Structural members of prostheses of upper extremities
Mužný, Lukáš ; Opl, Miroslav (referee) ; Matějka, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the upper limb prosthesis. The target of the project is to create an overview of the distribution and types of prostheses and their individual elements. In particular, it deals with the problem myoelctric prostheses. Provides information on the biomechanics of human arm, specifies options grip of the object, gives an overview of the research centers and their substitutes developed upper limbs. It also focuses on the possibility of prostheses control by myoelectric signals.

Electromyography in therapy
Janoušek, Oto ; Hrubeš, Jan (referee) ; Kolářová, Jana (advisor)
The Master’s thesis describes electromyographic methods and it is focused on one of them - myofeedback. There are described principle, realization and application of myofeedback in this thesis. There is explained positive influence of using therapeutic games in therapeutic process. The diploma thesis deals with a realization and description of MFB-Amos apllication which allows to upgrade an electromyograph by myofeedback enabling of using the therapeutic games. Application allows measure of EMG signal and consecutive analysis, and offers three therapeutic games.

Therapeutic game implementation with use of EMG signal
Drozd, Tomáš ; Kolářová, Jana (referee) ; Hesko, Branislav (advisor)
This bachelor thesis describes electromyography which we can use for biofeedback. At first, it describes electromyography and methods of measuring. Then biofeedback is described and its usage for therapeutic purposes or therapeutic games. Also it introduces BITalino device which represents low-cost solution for biofeedback. For practical uses there is provided a program written in C++ which includes Super Mario World. Appliation also draws measuered signal and parameteres calcuted from it.

Acceleration and motion of upper limbs
Novotný, Adam ; Kolář, Radim (referee) ; Kolářová, Jana (advisor)
Purpose of this work is mainly the description of electrical plots in skeletal muscles and secondarily experimental verification and description of methods connected with measuring and evaulating biosignals. The theoretical presentation of muscle physiology facts is supplemented with an experiment using pair t-test, which describes procedures leading to evaluating particular hypotheses (the measured muscle is biceps brachii). In this work, the biosignal is an EMG signal, thus the electrical activity of muscle. Therefore, the main objective of this work is not only about using EMG as an examination method, but also about showing a complex view at the recording, processing and evaluating of EMG signal. These facts are supplemented with programm application which is showing the way working with EMG signals and also the possibilities of algorithm development in such signals.

Effectiveness of rehabilitation of the upper limb
Rexová, Natálie ; Kolářová, Jana (referee) ; Horáková, Pavla (advisor)
The purpose of this bachelor‘s thesis is to examine muscle bioelectrical activity and its measuring in the BIOPAC system. To better understand this subject this bachelor’s thesis takes interest in a muscle tissue and all its main structure. It is also focused on electromyography as a significant diagnostic method in medicine. Subsequently there is an introduction to the practical part of bachelor‘s thesis. In this chapter the main focus is aimed at monitoring the parameters of the surface EMG signal of brachioradialis muscle. The measurements are collected in three phases, before, during and at the end of the proposed process of the strengthening of brachiotadialis muscle. The measured values are statistically processed and then interpreted. The final chapter seeks to specify the motivational activities and the enhancement of effectiveness of exercise.

Electromyography, measurement of muscle electric activity
Kořínek, Peter ; Provazník, Ivo (referee) ; Kolářová, Jana (advisor)
The task of this thesis was to become acquainted with the issue of measuring of muscle electric activity.In the theoretical part we became familiar with the computer measuringsystem BIOPAC and its options to measure monitored magnitudes. This continue with practical part, in which we watch the problematic according to a theory in a group of people. We learned data with BIOPAC according to protocol of the result of physicaleffort influence on EMG. In the end the results were statistically analysed. The data as a product offallowing research were verified by hypothesis. In thelast step, the data are presented in graphical user interface development environment. After loading of the EMG of measured person, the process are displayed-without, with and after the power with onus. It is possible to choose from different analyses.

Neuromuscular control of motor units in strength and coordination dependant tasks for lower limbs
Šádek, Petr ; Otáhal, Jakub (advisor) ; Ravnik, David (referee) ; Vláčilová, Ivana (referee)
Title: Neuromuscular control of motor units in strength and coordination dependent tasks for lower limbs. Objective: To compare muscle activity on the level of motor units through decomposition of surface electromyography signal from vastus medialis during given strength and coordination oriented movement tasks and to describe eventual differences in the parameters of tracked motor units in regards to given movement tasks. To assess the quality of chosen method for describing the muscle activity control on the level of motor units for further possible applications in the research and clinical environment. To summarize relevant knowledge acquired through the decomposition method of surface electromyography signal regarding the control of movement, motor unit activation and other relevant informations for clinical environment. Method: Theoretical part of the work presents the decomposition method, the process of its evolution and its constituent parts in the context of electromyographic evaluation of muscles along with selected chapters of neuromuscular kinesiology on the level of motor units. The experimental portion of presented thesis was carried out on 12 probands in the age of 23,2 (+- 5,3) years, who were instructed to perform the selected movement tasks of single leg squat in two different...

Comparative analyses of muscle activation lower extremities during running at different surface
Král, David ; Bačáková, Radka (advisor) ; Hojka, Vladimír (referee)
Title: Comparative analyses of muscle activation lower extremities during running at different surface. Objectives: The aim of this bachelor's thesis is to compare the level of activation of selected muscles of the lower extremities and the relative timing of these activations. Realize measurements on three types of surface: tartan, grass, sand and find out the differences in activations of selected muscles according to the surface. Methods: In this thesis, I used the method of analysis and the method of comparison. I applied the analysis method in the analysis of the measured signals for the running step and the comparison method in the section comparing average running step cycles from different surface types. Results: I found out that running on the tartan, acitvates all the monitored muscles in more than 75% of the average cycles within 10% of the running step time period. For softer surfaces - grass and sand, my research did not support the hypothesis, that the softer the surface is, the greater are the differences in the activation of individual muscles versus tartan. Further I found out that on sandy and grassy surfaces, the average activation time of the muscles which are more involved in stabilizing the ankle and foot, i.e. tibialis anterior and peroneus longus, increases. On a sandy...
