Motherhood seen throw the eyes of three generations of women
Havránková, Tereza ; Levínská, Markéta (advisor) ; Presslerová, Pavla (referee)
The purpose of this thesis is to make a plot of generations changes in motherhood. The aim of the theoretical part is to introduce possible views on motherhood. It gives us a look at materhood like a social construct and a biological instinct. This part is also dealing with their reciprocal combinations. Another parts of this section is to introduce motherhood like a social role and motherhood like a sense of identity. The aim of the practical part is to collect information from mothers of three generations about their own experiences with motherhood. The interview was according to The Grounded Theory. The particular aims of this section are to discover important areas of motherhood for women of all generations, find out the generation changes in this areas and evaluate the impact of this changes on the final image of motherhood. The generation changes and important areas of motherhood are compared and discussed with theoretical findings from the first part. The conclusion of this work thesis is focused on importance of these generation changes on the final image of motherhood.

Porovnání obtížnosti porodů u různých plemen skotu ve vybraném chovu
Kozlová, Eliška
This bachelor thesis examines the issue of difficult calving depending on breed affiliation and utility type. This work summarizes three basic breeds of different utility types that are bred in the Czech Republic. Furthermore, the work deals with the description of estrous cycle, methods of insemination, the period of gestation and the subsequent parturition. During parturition, emphasis is mainly placed on its progress. Therefore, the work also deals with internal and external factors. These factors aren’t always controllable, but some of them can be influenced by keeper or directly by breeding. Early detection of dead fetus is also important for calving. Whether the calving is assisted and whether any assistance is performed in an appropriate way has a relatively large influence on the course of calving itself. Depending on the extend to which assistance was required, the overall course of the birth is also evaluated. In this work was evaluated the calving process in Czech Fleckvieh and Charolais breeding. Both breeds were kept in the company ZEAS Lysice a.s., which is located in the South Moravian region. The results of the calving process were compared according to breed, year of calving and whether they were first-calf or older cows. The analysis of the data showed a significantly high incidence of the desired calving process in the Charolais breed, up to 99,28 %. Czech Fleckvieh showed a higher incidence of unwanted calving, which was 1,72 %. It also has been proven that older cows calving process was better than heifers. In the analysis of the year of calving, its influence on the course of calving wasn’t proven.

Neuroactive steroids in human physiology and pathophysiology
Kubátová, Jana ; Hill, Martin (advisor) ; Fanta, Michal (referee)
The present diploma thesis is focused on the evaluation of steroid metabolome in body fluids in human pregnancy and parturition and also concentrates on the estimation of steroids in men with epilepsy (MWE) regarding the influence of epilepsy and its treatment with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). The results obtained eventuate to the following conclusions: 1. They support the proposition about the key importance of corticoliberin for the timing of human parturition via stimulation of the steroidogenesis in the fetal zone of the fetal adrenal (FZ). Changes in steroid levels, however, much better predict the timing of parturition than the variation in corticoliberin. 2. The distribution of isoforms of placental oxidoreductases determines the excess of oxidized forms of the sex steroids and NAS in the fetus and the excess of their reduced forms in mother. This mechanism fundamentally affects the steroid bioactivity. The results indicate the role of NAS in pregnancy sustaining, their analgesic effect around parturition and their role in the pathophysiology of postpartum blues.

Caesarian Section on Demand - Yes or No
Skřivanová, Eva ; Kulhavá, Miluše (advisor) ; Hrdličková, Renáta (referee)
The topic of this bachelor thesis is "Caesarean section on demand". The thesis deals with women's interest in undergoing the surgery at their own request and with the reasons behind their choice. It consists of a theoretical and an empirical part. The theoretical part of the thesis focuses on the history of obstetrics, on Caesarean section, indications for a Caesarean section, possible methods, anesthesia, potential complications and spontaneous delivery. The empirical part is based on quantitative research. By means of a questionnaire, women have been asked whether they are interested in undergoing Caesarean section at their own request and what are the reasons behind their choice. The empirical part further examines whether women are interested in choosing their preferred type of anesthesia and what this type is. The total number of respondents who participated in the survey was 82; they had been chosen randomly. The survey was conducted in January 2014. Its results have shown that only 37,80% of respondents are interested in Caesarean section at their own request. The most frequent reasons for this choice are their concern for the child's health, fear of pain and previous bad birth experience. 30 respondents out of the 31 interested in Ceasarean section on demand are interested in choosing their...

Effect of epidural analgesia on duration of the first and second stages of labour.
Kuklová, Dagmar ; Pařízek, Antonín (advisor) ; Šimják, Patrik (referee)
Effect of Epidural Analgesia on Duration of the First and Second Stages of Labour Abstract: This bachelor's thesis deals with the topic of epidural analgesia. Nowadays, epidural analgesia is considered to be the most effective method of relieving labour pain. The thesis is both theoretical and practical. The aim of the theoretical part is to summarize knowledge about labour pain and the methods of relieving it. The thesis offers a comprehensive review of both non-pharmacological and pharmacological techniques. The method of epidural analgesia is described in more detail. The thesis describes the indications and contraindications of administering epidural analgesia. It also studies it's impact on the course of labour. The practical part of this thesis consists of results of a prospective study concerning epidural analgesia. A group of women with administered epidural analgesia during labour were compared to a group of women without administration of epidural analgesia. Then it was looked at whether this method of analgesia has any effect on the length of the first and second stages of labour. It was ascertained by statistical methods that epidural analgesia has no effect on the duration of the first and second stages of labour. Keywords: Epidural Analgesia, Labour, Childbirth, Delivery, Parturition, First...

Vliv vybraných faktorů na průběh porodů a výskyt poporodních poruch u dojného skotu
ČERNÁ, Radka
The bachelor´s thesis aims at calving issues. Data for this study were collected through the monitoring of a dairy herd conducted from June 2014 to April 2015. The delivery course of breeding dairy cows was monitored including occurrence of postnatal complications, the care of a breeding-cow and evaluation of occurrence of health malfunction during the peripartum period in relation to the Body condition scoring of dairy cows and to the length of a non lactating period. Data suggests that breeding-cows have very good conditions during the non lactating period. Cows have Getting Enough feed, the option motion and grazing. Breeding-cows are most frequently in their optimal form (3-3,5). Course of labor was most often classified at level 1, as an easy birth. Disfunction of postnatal period was rare on the farm during the period of monitoring. A retained placenta was the most frequent disfunction.

Experience of expecting mothers with spinal analgesia
VRHELOVÁ, Jitka
Obstetric analgesia has lately become a modern supplement during physiological birth as well as during births with increased risk. Spinal analgesia together with epidural analgesia represent important methods in obstetric analgesia and anesthesia during delivery. The objective and the core of my thesis is to make a survey of expecting mothers´ experience with spinal analgesia which is a less used method of obstetric analgesia than for example the epidural method. But because this method is entirely equivalent to the epidural method, it is advisable to get familiar with its adverse and positive aspects and especially with the expecting mothers´ response to this method. In the thesis I used combination of quantitative and qualitative research, with six objectives, six hypotheses and two research questions. Methods of collecting data were questionnaires and interviews. The research database consisted of women after vaginal as well as operative deliveries who had used spinal analgesia or anesthesia during delivery. Objective 1 {--} to find out the overall awareness of women about methods of obstetric analgesia was fulfilled and hypothesis 1 {--} women do not have enough information about methods of obstetric analgesia was confirmed. Objective 2 {--} to find out whether the spinal analgesia method brings expected comfort of painless birth to expecting mothers was fulfilled. Hypothesis 2 {--} spinal analgesia method brings expected comfort of painless birth to expecting mothers was confirmed as well. Objective 3 {--} to find out whether spinal analgesia has a positive effect on the course of delivery was fulfilled. Hypothesis 3 which stated that spinal analgesia method has a positive effect on course of delivery was confirmed as well. Objective 4 to find out how the spinal analgesia method influences condition of fetus during delivery was fulfilled. Hypothesis 4 {--} spinal analgesia method has a positive influence on condition of faetus during delivery was confirmed. Objective 5 was to find out side effects of spinal analgesia during delivery as well as in confinement. The objective was fulfilled and the hypothesis was confirmed as well. Objective 6 to compare postoperative condition of mothers after Caesarean section in spinal analgesia and total anesthesia was fulfilled. The hypothesis stated to objective 6 was also confirmed . Two hypotheses can be stated from the results of qualitative research which comprised two research questions. The first hypothesis claims that spinal analgesia has a positive effect on physical condition of expecting mothers during delivery. The second hypothesis claims that spinal analgesia has a positive effect on mental condition of expecting mothers. The findings from the field of obstetric analgesia and research results can be used in the nursing process not only in delivery rooms and obstetric wards but also in primary care where the pregnant woman gets into the very first contact with medical staff.
