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...

Utilization of standardized tests in traumatology from physiotherapist point of view
Chaloupková, Veronika ; Nováková, Petra (advisor) ; Havlová, Martina (referee)
Title of bachelor thesis: Utilization of standardized tests in traumatology from physiotherapist point of view Abstract: This bachelor thesis brings a complete overview and comparison of standardized tests for lower extremities in patients after trauma of lower extremities. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part describes the classification of injuries, general characteristics of standardized tests and standardized tests for lower extremities. The practical part consists of mutual comparing tests for evaluation of lower extremities, that could be used in a patient after trauma of lower extremities in terms of basic characteristics and parameters. Simultaneously three case studies are performed, where self-sufficiency has been evaluated using selected tests: Barthel Index and Modified Rivermead Index of Mobility and evaluation of functional lower extremity assessment using selected tests: Berg Balance Scale, Harris hip score, Oxford hip score, Oxford knee score, 2 minute walk test and Foot and ankle disability index. The testing was demonstrated at the beginning and end of the rehabilitation program with one-week distance. The results were evaluated and then compared. Key words: lower extremity, standardized tests, traumatology, measurement properties

Comparison of stability evaluation tests for patients after brain damage from physiotherapist point of view
Timková, Tereza ; Jeníček, Jakub (advisor) ; Slámová, Adéla (referee)
Title of bachelor thesis: Comparison of stability evaluation tests for patients after brain damage from physiotherapist point of view Abstract: This bachelor's thesis deals with comparison of stability evaluation tests for patients after brain damage. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part describes cerebrovascular accident, postural stability, and tests on assessment of stability. Tests on assessment of stability of patients after brain damage from the point of basic characteristics and parameters are compared in the practical part. At the same time, three case stories of patients, whose stability was assessed by selected tests, are provided: Berg Balance Scale, Mini- BESTest, and Tinetti Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment. Testing was done at the beginning and at the end of the rehabilitation program, after four-week interval. Results were analysed and compared subsequently. The thesis describes the importance of knowledge of the individual testing parameters to be able to assess whether condition of the patient has improved or deteriorated. Key words: stability, stroke, stability tests, measurement properties (clinimetric properties)
