Tisová, Markéta ; Mellanová, Alena (advisor) ; Marková, Eva (referee)
This theoretical and empirical work addresses experience with anxiety and fear during pregnancy of primiparae. In the theoretical part the pregnancy is defined. Physical, psychical and social changes are described as well as adjustment of women to pregnancy. Further on there are general characteristics of the concept of anxiety and fear with their demonstrations and results. In the next part there is the description of anxiety and fear in pregnancy, their reasons, possible demonstrations and results of anxiety and fear in pregnancy. The research project of my graduation work was focused at the detection of how far the primiparae experience fear and anxiety during pregnancy and what reasons and cause are indicated. We tried to find out if there are any correlations between fear and anxiety in pregnant women and if there is any possibility to estimate in advance which group of women would experience fear and anxiety more. We also tried to find out what helps the pregnant women to get rid of these fears and anxiety or how can these feelings be reduced and if there is any possibility to prevent these feelings. Next we wanted to know how the primiparae get the information about pregnancy and which information is considered most appropriate.

Dyspnoea
Němečková, Helena ; Chloubová, Helena (advisor) ; Marková, Eva (referee)
The theoretical part of the diploma work has been influenced by the literature available, I describe briefly the physiology and pathology of breathing, the characteristics and divisions of dyspnoea, the feelings of those suffering from acute or chronic dyspnoea, nursing diagnosis, nurse evaluation, therapy and at the end some recommendation to improve the life quality of the patients suffering from dyspnoea. The research aim was to find out how the patients perceive breathlessness, how it affects their lives, what measures they take to influence or reduce it and what factors influence their breathing. I came into conclusion that the 27 asked patients/clients mainly feel the lack of air and fear. Chronic dyspnoea is often accompanied by the feeling of powerlessness. Surprisingly, dyspnoea hasn't been the cause of sleep disorder although it often is the reason for effort reduction and it worsens the life quality of the patients. In spite of the fact almost one half of the patients hasn't been forced to change the regime. The influence of the physical activities proved to be unambiguous. In general, dyspnoea is accompanied by unpleasant feelings which depend on the time, it can impair sleep, it changes the life quality forcing the person to reduce physical activity and in acute case to have total physical rest.

In my thesis I dealt with the problems of AIDS in the Czech Republic bearing in mind the need of the society to inform young people effectively about AIDS and at the same time to influence their attitudes, skills and behaviour. The aim of my work was to map all the alternative teaching methods in AIDS prevention that would be suitable for pupils of the 9th grade of the Nine-Year-Basic School and for pupils of the 1st and 2nd year in High Schools. In the theoretical part of my paper I have described, with the help of literary sources, the AIDS disease, sex education, activation methods in sex education, the project "Playing Games against AIDS", a discussion with a HIV positive person and meetings with young members of the Czech Red Cross. In the practical part of my paper I have tried to find out, by means of a questionnaire, what do 125 secondary school pupils know about AIDS and what are their attitudes towards this disease. The results have shown that the theoretical knowledge of the pupils about HIV/AIDS is not satisfactory and that their attitudes, skills and behaviour have been influenced only slightly. The results of the questionnaire have underlined the important role of teachers in the prevention of AIDS and shown that alternative teaching methods are not being used sufficiently. Finally I have...
