Kutílková, Soňa ; Mareš, Jiří (advisor) ; Šimkovič, Dušan (referee) ; Langrová, Eva (referee)
The goal of bachelor's thesis to analyse life quality of patients suffering with the prostate cancer. It intents on confronting two therapeutic methods and their impact to life quality of the men suffering with this disease. It's referring to the importance of education and the correct way of communication while the diagnostic and therapeutic process. The main idea is emphasizing the nursing care. The main focus of the thesis lies on a exploratory survey of life quality in men suffering with prostate cancer which is being compared to the predictions available in specialized literature. The work group was created by the patients of the urology clinic and the oncology clinic of University hospital in Hradec Králové. 74 patients were divided in two groups. 37 inmates had undergone radical prostatectomy, the others staging pelvic lymphadenectomy and subsequent iradiation. The research approved that there is no statistically significant difference of life quality in both compared respondent's groups.

Němečková, Lenka ; Semecký, Vladimír (advisor) ; Louda, Miroslav (referee)
Increased incidence of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) has been associated with age of men. The quality of lives gets worse in men with BPH. Adenocarcinoma of the prostate (CaP) is the most common malignant disease in aged men, younger men as well. In 2005 the incidence of prostate cancer has exceeded the number of occurrence of lung cancer in the Czech Republic. Prostate specific antigen (PSA) has found widespread usefulness in diagnosis of prostate cancer and BPH, too. PSA is organ-specific marker only, therefore, new options (modify PSA, new markers) have been searched to improve CaP detection. Histological estimation of prostate biopsy specimens validates the diagnosis of CaP. Gleason score (GS) determining histology of biopsy tissue affect treatment strategy. Frequently GS of biopsy can be varying GS of final preparation after radical prostatectomy. Therefore, we analyzed the correlation between the prostate biopsy GS and GS of final preparation in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy. Almost half of cases in this group of 88 patients treated in The Clinic of urology in Faculty Hospital of Hradec Králové was identical to GS of prostatectomy specimens and same part of cases was undergraded. High grades correlated with elevated PSA levels. Amount of patients had the PSA levels over PSA...

Kopřivová, Pavlína ; Nikodemová, Hana (advisor) ; Kučková, Eva (referee)
In my bachelor's paper, the classic nursing process is elaborated; its theme that is particularly topical currently is a patient with intestinal tumour. The reason why the theme "colorectal carcinoma" was chosen is described in the preamble: it is mainly the current high frequency of this diagnosis. The numerical comparison if its incidence and mortality in the Czech Republic and worldwide are described here. The theoretical part deals mainly with anatomy and physiology of large intestine, factual disease, its diagnostics and therapy. Basic information related to the patient, course of his hospitalization, and the used therapy are also described here. The practical part deals with the actual nursing process; case history of illness and diagnosis that was elaborated on the basis of subjective and objective information gained during the patient's treatment are described in this part. The closing part summarises the overall hospitalisation course and future prognosis of the patient. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
