical part is devoted to a summary of the knowledge about central motoneuron syndrome, examination and its treatment. The practical part includes examination and evaluation of the effect of of rapid alternating movements exercises using 3D kinematic analysis and a questionnaire.
Effects of different physical activities on cardiovascular functions after spinal cord injury
Svobodná, Magdalena ; Honzátková, Lenka (advisor) ; Našincová, Zuzana (referee)
The impact on health, mental state and quality of life in people after spinal cord injury is enormous. Significant impairment occurs not only of sensorimotor functions. The autonomic nervous system is also disturbed to some extent, which is very closely related to the management of cardiovascular functions (and heart rate). The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of different physical activities on heart rate in people after spinal cord injury. The study included 30 people in the chronic stage after spinal cord injury, which were divided into 3 groups according to the neurological level of the spinal cord lesion in tetraplegics (lesion C1-C8), paraplegics with high thoracic lesion (T1-T6), and paraplegics with lesion from T6 below. Each proband completed 4 exercise tests on sports simulators (rowing, kayaking and cross-country trainer and Rotren) and peak heart rate values (SFpeak) were measured after reaching the subjective maximum load (according to the Borg RPE scale). The values of SFpeak were then statistically processed, evaluated and compared - within groups between sports simulators and between groups. The results of the statistical processing show that the sports simulators are not different in terms of reaching the top SFpeak. Although differences between peak heart rate values...
The purpose of physiotherapy in high-performance cycling for the physically challenged, focused on possible complications prevention
Hanušová, Renata ; Honzátková, Lenka (advisor) ; Sládková, Petra (referee)
My bachelor work is occupying with prevention and compensation problems of efficiency handcycling with handicapped sportsmen. Physically handicapped persons have an opportunity of sport activities relative same as persons with no handicap. Important is to look on their actual state of health. Especially height of spinal lesion affects in the handcycling choice of race handbike, suitable training plan and finaly also opportunities of use of compensative methods. Compensative methods are very important because of prevention against source of possibly complications. In the theoretic part of bachelor work I am occupying with neurological diagnosis of spinal leesion. Further familiarization with efficiency handcycling and with handbike. In the next charter I am devoting to problems of the most often arising complications of efficiency sport with physically handicapped. This chapter is divided on anatomy-kinesiologic and pathologic part. Practical part of my bachelor work contains research of the issue, which is analyzed by study of two casuistries. Research is especially occupied by the effect of therapy applied in clinic casuistries on two clients. Part of practical part is also the term of bachelor work and the research question. Further the description of chosen compensative methods of handcycling....
