Title: Use of dancing mat in physiotherapy of patients with multiple sclerosis Abstract: The bachelor thesis deals with the use of dancing mat in physiotherapy of patients with multiple sclerosis. The aim of the thesis is to evaluate overall the use and effectiveness of therapy with a dance mat in physiotherapy and possible effect on gait performance, balance and movement coordination. The thesis includes theoretical part and practical part. The theoretical part of the thesis describes the multiple sclerosis in general and how can be symptoms influenced by physiotherapy. The practical part summarise effect of music and dance intervention on people with multiple sclerosis and introduce dancing mat as potencional rehabilitation tool. Practical part includes four case reports of physiotherapy program with dance pad. Effects of this type of therapeutic intervention is evaluated by functional walking tests (T25FW), balance assessment (Berg Balance Scale, the Mini-BESTest), gait performance assassment (the GAITRite instrument). Results are presented in tables and graphes. In discussion part my results are compared with results of similar studies. Key words: exercise, physiotherapy, multiple sclerosis, dance, dancing mat

Braumová, Lucie ; Bartůňková, Staša (advisor) ; Majorová, Simona (referee)
Title: The effects of extreme physical and mental stress on the human body Goals: The main goal of this work was to evaluate the effect of physical stress load in a five-kilometer-long race in cross-country skiing on physical and mental functions of high school students. Methods: The investigated group consisted of 10 boys of the average age of 16 years. To evaluate their level of physical fitness and circulatory responses during cross-country stress, the maximal treadmill stress test was used. Circulatory response before, during, and after the race was monitored by a Sport-tester. To evaluate the mental background and the actual condition under the stress load, standardized questionnaires on ability to cross-country skiing, stress management strategy, degree of physical discomfort and current mental state were used. Results: The reference file tested by a stress test up to the maximum proved an above-average aerobic fitness. The extreme stress situation was a five-kilometer-long race in cross-country skiing. The results were processed and evaluated with a statistical and factual relevance. A number of correlations were made. The average SF values, which were achieved during the race, were getting near the maximum values (96% of SF max.). Even the evaluation by a Borg RPE scale attested to the...
