Means for automatic administration of antidotes (autoinjectors)against nerve agents
JONÁŠ, Jindřich
This thesis is dedicated to the topic of the nerve agents with special emphasis on antidotal treatment utilizing application of the auto-injectors. Two methods were used ? literature research and quantitative research. Since this topic covers plenty of information as regards chemical warfare agents and in particular nerve agents these issues were addressed in the theoretical part of the thesis. In the chapter on current status based on literature resources a summary of evolution of the auto-injector is presented; from firsts notes until the situation today. Practical part of the thesis is concentrated on University of Southern Bohemia in ČeskéBudějovice, Faculty of Health and Social Studies students' knowledge in the area of nerve agents. The results of the research were acquired by the method of quantitative research ? questionnaires with 18 questions. With respect to each of the questions a selection of the 2 to 7 answers was offered to the students, whereas in every case only 1 answer was correct. The results were analyzed both with reference to each of the questions and with reference to each of the students. By this method it has been discovered that the respondents have a good knowledge in the area of nerve agents. Furthermore, the practical part of the thesis included an experiment concerning speed with which the respondents were able to apply antidotum with a training auto-injector by themselves with no prior instructions in comparison to how quickly they were able to do the same after being instructed. By this method were tested the quality of the instructions provided to the auto-injectors and its ergonomic qualities (intuitiveness of its application). Recorded times were statistically analyzed and the results, although materially different, were assessed as satisfactory.
Acute myocardial infarction in pre-hospitalization urgent care - direct cooperation with a cardiology center
JONÁŠ, Jindřich
Acute myocardial infarction in pre-hospitalization urgent care {--} direct cooperation with a cardiology center The evaluation of urgency of the condition of a patient with cardiac disease symptoms, identified as chest pain or acute coronary syndrome, used to be in the pre-hospitalization urgent care always in the domain of the emergency service physician. However, with the progress of diagnostic techniques the working diagnosis can be also made by a trained paramedic, as long as he/she is unable to get a physician to the place of the intervention. A great advantage in this respect is the possibility of telemetric transmission of electrocardiographic records to the cardiology center where the curve is evaluated by a cardiologist and then the optimized method can be agreed with the specialist by phone so that the concerned patient can be transported into a hospital and given specialized treatment. The objective of the thesis was to analyze the working procedure of a paramedic with a patient who suffered an acute myocardial infarction and to evaluate specific features of communication and cooperation with the cardiology center by means of data transmission. The bachelor thesis is divided into two parts. The first part is theoretical and it describes the issues of pre-hospitalization urgent care of a patient with an acute myocardial infarction and the provision of the care. The second, practical part of the thesis, consists of a qualitative research. The employed technique for data collection was a structured interview. Based on an analysis of the acquired data we set the following hypotheses: Hypothesis 1: Paramedics are familiar with the procedure for pre-hospitalization urgent care of a patient with an acute myocardial infarction. Hypothesis 2: Teams sent to interventions with chest pain indication are primarily emergency medical service teams.
