Examination of structures and functions of the shoulder joint in swimmers.
Lenčéšová, Eliška ; Kučerová, Klára (advisor) ; Rampová, Michaela (referee)
Swimming is considered one of the most suitable physical activities. Almost all muscle groups are involved in this sport. The aquatic environment in which this sport is performed eliminates the static load that is present in other sports. This is one of the many reasons why this sport is considered an ideal physical activity for people of all age groups. Shoulder injuries and pain are the most common problems swimmers experience. This occurs because of the nature of the movement that is performed during swimming. It involves repetitive movement of the upper limbs, the great effort required to overcome the resistance of the water and the attempt to generate as much speed as possible. These, and many more, are the reasons why the highest number of injuries occur at this location. Most of the force that is generated to move forward is provided by the upper limbs. The purpose of this bachelor thesis is to compare shoulder examination using clinical tests, which are available to all examiners, with ultrasound examination. Six subjects were examined, 3 males and 3 females. All probands are currently involved in competitive swimming or have been involved in the past and are currently practicing the sport at least 4 times a week. The probands involved in this work reported one shoulder with present pain...
MUSCLES ACTIVATIONS DURING "SHOULDER MOUNT" POLE ACROBATIC EXERCISE
Sanni, Modinat ; Vilímek, Miloslav (advisor) ; Šifta, Petr (referee)
Author: Bc. Modinat Sanni Supervisor: Ing. Miroslav Vilímek, PhD Title: MUSCLES ACTIVATION DURING "SHOULDER MOUNT"POLE ACROBATIC EXERCISE Purpose: This study is an empirical - theoretical study presents the literature review regarding to the topic of the shoulder function anatomy, kinesiology, biomechanics, non-traumatic injuries of the shoulder and their prevention by using the available literatures. Further, the study also compares by surface electromyography the amplitudes, shapes and durations of myoelectric signals of m. latissimus dorsi, m. pectoralis maior, m. biceps brachii, m. infraspinatus and m. supraspinatus of dominant shoulder in two healthy individuals during acrobatic exercise on vertical pole known as "Shoulder Mount". The purpose was monitor the changes in two different conditions; i.e. kinesiotape and elbow brace and compare with the control condition for the reason of finding out their ability to affect the myoelectric activities of selected muscles. Further, the Shoulder Mount exercise had recorded by six Qualisys cameras for motion analyses. Methods and materials: The potentially eligible scientific articles perform a search of studies on the topic of kinesiotapes and tennis elbow brace as measured by EMG mainly on myoelectric activity of the shoulder complex were seared from...
Effect of targeted training of the lower scapular fixators on the shoulder girdle function of rugby players.
Přibyl, Michal ; Satrapová, Lenka (advisor) ; Reckziegelová, Petra (referee)
Thesis title: Effect of targeted training of the lower scapular fixators on the shoulder girdle function of rugby players The concept of the problem: Rugby is one of the toughest ball sports and there is no shortage of injuries. In addition, injuries in the shoulder area are among the most common and any possibility of reducing these injuries is beneficial. There is not much time left for compensation and targeted intervention; moreover, it is not usually led by physiotherapists but by fitness coaches and only in larger clubs. The consequence is a muscle imbalance in the shoulder girdle, which can result in the so-called scapular dyskinesis. This is turn affects the function and stability of the shoulder joint not only by the overhead athletes. It is possible to influence scapular dyskinesis in various ways. One of them is the inclusion of targeted training of lower scapular fixators into fitness training and thus their stability is improved. Objectives: The main aim of this thesis is to verify whether rugby players with painful shoulder have sufficiently scapular fixation based on kinesiological and biomechanical knowledge. Another aim of this thesis is to create such an exercise unit that would ensure the correct activity of the lower scapular fixators and verify this by measurement. The final...

This case study of the physiotherapy care of a patient with multiple injuries of nerves in the shoulder and arm
Polák, Alois ; Satrapová, Lenka (advisor) ; Šánová, Milena (referee)
Title: This case study of the physiotherapy care of a patient with multiple injuries of nerves in the shoulder and arm Objectives: The main objective of this paper is to summarize the theoretical knowledge about the peripheral nerve lesions in the shoulder and arm, and the development of the case studies of care for patients with this diagnosis. Methods: This work is divided into two main parts. The first part is devoted to a general summary of theoretical knowledge concerning anatomical, kinesiological, physiological and pathophysiological aspects of this disease and there are outlined some options for its examination and its treatment. In the second practical part is a detailed case report of physiotherapy care of patients with a given diagnosis. This section has been prepared on the basis of practice in the hospital Nemocnice Na Bulovce in the period from 19 January to 13 February 2015. There are a detailed input and output kinesiology analysis, itemized individual therapeutic units and drafted the effect of therapy. Results: The patient improved active movement of the shoulder joint in all directions increased the strength of the relevant muscles and especially improved coordination skills and volitional motor activity of his upper limb. Keywords: peripheral palsy, brachial plexus, shoulder...
