Awareness of healthy lifestyle during pregnancy among pregnant women
VOŠAHLÍKOVÁ, Vendula
The thesis deals with awareness of healthy lifestyle during pregnancy among pregnant women. Mistakes they might make during this period may have permanent negative effect on the foetus future life quality. Influences that might harm a child have to be highlighted. The healthy lifestyle principles during pregnancy involve sleeping, relaxation, nutrition, care of excretion, hygiene during pregnancy, suitable pregnancy clothing, sufficient moving, massage, sex in pregnancy, avoiding addictive substances, taking medicines, vaccination and travelling during pregnancy. There are four research goals. To learn about awareness of healthy lifestyle in pregnancy among pregnant women, to find out sources of information on healthy lifestyle in pregnancy, to learn about adherence on healthy lifestyle principles among pregnant women and to learn about physical activities of pregnant women. Four hypotheses were set to reach these goals, upon which an anonymous questionnaire aimed at finding out the theoretical knowledge of healthy lifestyle in pregnancy was prepared. The questionnaire contained 36 questions. The target group consisted of pregnant women in various gravidity stages. 150 questionnaires were handed out, of which 64 per cent returned. The result interpretation is based on 96 respondents. The research itself was held in 2 hospitals and 3 outpatient facilities. The first hypothesis assumes that today{\crq}s pregnant women are informed on healthy lifestyle in pregnancy. This hypothesis has been confirmed. More than 80 per cent of respondents answered correctly to nearly all the questions related to the healthy lifestyle in pregnancy. The average of correct answers is 88 per cent. The second hypothesis assumed that pregnant women obtain most information about healthy lifestyle from the internet. This hypothesis was refuted. 42 per cent of the respondents gain information about healthy lifestyle from the internet. The third hypothesis assumed that pregnant women adhere to the healthy lifestyle principles. This hypothesis was confirmed. 91 per cent of pregnant women adhere to the healthy lifestyle principles. The fourth hypothesis assumed that pregnant women take physical exercises in pregnancy. This hypothesis was confirmed too. 75 per cent of respondents go in for physical activities during pregnancy.
Woman's sexuality in pregnancy, during delivery and in puerperium.
HONZÍKOVÁ, Eliška
This bachelor thesis deals with female sexuality in the period of pregnancy, delivery and puerperium. However, it does not only focus on sexual activities in these cardinal periods of every woman ´s life. Female sexuality is directly related to the woman ´s psychic condition which has a fundamental effect on her. The theoretical part includes chapters explaining the notion of female sexuality and its brief history. The thesis further includes basic information about female physiology and an outline of the periods of pregnancy, delivery and puerperium with a focus on female psyche and sexuality. The purpose of this thesis was to find out about women ´s knowledge of hormonal changes in the periods of pregnancy, delivery and puerperium in relation to sexuality. Another objective was to find out what changes are women subject to in these periods and whether any complications may appear in this area. Further focus of interest was comparison of sexuality of women without professional healthcare education and midwives who had already delivered babies themselves. This theme was processed with the help of a qualitative research. The needed information was obtained through non-standardised interviews with open questions. The interviews were processed in the form of case studies. The research subjects included two groups of female respondents. The first group included women without professional healthcare education and the second consisted of five midwives. The research was used for evaluation of the following hypotheses: ``Women possess information about hormonal changes in pregnancy, during and after delivery in relation to sexuality``; ``The frequency of female sexual activities decreases in pregnancy``; ``Women change view of their life roles in the sense of continuous prevalence of the parental role over the partner role``; ``Delivery need not necessarily result in changed sexual appetite of women``; ``Women experience complications in sexuality after delivery in the case of trouble with injury during childbirth{\crqq}; ``There are no differences between women without professional healthcare education and professional midwives in sexuality in the periods of pregnancy, delivery and post-delivery``. The thesis might be beneficial not only for midwives, pregnant women or women after child delivery, but also for the male part of the population.
Know - how gravid women about after - terminal pregnancy
ŠIKOVÁ, Miroslava
The thesis on the topic of awareness of pregnant women about overdue pregnancy consists of two basic parts. In the theoretical part the thesis deals with first signs of pregnancy and how the pregnant woman can recognize them. How to calculate the due date and how long physiological pregnancy takes. Other topics mentioned are frequency, causes and risks of overdue pregnancy and ways of dealing with failed induction of labour. The aim of the research investigation was to determine whether pregnant women know the risks of overdue pregnancy, whether they know the length of pregnancy, whether they have knowledge of how to calculate the due date and whether they know the reasons leading to the induction of labour. Hypotheses were stated which were to confirm the knowledge of pregnant women about the risks of overdue pregnancy, women's knowledge about the length of pregnancy, women's knowledge about ways of calculating the due date and knowledge of the reasons to induce the labour. Quantitative research was chosen as methodology of the work, data collection was conducted using the questionnaire technique. The questionnaire was anonymous, the initial questions identified the respondents. Questions in the questionnaire were related to overdue pregnancy. The research was carried out in Strakonice Hospital and in gynecologists´ surgeries. 70 questionnaires had been distributed. The total set consisted of 60 (100%) respondents. The objectives of the thesis were met and the hypotheses were confirmed by the results of the research investigation. It was found out that pregnant women are well informed about the risks of overdue pregnancy and they have enough information about the whole issue. Women receive information from their doctor-gynaecologist, midwives and from the Internet when the Internet is not a valid resource for pregnant women. It would be beneficial to provide information about other natural methods of induction of labour. The best form of education of expecting mothers would be a focused interview during pre-birth classes or creating information brochures, which would be available in every gynecological surgery.
Communication with a prenatal individual and with child on first days after labour
PETROUŠOVÁ, Lucie
This bachelor work has been realised as a research work and consists of two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part deals with the description of antenatal period, the interaction between mother and child and psychologic antenatal findings where antenatal communication with an unborn child plays an important role. A cardinal part of the work depicts the role and psychosocial attitude of the midwives who take care of mother and unborn child. In addition, the importance of the first mother-child contact soon after delivery is highlighted. The practical part represents the research work. Two questionnaires were used to prove the initial hypotheses. Hypothesis 1: ``Close family members communicate with their unborn child during the pregnancy`` and hypothesis 2: ``Mother-child communication is enabled to start soon after the delivery`` have proved. Altogether 250 questionnaires were distributed, 140 of them to pregnant women and 110 to women after delivery. 229 questionnaires, 92 %, were completed and given back. However, the final set of correctly completed questionnaires, which could be surveyed, consisted of 126 (100 %) given back by pregnant women and 103 (100 %) by women after delivery.
Effect of intrauterine autoplasma application on mare fertility
ŠTĚRBOVÁ, Hana
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of intrauterine plasma infusion on conceiving rate in selected group of mares during the breeding seasons 2008 and 2009. The fresh sperm insemination was followed by the infusion of self-plasma and subsequently the successivity of the insemination was compared with the control group of mares. Next, there were observed following factors which could influence the effectiveness of conceiving: age of the mares, number of insemination doses, size and location of preovulating follicle, month of the year. There was also evaluated the difference between multiparous (with one and more births) and nulliparous mares. The statistical analyses were proceeded by the use of contingency tables and the one-factorial analysis of variance (ANOVA). Next, the regression and correlation analyses were used. All the statistical procedures were performed with the use of statistical software STATGRAPHICS Plus 5.0. The results showed that there were the same results in observing of both number of insemination doses and fertile heats evaluation. There was found no significant effect of plasma infusion on the conceiving rate. In the model with the effects of plasma infusion and the age of the mare there were found statistically significant differences. It means that the effect of plasma infusion on conceiving rate was confirmed in the mares of the age up to 14 years. The result of the following analysis is the non-significant difference in conceiving rate between the groups of multiparous mares with or without plasma infusion.
PHYSIOTHERAPY OF PREGNANCY AND PUERPERIUM
PITNEROVÁ, Alžběta
The bachelor thesis is focused on physiotherapy during the time of pregnancy and puerperium. Both pregnancy and birth have a significant influence on the expectant mother. During the nine months, woman undergoes a great amount of changes both from the physical and the mental side. This bachelor thesis deals foremost with changes that affect the physical side of the expectant mother. They include changes on genital organs, on cardiovascular, blood and respiratory system, gastrointestinal tract, skin and last but not least on the locomotory system. With exercise in gravidity, we try to influence these changes and, therefore, avoid any occurrence of eventual difficulties. Exercising during gravidity has not only a great importance to prevention but also to the preparation of an expectant mother to the delivery and for acceleration of return of the mother into the shape before conception. The expectant mother should be careful when choosing a suitable sport and she should always consult her attending gynaecologist. Recommended sports and methodologies include gravid yoga, pilates, belly dance, Moses method, exercise on a big ball, Alexander's technique, hydrokinesiotherapy and gynaecological gymnastics. The theoretical part includes a description of anatomy of genital organs and pelvis, creation of an individual, description of physical changes during pregnancy and puerperium and also characteristics and selection of individual suitable sport activities and methodologies. The goal of this bachelor thesis was to find such suitable physiotherapeutic procedures and methods, apply them to particular expectant mothers and verify their effects. For the practical part of research, the method of qualitative research and personal cases studies were used. Three pregnant women participated in the research. Therapy took place once per week for the period of several months. While having free conversation with the clients during the said period, I obtained the information I have incorporated into the individual casuistries. The therapy was completed by the final examination, which proved a positive effect of the exercise not only on the health conditions of expectant mothers, but also on their mental well-being, which was especially important for mothers.
Physioterapeutic impact on apparatus of movement during pregnancy and preparation to the labour
KOTRŠALOVÁ, Jana
This bachelor work was aimed at the effect of individual physiotherapy on apparatus of movement during pregnancy and preparation to the labour. The first objective of my research was to find out whether the women who underwent individual physiotherapy in their pregnancy, in addition to the above stated courses, suffered minor problems connected with the locomotive apparatus before and during the parturition than the women who did not undergo individual therapy. I also addressed parturition, particularly duration of the first delivery period and pains during the delivery. Both objectives of my research have been attained. The anamneses of the women were obtained, kinesiological analyses were made and for one of the women a short-term plan was elaborated according to which the therapy was undertaken; subsequently the final analysis of the obtained results was performed. Two hypotheses have followed from my research. According to my first hypothesis, individually controlled physiotherapy undertaken during pregnancy can positively influence the locomotive apparatus of every pregnant woman. The second hypothesis claims that individual physiotherapeutic care has no significant effect on the course of the parturition.

Overweight and obesity are not only a beauty problem but there are much more serious complications that can shorter the lifetime. Women with overweigh or obesity should try to reduce their weight. The good solution is a receiving a balanced diet with a reasonable energy value and regular movement activities. This thesis is based on the creation of three-month yoga programme for women after childbirth. These women managed to reduce the weight of three kilograms on average. This programme also had a good impact on all health of these women.
INFECTION AS A RISK FACTOR DURING PREGNANCY
HRUBEŠOVÁ, Martina
The thesis Infection as a risk factor during pregnancy is divided into two parts {--} theoretical and practical {--} and has a character of a research study. The theoretical part deals with aspects of infections during pregnancy. The main attention is paid to the questions of pregnant women colonized with group B Streptococci (GBS, Streptococcus agalactiae) which may cause a large scale of infectious diseases in newborns, including the life threatening sepsis. This part of the thesis is divided into seven chapters. They provide brief information on the etiological agent, risk factors, clinical picture of the disease, current possibilities of the disease diagnostics. The present day system of the optimal procedure of screening to identify women colonized with GBS and the procedure of the intrapartal antibiotic prophylaxis are also mentioned in the theoretical part. The objective of the practical part is to find the percentage of newborn infants delivered by mothers colonized with GBS who are also colonized with GBS despite their mothers having been treated by the intrapart antibiotic prophylaxis. The hypothesis I assumes that the intrapart antibiotic prophylaxis was administered to women colonized with GBS more than 4 hours before delivery. The hypothesis II presumes that newborns of GBS positive mothers who had been administered the antibiotic prophylaxis at least 4 hours before delivery were not colonized with GBS. The quantitative research was used to verify or reject the hypotheses. It was carried out by the retrospective analysis of medical records of women who gave birth between 1 June 2006 and 8 August 2007 at the maternity hospital in České Budejovice and had been colonized with GBS. The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the antibiotic prophylaxis carried out in the maternity hospital in České Budejovice and to introduce the conclusions into practice and training.
Low informatik about the process of child bearing
PISCHEKOVÁ, Markéta
The bachelor thesis describes current problematics of information provided to the first-time-paras on the childbirth course. The birth today is an issue very much promoted in the media, being particularly interesting for the pregnant women as well as for the whole society. Paras can find the new findings in magazines concentrating on this topic, in books designed directly for the pregnant women or, for example, in the antenatal courses lead by midwives. The most accessible source of information of today is Internet, where the expectant mothers can find all knowledge, starting with theoretical one and ending up with consultations of experts or chat with other paras. Thanks to the high level of general public awareness on the childbirth course, alternative ways of childbirth become more common. From the analysis of data it ensued that state of first-time-paras{\crq} awareness and their interest to get new information grows up disregarding the fact, if they are before or after the childbirth. It is the training institutions for medical staff in gynaecology and midwifery that has the significant influence on this result. The knowledge got here can be used in the areas of gynaecology and midwifery, either in primary care of obstetricians, or in midwifery institutions, as well as during training of students
