Physiotherapy in patients before intended hip joint replacement within the concept of prehabilitation
OLAHOVÁ, Marie
This bachelor thesis deals with the possibility of physiotherapy before the planned hip joint surgery within the concept of prehabilitation. In this thesis I deal with the possibility of preparing patients for this extensive operation. In the theoretical part, I process the knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology of the hip joint, then I outline the issue of the concept of prehabilitation, which is becoming an increasingly discussed topic abroad. In the next part, I provide information related to the total hip arthroplasty and complications during this procedure. Then the possibilities of preoperative physiotherapy are described in the thesis. The aim of this thesis was to record the preparation and describe the physiotherapeutic intervention in a group of patients before the planned hip replacement, for which I used qualitative research methods. The research unit consisted of one man and two women, therapy was usually performed 1-2 times a week for 60-75 minutes, for approximately two months. The data were collected by using an initial and final kinesiological analysis, an interview and an observation. According to that, a rehabilitation plan based on kinesiological and physiotherapeutic procedures and individually tailored to patients was developed. All probands received an exercise unit, which they practiced at home. All patients improved and two of the three patients underwent surgery without complications and the recovery progressed without problems. A third patient did not undergo surgery for epidemiological reasons. The work can inform the professional public, physiotherapists or students of physiotherapy about the possibilities of preoperative rehabilitation.
