Creation of instructional DVD rescue and first aid in the aquatic environment for students of high pedagogical schools
MIČAN, Richard
The bachelor thesis called ?Creation of instructional DVD of rescue and first aid in water environment for university students? deals with crisis situations, which can easily occur in water environment. These crises threaten the life-threatened often and, without first aid, endanger the consequences. People get close to the aquatic environment at work, during transport, recreation, or regeneration throughout the year. The main goal is to create an educational DVD about the rescue from the aquatic environment through literature and practical experience. The theoretical part of the thesis describes the basic skills, which are then transferred to the audiovisual form in the practical part. The benefit and efficiency of the instructional DVD has been tested on respondents. The instructional video is intended for university students. However, it can also be used by teachers, wider and professional public.
Effect of water temperature on the electrical activity of muscle
Novotná, Petra ; Pánek, David (advisor) ; Jalovcová, Miroslava (referee)
Title: Effect of water temperature on the electrical activity of muscle Objective: Main objective of this work is to determine the spatiotemporal changes in muscle activation depending on different properties of the environment. All this at a defined muscle power output. Measured by hand dynamometer. Methods: This is a case study. Is processed and analyzed the relationship of the forearm muscles against the aquatic environment (different temperatures - 15 řC, 24 řC and 35 řC) and against dry. Muscular power output is defined and measured by hand dynamometer. Muscular power output was determined as isometric contraction flexors of wrist and fingers of dominant hand. It all in three different modes. The research group were included 5 healthy individuals (3 women, 2 men). As objectivization method was determined surface electromyography. Findings: There is no influence of water temperature (15 řC, 24 řC and 35 řC) on spatiotemporal activation of muscle. It all at a defined muscle power output. There is also no changes on spatiotemporal activation of muscle in aquatic and dry. Keywords: muscle contraction, temperature, water environment, surface electromyography, Water Surface EMG
Use surface electromyography in the clinical practice
Dobisová, Anna ; Crhonková, Radka (advisor) ; Demeková, Júlia (referee)
Surface electromyography is a non-invasive method of examination. Surface electrodes localized on the skin above the muscle record action potentials of particular muscles' motor units. Acquired EMG recordings enable to assess muscle activity, muscle fatigue or recruitment of particular muscles during the motion (timing) and muscle coordination. Modern EMG devices are compatible with a scale of sensors that record other biosignals and are able to synchronize them with EMG records. That's why SEMG is applied in neurology, physiotherapy, ergonomics, biomechanics, orthopaedics, prosthetics, sport and in other spheres. As a non-invasive method it has its advantages, but of course its limits as well. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
Evaluation of EMG Activity of the Shoulder Girdle Muscles during Exercises with Thera-Band in Aquatic Environment and on Land
Holländerová, Dita ; Pavlů, Dagmar (advisor) ; Pánek, David (referee)
Title: Evaluation of EMG Activity of the Shoulder Girdle Muscles during Exercises with Thera-Band in Aquatic Environment and on Land. Objective: The main goal of this thesis is to determine a degree of muscle activity of upper trapezius muscle and other selected muscles in the aquatic environment and on land and to compare the values. Furthermore, to determine whether the upper trapezius muscle activates in the aquatic environment later than on land, compared to other selected muscles. Methods: This is the case of study, where the degree of muscle activity and the onset of activation of the upper trapezius muscle and other selected muscle is analyzed and then evaluated during shoulder abduction in two different environments using elastic resistance strength (yellow Thera-Band). As an objectification method surface electromyography had been chosen. To ensure the same set of initial conditions the abduction was performed in sitting position. The same chair was used in water and on land. Four female participants part in the experiment. Findings: The degree of muscle activity of upper trapezius muscle in the aquatic environment significantly decreased. It wasn't confirmed, that the upper trapezius muscle has been activated later in water than on land. Timing of selected muscles in aquatic environment...
The issue of perception of the aquatic environment in preschool children.
Řenčová, Iveta ; Svobodová, Irena (advisor) ; Kuhnová, Věra (referee)
This thesis focuses on the perception of the aquatic environment in preschool children. Highlights the differences between children of preschool age complete beginners who start with swimming and children, who are engaged in swimming since infancy, but they are going to swim alone without parents. With swimming, selected test detects differences between the age groups of children. Key words Aquatic environment, Swimming, Swimming lesson, Preschool age
EMG analysis of the influence of the water environment on walking in the elderly
Vodičková, Kamila ; Pánek, David (advisor) ; Neuwirthová, Svatava (referee)
Title: EMG analysis of the influence of the water environment on walking in the elderly Objectives: The main objective of this master thesis is to determine the degree of activation of selected muscles during walking on land and in water environment by using surface electromyography. The next component objective is to determine and compare dynamic co-contraction level of low extremity muscles during walking on land and in water. Methods: It is a pilot study which was attended by 5 participants. The average age of the research group was 67,2 years and was represented 3 men and 2 women. Activity of m. tibialis anterior, m. gastrocnemius, m. rectus femoris, m. biceps femoris and mm. erectores spinae in the level of ThL transition was recorded during walking on land and in water environment. EMG signal has been adjusted, analyzed and after that normalized EMG signal to MVC was compared in both environments. The records were compared both intraindividually and interindividually. At the end dynamic co-contraction level of selected muscles was evaluated and compared during gait in both environments. Results: Electromyographic analysis revealed that during walking in aquatic environment were analyzed muscles involved with less extent than during walking on land. Co-contraction level was lower in low...
An electromyographical analysis of the influence of water environment on the rehabilitation of patients with Parkinson's disease
Kotalíková, Kateřina ; Pánek, David (advisor) ; Pavlů, Dagmar (referee)
Title: An electromyographical analysis of the influence of water environment on the rehabilitation of patients with Parkinson's disease Aims: The main aim of this Master's thesis was to compare electrical activity of selected muscles of patients with Parkinson's disease via electromyography during gate aground and in water environment. Furhter aim was to determine co-contraction level of leg muscles of patients with Parkinson's disease during gait aground and in water environment. Methods: This thesis is a case study, which was conducted on five probands, two of which were men and three women of age 67,4±7,1. With the use of surface electromyography, an activity was evaluated of m.tibialis anterior, m.gastrocnemius, m. rectus femoris, m. biceps femoris and mm. erectores spinae in place of Th -L junction. Acquired EMG signal was analized and then a standarized level of muscle activity during gait in different environments was evaluated, aground and in water, and afterward a dynamic co-contraction level was evaluated. Results: The results show consistent standardized activity of monitored muscles in water environment, which describes a chronic influence of pathological central program accompanying Parkinson's disease, where a change in coordination pattern is not observed, typical for movement in...
