ANDRLOVÁ, Nikola
This bachelor thesis deals with the possibilities of physiotherapy in digital diseases. Digital illnesses are relatively a new concepts and they are becoming more common in people working on computers or other electronic devices. The aim of the work was to describe the digital diseases and to propose a therapeutic treatment for people with one of these diseases. In the theoretical part, the anatomy and kinesiology of individual parts of the upper limb and cervical spine are described. Next, the plexus brachialis, individual digital diseases, ergonomics of the workplace and the procedures used in the therapy are described. The practical part describes the methods of data collection that were used and the case studies of probands. The research group consisted of three respondents who work on computers and have been diagnosed one of the digital diseases. An individual therapeutic unit was proposed to each probands according to the initial kinesiological analysis, which was conducted once a week for approximately two months. At the last therapy, an exit kinesiological examination was conducted to analyse the outcome. The collected results showed that the proposed therapy and periodic practice of selected exercises bring positive effects. Probands indicated pain relief and relief when working on the computer. Next, range of motion and muscle strength in all parts of the upper limb were improved. This bachelor thesis could be useful for physiotherapists who meet with these patients in the future and it could help them in their work or for the lay public to learn more about similar problems that troubling them.

Oktábcová, Alice ; Uhlířová, Jaromíra (advisor) ; Kotková, Karla (referee)
Name: Alice Oktábcová Supervisor: Mgr. et Mgr. Jaromíra Uhlířová Oponent: ……………. Diploma thesis: The Application of Robot-Assisted Therapy of Hand after Stroke: Follow-Up Trial of Application of AMADEO Instrument Key words: stroke, robot-assisted therapy, Amadeo Instrument, follow-up study, upper extremity In recent years, western countries noted a gradual increase in stroke survivors. Stroke can cause motor activity impairment and also senzoric and cognitive disorders which lead into restriction of participation of activities of daily living and also reduction of social and community activities. Functional improvment of upper and lower extremity after stroke is a very complex proces which has to be solved in multidiscplinary and multifactorial approach in result of every stroke survivor to live in the most independent way as possible. Robot-assisted therapy for motor recovery could be a successful way to improve motor activity of stroke survivors. Amadeo Instrument is one of robot-assisted therapy for hand rehabilitation of stroke survivors. This instrument can be described as final effector without exoskeleton which allows functional motor therapy for fingers and also a motivational feedback. Amadeo therapy can be passive, assisted, active and also interactive. The aim of this thesis is to...

Burajová, Patricie ; Rejtarová, Anna (advisor) ; Rotbartová, Eliška (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the topic of selected bimanual training with people after brain damage with hemiparesis. The bachelor thesis is both theoretical and practical. In the theoretical part are presented the most common causes of brain damage that lead to hemiparesis. Then selected unimanual approaches are described, which focus mainly on the paretic upper limb in therapy. They are followed by bimanual approaches, which emphasize the coordination and involvement of both upper limbs. The unimanual ones are Constraint-induced movement therapy, Robotic Assisted Therapy, Functional Electrostimulation, and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation. Bimanual approaches include the HABIT method, COMbined modified constraint induced movement therapy and bimanual intensive training, Mirror therapy, Bilateral isokinematic training, and Task-Oriented bilateral training. The practical part contains a created set of model bimanual activities, which include a total of 13 activities, from personal and instrumental everyday activities. The set was used with 6 patients after suffering a stroke for 3 weeks of therapy. During these three weeks, the patients performed selected model activities from the created set. Each patient underwent an initial and then final examination and evaluation with selected...

THESIS ABSTRACT Name, surname: Bc. Pavlína Kořánová Supervisor: MUDr. Ivan Humhej, PhD. Labor consultant: Bc. Olga Nováková, M. Sc. Thesis title: Occupational therapy treatment strategies in patients with upper limb peripheral nerve injury Thesis abstract: Peripheral nerve injuries of upper limb are often identified by sensory and motor control deficit. Limitations are most likely evident in their performance of activities of daily living (ADL), leisure and work activities. Significant neurogenic pain is a typically included and can cause poor quality of life. The result of injury is not only affecting the physical area, but also psychological and socio- economic aspects. Treatment is often time-consuming and there is an uncertain prognosis. The overview of the issue summarizes basic information, identification of specific peripheral nerve of upper limb (radial, median, ulnar) and their functional deficits. It also presents actual options of treatment, specially with an emphasis on occupational therapy. The purpose of this final thesis is to extend the knowledge and treatment options of evidence-based occupational therapy. The outputs represent an overview of occupational therapy treatment strategies in patients with upper limb peripheral nerve injury. Among the common effective occupational therapy's...

Author: Veronika Hejtmánková Title: Injuries from the chronic overload in climbers and prevention options - literature review Objective: The aim of this thesis is to determine significant so-called biomechanic risk factors for upper extremity injuries from overload in climbers and prevention options to reduce these so-called biomechanic risk factors for upper extremity injuries from overload in climbers. Methods: This thesis is processed in form of literature review. 7 electronic databases (EBSCO, MEDLINE Complete, PEDro, PubMed, Scopus, SPORTDiscus with FullText, Web of Science) were searched using keywords. From primarily searched 1824 titles were chosen using inclusion and exclusion criteria 13 studies. Results: The most frequently addressed significant so-called biomechanic risk factor for upper extremity injury in climbers is the crimp grip. Other significant so-called biomechanic risk factors for upper extremity injury in climbers are isolated grip and dead point technique in two-handed dyno. Prevention options of these so-called biomechanic risk factors are slope grip, parallel grip, warm up with 100 cyclic climbing loads of upper extremities and in vertical jumps jump higher than is required by dead point technique. Keywords: Climbing, risk factor, overload injury, chronic injury, upper...

Title: Analysis of the motion of dominant upper extremity during offensive stroke in badminton performed by elite female players Objectives: Objective of my master thesis is to analyse movement of a dominant upper extremity during offensive stroke in badminton and to point out possible risk factors for injuries and soft tissue overload problems in the region of the upper limb. Methods: The theoretical part deals with anatomical and kinesiological description of upper extremities. Then there is a description of the motion on the court and upper strokes in badminton and movements of upper extremity during the strokes. The practical part deals with measuring of rotations in shlouder joints and with analysis of motion of upper extremity during offensive stroke in badminton. It is focused on measuring the range of motion, angular velocity and angular acceleration in joints of dominant upper extremity. The Xsens MVN was used to record motion. Results: The results showed that the internal rotation in the shoulder joint on the dominant upper limb during active movement examination is reduced in elite female badminton players. When an offensive strike is played, the players come to the extreme inner rotation in the shoulder joint. Next we found out that the risky movement during the offensive stroke is...

Pomyjová, Šárka ; Krivošíková, Mária (advisor) ; Rybářová, Kateřina (referee)
Title of diploma thesis: Grasps evaluation in patients after a stroke Objective: The main goal of the pilot study was to determine minimal clinically important difference in selected tests focusing on improvement in the grasps of patients in the chronic phase post stroke. The main hypothesis was set to prove that the differences between the initial and final assessments based on the Modified Frenchay Scale characterizes patients' improvement more accurately than the Score for visual evaluation of functional task of the hand. Methods: The research group consisted of 40 participants (26 men and 14 women) all in the post stroke chronic phase who were selected based on the criteria for inclusion in the research. Data was collected at the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine and the First Faculty of Medicine. Using video documentation of the Modified Frenchay Scale used during both the initial and final assessment, the test itself was then analysed. A 3rd subtest was also used to evaluate the Score for visual evaluation of functional task of the hand. Using the Spearman correlation coefficient, the statistically significant level was established (p <0,05) followed by calculating the critical value of the Spearman correlation coefficient (rsp (0,05,40) = 0,264), and thus verifying the hypothesis. Results: The...
