Husák, Lukáš ; Hošková, Blanka (advisor) ; Malá, Michaela (referee)
Subject: Carpal tunnel syndrome in university students and people aged 40 - 60 Objectives: The main goal of this work is to determine the population incidence of carpal tunnel syndrome in a group of university students aged 25 - 30 years and a group of adults aged 40 - 60 years. Methods: The research consists of a quantitative method. A questionnaire containing three provocative maneuvers was used to obtain data. These were the Phanel's Test, Compression Test and Wrist Flexion Test. The research was supplemented by measuring the hand grip using a dynamometer, which was to confirm the occurrence of carpal tunnel syndrome. Two groups of probands were tested. The first group were university students aged 25 - 30 and the second group were adults aged 40 - 60. For the measured data was performed statistical analysis. Results: The result of the research assumes one occurrence in a group of university students aged 25 - 30 and two occurrences in a group of adults aged 40 - 60. These probands have three positive examinations and confirmed by a dynamometer still, the occurrence is just probable, that would need to be confirmed by electromyography.

Sochová, Jitka ; Hamarová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Savková, Pavlína (referee)
Author: Jitka Sochová Institution: Department of Rehabilitation Medicine The Faculty of Medicine in Hradec Králové Title: Kinesiotherapy and physical therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome Supervisor: Mgr. Zuzana Hamarová Pages: 128 Inserts: 7 The year of presentation: 2013 Keywords: Carpal tunnel, rehabilitation therapy, entrapment syndromes, electromyography This Bachelor Diploma deals with carpal tunnel syndrome. In theoretical part I focus on anatomy, lead and innervation of the median nerve, etiology, pathophysiology, classification of carpal tunnel syndrome according to clinical findings, diagnosis, treatment, complications and prevention of carpal tunnel syndrome. Noninvasive physiotherapy method of carpal tunnel syndrome include: physical therapy, mobilization and manipulation therapy, techniques on neurodynamic base, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and kinesiotaping. The practical part contains two case reports. The first case study deals with the physical therapy treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome by conservative method. The second case study deals with the physical therapy treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome by operative method. The aim of this work is to determine and compare the effectiveness of treatment.
