Contributionof SPECT againstwhole body bone scintigraphy
HOLUBOVÁ, Karolína
This bachelor thesis compares two of the main examination methods in nuclear medicine, which are SPECT and the whole body scintigraphy of the skeleton. At the whole body scintigraphy of the skeleton, some structures may overlap at different depths and thus they are not detectable. Whereas with SPECT these structures are displayed separately, their anatomical orientation is refined and the contrast of the focuses is increased. Experience shows, that number of pathological focuses, which are very well recognisable in the skeleton on the SPECT, may not be detected whatsoever or are poorly anatomically defined on the scintigraphic planar image. One research question is asked in this work: "In what percentage did SPECT brings new findings compared to the whole-body skeletal scintigraphy?" The given goal was fulfilled and the reasearch question was answerd. Images of anonymous patients with SPECT examination and whole-body scintigraphy of skeleton are used for the research, to compare the findings from the department of nuclear medicine at the hospital of České Budějovice.

Cooperation with the Families of Users in G-centrum Tábor
HOLUBOVÁ, Karolína
The Cooperation with Families of the Clients in the G- Centre Tábor For my bachelor thesis I have chosen the topic ?The Cooperation with Families of the Clients in the G-Centre Tábor?. The main aim of my thesis is to find out if the family is not less interested in the care for the senior after he or she had been taken into the care of an institution - particularly The G-Centre Tábor ? Old People´s Home,c.o. It has been common in the 21st century to take care for our older relatives and for the older generation in our country in general. The old age does not have to be only a phrase which announces impotence, last years of the life or illness. However not all seniors can afford to stay at home till the end of their lives. The most frequent reasons for this are their health problems that often accumulate in the old age and the risk of their occurrence is higher. That is often why the family and the senior himself have to choose the way of the institutional care. The theoretical part has been aimed to the senior, his or her family and the institutional care. In the first part I wanted to point out what the old age looks like, what it brings and what is the way the seniors are able to cope with the situations brought by the old age. In the next part I have aimed at the family, because it undoubtedly plays an important role in the senior´s life. I have focused onthe changes of the family from the past to the present. I also wanted to highlight the important and irreplaceable role of the senior in the family, the life together with the senior and possible barriers and problems in the communication. In the last part I have aimed to the institutional care ? what it is, what social service it can offer, what the admission of the senior to the institutional care looks like and what are the rights and obligations of the staff and the clients who live there. I have also aimed to the social worker, his or her work filling and job level in the old people´s home. For the practical part I have chosen qualitative research with using of the method of semi-controlled dialogue.The research was realized in the G-Centre Tábor ? Old People´s Home, c.o. and 11 respondents took part in it. There were addresses five clients of G-Centre in the age from 72 to 85 years, four women and one man, and also their family members in the age from 22 to 52 years. All the family members were women, four daughters and one granddaughter. The research was completed by the interview with a social worker from the G-Centre. She has been working there at the position of the university educated social worker for 12 years. The aim of the thesis is to find out if and in what way the families are included in the care for the clients of the G-Centre Tábor. The main research issue stated to the achievement of the aim was the following: Is the family engaged in the care for the clients of G-Centre Tábor ? Old People´s Home, c.o.? And three more additional questions were: In what way is the family engaged in the care for the clients of G-Centre Tábor, Old People´s Home, c.o.? What opportunities do The G-Centre Tábor ? Old People´s Home, c.o. offer to engage the family in the care for the clients? And the last partial question was: Do the families of the clients know the opportunities to engage themselves in the care?
