Monitoring of the core muscles activity in postural stability examination by Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization tests using surface electromyography in patients with low back pain
Zajíčková, Jana ; Valouchová, Petra (advisor) ; Mačkalová, Petra (referee)
The Master's thesis is focused on monitoring of the core muscles and m. biceps femoris activity in postural stability examination by Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization tests using surface electromyography in patients with LBP. Trunk extension test, trunk flexion test and squat test were chosen. The aim of this study was comparing muscle activity timing, symmetry of muscle activation and average activation between healthy subjects and patients with LBP. The changes of muscle activation pattern were observed and average activation was determined. In theoretical part the principles of DNS, surface electromyography and the relationship between postural stabilization and LBP are discussed. Two groups were measured - patients with LBP and a control group, 20 subjects together. The onset times were measured and rank of activation for each test and for each subject was determined. Then the average order for whole group was specified. Measured data were evaluated according to Wilcoxon signed-rank test. In average activation there was analysed change of activation in time. Results were compared between two measured groups. There is significant difference between the two groups in the rank of activation of m. ES l. dx. in trunk extension test and m. EO in squat test. Assymetry in timing of the right and left...

Monitoring the effect of physiotherapy from the view of a patient with discopathy using Oswestry disability index Subtitle: By means of Robin McKenzie method
Šrytr, Martin ; Šímová, Alena (advisor) ; Leško, Juraj (referee)
This thesis is focused on the treatment of chronic lumbar back pain using Robin McKenzie method as a therapeutic approach. The theoretical part deals with the physiology of the spine, its pathophysiology and complications related to that. It also presents the McKenzie method, its fundamentals and clinical use. It also describes the Oswestry disability index, which was chosen as a subjective tool for evaluating the effectiveness of therapies from the patient's perspective. The practical part aims to answer the question whether the McKenzie method is a suitable tool for influencing chronic back pain. To answer this question a qualitative research in the form of case studies was made. The key role for assessing the effect of therapy was played by intensity of pain, which was evaluated by the Oswestry questionnaire, dynamics of the spine and neurological symptoms. The results, which were concluded during therapies, argue in favour of the Robin McKenzie method, which is a suitable therapeutic approach to influence chronic lumbar back pain.

Effect of Kinesio Taping on lower back pain
Klesalová, Lucie ; Hamarová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Zavrtálková, Lucie (referee)
ANOTATION Author: Lucie Klesalova Institution: Rehabilition clinic LF in Hradec Kralove Name of the bachelor's thesis: Effects of Kinesio Taping on lower back pain Supervisor: Mgr. Zuzana Hamarova Number of pages: 70 Nuber of annexes: 19 Year: 2015 Key words: kinesiotape, effects of Kinesio Taping, techniques of Kinesio Taping, lowerback pain This bachelor thesis is focused on the theoretical overview of the method of Kinesio Taping. It introduces the effects and ways of kinesiotape applications, it points to the possible indications and contraindications for this method. The practical part examines a set of 15 probands with a lower back pain. The aim was to evaluate whether a single application of kinesiotape could reduce pain in the lower back. The data was collected through questionnaires and kinesiological examination. The results were recorded for better clarity in graphs and tables.
