Aerobic training in the treatment of gait disorders in patients with Parkinson's disease
KOCÁBKOVÁ, Štěpánka
This bachelor thesis investigates the effect of aerobic training on gait disorders in patients with Parkinson's disease. The specific features of gait in this disease are short, shuffling steps, slowed movement, impaired balance and reduced upper limb synkinesis. All of these features can, apart from the application of medication, be influenced to some extent by regular exercise. The aim of this bachelor thesis was to design a suitable exercise unit for these patients and to describe the effect of aerobic training on gait disorders. The theoretical part is an introduction to the issue of Parkinson's disease. Subchapters describe the definition, incidence, research history, anatomy and physiology of the basal ganglia, etiology, clinical features, stages, diagnosis and treatment. Furthermore, there is compared gait analysis of Parkinson's disease patients with healthy individuals and what the term aerobic training means. The practical part is processed in the form of qualitative research. Based on the input examination of three patients diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, I created an exercise unit, which can be found in Appendix 3. After three months, I did an output examination and compared if the created exercise unit had a positive effect in gait disorders or not. From the results, the positive effect of aerobic training on gait disorder in Parkinson's disease patients could not be clearly demonstrated. For a valid result, research would need a larger number of patients. However, patients evaluated the exercise unit positively and I believe that this work could find further application, for example in the clinical practice of physiotherapists or as an educational material for patients with Parkinson's disease and their family members.

Author: Bc. Alžběta Anna Šimurdová Title: The attitude of university students towards sport and physical activities Objectives: The main objective of this thesis is to determine whether university students tend to do more physical activities and sports compared to people who have been already working and whether they do have any preferences in sports or any other physical activities. Another objective is an analysis and comparison of diet between the two groups in order to focus on their regime, addictions, sleep, and daily routines. Methods: This thesis is based on a quantitative type of research. The SFSPA questionnaire was elected as the main research method. This questionnaire was adjusted to meet the needs of the theoretical outcomes of this thesis. The questionnaire was published through a form on Google Forms, from which all the answers were transferred into an MS Excel file where all the data were processed into written form, all the results transferred to graphs and contingency tables were formed.

Out of all 294 participants, 187 were university students, and 107 working citizens. The gender distribution for this questionnaire was 202 women...
The influence of rhytmical movemet on patients with Parkinson's disease
MYSLIVCOVÁ, Anna
This bachelor thesis deals with the issue of a progressive neurological disease called Morbus Parkinson, which is translated to Czech as Parkinson's disease. This disease irreversibly damages the central nervous system and cannot be cured yet. It is only possible to alleviate the symptoms by pharmacological treatment and improve the quality of life of the patients with the help of rehabilitation. The aim of the work is to describe the main issues of the disease, to clarify the possibilities of physiotherapy and to design a rhythmic exercise unit on the basis of which educational videos for home exercise of patients with Parkinson's disease were created. The first part summarizes general knowledge about Parkinson's disease, history, development and rehabilitation. Most of the work deals with the research itself, which was attended by 3 clients with Parkinson's disease. The individual case reports consist of an initial entrance examination, which also includes, for example, tests evaluating stability and gait. This is followed by two months, during which the exercises took place once a week and then the current state was compared with the results of the initial examination. The studies found and the subjective evaluation of probands show that it is appropriate to include rhythmic exercises in the rehabilitation. Due to the state of emergency lasting continuously from 5th October 2020, it was not possible to conduct group exercises, so the exercises were conducted with two patients online, which allowed patients to exercise safely at home and were not at risk of infection. One patient underwent exercises normally after loosening of the regulations issued by the government. The work can serve as a source of information for the lay and professional public and methods of solution can be used in physiotherapeutic practice.
The effect of a regular exercise on the health of patients with Parkinson´s disease
DUBNOVÁ, Veronika
The bachelor thesis deals with the influence of regular exercise on the health of patients suffering from Parkinson's disease. This disease still remains an incurable disease that affects the human central nervous system and leads to its irreversible damage. Until now, the treatment of the disease has only made it possible to alleviate individual symptoms in the long term and thus maintain the patient's quality of life. An important part from the early stages of the disease is not only a pharmacological treatment but also a rehabilitation. The theoretical part of this work deals with a summary of information about Parkinson's disease, its origin, clinical picture, diagnosis and treatment options. The practical part of the work was processed by the method of qualitative research, which was done on the basis of an input and output examination, medical history taking, an interview and an evaluation of patients' ability to walk. The obtained data were compiled in the form of case reports. The study group consisted of 3 patients with a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, who regularly attended group exercises once a week. The first goal was to evaluate the patient's condition during regular group exercise and the condition after 8 weeks without a group exercise. The second goal was to create an exercise unit for patients suffering from Parkinson's disease. Due to the small number of probands studied, it is certainly not possible to state whether the regular exercise once a week was sufficient in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. However, it was obvious that the patients felt good during the exercise, it positively affected their psychosocial condition and also their condition. Although I did not come to clear conclusions, I presume that the chosen therapy was beneficial.

Compensation exercises as a means of correcting of muscle imbalances in people with sedentary occupation
Augustinová, Michaela ; Hronzová, Marie (advisor) ; Hájková, Jana (referee)
The topics of this diploma thesis are issues of a sedentary lifestyle and the influence of compensatory exercises as an instrument to compensate the muscle imbalances associated with it. In the theoretical part of my thesis, I focused on explaining and defining the basic problems of this topic and then on several already published international studies dealing with this issue for a long time. I have chosen three studies that reflect the problem on the human body and show significant problems connected with a sedentary lifestyle. For my own research I created compensation exercises for my selected reference group, that is the good specimen due to its sedentary occupation and the age between 40-51, based on the published international studies. For my research I have used the method of experiment in which I have used the testing, examination and evaluation techniques of the motor system. The plan of compensation exercises I created based on the imbalances I have studied and problems associated with a sedentary lifestyle. My research was also focused on the positive effects of physical activity in this group due to their workload and the causal link between a sedentary lifestyle and health of the respondents. The main objective of my thesis is to demonstrate the impact of this plan of compensation...
