Electronic versus writen form of nursing documentation - the wiews and preferences of nurses.
KOMARDINOVÁ, Petra
Abstract This bachelor thesis deals with nursing documentation in electronic and paper forms. Nursing documentation is a part of medical documentation and it is regulated by the same rules. It consists of records about nursing activities performed in respect to the patient. It also contains nursing case history, evaluation of the care of the patient, records about the patient´s condition, discharge and relocation reports and other documents, such as pain scales, Barthel index, Glasgow coma scale, records on bedsores, intake and excretion of liquids, monitoring of vital functions, Norton scale or records about wound treatment. To ensure a quality care of a patient it is very important to keep uniform nursing documentation. The bachelor thesis had four objectives. The first objective was to survey nurses´ opinions of individual types of nursing documentation. The second objective was to find out which type of nursing documentation is preferred by nurses and whether they prefer nursing documentation in paper or electronic form. The third objective was to define the form of nursing documentation used by the surveyed medical facilities. The last objective was to identify problems encountered in the course of introduction of electronic nursing documentation. To achieve those objectives I approached respondents from two medical facilities. Seven respondents answered questions in one-to-one interviews in the retirement home Máj in České Budějovice and the same number of respondents answered questions in one-to-one interviews in the Hospital České Budějovice a.s. The collection of qualitative data consisted in the individual nature of the interviews with the respondents. After the processing the data have shown that respondents from the retirement home Máj expressed their complete satisfaction with the nursing documentation in electronic form. The respondents from the Hospital in České Budějovice preferred nursing documentation on paper, however, they believed that the documentation should be modified. Some of them were interested in trying nursing documentation in electronic form. The results of the bachelor thesis have shown different opinions of the nursing documentation among the respondents. The conclusions from the research may play a key role in decision-making about the introduction of a new documentation or improvement of the already well-established nursing documentation in medical facilities.

Hrušková, Jana ; Liška, Petr (referee) ; Patěk, Daniel (advisor)
in English Default of time in business transactions and its consequences The topic of a default of time in business transacions becomes very current in our society, which is one of the reasons I have chosen this topic for my diploma thesis. The objective of my work is to define the conditions due to which the debtor or creditor get in the default of ime and explain the consequences of the default of time of one of the contractual parties. In the thesis I shall focus primarily on the definition of the period for performance of the debtor's obligation, because definition of this matter in the Commercial Code is currently quite difficult to interpret and I shall bring attention to certain problems of the legislation related to the treatment of the consequences of the default of time by any of the parties. I would like to pay more attention to the default of time payment interests, as these are the most typical result of the debtor's default of time. My diploma thesis is divided into nine chapters. The first chapter is the introduction defining the objective of my thesis. The second chapter is called the "Default of time in Business Relationships" and specifies the term "default of time". The default of time become when one of the parties, a debtor or a creditor, is in a default of time with performance...

Optimization of Hemodynamics of Trauma Patients in Intensive Care Using Transesophageal Doppler Monitoring
Pradl, Richard ; Chytra, Ivan (advisor) ; Málek, Jiří (referee) ; Šrámek, Vladimír (referee)
Esophageal Doppler was confirmed as a useful non-invasive tool for management of fluid replacement in elective surgery. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of early optimization of intravascular volume using esophageal Doppler on blood lactate levels and organ dysfunction development in comparison with standard hemodynamic management in multiple-trauma patients. This was a randomized controlled trial. Multiple-trauma patients with blood loss of more than 2,000 ml admitted to the intensive care unit (1CU) were randomly assigned to the protocol group with esophageal Doppler monitoring and to the control group. Fluid resuscitation in the Doppler group was guided for the first 12 hours of ICU stay according to the protocol based on data obtained by esophageal Doppler, whereas control patients were managed conventionally. Blood lactate levels and organ dysfunction during ICU stay were evaluated. Eighty patients were randomly assigned to Doppler and 82 patients to control treatment. The Doppler group received more intravenous colloid during the first 12 hours of ICU stay (1,667±426 ml versus 682±322 ml; p < 0,0001), and blood lactate levels in the Doppler group were lower after 12 and 24 hours of treatment than in the control group (2,92±0,54 mmol/1 versus 3,23±0,54 mmol/1 [p = 0,0003] and 1,99±0,44...

A dream shared: community and politics in selected 19th and 20th century American utopias
Kounovská, Kateřina ; Robbins, David Lee (referee) ; Veselá, Pavla (advisor)
The tendency to dream of a better tomorrow, a better society and a better world had existed long before utopian writing was defined by Sir. Thomas More in 1516. Utopian ideas are present all throughout history, from Greek and Roman literature, myths and mythology, various festivals or the "Cokaygne" utopias to religious paradise, the belief in infinite progress, utopian science fiction and finally the modern western utopia. This thesis will focus on four selected American literary utopias: Edward Bellamy's Looking Backward: 2000-1887, Jack London's Iron Heel, Ernest Callenbach's Ecotopia and Marge Piercy's Woman on the Edge of Time. It seeks to analyze the social notions inherent in the four ideal utopian societies portrayed in these novels, the suggested process of social and historical change leading up to them and to note the development of selected social issues in the nineteenth and the twentieth century through the discussion of these works. The introduction will begin with a brief discussion of the background of utopian writing, include arguments for perceiving the institution of an artist as a cultural force, as well as include the historical and cultural background necessary for the discussion of the novels. Chapters two to five will deal with the proposed literature in a more concrete manner,...

A lawmaker for life. Czech members of the Austrian House of Peers (1879-1918) between politics and prestige
Pavlíček, Tomáš ; Velek, Luboš (advisor) ; Galandauer, Jan (referee)
The author of this paper researches a subject new to Czech historiography - that of Czech life peers in the Austrian parliament between 1879 - 1918. He attempts to do it not only on the level of archive research, but also parliamentarism (the idea, foundation and operation of the House of Peers), political strategies (nominating candidates for peers), social stratification (social classes represented), social promotion (acquiring symbolic capital), political culture (perception of politics and the position of the peers by themselves and the society), and methodology. The author asks the question of what approach to choose for the research of the peers' lifestyle and their parliamentary identities. The latter differed from the political thinking and political behaviour of the members of the lower house in the following respects: less active up to completely uninvolved parliamentary career, apolitical activity in one's own occupation, office and one's own nation, appreciation of the individual's career and his merits to the society by being awarded an order, becoming a nobleman, and gaining political power in the form of the peer's prestige. Attention is drawn to the introduction of the general, equal and direct voting rights in Cisleithania in 1906, which remarkably increased the House of Peers' political...

Importance of "electronic portal imaging" at modification of the iradiation position
BÁRTOVÁ, Lucie
For treatment in radiotherapy was a largely progress introduction new technology and verification device. Portal imaging is the acquisition of images with a radiotherapy beam. Imaging theory suggests that the quality of portal images could be much higher if the efficiency of the imaging media in detecting radiation could be improved. Introduction of new media (films and electronic portal imaging devices) has confirmed this by markedly increasing the quality of portal images. Images from these devices can then be used to verify a patient's treatment. New technology performs alternative quality and correct imaging in radiotherapy; it makes possibility for improving patient health care.

Diabetes mellitus treatment and its effect on development of fetus
Ritschelová, Vlasta ; Jelínek, Richard (advisor)
The introduction of new drugs into medical practice is nowadays a common phenomenon and desirable . New drugs offer new treatment options , replace old , less safe for both patient and the developing fetus , replace or non-pharmacological methods are appropriately other. The introduction of such new drugs, however, is preceded by extensive testing of the drug with respect the possibility of the occurrence of various side effects . These can be from completely insignificant to after very serious. This work is focused on the serious side effect ie effect embryotoxic . This means that the drug in doses to the mother nontoxic some mechanism intervenes in the process of development of the fetus and the substance is due to death or damaged. This work is devoted to detect possible embryotoxicity - insulin lispro , a of these drugs for the treatment of diabetes mellitus , as knowledge of its effect on developing fetus are not only scanty . Embryotoxicity testing was carried out by CHEST ( Chick Embryotoxicity Screening Test) , which is in this part of the work described in detail. Thank you for the important help in implementing and evaluating the results of the methods of CHEST prof . MD . R. Jelinek , MD . , I. Jelinek , MD. E. Manakov , MD. M.Špačkovi and MD .
