Cardio-Surgery Operation from the Patient´s Point of View
CHMELÍKOVÁ, Petra
With the hectic time of today, the number of people with cardio-vascular disorder increases continuously. A whole range of factors are the cause of this disorder. Among others, it is stress which people are mostly exposed to, due to the modern bustling style of life. Further, it is improper food, obesity, diabetes mellitus, smoking and many other reasons increasing the risk of this illness. In connection with cardio {--} vascular disorder, the patients may be confronted with the decision, whether to undergo a cardiac {--} surgery operation or not. The patients quite understandably go a whole range of emotions, anxiety and feelings in connection with the cardio-surgery operation. In our thesis, we determined 3 aims. In the first aim, we concentrated our attention on the cardio-surgery patient´s perceiving him himself, his family and his future in connection with the cardio-surgery operation. The aim was carried out. Four hypotheses refer to this aim. Hypothesis number 1: The cardio-surgery patient perceives the cardio-surgery operation as the result of his life style. Hypothesis number 2: After the heart operation, the cardio-surgery patient feels to have failed in the eye of his family. Hypothesis number 3: The psychic wellbeing of the cardio-surgery patient depends on the help and assistance of his family (background) during the time of his convalescence. Hypothesis number 4: The cardio-surgery patient believes to be able to join in a normal life, the same as before his health problem leading to the cardio-surgery operation has started. The second aim has to do with the most frequent anxieties the cardio-surgery patient must cope with in connection with the heart operation. The aim was carried out. To this aim, the hypothesis number 5 related: Highly specialized nursing care of a cardio-surgery patient is concentrated on the most frequent anxieties of these patients. The third aim was directed at non-saturated needs of the cardio-surgery patient during the time of his hospitalization after the operation. To this aim, the hypothesis number 6 applied: In the nursing care of a cardio-surgery patient, the problems arising from dissatisfying the psychic needs prevail over dissatisfying the basic needs. The dates for the purpose of the research examination were collected in the form of an anonymous questionnaire consisting of 32 questions. The question used here were both opened and closed. The questionnaires were given to hospitalized patients before and after the heart operation in 6 cardio-centers. The research complex was produced by 185 respondents. The results were graphically worked into column graphs and tables. In the research examination, 4 of 6 hypotheses were confirmed. The results of this work will be applicable with the work of the nurses at the cardio-surgery for the purpose of improving the nursing care of cardio-surgery patients.

Jezberová, Zuzana ; Hejnák, Václav (advisor) ; Marcela, Marcela (referee)
The Diploma thesis deals with issues of the support of regional development through the Local Action Group Podchlumí, r.a. (LAG Podchlumí).
The goal of this thesis was to explore the contribution of the LAG Podchlumí to quality of life of residents and business development. Assessment of the influence of LAG on regional development has been based on the existence and implementation of the Program of rural development program of the Czech Republic Axis IV. LEADER, which leads to an improvement of management and to mobilization of the natural inner potential of countryside. The Program of rural development represented the main financial source for fruition of LAG projects in the previous programming period.
In this thesis, activities of the LAG Podchlumí and local subjects for support and development of partnership of residents and for public, business, and non-profit communities have been analysed. Implementation of own projects, through which the versatile development of the region, life improvement of residents, increase the attractiveness of the region has been evaluated. In order to get an independent and objective evaluation, an anonymous questionnaire has been conducted among residents of the region Podchlumí. Further, personal observation of the region Podchlumí, a study of professional literature as well as of internal materials of the LAG has been done. The hypothesis that the Local Action Group Podchlumí plays an important role in development of partnership of public administration of municipalities, agricultural subjects, independent agricultural as well as non-agricultural enterpreneurs, and non-profit organizations has been verified on the basis of analysis of realized activities. Support from the Program of countryside development to the region Podchlumí, Measure IV.1.2 Realization of local development strategy, contributed to achieving improvements in quality of life of residents. The greatest support was given to appearance of communities and quality of infrastructure, development of public facilities and services. Financial resources were spent also on modernization and development of agricultural as well as non-agricultural business. In comparison with other LAGs in the district Jičín, the LAG Podchlumí supported the greatest number of projects through the measure IV.1.2 of the Rural development program on realization of local developing strategy. It has been found by means of evaluation of the anonymous questionaire among residents of the region that residents perceive improvement of appearance and life of communities but they are not aware of the fact that many projects have been implemented with the contribution of activities of the LAG Podchlumí. For this reason, the LAG Podchlumí should focus more on propagation of its own activities. Residents of the region are interested in surrounding of their villages.
It is possible to made conclusion that the results of analysis of activities of the LAG authenticated and confirmed correctness of the hypothesis that the Local Action Group Podchlumí plays an important role in development of partnership of public administration of municipalities, agricultural subjects, independent agricultural as well as non-agricultural enterpreneurs, and non-profit organizations.

Málková, Lucie ; Douda, Karel (advisor) ; Karbanová, Eva (referee)
The main task of this bachelor thesis is to inform about Chinese pond mussel (Sinanodontawoodina) invasion in the Czech Republic ecosystems of aquaculture. We provide both the literature review and risk evaluation. More we have presented impacts to other fish growth. At first we interested ourselves in the invasive species description. Then we have presented the threats for ecosystems caused with the existence of bivalve. We present the bivalve life cycle with all its impacts to the life cycle of fish. There are presented all function of bivalve in ecosystems and the risk evaluation appearing after these are overpopulated. These invasive species are worldwide problem. They are endangering the biodiversity in the nature. There are also negative impacts to economy and peoples´ health.
The bivalve are said to be ecosystem engineers. Their usefulness depends on their quantity. Invasive bivalve appear in a great densely. These produce great damages. I have presented all problems connected with the existence of threatened species and more have discussed all risks connected with extension of invasive bivalves.
We provide essential remedies and evaluate potential impacts in order to protect original species and lower damages in the economy of fishery. The essential part is the summary of legislatives.

Orangutans breeding and factors affecting their reproduction in captivity and in the wild
Kalkušová, Olga ; Kubík, Štěpán (advisor) ; Burešová, Eva (referee)
Information concerning orangutans living in the wild and the issue of their breeding has been summarized within the framework of this thesis. Orangutans in their natural habitats in tropical rainforests of Sumatra and Borneo are not subjected to the same influences as those bred in captivity. Their reproduction thus differs in certain aspects. Reproduction of orangutans in the wild is strongly influenced by their solitary way of life. Females are accompanied only by their young or eventually by other females and according to the studies they seek contact with males only in their period of rut. The contact is then limited to a period of time needed for copulation. One exception to this behaviour may be couples with juvenile males. After birth, the female looks after the young male for up to 8 years, having no rut during this period. The cycle of females living in the wild also shows dependency on the availability of food supply. Negative energy balance during which the cycle stops has been observed during periods of food scarcity. In the following period with abundance of food, the cycle is renewed again. The cycle renewal also occurs in cases when the female loses her young. As a consequence of these reproductive limitations females may give birth to 4 young at maximum in their life.
Guidelines have been drawn up for breeding in zoos which regulate the conditions and suitability of the exhibits so that they meet the orangutans needs. Their natural mental and physical activity is related to their health and natural behaviour. However, despite all efforts the zoos cannot provide the same conditions to the orangutans as those they would have in the wild. The forced increased socialization and contact with other individuals held in captivity may bring stress, stereotype behaviour and associated health problems which are rather frequent with orangutans bred in captivity.
According to the records in the pedigree books, the age of first reproduction and the interval between births were shorter in case of females kept in captivity. Even the keeping of males and females in one exhibit increases the probability of copulation and becoming pregnant. These changes also entail certain risks according to the studies. Breeding in captivity embodies higher mortality rate of young and adult animals. This is probably caused by young age of females at the birth and short intervals between births which are often shorter than 4 years. Females born in captivity also lack experience which they gain in the wild by learning and observing and are not able to take care of their young or refuse it later. Even females that got pregnant between the age of 11 and 14 have been described. However, such pregnancy poses a great risk for females and they die soon after birth or live much shorter. Young orangutans born in captivity were often taken away from their mothers. It is not very suitable on the one side, but on the other side, after having their young taken away from them, the females started a new, full-fledged cycle in a few weeks and could become pregnant again. However, as direct care of the young by humans has a negative effect, the young are often given back to their mothers which is successful in many cases.
Orangutans have been studied for more than 40 years and a lot of things concerning their breeding in captivity have changed during this time. Zoological gardens are trying to provide the orangutans as natural conditions as possible. It is necessary for the exhibits and the enrichment to provide enough physical and mental activities to the orangutans. Despite these efforts, the limited space and the related contacts between individuals may bring stressful situations. These are then manifested in the behaviour and health of the orangutans.
