A profession as a nurse is one of the most responsible and the most hazardous jobs.

Expectations of mothers hospitalized at childbed ward, in newborn-care area
KÁLALOVÁ, Andrea
Bachelor{\crq}s thesis entitled ``Expectations of mothers hospitalized in the maternity ward in the field of newborn care{\crqq} has a research nature. The work is divided into two parts {--} a theoretical part and a practical part. The theoretical part has seven main chapters. The first chapter is devoted to the psychomotor development of the newborn. The second chapter is devoted to newborn care in the labour ward. The third and fourth chapters are devoted to nursing care in the newborn ward and to the needs of a newborn. The fifth and sixth chapters are devoted to breastfeeding and formula milk. The last chapter is devoted to discharge and care at home. The practical part is devoted to research. The aim of the work was to map out expectations of mothers hospitalized in the maternity ward in the field of newborn care and to find out the level of satisfaction with the nursing care of the newborn among mothers after childbirth. In order to prove or reject the hypotheses, I used a questionnaire with 16 questions. 115 questionnaires were handed out, 105 were returned. The rate of return was 91%. The results were translated in to graphs. The sample for the questionnaire research consisted of mothers on the third day after childbirth hospitalized under the rooming-in system; there were 100 mothers in the end sample. In the first hypothesis I presumed that mothers expect to gain basic information {--}especially practical - on providing basic needs in the care of the newborn. On the basis of processing the data obtained it was found that mothers prefer individual theoretical discussions with practical examples. The first hypothesis was therefore rejected. In the second hypothesis I presumed that mothers are satisfied with the provided nursing care of the newborn. The second hypothesis was proven; mothers are satisfied with nursing care provided. I would like to inform the nurses in the newborn ward about the results of my research.

The specifics of nursing care in women with gestosis
KOLPOVÁ, Ivana
Pregnancy, delivery and puerperium represent a biological strain for a woman. A healthy woman, however, overcomes it without major problems. Many pregnant women even feel better in pregnancy than out of it. Sometimes, however, the woman{\crq}s body cannot adapt to the new situation and therefore in overcomes the biological strain with exertion. In these women a group of symptoms develops, they are generally called gestosis. The gestoses are illnesses bound exclusively to the pregnancy and they require a specific nursing care. The objective of this project was to establish whether women with gestosis require a specific nursing care, and whether pregnant women with gestosis need specific information about their illness. The first hypothesis was proposed as follows: The women with gestosis need a specific nursing care. The second hypothesis says: Pregnant women with gestosis have sufficient information about their illness. The first hypothesis was confirmed by this research: the investigation has shown that women with gestosis require specific nursing care. The second hypothesis was also confirmed: pregnant women with gestosis have enough information about their illness. The research was carried out with a quantitative method by means of questionnaires. The questionnaires were handed out at the departments of obstetrics and gynaecology in the Písek Hospital Písek, a.s., České Budějovice Hospital, a.s., Jindřichův Hradec Hospital a.s. in te period from January to July 2007. A total of 79 questionnaires were processed. The work will be used in the teaching at the South-Bohemian University and published on the Internet.The objectives of this research were fulfilled. The specifics of the nursing care in women with gestosis were established, and also the information of pregnant women with gestosis about their illness. The specifics of the nursing care in women with gestosis include the measurement and monitoring of the BP, oedemas, the regulars weighing of the patients, the position on the left side is recommended, the midwife carries out various examinations, she cares for the patient in the sphere of hygiene, emptying and mental health. The majority of the women questioned (54 %) stated that they were adequately informed about their illness, 15 % thought that they were not sufficiently informed and 31 % did not know. In spite of the fact that the majority of the women (54 %) were sufficiently informed, which are somewhat more than a half, we think that the information should improve in the future - and this bachelor{\crq}s thesis could contribute to this. This bachelor{\crq}s thesis could also serve as the study material for the next years of midwives, as education material for midwives in practice, and published on the Internet.
