Polachová, Monika ; Meisnerová, Eva (advisor) ; Novotný, Aleš (referee)
In my bachelor's work I describe the idiopathic inflammatory bowel diseases. The theoretical part is devoted to the history, epidemiology, etiopathogenesis, basic characteristics of the disease and the current treatment options. One of the serious consequences of the inflammatory bowel diseases is malnutrition, which then affects the treatment, worsens the course of the disease and reduces the quality of life of patients. The cause of malnutrition in these patients is both inflammatory activity during a relapse, the side effects of drug therapy and reduced food intake due to the numerous diarrhea and abdominal pain. In the practical part I monitored the patients during my practice in gastroenterology clinic. The aim of my work was to determine what attention is paid to the state of nutrition of patients with severe course of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, which were indicated by the biological treatment. Monitoring of nutritional status, nutritional support and correction of malnutrition is an integral part of the treatment, during which a nutritional therapist plays an important role.

The research part was carried out on grounds of quantitative survey through a standardized questionnaire. There are two aims to the study; the first one was to find out the food intake of all patients of the 4th internal clinic. This goal was not accomplished, because not every patient placed in the standard ward was willing to complete the questionnaire.

We have been dealing not only with the common concept of the nutrition on the intensive care units and the role of the nutrition therapist but also with the characteristics, causes and diagnosis of the malnutrition as the most serious issue in the nutrition field. In the thesis, the types of a nutrition support in the intensive care have been also defined as well as the indication, contraindication, types of serving, complications, types of medicines, monitoring and the related role of the nurses. The practical part provides with the results of the research, which have been found by using a qualitative research method. The main purpose of this bachelor thesis was to emphasize the role of the nurse by the handing enteral and parenteral nutrition and also a description of the cooperation with the nutritional therapist on the associated intern and neurological unit of intensive care at České Budějovice hospital. At the basis of above mentioned, two objectives have been stated. At first, our task is to find out the way how is the right handing of the nutrition to the intensive care patient by the nurse secured. The second task is finding out the way of cooperation of the nurse and the patient while securing the nutrition of the patients in the intensive care unit. For the first task, four research questions have been established, for the second task have been established one research question. For the high-quality data network, the method of hidden monitoring for keeping authenticity has been used. As a consequence of the insufficient amount of data to the reaching of the second task, half-structured interview has been chosen instead. Research dataset consisted of thirteen records of sighting and one interview on the above mentioned intensive care unit. As a basis for analyses, three observation sheets were made, into these sheets were then during the observation information assigned. Each sheet consisted of single points planned in accordance to theoretical part. The nurse follows these points when securing the patient´s nutrition. Remaining information, not included in observation sheet were written into the notes section or were included into the information about the performing of the particular point. The results were analyzed by using an open-coding. There are six categories coming out from the analyses, which are connected with securing the education, information providing, keeping an obstacle-free approach complications preventing, using tools, nurse´s cooperation with the patient and deciding processes during work performance. In the results, there is a conclusion of the analysis with illustrative examples to find. The sequence of the results is presented according to sequence of categories during performing. In each category, the results are evaluated according to research tasks stated. We believe, that the obtained information, which map the activities of the nurses when securing the nutrition at the intensive care unit patients and the acquainting the cooperation with the nutrition therapist helps in the future to the awareness of the potential weaknesses and following correction.
