Bezpalec, Jakub ; Marenčáková, Jitka (advisor) ; Řasová, Kamila (referee)
Title: Morphological profile of forefoot in school-age children in relation to the volume of physical activities Objectives: The aim of the thesis is to characterize the morphological profile of the foot with an emphasis on the forefoot and to identify specific differences between selected morphological parameters of the foot in school-age children based on different volumes of physical activity: significantly physically active, moderately physically active and physically inactive children. A secondary goal is to determine the profile of physical activities performed by children of younger school age and the relationship to selected foot deformities. Methods: The diploma thesis is a scientific-research work and has the character of an observational-descriptive non-experimental study. The research group of the study consisted of school children aged 6-10 years from three primary schools in Prague (average age 8 ±1.2 years, body height 132.8 ±8.6 cm, weight 29.9 ±7.7 kg, BMI 16 .8 ±16.8). The following dependent variables were measured: foot typology, function of the windlass mechanism of the foot, metaphalangeal joint stiffness of the big toe, and forefoot deformities between groups divided by the PAQ-C/CZ physical activity questionnaire. Questionnaire methods, a 3D leg scanner and selected clinical...
Strain-stress analysis of fixed bone of foot
Zapletal, Jakub ; Fuis, Vladimír (referee) ; Návrat, Tomáš (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with analysis of the rigidity of different variations of foot fixations. In the thesis there is a description of elementary anatomy of foot and its patology. Furthermore the possible corrections of hallux deformities and chosen fixators are described. The problem of analysis is soluted by the method of finite elements. The thesis also includes steps of geometery model creation based on 3D scanning. Three differents types of fixations are compared in this thesis and each of them is created in two different levels of details. There is a comparation, analysis of final solutions and chosen influences on the rigidity in the conclusion.
Analysis of the occurrence of hallux valgus in 12-15 years old ice hockey players.
Helmich, Tomáš ; Malá, Jitka (advisor) ; Reckziegelová, Petra (referee)
Title: Analysis of the occurrence of hallux valgus in ice hockey players aged 12-15 years Objectives: The main goal was to summarize the available facts about the occurrence of hallux valgus in hockey players and then quantitatively determine whether this diagnosis occurs more often in this group compared to the general population, already at the age of 12-15 years. Furthermore, the work tried to clarify the difference in occurrence between the individual posts of the group of hockey players. Methods: 102 probands between the ages of 12 and 15 participated in the research, who were divided into 2 groups. The first group consisted of 36 ice hockey players. The second group consisted of 66 elementary school students who do not actively play ice hockey. Only men were tested for gender differences in the incidence of hallux valgus in the population. Before the actual testing, specific anamnestic information was taken from the participants: age, dominance of the limb, in the case of hockey players, a game post was added for a more detailed investigation. Both groups were measured in a similar way, i.e. with a goniometer from the dorsal side. The angle in the metacarpophalangeal joint of the first finger was measured, on both lower limbs. The resulting data were recorded and processed using the software...
The use of passive correctors on the treatment of hallux valgus in combination with individual physiotherapy
Soejonová, Eliška ; Plevová, Kristýna (advisor) ; Benešová, Lucie (referee)
OF BACHELOR THESIS Name, surname: Eliška Soejonová Supervisor: Ing. Kristýna Plevová Title of bachelor's thesis: The use of passive correctors for the treatment of hallux valgus in combination with individual physiotherapy The bachelor thesis deals with the issue of hallux valgus deformity. This static deformity of the foreleg affects almost a third of the world's population and is one of the most common causes of foot pain. The deformity disrupts the kinesiology of the foot, increases the risk of falls and generally reduces the quality of life. Treatment using methods of physical therapy mainly includes active exercise and facilitation of the muscles of the foot. Hallux valgus deformity can also be treated with passive correctors. Objectives: The main objective of the bachelor thesis is the treatment of hallux valgus deformity using a combination of passive correctors and individual physiotherapy. A partial goal is to improve the values of the measured parameters - that is, to reduce pain, increase the activity of the intrinsic muscles and reduce the size of the hallux valgus angle. Methods: As part of the practical part, 3 patients with symptomatic hallux valgus deformity were selected according to the criteria and underwent a 30-day physiotherapy intervention. This consisted of 6 individual...
Complex therapy of hallux valgus
CHRÁSTKOVÁ, Petra
This bachelor thesis deals with the most common static deformity of the forefoot - hallux valgus and the therapy of this deformity in a complex concept with a focus on the overall posture of individual patients. Hallux valgus is characterized as a valgus position of the thumb with rotation at the MTP joint and with prominence of the head of the first metatarsal medially. This deformity rarely occurs alone and other static deformities are associated with it - transverse and longitudinal flatfoot or deformities of individual toes. Causes include wearing inappropriate footwear, genetics and other congenital predisposing factors, but from a functional and physiotherapist's point of view, the often neglected deep stabilization system (HSSP) and its overall alignment and functionality also play a crucial role. It is therefore important to get the word out to the general public, in addition to the experts, and to dispel the common population's perception that bunions are only a matter of wearing inappropriate footwear and that this common problem needs to be approached holistically across the entire posture. The main objectives of this study were to comprehensively map this issue from a physiotherapy perspective and to further design an individual exercise unit for patients with hallux valgus with respect to their overall posture. In the theoretical part, the anatomy and kinesiology of the foot is described, then the most common static deformities of the foot are presented with emphasis on the issue of hallux valgus. Towards the end, selected physiotherapeutic methods that can be used to influence this deformity are presented. The practical part was developed by means of qualitative research, in the form of several kinesiological analyses of selected patients with hallux valgus findings. The research population consisted of 3 probands (women). The research includes detailed initial and output kinesiological analyses of probands and individually designed exercise unit. The research was conducted in 9 therapy sessions and sessions. The results of the research are summarised in the practical section of this bachelor thesis. The probands improved in a number of the tests studied after the therapies and their general posture and physical condition were positively affected. This thesis can be used as study material for students of physiotherapy, but also as a summary of information for patients with hallux valgus or the public.
Influencing of static deformities of foot with using the method Propriofoot Concept
ŠOTOLOVÁ, Mirka
This bachelor's thesis deals with the topic of influencing of static deformities of foot by exercising on balance plates Propriofoot Concept. Target of this thesis was to summarize theoretical knowledge about static deformities of foot and the balance plates Propriofoot Concept and suggest an individual exercising unit on these balance plates to every patient. The thesis is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part summarizes knowledge about anatomy of foot and its functional division, further focuses on the individual static deformities of front part of foot, sensomotorics and the Propriofoot Concept method. The practical part is processed by a form of qualitative research. There are cases reports of four patients aged from 20 to 50 years who participated in this research and have some of the static deformities - the most often hallux valgus, metatarsalgia and hammer toes. The research has lasted for four months. Each case report contains an input and output kinesiological analysis, their summary, as well as a description of the course and evaluation of a short-term rehabilitation plan. The research part of the thesis shows that the exercise on plates using the Propriofoot Concept is also suitable and effective in the therapy of people who suffer from any of the static deformities of the foot. This bachelor thesis can be used as an educational material in the clinical practice of a physiotherapist, the work is also suitable as inspiration for the general public.
Hallux valgus in the context of physiotherapy
Lufinková, Hana ; Dudová, Agnieszka (advisor) ; Šifta, Petr (referee)
Objectives: This work solves the problem of hallux valgus deformities, aetiology, biomechanics, the possibility of conservative therapy, surgery and post-operative treatment. Methods: Data collection was made by questionnare survey of people during thein hospitalization for hallux valgus surgery and than after 4-5 months. Questionnaires are targeted primarily to conservative therapy and post-operative rehabilitation therapy. Results: Due to the small number of probands (20 people) can not be drawn significant conclusions. Hallux valgus deformity is often solved by surgery rather than by conservative treatement, mostly because of the decision of patients for treatment, when the deformity is in an advanced stage. Postoperative rehabilitation treatment has a positive effect on recovery, particularly in terms of reducing pain and swelling, to facilitate walking (subjectively).
