Leptospirosis of small animals
Pluhařová, Nikola ; Berka, Pavel (advisor) ; Martina, Martina (referee)
This bachelor thesis is focused on Leptospirosis or disease caused by bacteria Leptospira spp. At first I deal with agents of leptospirosis, its taxonomic, its individually serum groups, serovars invading dog, human and cat. My bachelor thesis also includes basic characteristic of disease leptospirosis , its expansion and presence. Next chapter is devoted to transmission of this infection. Then I follow up with pathogenesis and diagnostics, in which I allude appropriate diagnostic methods for finding this disease. At the end of my bachelor thesis I deal with theraphy, using appropriate drugs, point to options of prevention within hygiene, but vaccination too.
Infectious diseases related to floods; protection of population and of Integrated Rescue System bodies at performing clean-up works in affected regions
BRAVENEC, Roman
In the recent years, floods have been an increasingly common natural phenomenon in the territory of the Czech Republic. I have chosen the bachelor thesis about the topic ?Infection diseases in connection with floods, protection of inhabitants and IRS forces when realizing clean-up operations in disaster areas? because I have been employed with the village of Loučovice in the position of the secretary. Due to its position on the flow of the Vltava River and below the water dam LIPNO 1, the village of Loučovice is threatened with both natural and special floods; therefore, timely awareness of citizens in case of possible threat is a basic prerequisite for the realization of effective measures for the protection of lives, health and property but also for possible elimination of effects of the flood. The paper summarizes possible causes of natural and special floods, which, in addition to considerable property damages, bring health risks too. As for the findings from the areas damaged by floods, I have identified the mostly occurring infection diseases after the flood goes off. In addition to the affected inhabitants, members of the intervention forces of the Integrated Rescue System and volunteers, who participate in rescue and clean-up operations, are also exposed to the infection diseases. Furthermore, I specify the evaluation of the statistical data identified in the system EPIDAT, which is used for monitoring of the epidemiological situation in the Czech Republic. The purpose of my paper is to gather collective information for the Flood Commission at the village of Loučovice. It concerns an overview of IRS forces and roles of the territorial self-governing units and their activity at the time of an extraordinary event. The result is an up-dated list of telephone contacts, so-called crisis card, recommendations for protection of property against the impact of the flood wave, possibilities of protection of water sources and the way of emergency supplies of drinking water, which are related to the threat of contagion with infection disease.
Health risks to the area affected by flooding and measures to overcome them in the territory of the Czech Republic.
KUČEROVÁ, Andrea
The topic of my thesis called "Health risks to the area affected by flooding and measures to overcome them in the territory of the Czech Republic" I have been engaged in over the recent years affected and still affects all of us. I think this topic is actual as the Czech Republic was hit by floods several times in the past. It is still necessary to develop new measures to minimize the consequences on the lives and health of the population after the flood. In the theoretical part of my thesis, I described the most common infectious diseases associated with the consequences of floods and I was trying to point out the measures which are needed for the rescue and liquidation activities in this natural disaster. The described measures are important to minimize the infectious diseases which threaten the population. To find the practical results, I prepared the questionnaire that I gave to the random people who were involved in the floods in 2002, 2006 and 2009 in the South Bohemia and Pilsen regions. Then, I compared the results of the infectious diseases with the statistical data of the reported infectious diseases in the Czech Republic. The study tested the hypothesis whether the population at the time of the floods was duly and properly protected and informed about the health risks immediately after the flood. This hypothesis can be closed as confirmed as I was convinced that the measures were sufficient to protect the population against the health risks. I dare to say that there are no health risks during the floods, because the only one practical and theoretical knowledge talk about preparing for the evacuation due to a possible flooding.
