Application of lexical strategies in learning German as L3
LAŠTOVKA, Ondřej
The diploma thesis ?Application of lexical strategies in learning German language as a second language? deals with the processes of acquiring vocabulary and lexical strategies, which pupils should use while learning German as a further foreign language after English. The theoretical part focuses on the description of semantization and the characteristics of lexical strategies in terms of tertiary language. On the basis of tertiary didactics are presented and analyzed criteria for vocabulary selection. In the practical part two sets of textbooks used at Czech schools were analyzed. ?Spaß mit Max 1? and ?Planet 1 - Deutsch für Jugendliche? were analyzed in terms of vocabulary selection, its presentation and practice, and explicit presented lexical strategies. Finally, there were elaborated such methods which helps pupils at lower secondary schools to acquire vocabulary in German on the basis of their knowledge and skills acquired by learning English.

Specificities of nursing newborn children with partum cranial injuries
KOBLIHOVÁ, Jitka
Birth injuries of the new-born infants might be caused either by mechanical or anoxic traumas that occur during the birth. The injuries might be a result of insufficient attention or inadequate efforts of the obstetrician but might as well occur completely independently of the obstetrician´s activities. The character and extent of birth injuries are very wide and vary from the insignificant ones that are cured completely without any consequences to those that leave long-term consequences and that may even end in the death of the new-born infant. Cranial injuries of the new-born infants include: caput succedaneum (swollen scalp), cephalohaematoma, petechiae, suffusion, eye injuries, scalpel-incised wounds, parietal bones fractures, spinal cord injuries and intracranial haemorrhage. This Baccalaureate thesis surveys the knowledge of the nursing staff as far as birth cranial injuries are concerned and concentrates also at specific aspects of nursing new-born infants who suffer from caput succedaneum (swollen scalp) and cephalohaematoma. The theoretical part comprises the most important pieces of medical knowledge in nursing new-born infants with birth cranial injuries. The first goal of this thesis was to map the level of knowledge of the birth cranial injuries among the nursing staff. In compliance with this goal a hypothesis was stipulated: ?Members of the nursing staff are well-informed about birth cranial injuries.? This hypothesis was verified and confirmed. It was found out that members of the nursing staff have good knowledge about birth cranial injuries, their predispositions and prevention. A quantitative research was carried out using the questioning method (the questionnaire technique was used). The research was carried out at the Neonatal Departments of the hospitals Nemocnice České Budějovice, a.s, Nemocnice Písek, a. s. and Nemocnice Strakonice, a.s. The second goal of this thesis was to map the specific aspects of nursing new-born infants who suffer from caput succedaneum (swollen scalp) and cephalohaematoma. In compliance with this goal a research question was stipulated: ?What are the specific aspects of nursing the new-born infants who suffer from caput succedaneum and cephalohaematoma?? It was found out that nursing new-born infants with caput succedaneum and cephalohaematoma does not comprise many specific aspects. The most important thing is to nurse such infants carefully and with caution, to position their heads on the side without caput succedaneum or cephalohaematoma, to check regularly the bilirubin level, to observe carefully the cephalohaematoma or caput succedaneum (its colour, size, localization) and to watch the behaviour of the new-born, mainly whether it shows any signs of pain. The research was carried out in a qualitative way using the question method ? the depth interview technique. The research file consisted of two nurses and two midwives from the Neonatal Department of the České Budějovice Hospital, a.s. The research has revealed that the nursing staff at neonatal departments is well informed about birth cranial injuries and that the nursing methods applied at new-born infants who suffer from caput succedaneum and cephalohaematoma do not differ much from the methods used in case of physiological infants. The output of the thesis is an educative material concerning birth cranial injuries that is intended for the nursing staff at neonatal departments.

Insulin Therapy from A Nursing Perspective
JELÍNKOVÁ, Kateřina
Diabetes mellitus is a serious and incurable disease prone to specific complications, known since 1550 BC. Recent international studies have shown that approximately 347 million people suffer from diabetes and the number is still increasing. Diabetes is treated by taking dietary measures; in addition to diet and oral antidiabetic medication, exogenous insulin intake is the ultimate treatment option. It was the exogenous insulin administration in 1922 that brought up a revolution in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. Since then safer and user-friendlier insulins have been and still are developed. Insulin is stored in liquid form in vials or cartridges and is only administered intravenously; however, it is assumed that an equally effective application method will be found in the future. The aim of the thesis is to map out the specifics of nursing care of insulin therapy clients and to answer the following research question: ?What are the specific needs of clients with insulin therapy?? ?How is the nurse involved in the education of the client in terms of insulin therapy?? ?Do insulin therapy patients have enough information about diabetes mellitus and insulin therapy?? The thesis consists of a theoretical and research part. The theoretical part deals with information about diabetes mellitus, insulin, insulin therapy and the role of nurses in care of diabetic patients. The research part encompasses an inquiry carried out as an anonymous interview where ten diabetic patients with insulin therapy were asked semi-open and open questions. The acquired data were transformed into case studies and categorization tables. The research questions were answered and the objective was achieved. In conclusion, the research suggests that patients do not have enough information about diabetes and insulin therapy. Specifics of the nursing care of diabetic patients with insulin therapy depends on the patient's needs. Most patients mentioned the need for contact with other diabetic patients. Nurses are involved in the education of patients with insulin therapy primarily as teachers of application and handling the insulin pen. This thesis served as the basis for the creation of an educational material for nurses. This material may prove helpful for nurses as a guide in the process of training diabetic patients to use the insulin pen. Alternatively, it can be used by medical care students as a learning resource.

Organization of pre-hospital urgent care upon transport accident with mass health disability
RATAJ, Martin
This thesis deals with the organization of pre-hospitalization emergency care in the event of a traffic accident involving multiple human injuries. It characterizes the activities of the emergency medical service. The objective of this thesis is to map in detail the organization of pre-hospitalization emergency care in the event of a traffic accident involving multiple human injuries. However, the established structure of the organization applies to any emergency involving multiple human injuries. Two research questions were defined for the research part of the thesis; they focused on the Emergency Medical Service of the Central Bohemia Region and the Emergency Medical Service of the South Bohemia Region in order to obtain research value. The first research question focused on comparing the ways in which paramedics were prepared to deal with emergencies in traffic accidents involving multiple human injuries at the Emergency Medical Service of the South Bohemia Region and the Emergency Medical Service of the Central Bohemia Region. The second research question was intended to map the solutions of traffic accidents involving multiple human injuries at the Emergency Medical Service of the Central Bohemia Region and the Emergency Medical Service of the South Bohemia Region from 2002 to 2012. The methodology selected for the research part of the thesis was a method using a qualitative research conducted through interviews in the form of semi-controlled interviews with paramedics with the Emergency Medical Service of the South Bohemia Region and the Emergency Medical Service of the Central Bohemia Region. The research group was composed of paramedics from two emergency medical services from each of which five respondents were selected randomly. Processing of the results relating to the first research question, which dealt with comparing the ways in which paramedics are prepared to deal with emergencies in traffic accidents involving multiple human injuries, showed that although the structure of the training is largely determined by law and, therefore, it is very similar at both the emergency medical services, there is a striking difference in the access and participation of paramedics to the training organized. The paramedics with the Emergency Medical Services of the Central Bohemia Region do not participate in theoretical preparations regularly, compared to their counterparts, even if they are organized every year. Processing of results relating to the second question, which focused on mapping the solutions of traffic accidents involving multiple human injuries, showed that the Emergency Medical Service of the South Bohemia Region participated in a much more serious traffic accidents involving multiple human injuries than the Emergency Medical Service of the Central Bohemia Region. The description of the procedures selected by paramedics at the scene of a traffic accident clearly shows that they had to use disaster medicine procedures, such as triage using sorting identification cards, for rescue and disposal operations. It can be clearly concluded that they are an emergency medical service far more experienced in the procedures for dealing with traffic accidents involving multiple human injuries are. When examining the organization of pre-hospitalization emergency care in the event of a traffic accident involving multiple human injuries I found out, using the methods of qualitative research conducted through interviews in the form of semi-controlled interviews carried out at two emergency medical services, some differences concerning theoretical training and actual procedures of dealing with traffic accidents involving multiple human injuries. The cause of these differences can be seen mainly in the frequency of occurrences of emergencies in the South Bohemia Region. For this reason, I see the paramedics with the Emergency Medical Service of the South Bohemia Region as more experienced.
