Influence of regularly repeated asymmetric load on the locomotor system in sweep rowers
Mikulík, Lukáš ; Malá, Jitka (advisor) ; Maršáková, Kateřina (referee)
Title: Influence of regularly repeated asymmetric load on the locomotor system in sweep rowers. Objectives: Aim of this diploma thesis is to compare posture, foot loading symmetries and prevalence of low back pain in a group of sweep rowers with groups of scull rowers and non-rowing probands based on the results of the pedobarographic assessment, assessment of the posture using method of moiré topography and the results obtained from the clinical assessment. Methods: Number of 21 sweep rowers, 20 scull rowers and 23 non-rowing peers were enrolled to the study of this diploma thesis. Each subject was assessed using DIERS formetic 4D and DIERS pedoscan devices. Additionally, participants in each group were assessed by FAIR test, Cluster of Laslett, triggerpoint palpation of the m. piriformis and Visual analog scale, that was used to assess intensity of pain in the lumbar region. Results: In comparison with observed scull rowers, sweep rowers showed greater rotational deviation of the trunk at the level of the L3 vertebrae and larger sway area of the COP on the left leg during quiet stance on both legs. Subsequently, sweep rowers displayed greater magnitude of scoliotic angle during walking throughout single support phase on the left leg and double support phase in the transition from the left leg to...
The relationship between Véle-test results and results of instrumented evaluation of postural stability
Dvořáčková, Terezie ; Šorfová, Monika (advisor) ; Tlapáková, Eva (referee)
Title: The relationship between Véle-test results and results of instrumented evaluation of postural stability Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between a clinical tool for measuring postural stability, Véle-test and instrumented evalution of the same modality. The observed parameters are COM movement, range of motion in hip joints and in the functional complex of ankle and foot. An additional pedobarographic measurement was performed to define the relationship between Véle-test results and foot loading assymetry. The characteristics of this study suggest that our objective is also to find an approppriate aproach to further objectivization and stardardization of the Véle-test. In the first part of this thesis, I define the theoretical background for the experiment. Also, the current insight of physical therapy and biomechanics on the functional complex of the ankle and foot is described. Methods: The subjects (n=15, mean age 24y) were divided into two groups (S1, n1=7; S2, n2=8) according to the results of Véle test. Further, they underwent instrumented testing by pliance-x® sensing system, a 60s pedobarographic measurement was held in quiet standing. After, the Xsens MVN Link suit for 3D kinematic analysis was applied and the subjects were measured in two different...
Possibilities of objective diagnosis of flat foot
Palouš, Vojtěch ; Opálková, Michaela (advisor) ; Babková, Lenka (referee)
The subject of this work is the flat foot - pes planus. Foot mechanical functions are described including features demonstrating flatfoot pathology. I summarize knowledge in embryology, anatomy and biomechanics, and focus on possibilities to evaluate functions of the foot with both classical and modern methods. The goal of this work is survey of diagnostic methods, mainly current procedures of objective evaluation and determination of the precize kind of the foottype pathology. I also include my original measurements on a patient and I compare the conclusions based on individual methods.
Static and dynamic analysis of plantar pressure, spinal and pelvic motion in diagnosis femoroacetabular impingement
Štefková, Silvia ; Valouchová, Petra (advisor) ; Demeková, Júlia (referee)
Aim of this thesis is to evaluate distribution of plantar pressure and the movement of spine and pelvis in patients diagnosed with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. The results were obtained using Diers pedoscan system which can record the pressure distribution of feet during stance and motion. Also Diers formetric III 4D system was used to obtain photogrammetic records of spine and pelvis movement. We use rasterstereography based on Moiré topografy. Measured data represent three dimensional model of back surface during static or dynamic analysis. In addition we evaluated the effect of treatment using Dynamic neuromuscular stabilization. Obtained results were statistically processed. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

The distribution of the strain and differences of muscle activity of the lower limb during stance phase in two basic running techniques
Šimon, Jan ; Slabý, Kryštof (advisor) ; Pokorný, Jan (referee)
This thesis is focused on the function of the foot during the running activity. There are two basic running techniques taken in account - the rearfoot strike and the forefoot strike. The aim is to compare the distribution of the strain during the stance phase of running cycle and its relation to the muscle activity of the lower limb. To analyze the muscle activity we use the technique of electromyography (EMG). To measure the pressure during the stance phase we used Pedar - X insoles from the Novel company. As a conclusion we aim to map the distribution of the strain of all particular parts of the lower limb. At the same time we are bringing the proposals for eliminating the overexertion while keeping the same training intensity and volumes.
