Přirozená obnova a produkční potenciál borovice vejmutovky (Pinus strobus L.) v oblasti Městských lesů Hradec Králové
Vaněk, Petr
This dissertation thesis deals with two aspects of Eastern white pine. The first objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of the amount of solar radiation on the parameters of natural regenerated Eastern white pine individuals -- density, height, stem diameter, height increment and crown morphological parameters. The second objective of this work was to compare the production potential (stem volume, stock) of Eastern white pine and native Scots pine. For both purposes were selected forests stands with appropriate representation of Eastern white pine in Hradec Králové municipal forests. For the first objective study showed that the amount of light is a key factor in relation to Eastern white pine regeneration. Increasing amount of light significantly affects both density and growth parameters (height, stem diameter, height increment) of natural regenerated individuals. Effect of light on crown morphological parameters has not been proved. For the second objective evaluation of data showed that same old Eastern white pine in the same habitat reaches significantly greater stem volume than Scots pine in the order of several tens of percent, depending on the age of forests stand.

Care for the oral cavity in a hospitalized patient
CINCIALOVÁ, Kateřina
The term oral hygiene includes a set of measures to prevent the origination of parodont and hard tissues and their progression. These ailments belong to the most common and frequent ones despite the fact they may be prevented by appropriate care and by the proper choice of oral hygiene aids. The most frequent problems are dental decay, dental plaque, gum disease. For each of us, good oral hygiene practicing daily is essential for preventing troubles mentioned above. During hospitalization patients often alter their habits and modes because of the disease and the stay out of home. In patients who are not self-administering and patients with limited capabilities it is the nurse who is in charge of providing the oral hygiene. Each nurse´s priority should be to meet all the patient´s needs and the proper oral hygiene is one the basic ones. I set four aims in my thesis. The first was to find out patients´view of the oral hygiene level at hospitalization. The second aim was to describe the standards of oral hygiene the particular ward offers the patients. The third aim was to compare opinions of self-administering and non self-administering patients. The fourth aim was to compare the role of a nurse in providing oral hygiene for self-administering and non self-administerin patients. The results of my research confirm the first hypothesis {--} hospitalization brings about changes in oral hygiene. Also the second hypothesis proved to be right {--} during hospitalization oral hygiene worsens in patients because they do not have enough possibilities to carry out all the procedures they are used to. The third hypothesis was confirmed, too. Nurses are familiar with oral hygiene aids and know how to use them. The fourth hypothesis that nurses do not ask patients to tell them what their oral hygiene habits are was true. I conducted the research by the questionnaire method and the method of a stuctured interview. The research samples were nurses and patients in following units - neurological, internal, surgical and orthopaedic - in the České Budějovice hospital, Inc. and in the Tábor hospital. Inc. The results of this research could be used as a feedback for hospital management to help improve patients´oral hygiene. It is necessary to take some measures in this respect. Nurses should be more active in getting information about patients´ oral hygiene aids and their hygienic habits. They should ensure the highest patients´comfort possible. Then their efforts will be rewarding.

Epidemiology of tuberculosis - reaction on vaccine BCG
FOŠUM, Pavel
Epidemiology of tuberculosis-reaction to BCG vaccine World Health Organization records nine million people worldwide who fall ill with tuberculosis and more than three million who die of this disease a year. Tuberculosis has been known for a long time and despite the discovery of Mycobacterium tuberculosis etiological role by Robert Koch, the invention of RTG diagnostics by Roentgen and effective treatment using antibiotics by Waksman as the first, this disease still represents a considerable risk for society. Prevention using BCG vaccine has positive as well as negative aspects. This thesis is focused on describing newborn vaccination coverage, occurrence and duration of side and adverse effects after the application of BCG vaccine during the first days of life and on the influence on the following compulsory vaccination. We used the method of quantitative research in the form of epidemiology descriptive study using the technique of individual data collection and analysis. As a research area the group of children born in 2004, 2005, and 2006 was used. The group of 804 children (410 boys and 393 girls) was selected by the technique of random cluster sampling. We found out that out of 804 respondents 98.6 % were vaccinated with BCG vaccine. The group of 11 children was not vaccinated due to: HBsAg positivity of mother, low birth weight or health problems. Reaction after BCG vaccination was not healed until the next planed shot in 307 children (38.1 %). There were 4 people with no reaction at all to BCG (0.8%). The most frequent side (adverse) reaction after vaccination was scar unhealed at the time of next planed vaccination in 274 cases, (34.1%). Monoreactions accounted for more than a half of recorded reactions. Reaction time period was in the range from 11 to 300 days. Median of reaction time period was 30 days. We did not find any serious adverse reaction. Our research demonstrated, that frequency of side and adverse reactions after BCG vaccination is high (38.1 %). These are mainly benign side effects. We found that these reactions lead to postponing of the subsequent vaccination of the compulsory vaccination scheme in all who reacted to BCG vaccination. The occurrence of side reactions after BCG vaccine raises the question of appropriateness to carry out the BCG vaccination in first days of life. The results of this thesis can be used as a pilot study for the whole country study of mapping side and adverse reactions and further consideration of compulsory vaccination scheme.

Customer relationship management in outsourcing of IT
Horáček, Jan ; Bruckner, Tomáš (advisor) ; Vaněček, Michal (referee)
Outsourcing of IT is likely to be a perspective model of IT service delivery. However, only a small number of companies have adopted it and according to surveys, their satisfaction is relatively low. On the contrary, customer relation management (CRM) is a marketing approach that still keeps its popularity. Is not therefore CRM a solution also for outsourcing of IT? How should it be applied in the field? This master's thesis is intended for providers of outsourcing of IT and it aims to find answers to the questions above. The first step towards the goal is to identify main characteristic features of outsourcing of IT, which consequently provide a guideline for a systematic approach to the solution. The thesis does not presume reader's familiarity with CRM, hence the second chapter offers a brief yet holistic view of the issue. A synthesis of the information from the first two parts leads to a conclusion that it is not possible to decide about suitability of CRM in outsourcing of IT on a general basis, but always in the particular situation. Therefore the work suggests a set of criteria for the choice. The consecutive chapters deal with the application of CRM. Firstly, an entire system of tools for evaluation of customers is proposed. It enables providers to determine the suitable level of individual approach to each customer with consideration of both business and technical factors. Consequently, a provider can start building a relationship with his customer taking advantage of number of recommendations and tools given by this paper. It includes measures not only for convincing customers but also for increasing their retention. The thesis discusses broad variety of aspects of marketing in outsourcing of IT. Its scope ranges from customer uncertainty mitigation and purchasing process of a corporate customer, over tips on how to manage customer satisfaction, to appropriate adjustments of a service level agreement (SLA). The paper also briefly analyses the specifics of CRM in outsourcing of IT in the public sector.

Perioperative nursing care from the perspective of the patient
LHOTSKÁ, Jana
The bachelor's thesis deals with the nursing care which is provided to the patients before, during and after the surgery until discharge to home care. In the research nurses of surgery and their cooperation in the perioperative nursing care are also included. The theoretical part is focused on the issue of the perioperative nursing care, on the preoperative preparation and the postoperative care and how the patient perceives the time just before the surgery when he/she is passed to the operating room. In the theoretical part there is also the task of the nurses included providing the perioperative care and their mutual cooperation. The first aim of the thesis was to find what is the level of continuity of the care in the perioperative time from the perspective of the patient. The other aim of the thesis was to find the cooperation of healthcare workers in the perioperative care. The survey was conducted through the qualitative research, through the method of questioning. The data collection technique were the depth individual interviews with the patients and nurses. The choice of the patients was intentional, the patients had to be after a surgery and already in home care. The choice of the nurses was intentional, too, the surgical nurses had to care for patients after surgeries, the nurse anesthetists had to work in the surgical operating theatres. The results of the survey show that in the preoperative time the patients see the biggest problem in giving lack of information about the postoperative care. In ensuring the intraoperative care the nurse anesthetist introduced herself/himself only to one patient at the first contact. In the postoperative time none of the patients were in contact with the nurse after full awakening, they only had signalling device. Further the interviews with the patients show that no patients were instructed on the first postoperative getting out of bed and further postoperative rehabilitation. Out of the results of interviews with the surgical nurses and nurse anesthetists we find out that the nurse anesthetist participates in the preoperative preparation just on the day of surgery. The problem in the cooperation of the surgical nurses and nurse anesthetists is transmission of the information and documentation during the transfer of the patient from the operating room. In the postoperative rehabilitation the nurse can cooperate with the physiotherapist but only on weekdays. The results of my bachelor's thesis could be submitted to the head nurse of the hospital but especially to the head nurses of the surgical and anestheziology department to have opportunity to agree on better cooperation and communication. Because I work in the surgical postoperative department I suppose then it would be appropriate to consult together possible improvement of providing the nursing care with the colleagues in the department throughout the perioperative period, or to organize seminars focused on the issue of nursing perioperative care. The nurses can only point out that the establishment of a sleep-in room would be a benefit both for patients and for nurses however its establishment is not real. Then my bachelor's thesis could be used as an information resource for nurses working in surgical fields.

The use of cluster analysis to evaluation half-year measurement campaign of gaseous elemental mercury from atmospheric station Křešín u Pacova
Veselik, P. ; Dvorská, Alice
This paper deals with evaluation of gaseous elemental mercury in the air from Atmospheric Station Křešín u Pacova. The measurements were conducted with two identical instruments positioned right next to each other in one ground-based container in a 10 min time step, between December 2012 and June 2013. This measurement campaign was aggregated into approximately weekly intervals. The aim of this paper is to show the use of cluster analysis for finding those time periods which correspond the most according to appropriately selected criteria. Classification was performed by using cluster analysis of regression coefficients obtained by modelling weekly measurements by the second device on the measurements from the first device. Results of this analysis indicate the existence of five periods in which the regression lines show certain similarities. Further attention is paid to their analysis.

Institut of roman civil process with an emphasis on reception of the roman law
Brantlová, Kateřina ; Falada, David (referee) ; Bělovský, Petr (referee)
Identification of individual phases of development of civil proceedings as an ancient, classic, post-classic and Justinian process has its information value. Original legislation proceedings soon became obsolete as it could not catch on an outset of changes in social development of the country. Therefore, it is no wonder that a vast majority of its inherent features did not make it to the next procedural form. Full impact of legislation proceedings was the most typical for the oldest stage of the Roman history. And again, it is suitable to emphasize the principal benefit of legislation procedure consisting mainly in suppression of unauthorized actions. Legis actione was the first step on a long way leading to better and more perfect procedural regulation. Contrary to the previous procedural regulation the formula proceedings had been for a long time a crucial form of proceedings. Therefore, it did not come from usage in one day, but this process was very slow. This is demonstrated also by relatively long-lasting cohabitation of the classic and cognition procedure. Therefore, the identification "classic" is perfectly appropriate. Paradoxically, this procedure was not the one which should have become a focus of attention of many following generations of jurists. The term "post-classic procedure" can...

Non-artificial Music as Subject Matter for Secondary Schools
Kopička, Ondřej ; Poledňák, Ivan (advisor) ; Drábek, Václav (referee)
This work examines the nature and significance of using popular music in music education. Through historical research and practical principles, it aims to construct a foundation for a new system of high school music education. The work unfolds in four parts. Part 1 probes past and present appearances of popular music in music education, especially in high-school textbooks. Part 2 is a contribution to the new system of education, based on an unbiased approach towards music. We are trying to understand the role of music in the lives of our students and give them appropriate examples to work with on the field of harmony, melody, rhythm and form analysis. However, this approach also deserves to illustrate the context of music in human life, where popular music quite often overwhelms all other styles. This part asks three major questions: Why to teach it, What to teach and How to teach it. Given answers should unravel the concept itself and illustrate the system as well as particular types of connection between music and other subjects (such as math, history, social studies etc.) Part 3 aims to serve as an illustration of a modern multimedia high-school textbook and proposes a new concept of music curriculum development for music teaching and learning. Finally, part 4 deals with attachments such as sounds,...
