Možnosti fyzioterapie u dětí po operaci nosních mandlí
VAŠKOVÁ, Zuzana
This bachelor thesis deals with the problem of hypertrophied nasal tonsils known as adenoid vegetation. This is a very common condition amongst children and it is usually operated by surogical removal, in other words by adenotomy. An enlarged nasal tonsil often causes obstruction of the nasal passages that leads to mouth breathing. This incorrect way of breathing leads to changes in the orofacial area, as well as weakening of the respiratory muscles and poor posture. The theoretical part focuses on the correct breathing mechanics, symptoms and treatment of adenoid vegetation and its effect on the postural and respiratory system of children. The aim of this theses was to describe the symptoms and the effect of adenoid vegetation on the postural and respiratory system. The second aim was to map the possibilities of physiotherapy. After adenotomy, there is often no spontaneous recovery of nasal breathing. The defective stereotype needs to be modified and at the same time the defects of the poor posture need to be corrected. The practical part contains a description of the methodology and the course of the research. The research was conducted in a qualitative form and consists of two case studies of children who underwent adenotomy. Their medical history was collected and initial analysis was carried out. Subsequently, individual respiratory and postural therapy was performed. At the end of therapy, an exit kinesiological analysis was made. Finally, the input and output analyses were compared at the end of the practical part. The research showed that postural stabilization and respiratory mechanics improved after the therapy. This bachelor thesis can be a source of useful information for professionals or parents of children after adenotomy

Poor posture in school-age children and possibilities of physiotherapeutical influence
NOVOTNÁ, Dominika
This bachelor's thesis deals with poor posture of school-age children and the possibilities of physiotherapeutic influence. Poor posture is becoming more and more topical and number of children with poor posture is increasing. One of the most common causes is the inappropriate lifestyle of today's children, when children spend most of the day sitting at school and then at home at the computer or television. The bachelor thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part deals with the anatomy of the musculoskeletal system, more precisely the spine, pelvis and legs. The next chapter describes correct and defective posture, how defective posture can be investigated and factors influencing poor posture. The last chapter of the theoretical part contains the characteristics of school age. The main goal of this bachelor's thesis is to design our own exercise unit for school-age children with poor posture, which is then used for exercise with three probands with poor posture. This exercise unit was processed into an educational brochure and attached to the bachelor's thesis. A partial goal of the work is the analysis of the most common causes of poor posture of children and another partial goal is to propose prevention of this problem. The practical part was carried out in the form of qualitative research. The research includes three school-age probands with whom the therapy was done according to my proposed exercise unit. The practical part contains anamnesis, initial kinesiological analysis and descriptions of individual therapies. The therapies took place from the beginning of February 2020 to the middle of April 2020, when a joint therapy took place every week and the rest of the week the probands had to train at home according to the exercise brochure and exercises they learned on the therapy. All patients have improved, so research shows that therapy for children with poor posture is beneficial, but probands must continue the learned exercise to improve their posture significantly. This work can be used as an educational material for children and parents, or in the clinical practice of physiotherapists.

Nedvěd, Jonáš ; Daďová, Klára (advisor) ; Knappová, Věra (referee)
Abstract title: Postural deviations and their compensations of blind cyclist Thesis objective: The objective of this thesis is to create a compensatory motional program for a visually impaired client. Compensatory motional program deals with the positive influence of defective body posture and pain alleviation of relevant muscular areas, particularly in the areas of cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine. Method: The research method is qualitative examinations by usage of pretest and posttest designs. The thesis is conceived as the case report of a 31-year-old patient with acquired handicap. Exercise in fitness center was selected as part of compensatory motional program with the application of stretching, relaxing and work-out exercise. Additionally, hippotherapy was practiced to improve the stability of individual body areas, as well as to generally enhance the body posture. The testing methods for defective body postures by Jaroš and Lomíček, Matthiase; as well as testing method by Janda, were applied for the verification of program effect. The HHT motor test was applied for the verification of hippotherapy. Results: Compensatory motional program positively influenced the body posture of the clients already after three months of exercise. The integral part of hippotherapy was also the influence of...

Indications of thermoplastic insoles for younger school-age children
JIRÁŇOVÁ, Barbora
In this bachelor work I deal with Indication of thermoplastic shoe soles in children of younger school age. In the theoretic part I describe kinesiology and the most common defects of the foot, walking, proper body posture and its possible deviations, appropriate footwear for children and thermoplastic soles Formthotics. The practical part of the thesis consists of qualitative research, which was created on the basis of entry and exit examination. A total of ten subjects were included in the research (6 boys and 4 girls under 12 years of age). During the initial examination, the soles were simultaneously individually adjusted, and the final examination was performed after three months of use. The aim of this work was to map the most common indications of individually modified prefabricated shoe soles in children of younger school age and to evaluate the change of posture on the basis of comparison of entry and exit examination after three months of their use. The most common indications included flexibly flat foot and poor posture. At this time, the prevalence of poor posture in children and adults is increasing. There are many factors that can cause wrong body posture. The decrease of all-round movement and non-ideal psychomotor development in children is said to be a common reason for the creation of wrong body posture. From a physiotherapy perspective, it would be best to prevent wrong body posture with targeted exercises; however, children at this age are difficult to motivate to exercise. Therefore, one of the possible remedies we can use is individual soft shoe soles. After three months of use of soles, a improvement in position of ankle and knee joints axis and walking stereotype occurred in most subjects. In some subjects, an betterment of their flattened feet and the posture of their body was registered. However, active exercises would be needed to strengthen weakened muscle groups. Therefore, I created educational material that contains several exercises to supplement therapy. This work can be used by parents of children with wrong body posture or flat foot and physiotherapy students.

Rehabilitation effect of Hippotherapy on bad posture of older elementary school children
KOKEŠOVÁ, Michaela
This bachelor thesis deals with the influence of rehabilitation hippotherapy on poor posture in older school-age children. It is necessary to search already in childhood for development causes of musculoskeletal diseases when the muscular imbalance develops due to an incorrect load on the musculoskeletal system, leading to poor posture. In the recent years an enormous increase in the poor posture in children has been discussed, the increase being connected to the change of lifestyle, to an increase in obesity, largely to the lack of physical exercise and one-sidedness of modern lifestyle. Hippotherapy is a method of physiotherapy using the natural horse movement at the walk as a stimulating and physiotherapeutic element. By achieving kinetic harmony of the client and the horse, an activation of non-pathological movement programs occurs. A possible beneficial influence on change in poor posture in children before completion of growth is considered, the result of which could be the possibility of avoiding potential emergence of scoliosis in adolescence up to adulthood. This bachelor thesis has one research question and two objectives. The objectives are to map out the influence of hippotherapy on the improvement of body posture in older school-age children and to develop a specific therapeutic procedure of hippotherapy for the observed probands. The research question analyses whether and which changes occurred after the hippotherapy in the observed probands. The theoretical part consists of two sections, in the first section I deal with the issue of poor posture. Here is the emergence of the poor posture outlined. In the following part, the terms of poor posture, ideal posture, posture and deep stabilization system are defined. Last but not least I dedicate myself with poor posture diagnostics, namely with the most used methods such as the Matthias posture test. The last part is devoted to causes and prevention of poor posture. The second section deals with the hippotherapy as such, the terms of hipporehabilitation and hippotherapy are defined there. I also deal with brief history. In the next chapter the practical performance of hippotherapy is described, where I present the hippotherapeutic team, equipment, and outline the choice importance of a suitable horse for the given therapy. Other chapters include the mechanics of horse movement with the summary of all horse gaits. In the last chapter I introduce the basic positions used in hippotherapy. In the practical part of the bachelor thesis a qualitative research was used in the form of processing complete case studies of two probands attending civic association O.S. Krapet Dynín. To obtain all the necessary data, a kinesiological analysis was conducted and medical history taken. Interviews were conducted with the probands' parents because the respondents did not reach the age of majority and it could lead to a distortion of information. Furthermore, a static examination by front, rear and side aspection was performed with both probands. Other examinations which were performed include Trendelenburg-Duchenne test, Thomayer test, Matthias test, the posture standard according to Klein and Thomas and the examination of gait. It follows from the above that positive effects of rehabilitation hippotherapy were observed in probands. They both continue the therapy praising the positive effects achieved during it. The bachelor thesis can be used as educative and informational material for physiotherapy students and as a basis for further research. The purpose of the work is to raise awareness of the issue among both general and professional public.

Pinkasová, Lenka ; Bunc, Václav (advisor) ; Hošková, Blanka (referee)
Title: Assessment of motor performance and body holding in young school-age children Objectives: The aim of this thesis is the assessment of motor performance, body holding and basic information concerning movement activity in young school-age children and to reveal any possible interrelations between these data. Hypothesis: 1. The volume of movement load in young school-age children affects their motor performance and body holding. 2. Motor performance evaluated by a modification of the UNIFITTEST has a significant correlation with body holding in young school age children. Methods: In order to determine the level of motor performance of the children, I used a modification of the UNIFITTEST (Měkota et al., 2002), while I also evaluated their basic somatic parameters. Their body holding was evaluated according to Mathias (Hošková and Matoušová 2007), Jaroš and Lomníček (Hošková and Matoušová 2007) and Adams's Test (Haladová and Nechvátalová 2005). Information about the frequency of the children's sports activities and their lifestyle, I collected with the form of a short survey. The research group consists of 19 boys and 11 girls with an average age of 9 years old (age range 8-11 years - by 1.1.2018), mean body height of 1.4 m (σ=8,2 cm) and mean body weight of 36.5 kg (σ=9,1 kg). Results:...

Possibilities of physiotherapy in vertebral problems connected with children headache at the age from 0-15 years
PROCHÁZKOVÁ, Nikol
This thesis describes possibilities of physiotherapy for children under 15 years of age suffering from headaches associated with low back problems. Nowadays, children sit prolongated periods of time using computers and mobile phones. It often leads to poor posture, which can cause headaches. Improper sitting leads to weakening of trunk muscles, kyphotic spine, and neck muscle group overload. The aim of this study is to explore vertebral problems associated with headaches and propose specific options of physiotherapy to improve overall posture. The study consists of theoretical and practical parts. The theoretical part describes the anatomy of a spine and its connection to a head, and headache causes. Then it describes possibilities of physiotherapy to be used in case of a vertebral headache and issues. The practical part was processed by means of qualitative research. It consists of study objectives, methodology and results of the research. In a test group there were three children aged 9 to 15, two boys and one girl. Therapy was carried out every week for two months. Based on an input kinesiology test, each test person was assigned a short- and long-term rehabilitation and exercise plan. At the end of the therapy, the subjects had output kinesiology examination, the results were compared, and also evaluated by the subjects. The process is documented by photographs of the entry and exit inspections and sample exercises. With all test subjects, the headache receded, the respiratory stereotype was corrected and overall posture improved.

Determining the most common functional disorders of the musculoskeletal system of primary school children, particularly in 5th grade at elementary schools in the district Tabor
POPOVIČOVÁ, Žaneta
This graduation thesis deals with the occurrence of the most common functional disorders of the locomotor system in children in 5th grade at elementary schools in the district of Tábor. The research was implement on twenty-two primary schools. In total, 786 children from the 36th grade in the Tábor District were monitored and evaluated. The task of the thesis was the processing of literary research based on the study of Czech and foreign literature. In addition, obtaining the approval of school principals and pupils' parents to conduct research. As part of our research, we used the test method using standardized tests for examination of body posture, according to Matthias and Jaros and Lomicek. Part of the research was also the measurement of the pupils' weight and height and the subsequent calculation of the BMI index. The collected data were processed into tables and the frequency of the faults was evaluated in the graphs. Overall results showed different values of posture assessment. According to Jaros and Lomicek, nearly 20% of children had a perfect body posture, good 72%, badly less than 8%, and very bad holdings appeared in 1.5% of the investigated. Matthias's test showed nearly 70% of good body posture, 29% of pupil posture defective and 1% defective posture with fixed deviation. The most common functional disorders of this research group include primarily enlarged lumbar lordosis. This research has confirmed the importance of everyday physical activity and compensatory exercise in the fight against functional disorders.
