Changes of a foot arch during pregnancy
Cikrytová, Markéta ; Babková, Lenka (advisor) ; Demeková, Júlia (referee)
There are many changes in a woman's body during pregnancy. This bachelor's thesis deals with the alterations of the arch of the foot and the mechanisms that can inflict it. Form of the thesis is review. Opening chapters sum the anathomy of the foot, the kinesiology, the pathologic kinesiology and important changes during the pregnancy. Main chapter deals with up to date knowledge about the alterations of the arch and related alterations of the pressures on the sole of the foot, as well as the alterations of size, volume and dimesions of the foot. Two case reports of pregnant women are part of the thesis. Comparison of a studies is presented in the discussion, followed by corelation of the results of the case reports with the ones from studies. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
The effect of incentive spirometry and postural loading on activity ofvrespiratory muscles
Sakaláš, Radovan ; Truc, Michal (advisor) ; Demeková, Júlia (referee)
Master thesis "The effect of incentive spirometry and postural lability on activity of respiratory muscles" deals mainly with electromyographic activity of respiratory muscles while using incentive spirometry. In the first part the following aspects of breathing are covered: kinesiology, pattern, work, and the respiratory and postural function of respiratory muscles. The next section describes the main types of incentive spirometers and indications and contraindications of their usage. Furthermore, the thesis defines neurophysiological basics needed for electromyographic usage and the influence on its signal quality. The main part of the thesis deals with the issues of incentive spirometer usage and postural lability and the effects on activity of the respiratory muscles. The final section suggests recommendations regarding the suitable position for effective respiratory-postural function training using incentive spirometry. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Current physiotherapeutic approaches to the treatment of phantom pain after amputations
Posekaná, Pavlína ; Demeková, Júlia (advisor) ; Kálal, Jan (referee)
This bachelor thesis is carried out in the form of research with the aim to summarize phantom limb pain issues in physiotherapeutic practice. The general part describes the causes of phantom pain origin in central and peripheral nervous system and summarizes facts about amputation as a surgical intervention, it's classification and possible complications. It also summarizes all familiar pharmacological and nonpharmacological medical approaches used for phantom limb pain treatment. The main part is focused on three currently most effective methods used to treat phantom limb pain in physiotherapy - mirror therapy, virtual reality and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation. Next part of this thesis is two case interpretations of patients with lower limb amputation. Both patients undertake six weeks of mirror therapy and they described it's effect as positive. The efficiency has been evaluated according to a questionnaire.
Static and dynamic analysis of plantar pressure, spinal and pelvic motion in diagnosis femoroacetabular impingement
Štefková, Silvia ; Valouchová, Petra (advisor) ; Demeková, Júlia (referee)
Aim of this thesis is to evaluate distribution of plantar pressure and the movement of spine and pelvis in patients diagnosed with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. The results were obtained using Diers pedoscan system which can record the pressure distribution of feet during stance and motion. Also Diers formetric III 4D system was used to obtain photogrammetic records of spine and pelvis movement. We use rasterstereography based on Moiré topografy. Measured data represent three dimensional model of back surface during static or dynamic analysis. In addition we evaluated the effect of treatment using Dynamic neuromuscular stabilization. Obtained results were statistically processed. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Postpoliomyelitis syndrome - etiology and RHB treatment options
Mejsnarová, Alena ; Demeková, Júlia (advisor) ; Kobesová, Alena (referee)
The bachelor thesis called "Postpoliomyelitis syndrome - etiology and RHB treatment options" deals with issues of this illness, officially recognized as a separate diagnosis until less than thirty years ago. The postpoliomyelitis syndrome can develop in individuals who have experienced poliomyelitis, an infectious viral disease affecting cells of the spinal anterior horns, in their childhood or youth. The main symptoms of this syndrome are: muscle weakness, increased fatigue, muscle and joint pain. They usually appear after a period lasting at least 15 years after primary infection, during which the health state of these individuals is relatively stable. The thesis presents a wide range of pathophysiological processes responsible for the etiology of these so-called late effects of polio. It also deals with the clinical picture, diagnosis and reflects the mental condition of the affected individuals. A large part of this thesis is addressed to therapy of postpolio syndrome, especially rehabilitation, which is an important part of comprehensive care of these patients. It is a literature retrieval of available, mostly foreign sources, dealing with this topic. Also one case report is described at the end of the theoretical part. It includes medical history, examination and treatment of a patient with...
Distant effects of muscle electrostimulation
Koláček, Michal ; Slabý, Kryštof (advisor) ; Demeková, Júlia (referee)
This work is trying to identify possible non-stimulatory effects and distant effects of muscle electrostimulation musculus quadriceps femoris based on a literature search. Furthermore evaluates the influence of High Tone Electrical Stimulation (HTEMS) muscles of lower limbs on the activity of the autonomic nervous system, expressed by heart rate variability, a spectral power in the individual frequency bands. Randomized crossover study involved 15 healthy subjects (7 men and 8 women), average age 24.4 ± 2,5 years. Heart rate variability was evaluated in two situations: the situation without the application HTEMS and the situation with the aplication of HTEMS. Electrostimulation was done with HITOP 191. The results did not show statistically significant differences in all monitored components. The study also dealt with the reproducibility of measurements of perception and motor threshold for HTEMS.
Use surface electromyography in the clinical practice
Dobisová, Anna ; Crhonková, Radka (advisor) ; Demeková, Júlia (referee)
Surface electromyography is a non-invasive method of examination. Surface electrodes localized on the skin above the muscle record action potentials of particular muscles' motor units. Acquired EMG recordings enable to assess muscle activity, muscle fatigue or recruitment of particular muscles during the motion (timing) and muscle coordination. Modern EMG devices are compatible with a scale of sensors that record other biosignals and are able to synchronize them with EMG records. That's why SEMG is applied in neurology, physiotherapy, ergonomics, biomechanics, orthopaedics, prosthetics, sport and in other spheres. As a non-invasive method it has its advantages, but of course its limits as well. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Disorders of temporomandibular joint disc
Keilová, Marie ; Bitnar, Petr (advisor) ; Demeková, Júlia (referee)
The bachelor thesis is about disorders of temporomandibular joints. It focuses mainly on explication of the diseases that affect joint disc. It provides complete inforrnation about the etiology of the diseases and their clinical symptoms. The main aim of the thesis was to summarize inforrnation about treatment for those disorders. It has focused on conservative treatment, mainly on physiotherapy. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
