Zachoval, Jakub ; Malá, Michaela (advisor) ; Pavlová, Ilona (referee)
Name: Effectivness of Basic Life Support in Children Provided by Wheelchair Users Objectives: The aim of this diploma thesis is to evaluate the effectiveness of elementary emergency resuscitation children under 1yr of age with three selected positions of resuscitation manikin in persons using a wheelchair for their movement. Based on the comparison of the results when positioning the manikin on a lap, on a mat and on the ground, aim is to evaluate the most suitable position for performing elementary emergency resuscitation. Method: The research group consisted of ten people with spinal cord injury (four with tetraplegia and six with paraplegia), who use wheelchair for their movement. Three methods of data collection were used in this work. A survey was used for the first method, which obtained anamnestic data of the research group. The second method of data collection was the observation of probands during first aid. The third selected method was a measurement using a SimPad SkillReporter and a Resusci Baby QCPR resuscitation manikin. The measurement was used to evaluate the effectiveness of elementary emergency resuscitation of children for five minutes in three selected positions. Results: Based on observations and measurements, it was found that all probands are able to lift and manipulate a...

Name: First aid provided by persons after spine and spinal cord injury The aim of the work: The aim of my bachelor thesis is to find out the practical possibilities of first aid in people after spine and spinal cord injury. Next task was to find out if the people tied to a wheelchair are able to provide first aid with sufficient quality. Methodology of the work: I have used three methods of data collection. The first method to identify personal history and basic theoretical knowledge in monitored group was an survey inquiry. The second method was an uncontrolled conversation to which I found additional information. The third method of data collection was observation, where I followed the practical possibilities, procedures and first aid technique in solving selected life threatening situations in individuals. Results of the work: Based on observations, I have found that all probands are able to evaluate the state of consciousness, to pass through the airways, and are able to provide first aid for strangulation by a foreign object and stopping breathing of the child within 1 year. I also found that probes with lesion height to Th7 are able to place the adult patient in a stabilized position and, if necessary, to initiate the resuscitation of an individual who is unconscious and does not breathe...
