Maternity hospital
Kolář, Vojtěch ; Stehlík, Ondřej (referee) ; Mléčka, Jan (advisor)
A new concept of maternity hospital creates a place, where future mother is not stressed and where she feels free. A place, where birth is perceived as a common part of everyday life. It searches a compromise between birth at classical hospital environment on one side and birth at home on the other. Both aforementioned possibilities bring certain risks that are intended to be minimized using this concept. The idea is based on practice from birth facilities from Germany and creates new concept of so called „birth houses“ that is consistent with law in the Czech Republic. Design of maternity hospital should not be based solely on meeting technical requirements of a bulding, but first of all comfort of mothers should be taken into account to make them feel home.

This bachelor thesis focuses on paediatric nurses´ and mothers´ perspective on the comfort and the safety ensurement of the newborn and the infant, furthermore focuses on the education of mothers provided in this field by the paediatric nurse and on the way by which comfort and safety of the newborn and the infant is ensured by the mother in the home environment. Four objectives were set in the bachelor thesis. The first objective was to describe the perspective of pediatric nurses on ensuring comfort and safety in newborns and infants. The second objective was to determine the way how to educate mothers in the field of providing comfort and safety to newborns and infants. The third objective was to describe the mothers' perspective on ensuring comfort and safety of newborns and infants and the last objective chosen was to find out the method of ensuring comfort and safety of newborns and infants by mothers in the home environment. The theoretical part of the bachelor thesis defines the concepts of the neonatal and the infant period, and follows up basic human needs, particularly the need of security and safety and the need of love and together belonging. The theoretical part also describes possibilities of comfort and safety ensurement of newborns and infants, such as skin to skin contact, bonding, newborn bathing including skin care, proper handling, safe sleep, and finally the use of baby massage, aromatherapy and swaddling. The research part of the thesis was based on qualitative survey, using an interview method. The data collection was done using in-depth interview technique with pediatric nurses and mothers of newborns and infants. Data analysis was done using pencil paper method. Subsequently, categories of in-depth interviews were created separately for paediatric nurses and mothers. Five categories were created for the baby nurses: Providing the Need for Security and Safety from the Baby Nurses' Perspective, The way of the Baby Nurse Education Conduct, Content of the Education, Use of Alternative Methods in the Child Care from the Baby Nurses' Perspective and Preparation for the Child Care. For mothers, five categories were also created, which include: Providing the Need of Security and Safety from the Mothers' Perspective, The Education, The Sleep, Use of Alternative Methods in the Child Care from the Mothers' Perspective, and The Layette Set. Corresponding sub-categories were then created for the categories. The research revealed that paediatric nurses just as mothers had the same perspective on providing comfort and security for the newborn and infant. They agreed that it is necessary that mother and baby are to be in constant contact, including cuddling, caressing and talking to the baby, generally speaking to be the loving mother. The research survey also showed us that mothers are not sufficiently educated in the area of handling the newborn and infant and in safe sleeping. Based on the results of the research, two educational leaflets were developed containing the principles of proper handling and safe sleep for newborn and infant.

Procedural Pain Relief in Premature Neonates
DUDARCOVÁ, Terezie
This Bachelor's thesis deals with the topic of procedural pain management in preterm newborns. Procedural pain is caused during medical procedures. Long-term exposure to pain has a variety of consequences, which is why it is very important to pay attention to the procedural pain prevention management. The first aim of the thesis was to explore the possibilities of assessing procedural pain in premature neonates. The second aim was to map the available methods of procedural pain management, followed by the final goal to identify the possibilities of involving mothers of premature neonates in the procedural pain prevention management. The research part of the paper was based on a qualitative investigation by means of questioning and observation. Data collection was carried out using in-depth interviews with paediatric nurses and mothers of premature neonates. Next part of the research involved observation of paediatric nurses during painful procedures. The information obtained was logged in observation sheets. Research has shown that there is currently a great effort to reduce the number of painful procedures that preterm newborns have to undergo. It was found that when evaluating procedural pain, all circumstances must be taken into account and not evaluated only according to a given scale. According to the research, the most effective of the non-pharmacological methods of pain relief is direct contact between mother and child. Pharmacological methods of pain relief are used in rare cases. It was also confirmed that there is currently a great effort to involve parents in the care of preterm newborns, but this needs to be further intensified and fathers need to be engaged more, for example. The results obtained from the research can be used in the education of paediatric nurses. An educational leaflet for mothers has also been developed.

The specifics of care for a newborn baby of a drug-addicted mother
PEKÁRKOVÁ, Barbora
The neonatal abstinence syndrom occures in newborns of addicted mothers to any kind of drug. The drugs may be soft (legal) or hard (illegal). The manifestation of neonatal abstinence syndrom is mostly of neurological symptoms, such as seizures, restlessness and tremble. The neonatal abstinence syndrom can also be manifested by gastrointestinal, respiratory and termoregulation problems. Neonatal abstinence syndrom begins to manifest within 24 to 72 hours after birth and the most conclusive examination drug testing is from newborn's meconium. The newborns are assesed by the Finnegan score and if the result is higher than eight points, the neonatal abstinence syndrome can be diagnosed. The first goal was to reveal and describe the differences in care between a newborn of a drug-addicted mother and a physiological newborn, second goal was to specify nursing problems of a newborn of a drug-addicted mother and the third goal was to concretize the role of the nurse in a care of a newborn of a drug-addicted mother. The research part of this work was processed by the qualitative research method, using semi-structured interviews. The interviews took place in june 2022. Five interviews were recorded on a recording device and three interviews were written down on a paper due to dissapproval of said nurses to record the interviews. All interviews were transcribed into Microsoft Word programme. The ATLAS.ti programme was used to analyse, code and create schemes. The data was split into parts and codes were added to the said parts. The codes were put into categories related to the research questions. Afterwards, the schemes were made from said categories and subcategories. Based on data collected from the research we can say that the most common nursing problem in a newborn with neonatal abstinence syndrom is restlessness, crying, tremor, scream, sleep deprivation, instability of temperature, gulping and vomiting. Futhermore, the analysed data showed that the role of a nurse in taking care of a newborn with NAS are mainly "nurse as a provider of nursing care" and "nurse as a educator". The main differences in care between the newborn of a drug-addicted mother and a physiological newborn are in nutrition, contact with mother, when it also depends on her presence and the condition of the baby, in participation of other profesionals. There are hardly any differences in education, but it also depends on the condition of a baby and its needs. In conclusion, the most common nursing problems in a baby with neonatal abstinence syndrom are neurological problems, following the problems with sleep, temperature and nutrition. The nurse is mainly in a role of a nurse educator and provider of a nursing care. The differences in care between the baby with NAS and the physiological baby depend on the presence of its mother, the condition of the baby and its gestational age. The differences are mostly in nutrition and the participation of profesionals, for example the child protect services. The results of this research can be used in improving the quality of care for newborns with NAS, in an education of the future pediatric nurses in Pediatric nursing study programme and in further education of pediatric nurses in NAS in hospital through lectures.
