Seidlová, Lucie ; Křivánková, Markéta (advisor) ; Mahrová, Andrea (referee)
Author: Lucie Seidlová Title of the bachelor's thesis: Comparison of methods using balance boards and neurocentric approach in restoring stability after ankle distortion in aerobic gymnastics Supervisor: Mgr. Markéta Křivánková Year of the presentation: 2023 Objectives: To compare the results of available studies using balance boards and neurocentric approach in restoring stability and to explain their principles. Methods: Search of Czech and foreign literature using the FTVS library, PubMed, Google Scholar and ScienceDirect. The practical part uses a method of comparison. Results: The effectiveness of balance boards in restoring stability after ankle distortion has been demonstrated in several studies. On the other hand, its influence is questioned by two of the selected studies which did not show any positive results from using balance boards on stability. Some of the results have been evaluated by questionnaires or stability measurements on an unstable surface, so it is not possible to determine exactly whether the use of balance aids improves stability on a stable surface and is therefore appropriate when returning to sport. The research looking at the neurocentric approach has predominantly been conducted on probands with CNS disorder or injury, so it is not proven exactly what results would...

BACHELOR THESIS ABSTRACT Author: Anna Šályová Supervisor: Ing. Bc. Marie Plecháčová Consultant: Ing. Kristýna Plevová Title: Physiotherapy intervention in patients with neck pain Subtitle: Sensorimotor stimulation and cervical spine stabilization exercises Abstract: This bachelor thesis deals with physiotherapy in patients with cervical pain. This problem is quite common nowadays, it ranks as the fourth most common health problem overall. The theoretical part of the thesis describes the anatomy and kinesiology of the cervical spine, the description and classification of pain in this area and the treatment procedure with a focus on physiotherapy. Furthermore, the concepts of stability and posture are explained. An important part of the thesis is the description of the chosen methods and their use in various studies. In the empirical part, it was necessary to describe the methodological procedures, especially the chosen tests, on the basis of which I evaluated the results of the therapies: the NRS, the NDI, the muscle strength of neck flexion, the Postural Stability Assessment, tests for postural stability (trunk flexion test, diaphragmatic test). Selected exercises used in the therapies were also described. I worked with a total of four patients who were randomly divided into two groups, with each group...
Sensory integration approach in paediatrics
Kordíková, Eliška ; Hyttichová, Zdenka (advisor) ; Zounková, Irena (referee)
The thesis describes the approach of sensory integration of Jean Ayres, summarizes a basic neuroanatomy knowledge related to this approach and deals with sensory processing disorder, their diagnosis and therapy. There is a case study in the thesis containing an examination, assessment and the suggestion of therapy according to the approach of sensory integration theory. The sensory processing disorders are functional disorders of perception, filtering and organizing of stimulus coming from sensory systems. On this basis the sensory modulation processing and sensory discrimination disorder in different sensory system occur or sensory - based motor disorder can occur too. Sensory processing disorders may occur simultaneously with another diagnosis, for example the Down syndrom, syndrom ADHD. We create diagnosis from history, clinical observation and tests and from standardized tests. The therapy uses a number of different tools and special equipped rooms to provide adequate sensory stimulation, especially for vestibular, touch and proprioception. The approach of sensory integration is a part of integrated look at an individual and his problems and it is a part of the whole rehabilitation too.

Bibliografic identification BESTOVÁ, Zuzana. The effect of The Feldenkrais method on body schema. Prague: Charles University in Prague, 2nd Faculty of Medicine, Department of rehabilitation and exercise medicine, 2012. 96 pages. Supervisor Mgr. Magdaléna Lepšíková. Abstract The diploma thesis deals with neurophysiological concept of body schema and evaluation of the effect of the Feldenkrais method (FM) on its quality. The research comprises two groups of probands without motor system disorders. The participants passed an investigation of the body schema quality by the following tests: a test of estimation of body dimensions (width of mouth, width of shoulders, width of hips and length of foot), a modification of Petrie's test, a test of proprioception and a test of graphestesia. The examination was accomplished before FM investigation and after the course. The first group (group A) comprised 13 individuals (5 males, 8 females) who participated in a semestral course of FM, the second group of probands (group B) included 17 individuals (3 males, 14 females) underwent a two days long FM program. A significant improvement (p = 0,0027) in the estimation of the length of foot was detected after FM intervention in group B. There was not a significant improvement in any of estimated body dimensions in group A....

Assessing the influence of constitutional hypermobility on postural stability
Zadražilová, Tereza ; Smékal, David (advisor) ; Čakrt, Ondřej (referee)
The thesis "Judging the influence of constitutional hypermobility on postural stability" focuses on the problem of constitutional hypermobility (CH) and the influence of joint instability on stability mechanisms. The aim of the research was to find out whether there is a difference in stability mechanisms with tested subjects with CH and without it. Furthermore, the research focuses on the influence of mobility techniques on postural stability by the means of chosen tests carried out on Balance Master® System platform. The tested sample includes 14 women aged from 20 to 28, 7 women with constitutional hypermobility and 7 women as a control group. 6 tests were chosen for the measurement on Balance Master® platform. 2 static tests: modified Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction on Balance (mCTSIB), Unilateral Stance (US), and 4 dynamic tests: Limits of Stability (LOS), Rhytmic weight shift (RWS), Step Up Over (SUO) a Forward Lunge (FL). We compared the medians of output values of individual tests. It was assumed that subjects with KH would have significantly worse test results than the control group. Furthermore, it was supposed that the mobilization processes cause stability disturbance on the basis of cancellation of compensational , thus protective block in comparison with KS.

Baqhoum, Salem ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Vomáčková, Helena (referee)
Effect of Ankle and Foot joints mobilization on Stability improvement, analyzed by Computerized Dynamic Posturography. The aim of the study was to observe if joint mobilization of ankle and foot joints would improve the stability using the by Computerized Dynamic Posturography (neurocom) as a measurement tool. The methods that are used from the research are based on the knowledge which was obtained during the study of physiotherapy program at FTVS UK. All the participants are between the ages of 20 to 30 years, with no specific diagnose. All the 40 participants were being randomly divide into 2 groups. The control group and the experimental group, each group will have their Stability tested twice on the CPD (NeuroCom). The control group will be measured first, and after 20 minutes they will be measured again without any examination or therapeutic intervention. The experimental group was measured twice, first before the examination of joint play and the therapy, then the examination of joint play was done and any restricted joints were noted and treated, later, the participants were measured again for possible improvement. Joint play examination and therapy take about 20 minutes. Stability analyses take about 20 minutes too. The project doesn't include subjects with severe lower extremity injuries (eg,...

Author: Bc. Simona Bartošová Title: Effect of sensomotoric insoles on postural stability in children with cerebral palsy Objectives: Objectively assess the effect of sensomotoric insoles on children with cerebral palsy (CP) via COP (Centre of Pressure) parameters recorded on Kistler force plate. Methods: This thesis is designed as an experimental study. Selected paramaters of static postural balance were recorded via force plate to assess the effect of sensomotoric insoles. Five subjects (average age 7.2 years) with diagnosis of cerebral palsy were enrolled into the study. Data collection was carried out in two separated sessions - first before therapy and second after using the insoles for one month. The validity of the data was supported by three repetitions for each modification - upright plain stand with open eyes, upright stand with feet together and upright plain stand with closed eyes. Monitored parameters were: total trajectory of COP, amplitude of mediolateral displacement of COP, amplitude of anteroposterior displacement of COP and mean velocity of movement of COP. The data were analyzed in MATLAB® version R2019b. The statistical analysis was performed including the outliers elimination. The normality of data was checked by Lilliefors' test. In the case of normality a two-sample Student's...
