Nursing care management of patients after intrapleural chemical pleurodesis
KIESEWETTEROVÁ, Renáta
The pleurodesis is a treatment method for patients suffered from the symptomatic malignant pleural effusion. The goal of the pleurodesis is to close a pleural area by connection of visceral and parietal pleura in order to reduce or terminate production of pleural effusion. The sterile talc powder is the world's most used agens within a practice. After a parental analgesic is the powder (as a sllury) either applicated into a pleural cavity through the chest drainage or surgically dispersed over the treated (via abrasion, decortication) pleural space during the thoracoscopy/thoracotomy. This diploma thesis focuses on the treatment technique of bedside talc-pleurodesis through the chest drainage. The nurse has an irreplaceable role in the whole process from a preparation of patient to assistance by intrapreural application, to care of patient after the operation or serves as a physical support during potential complications. The aim of the presented work is to detect priorities in nursing care and find out whether patients need increased care after intrapleural therapy. The qualitative research method was chosen for the analysis where semi-structural interview with open questions were used. We created case reports analysed with the adaptive model of Callista Roy as well. The research sample contained patients chosen with respect to specialization of researched problem. We set two basic focal stimuli according to the analysis of respondents´ reactions. These stimuli serve as a basis for determination of priority parts of the nursing care by patients after bedside pleurodesis. We defined the need to be without pain and the need to ensure safety and certainty as a central focus of the nursing care. Among secondary fields of nursing care were identified sleep disturbances and limited mobility, which leads to reduction of self-care in getting dress, hygiene as well as in defection and miction. We found out within the second goal identical intensity of the nursing care before and after bedside talc-pleurodesis. This statement is based on comparison of interventions before and after aplication analysed via adaptive model by Roy. Nevertheless, causes of interventions were modified to a certain extent. The main goal of diploma thesis was to map requirements for high-quality nursing care related to bedside talc-pleurodesis via chest drainage. The work should extend theoretical basis not only for nurses in clinical practice.

Management styles and their relation to the satisfaction of employees
GRAMANOVÁ, Kamila
Abstract - Leader empowering behaviours and their relation with worker's satisfaction Current state: Nurse's work is physically and mentally demanding. Adequate knowledge and skills are also needed. Nurse managers whose leader empowering behaviours administer to good functioning of medical institutions have therefore a crucial role. In these days a monitoring of job satisfaction is an upcoming matter. According to that we can look for drawbacks and problems and take corrective actions. There is a 9th year of the nationwide research of safety and satisfaction of employees of Czech hospitals. Aim: The first aim of the research was to find out what leader empowering behaviours are used the most by nurse managers. The second aim was to find out how leader empowering behaviours influence satisfaction with work conditions of nurses. Two hypotheses were given. The first hypothesis postulated that nurse managers use democratic empowering behaviours the most. The second hypothesis postulated that satisfaction with work conditions of nurses is changeable, depending on leader empowering behaviours. Methodology: A quantitative method of data capture was chosen. Non-standardised questionaires with 30 closed questions were given out. There were four questions at the beginning to identify respondents. Other set of 15 questions was focused on recognition of leader empowering behaviours. Satisfaction with work conditions was monitored in the last set of questions. Results of the research were processed into graphs and tables. Research set: The research set included nurses working under nurse managers in inpatient wards in České Budějovice a.s. hospital. The questionaire was appropriately filled in by 112 nurses, corresponding 74,7% recoverability. This was used to complete the aim of this thesis. Results: Results of the thesis were divided into two sets. The first set of questions aimed on leader empowering behaviours of managers under whom the questioned nurses of particular departments work. Democratic empowering behaviours were evaluated the most used, according to the first hypothesis. The second set of questions aimed on satisfaction with work conditions. The highest job satisfaction was reached with democratic empowering behaviours. Autocratic, liberal and nonspecific empowering behaviours were used in minimal degree and nurses reported lower job satisfaction among these behaviours. Therefore the second hypothesis was also confirmed. Conclusion: The research pointed out that leader empowering behaviours are one of the factors that influence job satisfaction. It is positive thing that an interest and research in this area increased in the last decade. Periodic evaluation of job satisfaction enables monitoring the direction of its values. According to the survey, a newsletter with recommendations for nurse managers was formed. This newsletter pointed out pros and cons of leader empowering behaviours.

Design of a drying device for wood-processing industry
Vach, Tomáš ; Hrázský, Jaroslav (referee) ; Otáhal, Jan (advisor)
The thesis considers a stabilization of temperature of a wood fiber during production of medium close fibre boards MDF in a wood-processing industry. The original purpose to solve energetic optimalization of a kiln dryer has become a serious problem. It turned out that production suffers with a big heat loss which results in big heat loss gained during a kiln drying. Primary aim of this thesis is an examination of a cooling effect of environment on chosen parts of a production line and suggestion of acceptable proceeding to minimize heat loss and to rise temperature of the wood fiber to required temperature. Solution is aimed on the section of a production line between drying equipment and press. First part of the thesis introduces technology of production of fibre boards, introduction to heat transfer problems and also basics of computer modeling of heat flow and transfer using CFD simulation. The next part includes an evaluation of the heat loss of chosen parts of the production line in a current working condition and its comparison with computer simulations. Verification of accuracy of the results while using both approaches to solution is a first step to the improvement of the current situation. It is possible to use the verified calculation model for the following solution of effects on convective and radiation heating of a wood fiber layer. An important factor in the last period of a calculation is a real temperature of the fiber board-mat at the entrance to a press. The higher entering temperature in a set temperature range is reached, the lower time needed for pressing will be and simultaneously the whole industrial process will be cut short. The solution of a problem leads to an achievement of an energy saving and should become a solid basis from which it would be possible to evaluate an improvement of production of MDF boards. The conclusion of the thesis includes an analysis of findings which refers to a heating of wood fiber and it’s effectiveness for a practical use.

Café Teatr "Černá Labuť" and the Evolution of Café-Théâtre as an Artistic Platform in the Czech Republic
Nesvadbová, Nora ; Dvořák, Jan (advisor) ; Ježek, Vlastimil (referee)
This bachelor thesis is dedicated to the artistic platform named Café Teatr Černá Labuť, which has been functioning in Prague already for twelve years, having been established as an art gallery, theatre and café.
Another issue dealt with in this bachelor thesis is the evolution of the artistic form of ?café-théâtre? in the Czech Republic, in order to set the phenomenon of Café-teatr Černá Labuť to a historical context.
My main aim was to analyse the activity of the café-théâtre in Černá Labuť, where I have been working already for the fourth year, assess its artistic profile and propose some posible improvements of itsfuture performance.
I also consider the following big issue, which every ?café-théâtre? with a programme must cope and put up with: the running of daily café business in parallel with its artistic ambitions ? the coexistence of a café with a gallery and a theatre in a close connection to each other in one space.
This thesis aims at acquainting the readers with the pursuit of art in a café-théâtre at a model of Czech artistic platform "Café teatr Černá Labuť". It aspires at drawing the attention to both pitfalls and highlights of running a theatre in a café. It is a specific artistic form whose history has got in this country an outstanding and long tradition.

Drama education in catechesis
Pintířová, Ivana ; Valenta, Josef (advisor) ; Pokorný, Jiří (referee)
This theoretical work is searching for an answer for the question: What can drama education offer to current Czech [catholic] catechesis?
The introductory chapters deal with meaning and signification of catechesis, its goals, forms, methods and requirements of today's world. The following parts characterized, its principles, goals and types.
The next chapter describes relations between theology and theatre as ?parent? branches of catechesis and drama education.
The next part compares catechesis and drama education, their general characteristics [principles], goals and methods. This comparison reveals the common colouring and focus of both fields ? focus on complex harmonius development of individuals, - on relationships [with God], with oneself, with people, with the world around, - on life situations, especially crisis, - on overlaps [truth, beauty, symbol ?].
The author sets four basic areas which can make drama education effective in catechesis. They are: aesthetic element ? education via art, expressing oneself through the medium of symbols, games and work with a story.
The next part of the work elaborates the four areas and shows their significance for catechesis.
In the closing part the four aeras and their educatinal potencial are assigned to partial goals of catechesis in relation to God, to oneself and to world around. These analysis are completed with an attached tabbed diagram, which was created as a working stock during writing of the theses.
At the end some questions of possible future research are stated.

Process management and its use for optimization
Drahorádová, Lucie ; Tichá, Ivana (advisor) ; Lucie, Lucie (referee)
The subject of thesis Process management and its use in optimization is drafting process change in real company and its subsequent implementation. The work focuses on the steps important to the change process, their explanation and subsequent use in practical part. Thesis is divided into two main parts. First part is a theoretical background of the process management and a development of this sector, explanation of key concepts closely related with process management to a description of a specific methods, which play a role in the process of company management.Next part is a practical part where most of the theoretical background was used. Practical work itself is a real-world example of the banking environment, where was actually implemented. Because of a limited possibility to publish the practical part, I do not mention a particular company and the data used for the preparation example are type data - these are not real data. However, the implementation of process changes was set this way and works now, and since it was the optimization, it is therefore expected that this change will bring its savings in the future. Since the implementation of the changes has already occurred, even this assumption was fulfilled and set change of process still generates its savings.

The Meaning of Scenography in Children´s Theatre
Čmelíková, Barbora ; VOSTÁREK, Karel (advisor) ; MARUŠÁK, Radek (referee)
This diploma thesis presents a theoretical contemplation of scenography in children´s theatre supported by examples from the author´s own experience. It confirms scenography to be closely connected with the dramaturgical and directorial part of the whole creative process and to be a full-valued component of every single inscenation´s preparation. The work analyses the theatre space, mutual relations between the stage and the front, particular scenographic elements and the objective factors that influence creation of stage setting in children´s theatre. The thesis shows that the most determining of these are the specific characteristics of the children´s group and the personality of their teacher or leader. It also examines how technical as well as material conditions affect the choice and creation of stage setting. This diploma paper comes to the conclusion that limited conditions may obstacle the way to a theatre performance and mainly its scenography, but in the end they represent a challenge to search for creative solutions.

Morphological and genetical variability of Chydorus sphaericus (Crustacea, Cladocera) depending on the environment
Matušková, Ludmila ; Kořínek, Vladimír (referee) ; Sacherová, Veronika (advisor)
Úvod 5 ABSTRACT Genus Chydorus or more specifically the species of Chydorus sphaericus represents an extremely tolerant freshwater organism, which occurs in littoral zone of almost all kinds of aquatic habitats all over the world. It is usually associated with submerged macrophytes or substrate and also plays a key role in food webs of both vertebrate (fish) and invertebrate predators. Not only is this species in most localities the most common chydorid, but it is quite often the most common filtering cladoceran. Moreover, due to its little morphological variation most small globular representatives of the genus Chydorus were in the past all incorrectly ascribed to Chydorus sphaericus. However, thanks to more detailed studies it was suggested that so called species Chydorus sphaericus was not in fact a single taxonomic entity, but a group of several closely related species. It is clear today that for correct taxonomic desision it is necessary to combine all ecological, morphological, and genetic methods. The aim of this study was to explore genetical and morphological variation in populations of Chyrodis sphaericus from localities representing different sets of environmental factors. Four model localities were chosen: eutrophic ponds, temporary pools, mountain lakes and waterbodies affected by mining...
