Downhill skiing with exarticulation of the knee joint
Hruša, Filip ; Hruša, Jan (advisor) ; Strnad, Pavel (referee)
Thesis title: Downhill skiing with exarticulation of the knee joint. Main objectives: Evaluate prosthetic options for people with exarticulation in the knee joint for downhill skiing on two skis. Goals: 1) Suggest prosthetic solutions for downhill skiing with exarticulation of the knee joint. 2) On the force measuring plate L.A.S.A.R.-Posture, measure gravity center of skier on proposed prosthetic systems and evaluate substantial features for downhill skiing. Method: The work is empirical-theoretical nature. The methods are comparative analysis and observation with subsequent description. The monitored variables were skiers center of gravity position, and angles of the ankle and the knee joint at the neutral position and the base downhill ski position on the power measuring plate L.A.S.A.R.-Posture. Becouse of complexity and uniqueness of this issue, we chose a case study. Results: In our thesis we verify that there are available prothesis in the Czech Republic, which allows to people with exarticulation of the knee joint, safe skiing on two skis.

Case Study of Physiotherapy Treatment of a Patient with the Diagnosis of Unilateral Below Knee Amputation
Palasová, Ivana ; Reckziegelová, Petra (advisor) ; Hamouzová, Dita (referee)
Title: Case Study of Physiotherapy Treatment of a Patient with the Diagnosis of Unilateral Below Knee Amputation Objectives: Summary of theoretical knowledge on the issue of amputation and processing of case study of the patient with the diagnosis of unilateral below knee amputation. Methods: The general part includes the literature review of texts about anatomy, biomechanics, amputations and prosthetics of lower limb. The thesis is focused on the amputations of diabetes mellitus patients. The rehabilitation of patients after lower limb amputation is described there. The special part consists of the case history, differential balance, input complex kinesiology examination and therapeutic plan of care for the patient after transtibial amputation. Executed therapeutic units are described. The effect of therapeutic care is evaluated on the basis of output complex kinesiology examination. Results: The applied therapeutic care positively contributed to the improved condition of the patient. Keywords: diabetes mellitus, diabetic foot syndrome, amputation, prosthesis, rehabilitation, case study

The lower limb limit motion range with prosthesis Procarve
Štrupl, Jaroslav ; Hruša, Jan (advisor) ; Matošková, Petra (referee)
Titel: The lower limb limit motion range with prosthesis Procarve Goals: Measure of skiers with above-knee amputees with prothesiss Procarve. We want to find differences in joints mobility between healthy and amputated lower limb. After that we want to consider the impact to differences on the techniques of downhill skiing. Method: Literature review, interviews , expert interviews , laboratory measurements Results: At this time, thanks for advances in progress on prosthetics are beginning to explore new possibilities for people with above-knee amputation in sports activities. In our work we just focus on these topic. Selected activities will be downhill skiing on two skis. On this issue , we focus on differences in joint mobility on healthy and amputated lower limb. Amputated limb will be equipped by the special ski Procarve prosthesis from Otto Bock company. The measured results will help us to identify appropriate techniques of downhill skiing. Key words: downhill skiing, above-knee amputation, prosthesis , downhill skiing technique

Transfemoral prosthesis, construction types of sockets
Rejthar, Karel ; Mikšíčková, Petra (advisor) ; Černý, Pavel (referee)
Title: Transfemoral prosthesis, construction types of sockets Objectives: The aim of this work is to create a comprehensive view of the thigh amputation issue and a subsequent rehabilitation and prosthetic care. The main objective is to compare the different types of sockets. In conclusion, I would like to describe the manufacturing process of scanning measurement data for the socket production. Methods: The basis for the writing of the thesis is a literature review. I also used the knowledge gained in seminars organized by professional firms. For a complete information obtained I used a method of an informal interviews with experts. Results: I believe that the anatomical socket allows better comfort for the patient. Keywords: transfemoral amputation, prosthesis, transfemoral socket, prosthetic components

Case Study of Physiotherapy Treatment of a Patient with the Diagnosis of Gangrene of Lower Limbs
Juráková, Eva ; Lorencová, Kateřina (advisor) ; Hlavičková, Růžena (referee)
Title: Case Study of Physiotherapy Treatment of a Patient with the Diagnosis of Gangrene of Lower Limbs. Aim: Summary of theoretical knowledge and processing of case study of a patient with the diagnosis of gangrene of lower limbs. Method: The thesis consists of two parts - theoretic and specific. The theoretic part of the thesis contains topics related to amputations, prothesis, diagnostic methods and physioterapeutical treatments used when dealing with this diagnosis. The specific part of the thesis contains a case study of a physiotherapeutical treatment of a patient after unilateral above-knee amputation with the diagnosis of gangrene of lower limbs including complex kinesiologic examination, plan of rehabilitation, description of the progress of therapy and evaluation of the effects of therapy. The case study was compiled during an internship at the inpatiet rehabilitation ward of the Central Military Hospital in Prague. Key words: amputation, prothesis, phantom pain, case-study, physiotherapy

Transfemoral prostheses and their importance for geriatric patients
Ďurický, Michal ; Bachura, Marek (advisor) ; Šolc, Zdeněk (referee)
Title: Transfemoral prothesis and their importance with geriatric patients Objective: The objective of my work is to gain an overview about transfemoral prothesis and summarize the information about their importance with geriatric patients due to their polymorbid status. Methods: The first part, theoretical, is of finding character, and the second part, practical, gathers information from geriatric patients. Publications, articles and counceling with specialists in prosthetics were used when creating this work. Results: Using transfemoral prothesis with geriatric patients is strongly influenced by their health status and proper rehabilitation. Keywords: geriatric patient, amputation, stump, prothesis, knee joint, sole of foot

Options of using physiotherapy at patients with amputation of their lower limb
ROŽNOVJÁKOVÁ, Tereza
This bachelor deals with the possibilities of the use of physiotherapy at patients with amputation of the leg. The loss of the lower limb has a major influence on change in postural stability. Despite the prosthetic equipment patient has impaired proprioception, which is reflected to the pathological walk with compensatory mechanism. We are trying to return a person to normal life with minimal disabilities using specific physiotherapy methods with adequate training and stability. In the theoretical part there is a summary description of amputation and its influence on postural stability, further I deal with protetics options, where I am closely describing the use of functional and posturograf tests. In the end I deal with physiotherapeutics prosthetic equipment and methods applied in practice. The aim of the practical part is to assess the changes in postural stability with the use of the instruments with a biological feedback and to map out the qualitative and quantitative parameters of walking of patients with lower limb amputations. For the practical part have been selected qualitative research, which includes case reports of two patients with transfemoral amputations and one transtibial of the lower limb. Both input and output examination includes a complete analysis of kinesiologic, functional tests with posturography examination of postural stability. Each patient attended 10 individual therapies to increase the stability. The results were compared between input and output of tests. All patient's postural stability has been positively affected with a slight improvement in posture. Despite the regular therapy we didn't suceed to change the pathological components. This state can be caused by the prothesis, which was by all patients described as unsatisfing. Bachelor thesis may be used by students of physiotherapy for extension of their knowledge, or they can apply the knowledge during their practice. It can also be used as educational material for patients who are interested in the issue.
