Němečková, Eliška ; Malá, Jitka (advisor) ; Kučerová, Ilona (referee)
Title: Effectivness of physiotherapeutic intervention on primary dysmenorrhea therapy Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a twelve-week physiotherapy intervention including manual therapy according to dysmenorrhea. Methods: This experimental study evaluates the benefits of physiotherapeutic intervention in women with primary dysmenorrhea. Female probands suffering from primary dysmenorrhea were selected and randomly divided into two groups. Two standardized qualitative questionnaires, Menstrual Distress Questionnaire and Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire were used to assess dysmenorrhea and the effect of therapy at the beginning of the experiment and at the end of the experiment after three months. During these months, three physiotherapy interventions were performed, which included examination and treatment by joint mobilisation series and examination and treatment of the pelvic floor muscles The control group did not undergo any treatment of primary dysmenorrhea for three months. Results: Differences in the income and outcome values of the Menstrual Distress Questionnaire and pain descriptors from the Short-Form McGill Questionnaire in probands who underwent the intervention were statistically significant (p <0.05). The differences in the mean values of the...

Bibliographical report NOVOTNÁ, Dominika. Physiotherapy in dysmenorrhea. Prague: Charles University, 2nd Faculty of Medicine, Department of Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine, 2022. 110 pages, 7 attachments. Thesis supervisor Mgr. Michaela Havlíčková. Abstract The theme of this bachelor's thesis is dysmenorrhea, one of a common problems in women. Physiology of the menstrual cycle and the effect of sex hormones on the female body, description and pathogenesis of primary and secondary dysmenorrhea, pain and its connection to the cycle are all included in the theoretical part as well as functional disorders of the musculoskeletal system typically found in patients suffering from dysmenorrhea. Theoretical part then stresses the importance of differential diagnosis between primary and secondary dysmenorrhea and is concluded by a summary of individual methods and concepts used in the therapy of both primary and, if possible, secondary dysmenorrhea. Knowledge from the theoretical part is then used in the practical part: case report of a patient with primary dysmenorrhea which contains of kinesiological analysis and therapy using selected methods of physical therapy. Keywords Primary dysmenorrhea, secondary dysmenorrhea, menstrual cycle, pain, physiotherapy . I agree the thesis paper to be lent within the library...
Functional disorders of the locomotor system in patients with primary dysmenorrhea
Nosková, Petra ; Ježková, Martina (advisor) ; Jevič, Filip (referee)
The thesis deals with primary dysmenorrhea (PD) in relation to the locomotor system. The aim of the the sis was to compare the frequency of selected joint blocks and the incidence of constitutional hypermobility in PD patients in comparison with the control group. The patient group included 9 women with PD symptoms and the control group consisted of 10 women without these symptoms. The incidence of atlanto - occipital joint block within the patient group was significantly higher than within the control group (p < 0,05). The total number of stuck ribs was also considerably higher in PD patients (p < 0,01). Pain on palpation on the top of the coccygeum apex was significantly higher within the patient group (p < 0,001). Patients with PD did not show significantly different results in Beighton score test for constitutional hypermobility assessment when compared with the control group. Another aim of the thesis was to judge the effect of physical therapy on PD symptoms. For three months, the group of 9 patients had been encouraged to do regular exercises with the impact on postural stability and diagnosed functional disorders of the locomotor system by means of physical therapy. As was shown after the therapy, the reduction of the total number of stuck ribs was statistically significant (p < 0,001). Furthermore,...
