Comparison of Complete and Short Form of Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency Second Edition (BOT-2) in Patients after Treatment of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Patrmanová, Eliška ; Štveráková, Tereza (advisor) ; Křížová, Barbora (referee)
This diploma thesis is focused on the comparison and usability of the Short Form (SF) and the Complete Form (CF) of the test battery Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency, Second Edition (BOT-2) in individuals after the treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In the theoretical part, an overview of findings related to ALL, assessment of motor development, and especially the BOT-2 test battery is given. The main goal of the practical part was to verify the comparability of results from the most commonly used forms of BOT-2 in patients after ALL treatment. Methodology: 37 participants aged 4-21 years (mean age 10.3 years; SD ±3.9) were included in the study. The level of motor proficiency was measured with the BOT-2 CF. Data for the SF was extracted from the CF and processed using Two-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis, and correlation analysis. Results: Two-Way ANOVA results showed that post-ALL patients achieved a significantly (p < 0.001; Hays ω2 = 0.41) lower standard score in the SF (45.1 ±7.9) compared to the CF (49.1 ±9.4). Acceptable sensitivity (72.3 %) and high specificity (91.9 %) of the BOT- 2 SF were proven. Conclusion: The BOT-2 SF can be used to screen overall motor proficiency and classify an individual's result in the...

Alberta Infant Motor Scale - Motor Development of Infant from Birth to One Year
Krylová, Adéla ; Vítová, Veronika (advisor) ; Nováková, Olga (referee)
Summary: Goals - The purpose of this work is to introduce the Canadian standardized assessment - Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) to specialists. The test evaluate motor development of infants from birth to the eighteen months of age. Theoretical part - In this part I have summarized the need of standardized assessment for occupational therapists and the importance of early intervention for infants to one year age. The next chapter is about psychomotor development of newborn and infant. The main part is devoted to informations about the assessment AIMS. The last part is dealt with an overview of methods used in the pediatric occupational therapy. Practical part - I used AIMS assessment in practice and then in the form of case study, I have put the results of my testing with practical proposals for occupational therapy intervention.

The evaluation of gross motor function and coordination in primary school children
Kuběnová, Jana ; Satrapová, Lenka (advisor) ; Nováková, Tereza (referee)
Title: The evaluation of gross motor function and coordination in primary school children Defining the issue: The physical activity and sport are highly discussed topics in current time. The physical activity itself has a positive effect on our body in many ways, on the contrary the lack of it has a negative effect. In the younger school age there should be a diversity of physical activity and it should often vary. If, in this period of age, the physical activity would be in the form of specialized sport training with dominant asymetric load without any compensating activity, the effect of that training would be probably negative and even harming for the growing body of young children, who are not prepared for that type of burden. To ensure an adequate development of specific skills and gaits the appropriate level of gross motor function and coordination is required. The evaluation of such movement features after reaching bipedal locometion is mediocre at best and the current test batteries are limited in application. For these reasons the goal was to create new battery of tests and use it to evaluate the gross motor function and coordination in primary school children and assessment of the impact of gender and extracurricular activity on the results. The purpose of the study: The purpose of this...
