Title: Monitoring the effect of short-term application of selected sleep hygiene rules on postural stability Aims: The aim of this work was to monitor the influence of short-term application of selected sleep hygiene rules on postural stability using a Computerized Dynamic Posturography NeuroCom Smart EquiTest machine in healthy young individuals. Methods: This work is characterized as an experimental pilot study. The research set consists of 20 individuals (n=20). The set was then divided into an experimental group (n1=10) and a control group (n2=10). The probands were approached based on previously defined criteria (healthy young adults, higher education and university students between 20 and 30 years of age, the average age in the experimental group (n1=10) was 24,74 2,56 years, the average age in the control group (n2=10) was 25,39 2,97 years,). The method of proband choice was non-probabilistic selection the snowball method. The measurements were performed at the Laboratory of Applied Kinesiology of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Charles University. A Computerized Dynamic Posturography NeuroCom Smart EquiTest machine was used to assess and evaluate the postural stability. The testing protocol included the following tests: Sensory Organisation Test, Motor Control Test, Limits...

The main objective: The main objective of this bachelor's thesis was to map the occurrence of flat foot in senior students of the bachelor's subject Physiotherapy at the Third Faculty of Medicine, Charles University. Methodology: A group of 20 healthy denizens of the daily bachelor's study programme, ranging from 21 to 42 in age, were tested. The selected set was divided into two age categories, specifically into the "ages 21-25 (including students aged 25)" category and into the "over 25 years old" category. A plantogram, also known as a podogram, was obtained using podoscopy, then the plantogram was analysed in the SketchUp 2018 computer programme. The evaluated variable was the Chippaux-Smirak index. Results: It was found, that the measured Chippaux-Smirak index ranged from 18,6 % to 40,4 % for the left foot and from 12,0 % to 26,8 % for the right foot, respectively. Conclusion: Flat foot in this specific set of tested individuals was not diagnosed. Key words: plantar vault, flat foot, plantogram, index Chippaux-Šmiřák
