Care of premature newborns in former times and today
Vaňková, Barbora Viktorie ; Sedlářová, Petra (advisor) ; Nováková, Jana (referee)
The thesis deals with the topic of the development of care for the premature newborn over the ages, focusing on individual areas of care. From publications and articles we can read about marked differences in the care of the newborn if we want to compare history and today. In ancient times, only mothers who gave birth to their children cared for them. There were no professionals or institutions in which such care could be concentrated. But society has always tried to save life, albeit perhaps in the most primitive way. Already during the 18th-19th centuries, the first organized services for the care of pregnant women and their children began to be provided. From the foundling hospitals, we move over time to the establishment of maternity wards and hospital wards for paediatric patients. We are passing through a period when the care of the premature newborn was only peripherally touched upon by society, and often shunned, until the first research on the subject began to be carried out and the overall level of care improved and methods became more sophisticated. During the study of the literature sources, developments were observed especially in the areas of maintaining the temperature environment, especially incubators, and the development of the kangaroo method, which is coming to the fore nowadays...

Bidšovská, Barbora ; Tomášková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Němcová, Alžběta (referee)
The bachelor thesis "Awareness of Newborn Care among Women " is divided into theoretical and practical parts. The theoretical part deals with four major topics. The first topic describes the physiological development of the newborn and the adaptation of the different organ systems to the extrauterine environment. The second deals with neonatal hygiene and the importance of vernix in the first days of life. Other topics include newborn sleep and comfort. The practical part focuses on the awareness of women in newborn care, using a quantitative questionnaire survey. The questionnaire was distributed online and the responses, obtained from it, were tabulated into graphs and tables. It is focused on the subjective perception of awareness in newborn care and explores problematic areas. The survey found that the majority of women prepare for newborn care before childbirth, and a positive finding is that women are well-informed about newborn care both from the maternity ward and their paediatrician. However, the most common source of information is the internet. Based on the results, it would be useful to improve breastfeeding education. Assistance with newborn care in the first days after birth should also be provided to women with multiple pregnancies who may not remember everything from previous...

Antenatal preparation in České Budějovice region
ŠTĚCHOVÁ, Gabriela
This bachelor thesis deals with the importance of antenatal preparation and the use of information obtained at these courses. The first aim of the work was to map the knowledge of women from antenatal preparation and their use. The second goal was to find out the opinions of midwifes on the usefulness of antenatal preparation. The bachelor thesis is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part contains basic information about antenatal preparation in general. Furthermore, the theoretical part is divided into topics of theoretical and practical nature, with which women can meet in the courses of antenatal preparation. Topics as pregnancy, lifestyle in pregnancy, prenatal care, selection of maternity hospital, birth plan, when to go to maternity hospital and what to bring there, escort to childbirth, birth process itself, first treatment of newborn and postpartum period are described there. Practical topics include for example breathing and pushing techniques during childbirth, puerperium exercises, breastfeeding and newborn care. The practical part of the thesis was carried out by means of qualitative research, in the form of semi-structured interviews. The research group consisted of 10 women who attended a course of antenatal preparation in the České Budějovice region and 7 midwives working at the Gynecology and Obstetrics Department at České Budějovice Hospital, a.s. The interviews with the respondents were recorded on dictaphone with their consent, then literally rewritten and analyzed. In order to evaluate the data with women who have completed pre-natal courses, 6 categories that include also10 sub-categories were set. Four categories were created for data evaluation with midwives. Based on the above-mentioned goals, three research questions were identified for the research part. The first research question explored what the knowledge of women from antenatal preparation is. Research has shown that most informants were satisfied with the amount of information they received on the course. One of the respondents stated that instead of theoretical information on the course, she would rather appreciate the practical knowledge. On the other hand, another respondent mentioned that there was a lot of information and a small amount of time to obtain the information. The second research question dealt with the use of information obtained at pre-natal courses. Research has shown that most respondents used the correct breathing technique that they have learned in courses, during their delivery. The interviews also revealed that the respondents used other information gathered on the course, such as when to go to maternity hospital, what to pack to the maternity ward, how to distinguish pregnancy cramps from the contractions or the pushing technique. The third research question dealt with the opinions of midwives on antenatal preparation courses. All midwives interviewed have a positive attitude to prenatal preparation courses. But they stated that there is no significant difference between the woman who attended the course and the woman who did not attend any course. However, midwives are convinced that it is certainly worthwhile to attend antenatal courses, especially for primiparas. The knowledge acquired during processing of this bachelor thesis can help midwives who lead antenatal preparation courses, for example to improve their leadership. The output of the bachelor thesis is a leaflet in which there is a comprehensive list of prenatal courses, which are offered in České Budějovice and a more detailed description of individual courses.

The transportation of the newborn is one of the performances, which involves high risks. The main effort is to transport the at risk newborn to the center, ?in utero? (in utero).
