MLEJNKOVÁ, Natálie
The topic of this diploma thesis is "Influence of footwear on foot deformities in women - the role of nurses in prevention". The theoretical part is devoted to the foot anatomy, it describes the issue of heels on the foot and represents the Giraffe certification. The practical part of the qualitative research shows the role of nurses in preventing foot deformities for patients. This thesis has two goals. To find out what footwear affects the deformities of the legs in women and to find out what role the nurse plays in preventing this issue. The research questions are 1. What is the importance of wearing high-heeled shoes for women and how will this be reflected later? 2. What role do nurses attribute to the prevention in this issue? Data collection was collected by semi-structured interviews with nurses in the orthopaedic ward and orthopaedic clinics. The research sample consists of 20 respondents, the choice was deliberate and formed by snowball sampling. In February 2019, data was collected, which was subsequently terminated at the moment of theoretical saturation. The interview covered themes: wearing high-heeled shoes, leg deformities caused by high-heeled shoes, nurse-led prevention and education. The results show that only a fraction of nurses adhere to the role of a nurse who helps patients prevent leg deformities. The rest of the nurses leave prevention and education to doctors. This diploma thesis presents as a work output a poster, which can be an information material for nurses from the orthopaedic clinics and beds. The output of the thesis is an educational poster that will reflect the entire nursing issue in prevention (the role of a nurse, the deformity of the feet caused by high-heeled shoes, etc.).

In which areas do nurses working at the infection ward care for their mental hygiene? The data collection took place in the form of semi-structured interviews that were conducted with nurses from the infectious ward in two hospitals. The research file consists of 20 respondents, their choice was intentional and took place using the method of snowball sampling. The data collection took place in the period of April and May 2016 and was finished at the time of theoretical saturation. The topics of the interview were: mental hygiene, lifestyle, eating, relaxation and rest, stress and interpersonal relationships. A total of 11 major categories were processed, each subcategory belonging to each category, and codes were created for each subcategory. It can be seen from the results that all nurses are sufficiently theoretically oriented by mental hygiene, healthy lifestyle and eating, but not every nurse cares well for her mental health.. The output of this thesis is information material, which is intended not only for the professional but also for the non-professional public.
