Strength intervention program used as knee injury prevention by soccer players U14 categories
Lejbl, Jakub ; Hráský, Pavel (advisor) ; Kaplan, Aleš (referee)
Title: Strength intervention program used as knee injury prevention by soccer players U14 categories Objectives: The main objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a strength intervention program aimed at strengthening the lower limbs. The secondary aim was then to increase the strength capacity of the participating probands (players), with a possible reduction in muscle asymmetries between the dominant and non-dominant limbs with an increase in their H/Q ratios. Methods: The research population consisted of players of the U14 category of the football club FK Viktoria Žižkov, who were randomly divided into control and experimental groups. Both groups underwent entry and exit laboratory diagnostic measurements aimed at determining selected parameters of body composition and isokinetic muscle strength. The initial laboratory testing was followed by a six-week strength intervention program (experimental group), after which both groups underwent baseline/control measurements. The results of both groups were tabulated and compared with each other. Results: The intervention showed a positive effect in reducing lower limb muscle strength asymmetries in the experimental group at all measured speeds. Keywords: Lower limbs muscles, knee joint, laboratory testing, preventive procedure,...

Validation of the MicroFET dynamometer for measurement of lower limb strength
Illek, Matouš ; Bátorová, Michaela (referee) ; Šťastný, Jan (advisor)
This term paper focuses on the assessment of lower limb isometric strength using the MicroFet2 handheld dynamometer in comparison to the IsoMed2000 laboratory dynamometer. The introduction highlights the key importance of measuring this strength to monitor the training process and identify muscle imbalances that may contribute to injury. Until recently, this measurement has been difficult due to the impracticality and high cost of available devices. The aim of this study is to analyze and compare the results of isometric force measurements made by the two devices, MicroFet2 and IsoMed2000, with emphasis on the validity and reliability of the handheld dynamometer. The pilot measurements were performed on the main movement of the knee joint, namely flexion and extension. Validity was assessed by comparing the measured values of both dynamometers. In this day and age, where measuring devices play a key role in the sporting world, it is crucial to investigate whether the portable and relatively affordable MicroFet2 handheld dynamometer can provide accurate and reliable results to compete with the IsoMed2000 laboratory dynamometer. The paper concludes that the MicroFet2 handheld dynamometer provides an affordable and convenient alternative for isometric force measurement. However, the possible influence of various factors on the results and the limited reliability of the dynamometer are pointed out. The paper proposes a new test method to improve the reliability of the measurements and discusses the results in the context of practical use in sports teams. Statistical analyses are proposed for further research that could contribute to an objective comparison between the two types of dynamometers.

The use of vacuum compression therapy on patients after knee surgery
BUŠEK, Matěj
In this bachelor thesis the main topic is the effect of vacuum compression therapy in patients after knee surgery. First, the basic anatomy of the knee joint was described, summarizing the structures that, when damaged, are indications for knee surgery. Next, the possibilities of knee joint damage as well as knee joint surgery options were described. As this bachelor thesis came from a spa setting and one of the main objectives was to investigate the use of vacuum compression therapy in a comprehensive spa treatment system, spa treatment options for patients after knee surgery were also described. In its practical part, the research population of five probands who were prescribed vacuum-compression therapy in their set of treatments was examined. With these probands, their knee joint development during the spa treatment was subsequently investigated using entry and exit aspect and palpation, goniometric measurements and somatometry. Also, one of the outcome factors of this undergraduate thesis was the subjective view of this issue and this was obtained through a semi-structured interview. A total of 5 probands participated in this research for this Bachelor's thesis. All of them had experienced vacuum compression therapy for the first time and therefore the semi-structured interview output made sense and therefore the probands' responses were not influenced by their previous experience of this form of physical therapy. Exit examinations concluded that their condition had improved, both in range of motion of the knee joint and in the length of the knee joint circumference, which indicated improved swelling rates, as confirmed by the facet and palpation examinations. At the same time, through interviews, a positive perception of vacuum compression therapy was found by patients who underwent this therapy. The majority of them reported a positive attitude towards the therapies they had undergone and also felt that their health status had improved after all applications of vacuum-compression therapy.
