HAVLÍČKOVÁ, Silvie
The focus of this bachelor work is to stroke, its impact on individuals and families. This topic is relevant. CMP is one of the most common causes of death and disability in the Czech Republic and worldwide. CMP is not a matter only of the individual but also his entire family. The theoretical part of the thesis is divided into nine basic categories. The first circuit characterizes and divides the typology, describes the symptoms and examination methods CMP. In the second circuit we learn how to recognize stroke and first aid in the development of stroke. Third circuit includes the risk factors that may be controllable and uncontrollable. The following ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke (here are described the types CMP). Other circuits are CMP impacts (impacts are fundamentally different, so it is important to their description), family and CMP (important is family involvement in care and the impacts associated with the position of careers), rehabilitation after stroke (focusing more resources on social rehabilitation) and forms social assistance (which are the most common forms of assistance). The aim of this thesis is to determine as stroke affected social interaction in the family. A partial goal is to find out what are the possibilities of social assistance. Depending on the objectives set by the two research questions. The main research question is: How have social interaction within the family changed after a stroke? Partial research task asks how welfare assistance was realized in the family. Qualitative research was chosen in the thesis. When data collection method was used interviews and semi-structured interview technique. The sample consisted of 5 respondents who had stroke and his family was willing to cooperate in collecting data. Respondents were selected target (intentional) choice. When evaluating the quality of the data was carried out by cluster. The results are organized into two blocks. The first section concerns subjective opinion of an individual to experience a stroke. Results are for greater clarity divided into circuits. The first circuit includes demographic data of respondents and their lifestyle before going through the CMP. The following circuit shows the risk factors that influence the emergence of a stroke. Other circuits have dealt with CMP and its impacts, the use of components of comprehensive rehabilitation, assistance from family, communications, public relations, social impacts and the situation at present. The second part deals with the subjective opinions of family members on the situation of the family after suffering stroke. Circuits with family members are divided on adoption diseases affected; the financial decline in the family, careers isolation from society and family, whether they were given the necessary information about the CMP. The research implies that the respondents' lack of awareness of the consequences of risk factors that may be the cause of stroke. None of the clients did not know about the causes (risk factors) CMP. Only in case of two clients there was a consensus that they knew about the mortality associated with going through the CMP. Other respondents did not know that their lifestyle and some diseases lead to stroke. The research showed that 4 clients do not know about the use of social services for the issue, but also showed that 3 family members and some respondents were given the necessary information from the staff of many medical and social institutions. All respondents used at least two components of comprehensive rehabilitation. In addition, respondents agreed that assistance from family was very good. Intended use of the acquired knowledge of the thesis will be to utilize as resource for individuals and families after stroke and also for professional and the general public.
