EMGs of Back Muscles in Relation with Different Settings of the Straps of Backpacks
Strejcová, Hana ; Vilímek, Miloslav (advisor) ; Goldmann, Tomáš (referee)
Title: EMGs of Back Muscles in Relation with Different Settings of the Straps of Backpacks Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the electrical activity of chosen muscles during the gait with student backpack and during the different types of placing the backpack on the back in the vertical plane. The second aim is to find what it the best type of the backpack placement on the back based on the electrical activity. Methods: This thesis is an analytical-experimental research. In the theoretical part, there is a review of available sources relating to existing studies about load carriage, especially backpack carrying. It is preferentially about school type of backpaks, the recommended load limit, the way of placing a backpack on the back and the way of placing a load in the backpack. In the experimental part, there are methods used during experiment. The surface electromyografy was chosen as a experimental method. M. trapezius pars descendens, m. erector spinae and m. rectus abdomis were chosen for recording the EMG signal. The data were recorded during the gait with the backpack of 10% of proband's weight and during 3 different types of backpack placement. The upper type of placement was placed with the centre of the backpack in the level of seventh thoracic vertebra (T7), the middle type...
