Nutrition and it`s specificaton within sport and leisture time exercising activities.
SEKEROVÁ, Blanka
Abstract: The subject matter of my final papers is Nutrition and it`s ecification within sport and leisure time exercising activities. I put my mind to the most important spheres of nutrition that should take interest of portsmen and other people doing any kind of sport in their leisure time. The attention of Nutirition Therapy is mainly paid to medical nutrition. Health precaution seems to be only a marginal subject of Nutrition Therapy. I have tried to study all the available literature related to Sport Nutrition to review the most important facts to point out. In the latter part of my thesis, I described and studied nutriton habits of two sportsmen. One of them does the strenght sport, the other one does the power-persistence sport. Both were examined by a sport physician. According to the results of the physical examination they had undergone. The sportsmen were writing down all they ate in a retrospective way for three weeks, during the time of preconditioning before a contest. They were also writing down all the exercise activities they were doing those days. After the three weeks, I evaluated their records and compared them with general nutrition recommendation for sporsmen helping them to sustain and enhance their health.

Risks concerning malnutrition and obesity in the nursing process
HORČIČKOVÁ, Marie
The care for nutrition of patients is given more attention these days than before. Patients with malnutrition and obesity represent a huge nursing problem in internal and surgical fields. In this thesis we focused on nursing process in clients with malnutrition and obesity. The research was quantitative, for the data collection the anonymous questionnaires addressed to nurses were used. It was carried out in internal and surgical departments and departments of follow-up care in hospitals in Písek and Tábor. 120 questionnaires were distributed, in each hospital 60, to particular departments 20. 95 (100 %) questionnaires were used for the research. In the thesis seven objectives were stated. The objectives were focused on carrying out the nursing process in clients with malnutrition and obesity, the most frequent nursing problems in these patients and the awareness of nursing staff in the problems of malnutrition and obesity. Seven hypotheses linked to the objectives were stated. The research showed that nurses meet the clients with malnutrition and obesity in all mentioned departments. Most nurses consider the care for these patients very demanding. It is pleasant that the part of nursing documentation is nutritional screening, which is carried out during an admission of each client. Further the research showed that for these clients no valid nursing standard, which would improve nursing process, has been carried out yet. In clients with malnutrition the most frequent nursing problems are decubital ulcers and in clients with obesity sore spots. Information on the problems of malnutrition and obesity is gained at professional seminars and conferences. Nursing process in patients with malnutrition or obesity is demanding and it is necessary to have a sensitive and considerate approach. The results of the thesis will be used to make nursing staff acquainted with these problems.

Parenteral nutrition in nursing care
KIŠŠOVÁ, Katarína
Parenteral nutrition is a method whereby all necessary nutritional elements are supplied to patients most often directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive tract. Parenteral nutrition, though, represent a non-physiological route for the supply of all essential elements. It is a method that benefits patients and improves their nutritional status at a time when they are unable to use their digestive tract. Nonetheless, parenteral nutrition is not the best option for patients. It involves a number of disadvantages and complications. The nurse plays a fundamental role in patient nutrition. She should thus have the necessary knowledge regarding patient nutrition. She should keep in mind that by administering parenteral nutrition she is ensuring that the patient receives an adequate caloric and nutritional intake at a time when he/she cannot use his/her digestive tract. Quantitative research with the aid of questionnaires was used to expound the bachelor degree work entitled ``Parenteral nutrition in nursing care{\crq}q. The anonymous standardized questionnaire technique was used to collect data. The questionnaires were distributed to nurses working in standard and intensive care wards in the Czech and Slovak Republics. Two goals were set. The first was to determine the degree of adherence to all the principles of preparation and administration by nurses in the Czech and Slovak Republics. The second goal was to chart the issue of parenteral nutrition in nursing care in the Czech and Slovak Republics. Five hypotheses were thus set out on the basis of these two goals, which were both met. Of these, four hypotheses were confirmed and one was disproved. The first hypothesis assessed whether nurses in the Czech Republic have greater experience with the administration of parenteral nutrition compared to nurses in the Slovak Republic. Based on the results of the questionnaire-based investigation, this hypothesis was confirmed. The second hypothesis assessed whether the nurse knows how to prepare all-in-one parenteral nutrition. Although the results of the questionnaire-based investigation were not always satisfactory, this hypothesis was confirmed. Most nurses do know how to prepare all-in-one parenteral nutrition. The third hypothesis assessed whether nurses adhere to all the principles of parenteral nutrition administration. Despite certain errors in the principles of parenteral nutrition administration, this hypothesis was confirmed. The fourth hypothesis assessed whether nurses prefer administering parenteral nutrition to administering enteral nutrition. This fourth hypothesis was also confirmed on the basis of the investigation results. The fifth hypothesis - ´a greater number of nurses appreciates the positive rather than the negative aspects when administering parenteral nutrition´ - was not confirmed. Processing of the questionnaires showed that nurses are more aware of the negative rather than the positive aspects when administering parenteral nutrition. Although most nurses often do not know what is a positive and what is a negative aspects when administering parenteral nutrition to patients. The Head Nurse of Motol Teaching Hospital has requested that we provide her with the research results. These results will also be sent to the head nurses of two teaching hospitals in the Slovak Republic. It will be possible to use the results of this research to further the quality of nursing care.

Nutrition Guidance for Colostomy Patients in South Bohemian Hospitals of Písek, České Budějovice and Tábor Before They Are Discharged Home.
ŠÍMOVÁ, Lucie
There are about 10 -11 thousand colostomy patients in the Czech Republic nowadays. As the number of these patients goes up a system of complex nurse treatment should be prepared. Applying a colostomy bag means a deep inroad into patients´ personal, working and social lives. A stoma nurse help the patients to overcome new problems and difficulties. She also guides them in the care of stoma itself as well as of the diet. A specific nutrition is necessary to be followed as it can improve patients´ lives a lot. The aim of this work is to find out how much colostomy patients and nurses know about nutrition and drinking regime before patients are discharged home and if nurses in South Bohemian hospitals inform the patients. There were two hypotheses stated at the beginning. H1: Colostomy patients have enough information about nutrition and drinking regime before they are discharged. H2: Nurses inform patients about nutrition and drinking regime. To collect all necessary data, the method of questioning was used. Forty patients and sixty nurses in surgical wards were asked to fill in the questionnaires. The rate of return in all hospitals mentioned above was 100%. The patient questionnaires consisted of twenty questions and the nurse questionnaires of eighteen. Both hypotheses were proved, colostomy patients are informed about nutrition principles and nurses give them further information. The findings of the work will be offered to surgical ward sisters of the hospitals where the survey was done. They could be used for presenting at professional seminars for stoma and other surgical nurses who work with colostomy patients.

THE MOST WELL - KNOWN WORED CUSINES - SPECIFICS FAST-FOOD, INFLUENCE ON HEALTH AND THEIR POPULARITY AMONG STUDENTS OF SOUTHBOHEMIAN UNIVERSITY
TESAŘOVÁ, Petra
The bachelor{\crq}s thesis deals with a very relevant topic in today{\crq}s times {--} nutrition. Whereas in some parts of the world there is deprivation and deficiency in this area, the problem in developed countries tends to be a surplus and the subsequent threats linked to a bad diet. Today, thanks to globalization, we more and more frequently come across the most diverse exotic meals and we are much more susceptible to trends connected to the changing lifestyle and growing number of fast food restaurants. The theoretical part of the thesis summarizes basic information about nutrition and its influence on the health of human beings, and reminds of the main components of nutrition, their function and differing impacts on the organism. Subsequently, also the influence of nutrition on the health of human beings is described in more detail, as nutrition can be labeled as one of the highest risk factors in many illnesses. These illnesses, known as civilizational diseases, threaten a constantly growing part of the population, even though it is possible to fight them successfully, especially with prevention. Another goal of the theoretical part of the thesis is to show the differences among individual foreign cuisines, remind of their traditional dishes and most frequently used ingredients. The subsequent research is also focused in this direction and its results are presented in the empirical part of the thesis. The research part, executed via a questionnaire, is dedicated to the level of informedness of the respondents on the influence of specific foods on human health and the subsequent utilization of this information in practice. The research results document that although the majority of the respondents are informed about the negative influences of bad nutrition, they do not use this information too much in their decision making. Another goal of the thesis was the mapping of the situation in the area of eating and eating habits and the determination of the popularity and preferences of various international cuisines among students. The aggregate results prove that international cuisines are no longer completely taboo, and that the majority of the students orient themselves in this topic and visit foreign restaurants. In spite of that, traditional Czech cuisine, which is without a doubt the closest one to us, remains as the most popular.

Healthy lifestyle of the individual - the way to the health of population
KUČEROVÁ, Eva
The bachelor thesis summarizes the basic information about healthy lifestyle and it deals with this issue. It presents categories regarding healthy lifestyle and it presents the current scientific findings and recommendations in the area. The theoretical part is aimed at areas of lifestyle. It deals with the factors affecting human health and their division with regards to their importance. It aims particularly at the four main elements, which include: nutrition, smoking, stress, alcohol drugs abuse. I selected the factors as they related to human decisions the most and that is why they are more dependent on human will. First of all I am dealing with nutrition, particularly its optimum composition and effect on health. I further focus on stress and its mental and physical impacts on people. At the end of the theoretical part I am dealing with the question what the impact of smoking and alcohol and drugs abuse is on the human body. In the practical part, the research results are presented, focused on the issue above. The research part of the thesis realized in form of a questionnaire deals with nutrition, smoking, physical activity and health care in general in people working in the South-Bohemian Region. During the research I found out that women are more interested in their lifestyle than men, but they rather invest time while men mostly invest money. The research further documents that in people with elementary education there is higher percentage of smokers than in people with higher education. In the area of nutrition I focused on the difference between nutritional habits of men and women. I found out that women's diet is usually healthier that that of men, mainly because they are more interested in the nutrition quality, compared to men who do not care for the nutrition quality much. Therefore my thesis shows how people working in the South-Bohemian Region care fore their health and how they are interested in their lifestyle.

Possibilities of primary prevention in children of the early school age in relation to problems of food intake disorders
FITTLOVÁ, Michala
Food-intake disorders belong to serious health problems and their prevalence is increasing all the time. They represent serious problem in children especially because they are not expected at this age. Combating this disease is difficult. The easiest way is to prevent these food-intake disorders (Anorexia nervosa, Bulimia nervosa) by targeted primary prevention both in basic schools and in families. Theoretical part of my thesis is aimed at definition of junior school age. Next part is dedicated to the characteristics of food-intake disorders and prevention in children and youth. The last part concerns correct children´ s nutrition. The research is divided into two parts. For quantitative research the technique of e-mail questioning was used. Questions were established for basic schools in South Bohemia region. For qualitative research was used half-guided dialogue with parents of junior school age children. First aim was to chart the possibilities of primary prevention within the frame of food-intake disorders in the South Bohemia region in chosen basic schools. Further aim was to find out the parents´ opinions on problems of food-intake disorders. Both aims were fulfilled. Hypothesis I had to document that within basic schools the targeted primary prevention in junior school age children in problems of food-intake disorders is not ensured. Hypothesis II should confirm that the offer of comprehensive education for pedagogues in problems of food-intake disorders is missing. Both hypotheses were confirmed as well. From qualitative research (half -standardized dialogue) two hypotheses emerged. Hypothesis III: It is necessary to increase the informedness in sphere of food-intake disorders. Hypothesis IV: Healthy nutrition is only one of important aspects of prevention. I chose the topic for my thesis (Possibilities of primary prevention in junior school age children in relation to problems of food-intake disorders) because it is up-to-date subject and after all it started to be discussed in public. I am interested in possibilities of primary prevention, whether they exist and are used.
