Benešová, Lucie ; Plevová, Kristýna (advisor) ; Fulín, Petr (referee)
This thesis deals with the effect of High Intensity Laser on soft tissues and postsurgical scars in the ankle joint area. The thesis is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part presents a summary about ankle joint traumatology and its surgical management. Further there is also information about wound healing, scar formation, their examination, assessment scales and treatments. Last but not least there is a description about the laser mechanism, effect and treatment use. The main focus point of the practical part is to discover the effect of the High Intensity Laser used on soft tissues and postsurgical scars in the ankle joint area. A sub-objective is to evaluate the high power laser effect on pain reduction in the treated area. Methods: There were 20 probands tested in the practical part (average age 42,3, SD ± 13). The intervation group (n = 10) has applied High Intensity Laser Therapy (HILT) on postsurgical scars. The control group (n = 10) haven't HILT. The Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) was used for scar evaluation and pressure algometer was used for pain evaluation. Results: There was statistically proven that High Intensity Laser Therapy has an effect on pain reduction on level of significance α = 0,05, (p = 0,0047). According to the POSAS, results...

Author: Eliška Rychnová Supervisor: Ing. Kristýna Plevová Consultant: Ing. Marie Plecháčová Title of the thesis: The impact of high intensity laser on the healing of soft tissues of the knee joint in patients after arthroscopy The bachelor's thesis deals with the issue of soft tissue healing of the knee joint after arthroscopy. The main goal of this work was to monitor the effect of high intensity laser on the healing of soft tissues of the knee joint after arthroscopy. The work consists of theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part focuses on the description of the anatomy and biomechanics of the knee joint. Further summarizes information about the scar, its formation, types, care options and rating scales. The technical parameters and effects of the laser with a focus on the high intensity laser are also described here. Then, based on the data collection and analysis, the current state of this matter in the Czech Republic and abroad was described and summarized. The research includes 16 studies, which were selected on the basis of selected keywords, data actuality, validity and at the same time their pros and cons were considered. In the practical part 4 case reports of patients after arthroscopy of the knee joint were processed. Only patients after meniscus surgery were included in the...
