Physiotherapy methods for fractures of the femur after moto-accidents
VOHRALÍKOVÁ, Kristýna
This thesis is entitled Physiotherapy in fractures of the femur after moto-accidents and examines the feasibility of using different physiotherapeutic techniques for this type of diagnosis. The work consists of theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is a summary of knowledge about the anatomy of the femur, kinesiology of the hip and knee joints and there are outlined physiotherapeutic methods that can be used to influence femur fractures incurred after moto-accidents in the patient's immobile phase and later in the period after the immobilization. In the practical part, which was drawn up in the form of qualitative research, is then prepared a case report of a patient with the given diagnosis, input and output kinesiology analysis, itemized individual therapeutic unit and at the end of practical part described the evaluation of the effect of therapy. The aim of this work is to monitor the physiotherapeutic methods and techniques used in the treatment of patients with fracture of the femur and also to explain the problems of these injuries and their subsequent complications in treatment. The methods used have produced positive results such as significant improvement of the patient's health, particularly his joint movement in all directions, muscle strength, posture and walking stereotype. The work may be useful in practice for healthcare workers in the trauma department at the hospital or outpatient clinics, where they carry out subsequent rehabilitation of these patients. Furthermore, due to the seasonal type of injury can take advantage of the work and health professions students who meet with these patients passing the summer practice.
