The options of nutritional support in inflamatory bowel disease
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.

Evaluation of nitrogen balance with respect to the administered parenteral and enteral nutrition and the composition of the body in critically ill patients
Vaňková, Martina ; Hronek, Miloslav (advisor) ; Havel, Eduard (referee)
The aim of this thesis was to identify and assess the nitrogen balance due to the field of nutritional support, body composition, energy expenditure, utilization of nutritional substrates and their changes during the hospitalization. Nitrogen balance was determined in 12 men and one woman (age 44 ± 16,4 years) with multiple injuries (ISS 40 ± 11) in the ICU based on 2 measurements in the time interval of 1-7 days, as the difference between the received and the ecrected nitrogen. The energy expenditure and nutritional substrate utilization nutritional indirect calorimetry, body composition analysis and blood chemistry laboratory were examined at patients. Correlation analysis revealed dependence between nitrogen balance and other monitored parameters and also dependence on the length of their trauma. Total protein intake averaged 1,40 ± 0,69 g.kg-1 .d-1 . At this dose were recorded negative values of nitrogen balance in the first measurement of the 9-patients and in the second measurement of the whole group. In this work also the results of uptake of parenteral and enteral route were compared. In practice, significant correlations were found between total uptake and energy expenditure (p = 6,31.10-3 ; r = 0,6) in the first measurement, and on the other hand negative correlation during the second...

Enteral nutrition in oncology patients
Šulcová, Jana ; Křížová, Jarmila (advisor) ; Mráz, Miloš (referee)
This bachelor thesis considers possibilities of enteral nutrition and its influence on life quality of oncological patients. The thesis consists of a theoretical and an experimental part. The theoretical part compiles the issue of malnutrition and nutritional support with emphasis on enteral nutrition. It deals with malnutrition in oncology and its solution. In the experimental part, a study of influence of enteral nutrition on life quality of oncological patients was conducted.

The survey includes a physical examination, measuring patients with a machine Bodystat Quadscan 4000, filling up a questionnaire, evaluation of laboratory tests, and analysis of the patient's diet. The results of the study prove positive influence of enteral nutrition on health condition of patients with respect to laboratory tests. According to the questionnaire, the life quality of patients increased and the diet report shows increased energy intake. The physical examination results and Bodystat measurements did not prove positive influence of enteral nutrition.

This bachelor thesis is divided into two parts theoretical and empirical and the purpose of this thesis is to deal with the topic of the nurse´s role in the nutrition of patients in intensive care. In the theoretical part of the thesis, complex issue of the nutrition ensure of intensive care patients is summarized. 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. The results may become inspiration for more detailed analysis of this topic.
