Janderová, Petra ; Plevová, Kristýna (advisor) ; Motáková, Zuzana (referee)
This theoretical-practical bachelor thesis focuses on dysfunction of the deep stabilisation system of the spine in female basketball players. Basketball is an unilateral sport depending on which hand we use to shoot or dribble, and therefore unilateral overloading occurs. This results in the development of muscle imbalances, painful syndromes, and a higher risk of injury. The theoretical part addresses several thematic areas important for understanding the issue. These include posture and its components, the deep stabilizing system of the spine, specifically its anatomy, functions, dysfunctions, and examination. Another area is a summary of developmental kinesiology and its most significant periods during childhood. Proper child development is the foundation of the Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) concept included in the fourth thematic area. The fifth theme covers muscle imbalances, their types, and causes. The last section offers a comprehensive insight into basketball itself, analyzing its movement patterns, most stressed muscles, and common injuries resulting from this sport. The main goal of the practical part was to apply elements of DNS in the physiotherapeutic intervention for 5 young female basketball players with proven dysfunction of the deep stabilizing system of the spine....

Physiotherapy with dynamic neuromuscular stabilization elements in oncological patients after mastectomy
Háblová, Karolina ; Aujezdská, Eva (advisor) ; Plevová, Kristýna (referee)
The bachelor's thesis deals with physiotherapy with elements of dynamic neuromuscular stabilization in oncological patients after breast ablation. The aim of the practical part is to use objective measurements to evaluate the benefit of preoperative and early postoperative physiotherapy on the patient's overall recovery. The evaluation took place three times - as a part of preoperative treatment, after surgery and after the end of the physiotherapy intervention. For this, postural locomotion tests (diaphragm test, intra-abdominal pressure test, quadruped rock forward test and test of a 3-month-old supine position), measurements of inspiratory and expiratory chest circumferences, range of motion measurements on the upper extremities and cervical spine, and measurements of arm circumferences were used. It was found that physiotherapy had a positive effect on the overall recovery of the patients. In addition, the elements of the DNS have been shown to be a suitable adjunct to the analytic exercise and could be used along with other proven methods in post-mastectomy women-patients. Keywords: Dynamic neuromuscular stabilization, breast cancer, muscle dysbalance, physiotherapy, mastectomy
