Control of low-cost prosthetic limb using EMG sensors
Šafran, Jindřich ; Brablc, Martin (referee) ; Rajchl, Matej (advisor)
This Bachelor thesis is about the general design, construction and model assembling of the prosthetic arm. Its programming and controlling of the robotic part are also included. The thesis is divided into five chapters. In the first chapter, the anatomy of forearm is analysed and described. Its anatomical structure is the theoretical base on which the final model is designed and constructed. Following, second chapter, comprises the analysis of prosthetic mechanisms according to the historical development up until today. And this chapter also contains the production of the designed forearm-hand-model itself. The third chapter describes the EMG diagnostic method and the process of manufacturing of each compartment of controller device used for controlling the mechanism of the designed model. Next, chapter number four contains gaining and processing of the data from testing of the measuring device. In the last fifth chapter, the programming of the made forearm-hand-model in various development environments is described. All the results and gained knowledge, are evaluated and described in the conclusion of the Bachelor thesis.

Metallic materials used for dental prostheses
Kožiol, Martin ; Kohout, Jan (referee) ; Věchet, Stanislav (advisor)
The topic of the bachelor's thesis is the use of metallic prosthesis and implants in dental medicine. The main point is to elaborate the summary of metallic materials and their mutual comparision in the terms of properties and individual application. For the clearly understand, there has to be defined a biocompatibility which along with mechanical properties serves for categorizing materials capable of application in the form of dental prosthesis. At the end is discussed about future of metallic materials in dental medicine.
Design of lower-limb prostheses
Koutecký, Tomáš ; Ždímal, Pavel (referee) ; Paloušek, David (advisor)
The goal of this bachelor's thesis is to give an overview of the current state of lower limb prostheses after amputation between the hip and the knee. It deals with the human gait, its analysis and with deviations in gait with the prosthesis. It also describes basic division of lower limb prostheses. The main part is the description of these prostheses designs and especially the design of main components and general overview of available types.
The role of the radiographer in stomatology
STEINEROVÁ, Karolína
This bachelor's thesis focuses on radiological imaging methods and their use in dentistry. Radiological devices have been developing rapidly recently and have become a common part of dental outmous clinics. They are used not only in the field of dental and surgical dentistry, but also in aesthetic dental treatments. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical parts. The aim is to map the advantages and disadvantages of each type of device and theri suitability of their use in dentistry. The theoretical part deals with basic anatomical concepts of the orofacial field, an overview of radiological diagnostic devices, their use in the field of dentistry and specially aesthetic dentistry, and the associated radiation protection of workers and patients. Furthermore, it focuses on the basic aesthetic anomalies of the teeth and their treatment, which usually precedes the imaging of the target area. The second part of the thesis was compiled on the basis of a questionnaire survey conducted. Two questionnaires were created concerning the use of imaging methods in the aesthetic repair of teeth, the equipment of dental workplaces and access to patients from the point of view of imaging and radiation protection from the point of view of patients and dentists. The aim was to answer research questions about the use of radiology in aesthetic dentistry and the level of information patients receive about their radiological examinations. According to research, the largest representation is the intraoral type of imaging, namely bitewing image, which is suitable for basic diagnosis of dental anomalies as well as changes in the structure of the tooth. This method is easy, fast and practically without any extra burden put on the patient. The most commonly performed aesthetic procedure turned out to be treatment with orthodontic apparatus, in which imaging of the original position of the teeth is necessary. The least used method in the field of dentistry is magnetic resonance imaging, due to the availability and creation of artifacts in images from dental metal fillings. Research shows that patients are not properly informed about the course, necessity or consequences of radiological examination. Although the dose of ionizing radiation is negligible in dental imaging examinations, the doctor should prevent and inform the patient of the patient's concerns. More than half of respondents consider X-rays to be health-burdensome.

Case Study of Physiotherapy Treatment of a Patient with Diagnosis of Left-Sided Above-Knee Amputation
Citová, Adéla ; Neuwirthová, Svatava (advisor) ; Nováková, Tereza (referee)
Title: A Case Study of Physiotherapeutic Treatment of a Patient with Diagnosis of Left-Sided Above-Knee Amputation. Aim: The aim of this bachelor thesis is to summarize the theoretical knowledge and rehabilitation care of a patient with this diagnosis, as well as a case study of a patient with this diagnosis. Method: This study is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part contains the lower limb functional anatomy, theoretical information about lower limb ischemic disease, about amputations, rehabilitation options after amputation and options of prosthesis. It also includes an evaluation of the effects of therapeutic procedures. The practical part contains a case study of a patient after left-sided above-knee amputation. This part includes the entrance examination, the course of therapy, the final examination and the evaluation of the effect of therapy. Results: The therapy described in the practical part of this study was able to verticalize the pacient and manage to walk with prosthesis on a french crutches. Overall, the therapy has led to an improvement of patient's condition. Key words: Amputation, Lower limbs, Lower limb ischemic disease, Physiotherapy, Prosthetics
