The perception of health and illness in the lay public in the Vysočina region
NETOPILÍKOVÁ, Lenka
Introduction: The subjective perception of health and diseases is a factor affecting health condition of every one of us. Many times, in health facilities we meet with laymen who do not know the definitions of health, diseases and often they also do not know which factors damage their health. That can result in trivialization of the problems or overuse of medical services. Objectives of the thesis: The thesis aims to find out how does the lay audience in the Vysočina Region perceive health and disease, what it does for its health and how would it describe health promoting and health threating behavior. Methodology: For fulfilling the objectives the qualitative form of the research using semi-structured interview with twenty informants from lay audience was utilized. The selection of informants was intentional on the basis of preset criteria. It was ten men and women of various age categories. The gathered data were then literally rewritten and analyzed. Results: It turns out that perception of health and disease is highly individual, and many factors play a role in it. Many times, the idea of informants diverge from available literature. The difference in perception is apparent even in determination of the boundary between health and disease. The results shown that people who underwent some mild illness in the past and now they are in good health do not feel healthy. On the other hand, informants suffering from chronic disease do feel healthy. From the perspective of perceived risk factors which could damage health the informants mostly mentioned environment in which the individual grows up. It was also found out that most people do not do the maximum for their health and that they do realize their shortcomings. Conclusion: Knowledge of perceiving health and disease appears as very substantial due to need of education and prevention. In this regard it is mainly beneficial for offices of general practitioners which are in primary care and very often educate and inform their patients in the area of health and healthy lifestyle.

Perception health and illness by the Roma minority.
MLEJNKOVÁ, Silvie
The Roma minority differs from the majority society mainly by its history, characteristics, traditions and customs, but especially by its perception, which is reflected in the approach to health and illness. It is important to have at least a minimum of knowledge about other cultures, because we also meet such patients in healthcare facilities. The theoretical part of the bachelor thesis entitled Perception health and illness by the Roma minority is devoted to history, but also the present. Attention is also devoted to the characteristics, definition health and illness, to which the factors are also related that affect health and illness. Perception health and illness also have an influence on the provision of nursing care. It was discussed with in the last chapter of the bachelor thesis. In total, three goals were set, namely to describe how Romany perceive health, the second goal was to describe how Romany perceive the illness and the last third goal was to describe how attitude towards health and illness affect the Romany access to the prevention. The practical part of the bachelor thesis was then processed using a qualitative research survey, specifically through semi-structured interviews with the Romany aged 18 to 50 years living in the South Bohemian region. A total of 10 interviews were conducted with the Romany members. The information obtained was further analysed in the form pencil and paper, then classified into categories and subcategories. The research showed that the Roma minority perceives health as a value that occupies a very high place in the value system. But it was not in the first place. The first place was taken by the family. Despite the fact that the Roma value health well, the attitude towards maintaining it is negligible. Their unhealthy lifestyle often did not correspond to statements about the value of health. The Romany most often associate the disease with pain, which limits them in their daily activities, and therefore often use a large number of analgesics. Surprising results were obtained in the part of prevention, where without one informant all went to the regular preventive inspections. The results can be used in a professional article or in teaching, for example in the education to health.

Příčiny eliminace koní ve vytrvalostních soutěžích a jejich prevence
ŠVARCOVÁ, Jana
The aim of this work was to acquire, process and evaluate information about the most common reasons for the elimination of horses from endurance competition races in the Czech Republic. Information about the veterinary status of horses was obtained from the main judges of various horse races held in the Czech Republic, from the horses' endurance cards, which record the factors evaluated during the competition itself, and where it is possible to find out what worsens most often, and how the cause manifests itself. Veterinary cards of individual horses and races were chosen randomly. The veterinary cards were evaluated with the aid of a full text commentary, giving detailed descriptions of each worsened factor, including their frequency. It was then suggested how problems could be avoided. Individual data was summarized, and the differences between individual groups of competitions were expressed. Based on the analysis of veterinary cards from participating horses in endurance competitions, recommendations were made on how to prevent problems, and what specific problems the riders should consider during the race. The most serious and common problems of horses in terms of endurance are described. It was found that the most common reason for the worsening of horses in endurance races is the factor known in Czech as "Chody", or Lameness. The most frequent deteriorating factor in veterinary controls was with the Mucous Membrane. In more than 80% of horses, more than two factors worsened during the race, which did not improve during the race in any way, but often even worsened. Many factors affect deterioration, from training and preparation of the horse, to the knowledge of the horse itself. The results show that most riders in the Czech Republic are not sufficiently informed. There is insufficient care for horses during endurance races. The riders are not experienced enough to prevent injuries or deterioration of the horse's health resulting in exclusion from races.
