Four anthropometrical parameters (weight, BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference) were measured at the beginning, end and six months after finishing the program. The differences of parameters were statistically evaluated. Each participant filled in a questionnaire which was focused on potential predictors of successful l or unsuccessful weight maintenance. RESULTS: All anthropometrical parameters were lowered after the program. Six months after the end of the program all the average values of the parameters were increased. These results support findings of other follow-up studies. The influence of the eight selected factors was not proved. Even though...

Nurse in the psychiatric ward as a source of confidence and trust for the mentally ill
TICHÁ, Kateřina
Mental diseases are often view as a taboo and stigmatizing phenomenon by the public eye. Similarly, the work of a nurse in a psychiatric ward is considered as unimportant in number of publications. The nurses, working in this department, are designated as unable to work in other departments. In the theoretical part, first is mentioned the current psychiatric care in the Czech Republic. Further, a history of psychiatric care is also mentioned. The largest chapter is created by providing the general definition of communication, its forms and specific of communication with the mentally sick patients. The theoretical work is concluded by a chapter devoted to ethics and law in psychiatry, and of course the nurse as a person takes also a well-deserved part in it. The aims of the dissertation thesis were four. The first objective was to determine whether the authority of the nurse is an integral part of the nursing process in the care of the mentally ill patients. Furthermore it was to determine whether nurses in the psychiatric ward strengthen their authority by compliance with communication policies and procedures. The penultimate goal was to find out in what nurses with experience in other fields of medicine see the most important differences in the requirements imposed on them in the implementation of the nursing process. The last goal was to find out whether nurses in the psychiatric ward know and follow the guidelines for communicating with the mentally ill persons. To these goals four research questions were set: Do nurses perceive the influence, which results from their authority,as a positive aspect of nursing care of patients in the psychiatric ward? Is the nurses' authority strengthened within their work with the mentally ill throughout the observance of the principles of communication? What are the most common differences in nursing care that the nurses see, which currently works in the psychiatric ward in comparison with other branches of medicine, where they acted in the past? Do nurses have the knowledge of the principles of communication with the patients and adherence to these principles, in a psychiatric ward? The research group consisted from four nurses for observation purposes and seven nurses for semi-standardized interviews in the Psychiatric ward at the hospital of Ceske Budejovice, j.s.c. The first part of the research works with the concept of authority. This research provided a result that the authority should not occur between nurses and patients, and moreover nurses themselves should aspire to be more a companion and a helper to a successful treatment and mental health care. All nurses rather talk about trust, which by their own words is obligatory for effective nursing care and communication with the client. Therefore, they always try to provide the patient with maximum acceptable form of information and so to minimize their fear from the unknown and often from their own illness. At the same time they require and pay attention to strict observance of the rules by patients, which in effect reinforces the sense of confidence. Everywhere in health care and when working with people the communication is important, but nurses say, that in the care of the mentally ill, especially in communication it is essential not to make mistakes. The research observation confirmed their behavior, and with their approach that they subordinate all their behavior to the patient. When caring for a mentally ill person it is necessary at least double the efforts to gain the trust for enhance the feeling of safety and security. Nurses are also aware that working with patients depends on his personal qualities and recognition of individuality.

Communication with elderly people suffering from a hearing disorder
BLAFKOVÁ, Šárka
People communicate to understand one another and share information. Speaking is crucial in the course of everyone's entire life. In this thesis, we have focused on the issues related to communication with seniors with a hearing disorder. It is necessary to properly diagnose the hearing disorder using suitable methods of examination, and subsequently propose possible means of therapy and train the patient on use of the hearing aid if necessary. Two objectives were set out, both of which were achieved. Objective 1: Map the effective skills used by nurses when communicating with seniors with a hearing disorder. Objective 2: Determine how unsuitable communication by nurses affects seniors with a hearing disorder. A quantitative and qualitative examination was performed. Within the quantitative examination, 200 questionnaires were handed out, of which 178 properly completed were returned for processing. The qualitative examination consisted of a semi-structured interview of ten seniors with a hearing disorder with the help of technology. We defined three hypotheses. Hypothesis 1: The type of education affects nurses' communication skills with seniors with a hearing disorder. Hypothesis 2: Nurses adhere to the principles of communication with seniors with a hearing disorder. Both hypotheses were confirmed. Hypothesis 3: Nurses consider care for seniors with a hearing disorder to be a burden. The last hypothesis was not confirmed. Three research questions were also defined. Research question 1: How does the current manner of communication by nurses affect seniors with a hearing disorder? Answer 1: The current manner of communication of nurses with seniors with a hearing disorder has a positive effect. Research question 2: How do seniors with a hearing disorder perceive non-verbal communication by nurses? Answer 2: Seniors with a hearing disorder consider the non-verbal communication of nurses to be adequate. Research question 3: What problems do seniors with a hearing disorder encounter when communicating with nurses? Answer 3: The most common problem mentioned by seniors with a hearing disorder was lack of eye contact.

Švanda, Jan ; Kunstová, Renáta (advisor) ; Svěžen, Zdeněk (referee)
Presented thesis is focused to the document management system in the firm E-solutions, Ld. Selection of this firm is purposeful, because I have been working in the firm for several years. My thesis is targeted to the complex analysis of document management system (DMS) in the firm and the results of the analysis will be used for the implementation of new DMS. The target is accomplished by following steps, which can be expressed as partial concrete goals: First, the present situation of DMS in the firm is described, next, the detail description of the documents, the system should work with, is presented. Description of these documents is structured to the DMS needs. Subsequently firm processes which should DMS support are identified and analysed. These processes are converted to the optimal conditions to maximize their effectiveness in the DMS support. Integral part of the analysis is the consistent collection of the requirements to the new system. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part describes DMS generally, explains basic principles of DMS (characteristics, documentation and functionality) and creates base line for the practical part. The more comprehensive practical part of the thesis is directed to the document management in the firm E-solutions, Ld. Presentation of the basic information about the firm is followed by detail solution of partial goals. Assessment of the achieved results creates the final part of the work. The thesis will serve in the firm or at a contactor of DMS as the base for the selection, parameterisation and implementation of the concrete DMS solution.
