Title: Videomanual for the Administration of the Nine-Hole Peg Test according to the Czech Extended Version of the Manual for the Nine Hole Peg Test (NHPT) Abstract: Fine motor skills are a complex motor function for humans, thanks to which a person can participate in social and working life. This important function can be impaired by various diseases, traumatic injuries or degeneration. As part of comprehensive rehabilitation, an occupational therapist is a specialist who provides effective treatment. Occupational therapist uses standardized tests to evaluate the development of fine motor skills during treatment. These tests focus on various aspects of fine motor skills such as: muscle strength, range of motion, dexterity, manipulation and grip strength. The Nine Hole Peg Test assesses all of these aspects and is a very sensitive tool for evaluating treatment. Proper administration is essential for standardized tests, which should be performed exactly as instructed. For the Nine Hole Peg Test, an expanded Czech version of the NHPT manual was published in 2021, which contains new rules on how to proceed and evaluate situations arising during testing that did not have a uniform published solution in previous publications. The aim of this bachelor thesis was to create a videomanual for the administration of...

Title: Pilot Usability Testing of the Box and Block Test in Occupational Therapy by People after Stroke: Creating a Video Manual Abstract: Stroke often results in impaired upper limb function. Occupational therapists use standardized tests to objectively assess hand dexterity. An example is Box and Block Test (BBT), which assesses mainly fine and gross motor skills. The tested subject's task is to sequentially move as many blocks as possible from one side of the test box over partition to the other side using only the tested limb within one minute. For this test, only working versions of Czech translations of instructions by Mathiowetz et al. from 1985 were used in the Czech Republic. Therefore, in 2021 Rybářová et al. created Extended Czech Version of Manual for BBT with instructions in Czech. It also contains new more detailed rules that should ensure greater objectivity in the standardised implementation of BBT. According to these rules, it is possible to evaluate, for example, the situation when block falls outside the test box. The main goal of the bachelor thesis was to create video manual for correct administration of BBT according to the new manual. Therefore, video documentation was obtained using two healthy subjects as well as the author of this thesis. The video manual was then created in...

Title: Creating a Video Manual of Proper Administration of the Purdue Pegboard Test According to the Czech Extended Version of the Manual for the Purdue Pegboard Test (PPT): Model 32020A Abstract: A common consequence of a stroke is a fine motor skills dysfunction. The widely used Purdue Pegboard Test (PPT) measures the dexterity of the fingers of each hand separately or both together. The tested subject should insert as many components as possible into the holes in the test board during five time-limited subtests exactly according to the instructions written in the manual. In the Czech Republic, various working versions of the translation of the manual have been used so far, containing verbal instructions necessary for the administration of the test. In October 2021, the Czech Extended Version Manual for Purdue Pegboard Test (PPT): Model 32020A was published. In addition, it contains new rules for solving and evaluating situations (e.g. falling of a peg on the ground, changing hands during making assemblies), which therapists have not yet dealt with uniformly. Audio recordings of verbal instructions are also available to facilitate PPT correct administration. The aim of this bachelor's thesis was to create a videomanual of proper PPT administration according to the already mentioned new version of the...
