Langová, Karolína ; Stupková, Michaela (advisor) ; Nováková, Tereza (referee)
Author of the thesis: Bc. Karolína Langová Title of the thesis: Evaluation of the stabilizing ability of pole dancers Objectives: The main aim of the study is to assess the static and dynamic postural stability in women regualrly practising pole dance, and to compare their stabilizing ability to women from healthy general population, who do not practise sport regularly. The next aim is to focus on the evaluation of the effect of pole dance exercise on the activity of vestibular system in static and dynamic postural stability, and compare the results to the same control group of women. Methods: The study is designed as observational, comparative and cross-sectional. 34 women within the range of 18-30 years of age took part in the study and were divided into 2 groups. Experimental group (n2=17) consisted of pole dancers, whereas women without regular physical activity (n2=17) represented control group. The measurement of static and dynamic postural stability was performed using dynamic computer posturograph NeuroCom SMART Equi Test (MCT), Rhytmic Weight Shift (RWS) and Head Shake - Sensory Organization Test (HS-SOT). Collected results of both groups were analyzed using Microsof Excel 2016 and compared. Results: In SOT protocol, no statistically significant differences were found between the groups,...

The effect of starting position in hip joints on the muscle activity of the quadriceps femoris muscle during the Reverse Nordic Hamstring Exercise evaluated using surface electromyography
Šimková, Pavlína ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Lopot, František (referee)
Title: The effect of starting position in hip joints on the muscle activity of the quadriceps femoris muscle during the Reverse Nordic Hamstring Exercise evaluated using surface electromyography. Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine whether a change in the initial position in the hip joints (in terms of rotation in hip joints) during the Reverse Nordic Hamstring Exercise (rNHE) will cause a change in muscle activity in every part of the quadriceps femoris muscle, which can be recorded by surface electromyography. Methods: Overall 40 participants were selected for this research. The selection was intentional due to the nature of this study and it participants represented a healthy population. They were randomly divided into two groups. All participants started by performing rNHE with a neutral position in hip joints, then (depending on the group they were members of) performed rNHE with internal or external rotation in the hip joints. Each variant of rNHE was performed 3 times and it took 3 seconds to perform this exercise (angular velocity 30 ř per second). During the exercise, the muscular activity of the rectus femoris, the medial vastus and lateral vastus muscles on both lower limbs was measured using surface electromyography. Results: The results show that a change in the starting...

Occurrence of flatfeet and level of postural stability of children aged 6-11 years
Baláčková, Dominika ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Stupková, Michaela (referee)
Title: Occurrence of flatfeet and level of postural stability of children aged 6-11 years Objectives: The target of my study was to do screening of postural stability and foot arch of primary school children. Another aim was to verify the incidence the relationship between functional flatfoot and postural stability among 6-11 age children with the usage of podoscope and dynamic balance test Mini BESTest. Methods: The research was processed in 7. elementary schools located in Chomutov. In total participed 227 children 6 - 11 years old. The stability was evaluated according set of tests Mini-BESTest: Balance Evaluation Systems Test ©. Flat arch was examined by podoscope with two cameras and software MultiReha®. Data were evaluated in Microsoft Office Excel and RStudio. Results: The average score of Mini BESTest of the monitored subject was 24,32. Females got higer score (24,66) compared to males (24,08). Physiological arch of the foot was diagnosed for 67 % of students, flatfoot for 14 %, highfoot for 19 %. The foot arch does not have influence on postural stability of pupils in younger school age. Keywords: Mini BESTest, stability, foot arch, functional flatfoot, primary school age.

The physiotherapy student's experiences with education during the time of COVID-19
Valová, Eliška ; Pavlů, Dagmar (advisor) ; Nováková, Tereza (referee)
Title: The physiotherapy student's experiences with education during the time of COVID-19 Objectives: The main aim of this diploma thesis was to find out what experience physiotherapy students had in teaching at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was all focused on practical teaching and the course of specialized practices. I further investigated how confident the students are when applying the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that they discussed during the limited lessons during the COVID-19 pandemic. And in what way interactions between classmates were affected in the context of the transition to distance learning. Methods: This thesis is produced in the form of quantitative research, namely a questionnaire investigation. It involved 338 physiotherapy students from all 13 faculties in the Czech Republic. The investigation took place over 4 months (November and December 2021, January and February 2022) through social networks, internet applications and by addressing faculty management via email addresses. The data was then processed in Microsoft Excel 2019, using percentage evaluation, pivot tables and statistical functions. Results: I found that students were not negatively affected by the possibility of gaining practical skills and experience from continuous practice, but on the contrary...

Czinegová, Anna ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Reckziegelová, Petra (referee)
Title: Evaluation of motor skills level of children with clubfoot by the parental questionnaire DCDQ Objectives: The aim of the diploma thesis was to evaluate the current level of motor skills of children aged 5 to 15 years with idiopathic clubfoot (IC) using parental questionnaire - The Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire (DCDQ). The work also aimed to detect the prevalence of possible dyspraxia in children with pes equinovarus congenitus in the selected age period. The partial goal of the theoretical part of this thesis was to process the issue of idiopathic clubfoot and developmental coordination disorder. Methods: The brief parent questionnaire DCDQ was used for the needs of the research, 8 non-standardized questions were added to this questionnaire. A total number of 49 responders participated in the study. The data were evaluated using Microsoft Excel and mathematical software R. Results: According to the DCDQ, 26,5 % (n = 13) of the responders were identified as to be at risk of motor difficulties. Compared to the prevalence of motorial disorders in the general population (5 - 6 %), a statistically significant difference was found. The results did not show any statistically significant differences related to sex and laterality. The children with risk of DCD performed the worst...

Author: Veronika Sosnovcová Title: Postural stability measured by the Y-balance test in girls who practice sports aerobics and sports gymnastics. Objectives: The aim of this diploma thesis is to find out the difference in postural stability in girls from sports aerobics and artistic gymnastics. Compare the athletes from different age categories and see if the postural stability improves with age. The diploma thesis also tries to clarify the effect of hypermobility on postural control. Methods: 79 girls - 42 from sports aerobics and 37 from sports gymnastics - participated in this research. Probands were from 8 years old to adult girls. All the measurements were done in the gyms of the particapating clubs from october 2021 to february 2022. The girls were measured by Y-balance test which test their dynamic postural balance and by Beihgton score which test their hypermobility. Microsoft Excel 365 and stastistic software R (version 4.0.3.) were used for evaluation of results. The results were processed using a linear regression model. As a level of statistical significance was considered α=0,005. Results: This study showed that there are statistical significant differences in postural stability between grils from sports gymnastics and sports aerobics. The significant difference is in evaluation of all...
