Dobešová, Petra ; Malá, Jitka (advisor) ; Pavlů, Dagmar (referee)
Title: The Affinity of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and Chronic Finger Pain in Climbers Objectives: To determine possible affinity between thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) and chronic finger pain in climbers by comparing the occurrence of TOS among climbers with chronic finger pain, climbers without chronic finger pain, and non-climbers. Methods: Sixty-six participants of both genders aged 18-40 were included in the study. Based on the initial questionnaire, they were divided into three groups: climbers with chronic finger pain, climbers without chronic finger pain, and non-climbers. The homogeneity of the groups based on quantitative characteristics was assessed using an ANOVA test. All study participants were examined using the same examination protocol for the presence of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS). The examination protocol consisted of three questions about clinical symptoms, five examination tests, and palpation of the scalene and pectoralis minor muscles. A positive finding of TOS was defined as a positive result of 60 % or more of the examination protocol tests. The frequency of positive TOS findings was subsequently compared between the group of climbers with chronic finger pain, climbers without chronic finger pain, and non- climbers. Furthermore, the frequency of positive results was...

Author: Eliška Rychnová Supervisor: Ing. Kristýna Plevová Consultant: Ing. Marie Plecháčová Title of the thesis: The impact of high intensity laser on the healing of soft tissues of the knee joint in patients after arthroscopy The bachelor's thesis deals with the issue of soft tissue healing of the knee joint after arthroscopy. The main goal of this work was to monitor the effect of high intensity laser on the healing of soft tissues of the knee joint after arthroscopy. The work consists of theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part focuses on the description of the anatomy and biomechanics of the knee joint. Further summarizes information about the scar, its formation, types, care options and rating scales. The technical parameters and effects of the laser with a focus on the high intensity laser are also described here. Then, based on the data collection and analysis, the current state of this matter in the Czech Republic and abroad was described and summarized. The research includes 16 studies, which were selected on the basis of selected keywords, data actuality, validity and at the same time their pros and cons were considered. In the practical part 4 case reports of patients after arthroscopy of the knee joint were processed. Only patients after meniscus surgery were included in the...
