Comparison of the activities of the emergency services and military medics Czech Republic
SEDLÁKOVÁ, Aneta
This thesis is focused on the most common injuries that are attended by health care armies workers in the Czech Republic, and also the most common traumas that are attended by ground ambulance. I would like to divide my thesis into two parts. The first part focuses on general information on the structure and training of health professionals AČR and ground ambulance services, but especially for injuries that are most cosistently found in the literature of these two groups. Which are thermal injury, massive bleeding, wounds, traumatic amputations and injuries of the respiratory systém. This theoretical part is followed by data collection, which was conducted using questionnaries and semi-structured interviews, whose filling were participated by twelve randomly selected respondents from across the Czech Republic. Six from the first group and six from the second group. Evaluation of responses and transcribed interviews are presented in the practical part of this thesis. The second part contains a database of the three most common traumas to men between the ages of 18 40. The ambulance services of South Bohemia medical rescue provided a database of three most common injuries. The second source was from health care of armies in the Czech Republic, which were provided to me by the military Hospital in Brno. On evaluation of these databases follows another theoretical part describing traumas. I would like to point out the differences between traumas which have been documented in medical journals and real life trauma situations. From interviewing civilian health care professionals I found out that the most common injuries were too the head, while gunshots and splinter wounds were most common in the military . The information and conclusions are based on the database for both groups, and are representative of attendence of real life emergency situations. The conclusions are consistent with the reality. The survey also revealed that AČR medics generally treat simpler injuries. For example, in terms of intervention during natural disasters, paramedics answered coherently and clearly. To improve this situation more frequent training is required for paramedics in this area. Medics also reported the attendence of a larger number of mandatory courses, while for paramedics, the most of the courses were voluntary. Further research revealed that paramedics often engage in minor cases, whereas health professionals do not.Suggestions for improving these issues could be charging for unnecessary call outs and for patients who repeatedly use the service. It is not easy to solve this problem and I think that the soloutions are currently being trialled. Regarding to access to various injuries, both groups of respondents proceeded according to their own practice and in my opinion, it can not be compared with each other.

Social consequence on the families where a member is drug addicted.
RUDOVÁ, Lucie
Abstract {--} Social consequence on the families where a member is drug addicted This current issue is considered to pose a social phenomenon of significant consequence. Together with further social problems of the day, drug addiction and its impacts rank worldwide among the most burning issues, particularly in terms of their reflection in the media. Recently, the issue of drug legalisation has often been discussed widely in the media leaving the impact of drug addiction on the families stricken with this problem out of consideration. At first, the drug addiction affects solely the addicted family member, but in the course of time, drug addiction is bound to become a burning issue for the whole family. It depends on each individual family member and their level of the development of protective mechanisms which directly correlate with their chance to master this stressor, the occurrence of drug addiction within the family. The objective of my bachelor paper has been to evaluate the social impact of drug addiction on other family members. In relationship with this objective a hypothesis has been formulated - The social impact of drug addiction on a family the members of which are drug addicted is socially significant and traumatising for the other family members. A quantitative research has been carried out in family members, whose close relatives have been treated for drug addiction. The psychiatric clinic Červený Dvůr and its highly qualified and trained medical staff provided the necessary terms and conditions for this field research. Only 44 percent of the respondents were ready and willing to participate in the research, which shows that this topic still presents a highly sensitive issue, even a taboo, for families with a drug addicted member, as these families strive to protect their private sphere and do not tend to make their drug addiction family problem public. The questionnaire was focussed on the detection of the social impact related to drug addiction within the family. Thus, the responses presented a basis for determining the rate and significance of the social impact of drug addiction on the individual respondents. The results of the research section of this bachelor paper actually showed both the social significance of the drug issue and its high traumatic rate for stricken families. The objective of the presented bachelor paper has thus been fulfilled and the results have proved the correctness of the hypothesis.
