Comparison of standardized gait evaluation tests for post-stroke patients from physiotherapy point of view
Koberová, Monika ; Tichá, Monika (advisor) ; Drábová, Zuzana (referee)
Title of bachelor thesis: Comparison of standardized gait evaluation tests for post-stroke patients from physiotherapy point of view Abstract: This bachelor thesis deals with a comparison of standardized gait evaluation tests for post-stroke patients. The thesis consists of theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is focused on stroke, walking in general, characteristics of hemiparetic gait, standardization and standardized tests. The practical part provides the comparison of standardized gait evaluation tests for post-stroke patients from the viewpoint of essential characteristics and qualitative point of view. This part also contains case reports of two patients, in which the gait was evaluated using the selected standardized tests (10 Meter Walk Test, 2 Minute Walk Test, Timed Up and Go, Dynamic Gait Index) and one non-standardized test (Emory Functional Ambulation Profile). These tests were performed at the beginning and at the end of the therapy. Their results were subsequently evaluated and compared. The interpretation of the results in the context of measurement errors, minimal detectable changes and values describing the improvement or deterioration of patient's condition is emphasized in this bachelor thesis. Key words: gait, gait assessment, standardized tests, stroke, measurement...

The evaluation of gait and balance tests in patients after vestibular schwannoma surgery
Chejnovská, Lucie ; Čakrt, Ondřej (advisor) ; Hrubá, Silvie (referee)
The thesis deals with the evaluation of gait and balance tests in patients after vestibular schwannoma surgery. The experimental part focuses on the evaluation of dynamics of walking tests during hospitalization of patients diagnosed with vestibular schwannoma. The aim of the experimental part is also to analyze statistically significant correlations between measurable parameters of vestibulo-ocular reflex and walking tests and to evaluate the correlation between the subjective scale of fall fear and the objective assessment of walking and dynamic postural stability. A total of 28 patients aged 33 to 68 (14 men and 14 women) were incuded in the research with diagnosed vestibular schwannoma. Measurements were performed three times in patients (before surgery, after surgery and before the end of hospitalization). After the surgery, in addition to standard rehabilitation, training with visual biofeedback was included using the interactive Homebalance system. Gait and balance assessments were performed throug the tests Timed Up and Go, Four Step Square Test and Functional Gait Assessment. Examinations were complemented by a questionnaire of subjective assessment of fear of falling Falls Efficacy Scale. Statistical analysis showed a significant correlation coefficient in the correlation of Four Step...

The Gait Analysis of People with the Multiple Sclerosis
Havlištová, Michaela ; Ježková, Martina (advisor) ; Káfuňková, Petra (referee)
The Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is one of the most frequent reason of disability of people in productive age. Fatiglle and motor impairment affect the qllality of patients' life. This bachelor thesis focllses on the gait assessment of people aftlicted with the MS. It describes differences of gait of people aftlicted with the MS in compare to healthy people. The thesis shows clinical tests and relevant functional scales which can be lused for the gait assessment in any clinical practice. Instrumental methods of gait assessment are not discussed. There is one casllistry of people affected with the MS in practice pati ofthe thesis and inf1l1ence of the Vojta's therapy on these gait tests (TUG, T25FW, 1 OMWT, DGI and 6MWT).
