Idiopathic scoliosis in relation to defective position of the lower extremities and the sole of the feet
Sviteková, Sophie ; Oplatková, Lenka (advisor) ; Šafářová, Marcela (referee)
The following bachelor's thesis deals with the issue of the relationship between idiopathic scoliosis and defective position of the lower limbs and feet. At first, the thesis analyses the theoretical side of the problem - biomechanics and kinesiology of the spine and lower limbs, clasification of scoliosis and different types, postural stability, gait. In the following chapter, the thesis focuses on the issue from a practical side of view, which includes an examination of patients from different views, from behind, from the side, from the front and on a podoscope (physiosensing), which measures the static and dynamic load of the feet. As part of the examination, various assymetries of the spine and lower limbs are investigated in connection with idiopathic scoliosis. The results of all the measurements of the patients are in the final chapter compared to each other and subsequently, in the discussion part, with results examined by different studies dealing with the same issues. We try to find out if their results match with ours. The goal of this bachelor's thesis is to find out, what impact have spine curvatures on the posture of the pelvis, lower limbs, feet and also the other way around. We are also proving the mutual connection between individual body segments which together make up one complex...
The Evaluation of the Current Situation of Posture and Flat Foot Occurrence among the Young, Engaged in the Sports and not Engaged in the Sports in the West Bohemia

Title: The Evaluation of the Current Situation of Posture and Flat Foot Occurrence among the Young, Engaged in the Sports and not Engaged in the Sports, in the West Bohemia Objectives: The main objective of this thesis is to find out the current situation of posture and flat feet occurrence and to evaluate these findings together with a questionnaire survey, focused on the physical activity among a representative sample of young people. Methods: The main methods used to find out the current state of posture were a Matthias' posture test and a diagnostic device for flat feet examination with a polarized light called a podoscope. Plantographs had been evaluated according to the Kapandji score (1985). By the means of the written questionnaire, a basic data about the probands were found out, especially about their interest in the physical activity and their involvement in the sport activity. To determine the optimal weight or overweight, the body mass index BMI was used. By the probands, the BMI was calculated from their recorded body weight and height, using the personal scale Salter 9204WH3R and standalone measure Tanita HR-001. Results: It was discovered 68 % of the tested probands have a faulty posture, and by 32 % of the probands, a flatfoot among 1ř to 3ř occurred. Next, it was found out that a...
Evaluation plantogram and range of motion of the joints of the lower extremity with hallux valgus deformity.
Michálková, Kateřina ; Vláčilová, Ivana (advisor) ; Maršáková, Kateřina (referee)
Title: Evaluation plantogram and range of motion of the joints of the lower extremity with hallux valgus deformity. Objectives: The aim of my thesis, "Evaluation plantogram and range of motion of the joints of the lower extremity with hallux valgus deformity" is a statistical comparison of the aspects of the lower limbs in healthy subjects and people affected by hallux valgus deformity. It will be a comparison of the measured values, such as the degree of hallux valgus angle, range of motion of the hip joint to spin, Q - angle of the lower limb, position of hocks and strained soles. Methods: Plantographic evaluation of the strain on the soles on Podoscope, goniometry, photography, plantographic diagnostic method - Chippaux - a Šmírák and Sztriter - Godunov. Results: During this research, I observed twenty seven individuals. Five individuals had hallux valgus deformity, fourteen individuals had valgus position of the thumb and seven individuals had no deformity. In the course of evaluating plantogram and range of motion of the joints of the lower limb with hallux valgus deformity I observed degree of flat. This statement was confirmed at a significant level of p = 0.01 for both legs. Unfortunately in case of individuals with mild hallux valgus deformity, the proximo-distal, or disto-proximal...
