Possibilities of evaluating the effect of rehabilitation aimed at improving postural stability in adults.
Heřmanská, Dagmar ; Stříbrný, Martin (advisor) ; Kolář, Jáchym (referee)
The paper deals with the comparison of different options for assessing the effect of physiotherapy aimed mainly at improving postural stability in adult patients. The theoretical part of the bachelor thesis defines postural stability, its optimal function in physiological situations and the most common pathologies. The clinical consequences of postural stability disorders and their treatment options are discussed. The most frequent consequence of insufficient postural stability is chronic low back pain (in the English literature "LBP"). The knowledge about the possibilities of clinical evaluation of the effect of physiotherapy is discussed. It is a subjective assessment by the patient, using PROM questionnaires (Patient- reported Outcome Measures) and DNS manual. Furthermore, the possibilities of objective assessment-dynamometry (DNS Brace device), Moiré and Pedoscan are described. The paper describes the principle of these devices and evaluates their advantages and disadvantages in clinical practice. The practical part contains case reports of two patients with chronic LBP. The patients are evaluated with the above mentioned procedures before and after a series of six hourly therapies with weekly frequency. The therapy was performed at the Pavel Kolar Center for Movement Medicine under the...

A Case Study of Physiotherapy on a Patient with Vertebral Algic Syndrome of the Lower Spine
Šauerová, Lucie ; Novotná, Irena (advisor) ; Nováková, Tereza (referee)
Author: Lucie Šauerová Supervisor: Mgr. Irena Novotná Title: A Case Study of Physiotherapy on a Patient with Vertebral Algic Syndrome of the Lower Spine Objectives: The aim of this bachelor's thesis is to provide a comprehensive summary of theoretical information related to lower back pain. The work includes a list of the most suitable diagnostic and therapeutic methods to this issue. Lastly, the thesis provides a case study of physiotherapeutic care for a patient with lower back pain. Methods: Throughout the duration of the case study, I applied physiotherapeutic methods and procedures that I had acquired during my three-year study of physiotherapy at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport in Charles University. Results: The effectiveness of physiotherapeutic care was assessed by comparing the patient's initial and final kinesiological assessment, which are summarized in the chapter titled "Evaluation of Therapy Effect". The therapy had a favorable impact on the patient's overall condition. Conclusion: This bachelor's thesis is based upon continuous professional practice. The first part of the thesis focuses on theoretical knowledge related to the problem of lower back pain. The second part of the thesis is dedicated to a specific case study of a patient suffering from this syndrome. This...

The Use of McKenzie Approach in the Therapy of low Back Pain.
Štičková, Zuzana ; Muchová, Renáta (advisor) ; Táborská, Silvie (referee)
Title of thesis The Use of McKenzie Approach in the Therapy of Low Back Pain. Abstract: The present thesis addresses the issue of treatment of low back pain and in this respect considers the effectiveness of the McKenzie method. The first sections of the theoretical part of this thesis are focused on the kinesiology and pathology of the components of the lumbar spine. Further sections explain the principles of the mechanical diagnosis and therapy, i.e. the McKenzie method. Their focus is to present the specific features and advantages of this approach. The aim of the practical part is to assess the effectiveness of the McKenzie method in patients with chronic low back pain whose previous treatment had no or only a short term effect. Qualitative research based on three case studies has been chosen to achieve this aim. By assessing and comparing both subjective parameters (e.g. the intensity, distribution and frequency of pain) and objective parameters (e.g. the range of motion, neurological symptoms) before and after the treatment by the McKenzie method, its effectiveness for the use in therapy of chronic low back pain was determined. The results testify in favour of the McKenzie method as a convenient approach in treating patients with this diagnosis. Key words: McKenzie, mechanical diagnosis and therapy,...

Monitoring the effect of physiotherapy from the view of a patient with discopathy using Oswestry disability index Subtitle: By means of Robin McKenzie method
Šrytr, Martin ; Šímová, Alena (advisor) ; Leško, Juraj (referee)
This thesis is focused on the treatment of chronic lumbar back pain using Robin McKenzie method as a therapeutic approach. The theoretical part deals with the physiology of the spine, its pathophysiology and complications related to that. It also presents the McKenzie method, its fundamentals and clinical use. It also describes the Oswestry disability index, which was chosen as a subjective tool for evaluating the effectiveness of therapies from the patient's perspective. The practical part aims to answer the question whether the McKenzie method is a suitable tool for influencing chronic back pain. To answer this question a qualitative research in the form of case studies was made. The key role for assessing the effect of therapy was played by intensity of pain, which was evaluated by the Oswestry questionnaire, dynamics of the spine and neurological symptoms. The results, which were concluded during therapies, argue in favour of the Robin McKenzie method, which is a suitable therapeutic approach to influence chronic lumbar back pain.

Case Study of Physiotherapy Treatment of a Patient with Low Back Pain
Zonn, Alexandra ; Maršáková, Kateřina (advisor) ; Dušánek, Tomáš (referee)
Author: Alexandra Zonn Title: Case study of physiotherapy treatment of a patient with low back pain Objectives: The aim of this bachelor thesis is to consolidate and summarize theoretical information related to the issue of the pain in the lumbar area of the spine. Listing out appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic methods and approaches. Elaboration of a case study report of physiotherapeutic care for a patient according to given difficulties. Methods: Physiotherapeutic methods and procedures, achieved during my three-year study experience of physiotherapy at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, at Charles University, were applied while elaborating a current case study report. Summary: Current Bachelor's thesis was developed on the basis of completing a continuous professional practice at the University Hospital Královské Vinohrady in the period from 6.1. to 31.1.2020. The first part of the work is general and summarizes theoretical issues related to the issue of the pain in the lumbar area of the spine. The second part of the work is devoted to the elaboration of a case study report of a patient according to given difficulties. The case study report was constructed from the initial and final examination, process of the therapy and the final evaluation of the results. Keywords:...
