Sažetak
Main objective of this thesis is to demonstrate and
explain more closely rehabilitation process after
ventralization and medialization of the patella that
includes implementation of physical therapy and
kinesitherapeutical plan and program. Because of
extremely increased Q angle i.e. angle between
quadriceps tendon and patellotibial ligament pain in
lateral patellofemoral joint occurs and stronger straining
of the knee can cause patellar subluxation or dislocation.
Permanent success of Elmslie-Trillat surgery
method is achieved by early start and daily
implementation of correct rehabilitation program that is
assembled by physical therapist and kinesitherapist with
regular follow ups by an orthopedic surgeon. Here is
demonstrated 12 week rehabilitation program which
needs to be adjusted to every patient and its
implementation should be planned to be slower or quicker
in collaboration with ortopedic surgeon.
Exercises by the physical therapist program starts
already second day after the surgery after the drain
removal and patient verticalization with passive exercise
of the knee joint. From physical procedures in
rehablitation are applied: electrotherapy, magneto
therapy, ultrasound therapy, laser therapy and
cryotherapy. At the same time with the physical
procedures kynesitherapy is implemented based on
rehabilitation plan and program, and those are: active and
passive exercises, exercses of the open and closed kinetic
chain, static and dynamic exercises, proprioceptive
exercises and straining exercises by PNF method.
Rehabilitation program should bring the patient into
completely rehabilitated state so patient could continue
with his everyday activities and sport activities. At the
implementation of the program it should be careful not to
put too much pressure on the knee which could cause
injury.
