Evaluation of nutrition habits of nurses on ICU and ARW by NutriDan programme
EIGNEROVÁ, Anna
Nutrition and eating habits are one of the items of healthy lifestyle as well as mental and physical well-being. Eating should be performed on regular basis and all nutrition components have to be represented in proper proportion. The interrelation of sugars, fats (seba) and proteins is very important (55 - 60 % : 25 - 30 % : 10 - 15 %), sufficient protein ingestion (3-6 portions a day), fruit and vegetables (3 - 5 portions a day), dairy products (2 - 3 portions a day), meat and meat products (1 - 2 portions a day). Drinking liquids should be sufficient and should be kept within the range of about 30ml per 1 kg of our body weight, and of course the drinking liquids is important integral part of our nutrition. The aim of this work has been to evaluate and assess quality of eating habits of nurses working at Intensive Care Units (ICU) and Anaesthesiological Resuscitation Ward (ARW) according to NutriDan programme. In order to accomplish this aim the following four hypotheses have been postulated: H 1 The nurses working at ICU and ARW eat their meals on regular basis. H 2 The nurses working at ICU and ARW have their menus containing fruit and vegetables with ratio in accordance with recommended quantities for daily consumption (4 x 100 g). H 3 The consumption of liquids at work is lower than that out of work (at home). H 4 The interrelation of sugar, fat and proteins in nurse menus is in harmony with individual estimate of energy expenditure. Research has been outlined and drawn up as quantitative one and anonymous questionnaire (answer sheet) has been used containing 3 parts (general pat, special part and the menu mentioned above applied in time period of 24 hours). One hundred and four questionnaires (104) have been distributed in all while fifty-two (52) pieces of which have been given to nurses working at Anaesthesiological Resuscitation Ward and fifty-two (52) pieces of the questionnaire have been given to nurses working at Intensive Care Units.The aforementioned questionnaires have been distributed in three hospitals and seventy-three (73) have been received for our evaluation, of which forty-three (43) from nurses working at Anaesthesiological Resuscitation Ward and thirty (30) from nurses working at Intensive Care Units. For research data processing we have applied two programs: Microsoft Excel program and NutriDan program; the results obtained have been processed so as to be presented as graphs. The aim of the work has been fulfilled and the hypotheses 1, 2 and 4 se have been invalidated i.e. disconfirmed whereas the hypothesis 3 has been confirmed. The nurses working at Intensive Care Units and Anaesthesiological Resuscitation Ward do not eat their meals on regular basis, they often have lower energy taking, moreover they do not have correct interrelation of sugar, fat and proteins. The aforementioned nurses show lower and irregular consumption of fruit and vegetables, meat and dairy products and dietary fibre. Consumption of liquids is sufficient both at work and at home. The management of hospitals and wards as well will be made familiar with the results of this bachelor's degree diploma work i.e. those where the research has been carried out. This work can be used as a source material for lectures and enlightenment material in order to change the attitude of nurses of intensive care to eating habits of theirs.

Constipation - problem of immobile patients
HULIČKOVÁ, Tereza
My thesis deals with constipation in immobile patients. The research was carried out by collecting data using the questionnaire method. The questionnaires were focused on immobile patients of all ages hospitalized in any units in the České Budějovice hospital, Inc. The objective of this thesis was to survey the drinking regimen and eating habits in immobile patients and to analyze their impact on the development of constipation. I set three hypotheses: The first hypothesis suggests that immobile patients´ alimentation does not include an increased requirement for dietary fiber. My research shows that patients´ diet at home contains more fruits, vegetables and whole meal bread. A diet therapist hardly ever comes to see hospitalized immobile patients. Most patients are not on any diet which would limit the intake of particular nutrients. The first hypothesis was confirmed. The second hypothesis suggests that immobile patients do not observe the drinking regimen. The research data analysis shows that patients´ fluid intake is the same no matter if they stay in hospital or at home {--} it is about 1- 2 litres a day. The fluid intake depends on patients´ age, weight and health condition. It is possible to say that immobile patients observe the drinking regimen. The second hypothesis was not confirmed. The third hypothesis suggests that immobile patients do not have enough privacy while they pass stool. They feel ashamed and these feelings also raise the constipation development. There is a lot to improve in this respect, the nursing staff should be aware of the fact that immobile patients need more intimacy at passing bowel motion. It is not surprising that most immobile patients feel the lack of privacy in hospital. In my opinion not enough attention is paid to the question of privacy in hospitals. This has a negative impact on patients´comfort. Patients´ diet should include more dietary fiber. Individual consultations with a diet therapist are advisable for patients. The nursing staff should also focus on the patients´ drinking regimen. The right diet and drinking regimen may contribute to constipation prevention. The empathetic, holistic, psychological and sensitive approach to patients should improve patients´ condition and alleviate their pain. Each nurse should make her best to prevent patients from feeling undignified in hospital.

ŠIMOTOVÁ, Jaroslava
The work is dealing with the drinking habits in the recreational form of fit-boxing. The specifics of the drinkling habits are thoroughly described in the theoretical part of the work. The characteristics during heavy physcial endurance as well as the importance of drinking habits are defined here. The drinking habits of active fit-boxers is monitored in the practical part. These habits are then compared with a group of non-active people with sitting or non-movement jobs. From the practical examination it is obvious that those active involved in the fit-boxing have higher consumption of liquids and superior drinking habits with comparison to the group which is non-active.

SNÍDANĚ ŽÁKŮ 2.STUPNĚ ZÁKLADNÍ ŠKOLY V KŘEMŽI
SOUKUPOVÁ, Věra
The time at school is a very exposed stage in a child{\crq}s life in which food and food habits play a very important role. There are negative affects mainly in the food habits at breakfast times of children at secondary school. These children prefer sweets and fast food. They eat very little fruit and vegetables and don{\crq}t keep to a good drinking regime. My work targets mainly secondary school children. The aim of my bachelor work called ``Pupils of Křemže secondary school breakfast habits{\crqq} is to find out the breakfast habits of children at primary and secondary schools with regards to regularity, appropriate quantity and quality composition and conditions in which the first food of the day was eaten. The next aims were to get information about drinking regimes of children in the morning and to emphasize the importance of breakfast in a daily diet. The food habits of growing children at breakfast times are unsatisfactory. They cause health problems and bad food habits, which young people carry to their future family life. This is also the beginnings of obesity in connection with inappropriate food habits which are today{\crq}s biggest problems. The main part on this fact is played by the parents, the fast lifestyle and community.

CHILDREN´S HABITS CONCERNING DRINKING REGIMEN AT BASIC SCHOOLS IN THE TOWN HAVLÍČKŮV BROD
TVRDÁ, Lenka
Water is necessary for life, it forms essential part of body and many important chemical reaction takes place in it. Water intake is influenced by hypothalamus what is expressed as a feeling of thirst. Fluids are intaken especially in form of drink, less from food and metabolic processes. The biggest water release is by kindness, less by skin, respiration and stool. Insufficient water threatens by dehydratation. Child{\crq}s body is vulnerable to dehydratation more then adult{\crq}s body. In developing countries 4 -5 millions of children per year die of dehydratation per year. Smaller lack of water is expressed as higher tiredness, inattention or headache. Mucous membrane dries up and has predisposition to penetration of infection and constipation or lack of appetite can appear. Chronic absence of water can be initiatory moment for formation of cholelithiasis and renal stones. Lack of water during school teaching can decline efficiency and capability of concentration. It is well known that drinking of extra sugar beverages leads to egestion of insulin with subsequent rapid decline of blood sugar. High capacity of sugar in lemonade leads to satiety as a consequence of children refusing food. There were used two methods for data collection - direct questioning (in the first and second classes in school) and questionnaire (from the third to ninth classes). Rate of return was 100 per cent. The aim of work is survey of informedness with real children behavior. These hypothesis were verified by research. Hypothesis 1: Children are well informed. Hypothesis 2: Children disobey these information. Hypothesis were confirmed in major part of stand point. I thing that my research brought up new pieces of knowledge concerning drinking regimen at basic schools. Results can be used as basement to next research in this area and extend information concerning this problem or for preparation of prime prevention programs at basic schools.
