Clinical effects of treating extraocular muscles
Vacková, Petra ; Bitnar, Petr (advisor) ; Čech, Zdeněk (referee)
Extraocular muscles have the structure of striated muscle with a very fine innervation. In addition to the obvious function of moving eyeballs to ensure binocular vision, they have an irreplaceable role in the field of proprioception, in maintaining balance and posture. In physiotherapy, we use the eye movement to facilitate/for inhibition of various muscle groups or even whole muscle chains. Extraocular muscles themselves and their condition generally eludes our interest, although even there we find the first signs: the study of the relationship of trigger points and cephalea. The theoretical part of this thesis provides comprehensive information on the anatomy and function of the eye muscles. It also deals with selected pathologies that primarily relate to other structures of the human body, but whose manifestations can also be observed on the function and activity of extraocular muscles. A separate chapter is the relationship of extraocular muscles, field of vision and stability. The practical part of the theses is designed as a pivot study. Its aim is to determine whether we are able to affect the condition of extraocular muscles by manual physiotherapeutic interventions and how is our proposed therapy perceived by probands themselves. For objectivization of any changes, the peripheral vision...

The influence of therapy with flossing tape to range of motion and fascia chains in lower extermities.
Pisarčík, Ján ; Malá, Jitka (advisor) ; Pavlů, Dagmar (referee)
Diploma thesis title: Influence of tissue flossing therapy on the range of motion and fascial chains in the lower limbs. Objectives: The main objective is to present theoretical facts about tissue flossing therapy, to document the effect of this method on the active range of motion in the lower limbs and to investigate whether this increase in movement can be achieved by influencing fascial chains in distant parts of the musculoskeletal system. Methods: The research was completed by 30 recreational or high-level athletes aged 19 to 26 years. Initial testing and subsequent treatment of the ankle joint and surrounding fascial structures were done using the tissue flossing technique. The initial tests consisted of a weight- bearing lunge test to test the dorsal flexion of the ankle joint and a Thomayer test to test the range of motion within the fascial superficial back line. Treatment of both ankle joints and surrounding fascial structures on both lower limbs was followed by final testing. The resulting data were processed using mathematical software R. A paired t-test, a two-sample t-test for independent selections assuming different variables and a test of the agreement of the fraction with a known constant were used to calculate the p-values. Statistical significance was determined at the critical...

Clinical evaluation of ROM of shoulder joint in cadet and junior category players of so-called overhead sports
Benda, Petr ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Žáková, Lenka (referee)
The title of the master thesis: Clinical evaluation of ROM of shoulder joint in cadet and junior category players of so-called overhead sports Abstract in English language: The goal of this thesis is to elucidate whether the "overhead" athletes like handballers and volleyballers suffer from extension changes and local hypermobility in their shoulder joints. These changes are going to be described by trigonometric measurements and hypermobility tests by Sachse. It is going to be determined which "overhead" athletes are affected the most. Their sex is going to be taken into consideration. The theoretical part of the thesis describes selected "overhead" sports and their strain on a human body from a kinesiologic point of view. Especially the impact of offensive blows in volleyball and throws in handball on shoulder joints are going to be examined. The thesis is going to examine a shoulder girdle from an anatomy, kinesiology, biomechanics, and physiology point of view. A chapter focused on hypermobility and it is classification is included too. 95 people without a prior injury of a shoulder joint in the age from 16 to 19 years old including 73 "overhead" athletes were tested. There were 30 men, 40 women, 34 handballers, and 39 volleyballers. In the control group, there were 22 people, of which 11 men and 11...

Analysis of muscle shortening and range of upper body movement and their relation to selected golf swing parameters in junior age players
Kosina, Jan ; Gryc, Tomáš (advisor) ; Hráský, Pavel (referee)
Title: Muscle tightness and range of motion analysis of selected upper body segments an its connection to selected parametres of experienced junior golf players swing. Objectives: The aim of this work is to assess muscle tightness, range of motion and golf swing kinematics of experienced junior golf players and to evaluate possible connections between muscle tightness, range of movement and golf swing kinematics Methods: Golf swing kinematics was observed by kinematic analyzer CODA Motion System. Selected parametres of golf swing were: shoulder rotation; pelvis rotation; X - factor; angle between shoulders and left arm. Parametres were measured in key moments of a goflf swing: end of backswing; impakt. Muscle tightness was measured by clinical test of muscle tightness according to Janda for selected muscles: m. triceps surae; m. iliopsoas; m. rectus femoris; m. tensor fascies latae; knee flexors; hip adductors; m. piriformis; m. quadratus lumborum; paravertebral muscles; m. pectoralis major; m. trapezius - upper part; m. levator scapulae and m. sternocleidomastoideus. Clinical test of range of motion according to Janda and standart two - arm goniometer was used for range of motion evaluation of selected body segments: hip joint - internal and external rotatio, flexion, extension; shoulder joint -...

Case Study of Physiotherapy Treatment of a Patient after total knee replacement surgery
Petrocheilos, Stavros ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Vomáčková, Helena (referee)
Title: Case study of physiotherapy treatment of a patient after total knee replacement surgery. Thesis aim: Thesis is divided into two parts, the first part is theoretical and has aim to show an overview of anatomy, kinesiology and biomechanics of the knee joint and to show general information about the osteoarthritis and the patient's surgery. The second part is the case study where aim is to show the examinations and treatments that were provided to the patient and analyse the results. Clinical findings: The patient was a 71 years old male with diagnosis of total knee replacement surgery, performed 7 days ago from the time we met. The patient had limited ROM in the operated leg into flexion and extension and the area around the knee was swollen and warm. Also, he had some weakness on the muscles of the operated leg. Procedures: All the procedures that used were based on my knowledge acquired from Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport. These were post isometric relaxation, joint mobilisation, strength and length tests and strengthening exercises based on my knowledge. Result: After 7 days of therapies the patient's operated leg had physiological mobility into flexion and extension, the muscles gained strength and oedema was reduced but not completely. Conclusion:...
