Change in Blood Flow in the Paravertebral Muscles during the Application of Compression Therapy
Jandera, Tomáš ; Pavlů, Dagmar (advisor) ; Vláčilová, Ivana (referee)
Title: A Change in Blood Flow in the Paravertebral Muscles during the Application of Compression Therapy Objectives: The main objective of this thesis is to investigate the effect of compression therapy on the blood supply to the paravertebral muscles when applying flossing tape around the trunk. The second aim is to theoretically introduce the compression methods used in practice to the readers. Methods: The study involved 33 probands who completed a questionnaire to obtain basic anamnestic information before the measurement. Furthermore, the range of motion of the lumbar spine was examined into flexion using a modified Schober distance and the electrode of the Précisé 8008 device was placed on the right paravertebral muscles at approximately the level of the Th/L transition to determine blood flow. Flossing tape was applied for 2 minutes around the trunk at the lumbar spine. After removal of the tape, the range of motion of the lumbar spine into flexion was measured again. The obtained data were processed by using descriptive statistics, paired T-test and linear model. The statistical significance for all T-tests was assessed at a critical significance level of 0.05. Results: Changes in the blood flow of the paravertebral muscles during and after the application of flossing have been proven....
A Change in Blood Flow to the Muscle during Compression Therapy

Title: A Change in Blood Flow to the Muscle during Compression Therapy Objectives: The main objective of this work is to determine the change in muscle blood flow during compression therapy, specifically during flossing. Another objective is to get acquainted with compression techniques. Methods: In our work, we used an anamnesty questionnaire to get basic information about probabilities. Flossing was applied to the right shoulder for two minutes. The flow measurement was carried out on Précisé 8008 and the data were evaluated using descriptive statistics, testing using a linear model, an ANOVA and T-test. Results: We found that the development of blood flow to the biceps brachii muscle during and after application is variable. After application of flossing, there are statistically significant changes in blood flow to the upper limb (where flossing was applied) and subsequently, after application, there is an improvement in muscle blood flow (TcpO2). There is also a change in blood flow to the opposite limb (where flossing has not been applied), but this change is statistically significant at the time of the lowest blood flow to the limb where flossing was applied and 15 minutes after the lowest perfusion was measured. Furthermore, flossing was found not to return rapidly to baseline in the upper...
