History of medical emergency services in the Czech Republic
Závadová, Irena ; Kulhavá, Miluše (advisor) ; Jankovcová, Kateřina (referee)
The work focuses on a historical development of the institute of emergency services as coordinated activities, including development of the personnel and materially-technical provision, legal anchoring and development of field prestige, including the latter-day prestige, with a focus on the territory of the Czech Republic. Therefore, the aim was therefore to map out each period in terms of providing coordinated emergency activities, describe their legal definition in time and record the personnel and materially-technical equipment. Qualitative research investigation using historical analysis together with a study of historical sources, including quantitative survey research for objectification of the data obtained from a questionnaire survey, mapping public opinion not only to the prestige of the field itself, but also through questions corresponding with this area was used for identification of the aforementioned objectives. The work shows a summary of events set in a historical framework, leading to foundation of the first emergency and rescue service facilities, including their further development. From this point of view, it presents not only the individual periods, but also the providers of these activities. It presents development of the legal definition of emergency services as well as...

Analysis of factors affecting the physical attacks on crews of emergency medical services
KLEINOVÁ, Natálie
This bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of the circumstances affecting physical assaults of medical emergency service (EMS) crews. Three objectives have been established. The first objective was to compare the frequency of physical and verbal assaults among the respondents. The second objective was to map out the most common causes of physical assaults of the EMS crews and the third objective was to map out the respondents' knowledge of self-defence. Three research questions were established along with these three objectives. The entire work is divided into a theoretical part and a practical part. In the theoretical part, I focused on the explanation of basic concepts relating to aggression, aggressive individuals and known forms of aggressive behavior. Furthermore, I addressed chapters such as the causes of aggressive behavior, which I split into several groups. Then I also tried to describe the principle of an assault. An important chapter is the rules of communication and negotiation with an aggressive person, what should crew members pay attention to, and also what to avoid. In this chapter, I describe the differences of communication with selected types of aggressive individuals. The conclusion describes the options of pacifying aggressive persons and legal self-defence. The research part consists of the processed results of the questionnaires filled out by EMS crew members of South Bohemian and Moravian-Silesian region, 52 of them in total. The other part consists of the results of the semi-structured interviews provided to me by 4 paramedics working in Moravian-Silesian region. The aim was to choose such respondents who came across assaults, whether verbal or physical. In the case of the interviews, the only respondents were those who had experienced physical assault. The extent of practice the respondents have is ranging from a few years to tens of years. The questionnaires were filled out by drivers, paramedics and doctors, working at the EMS. The results of the questionnaires were recorded in graphs and the results of the interviews were summarized.

Managing transformation of asset management using bar codes at the Emergency Medical Service
Spurný, Martin ; Hradcová, Dana (advisor) ; Mathauser, Radek (referee)
1 ABSTRACT As the capital of Prague gradually expanded, both in population and area, Emergency Medical Service of Prague (EMSP) had to grow accordingly. Rescue Teams of EMSP are currently located in 18 stations throughout the territory of Prague. The high number of Rescue Teams groups poses a major challenge to technical - physical operation. One of the areas where the need for changes has been identified, is the asset management. The current system is inadequate and unable to respond flexibly to frequent changes in the asset register. Large number of emergency stations, which are located over a large area and include ambulance cars, triggered the need for rapid search and registration of fixed assets, so the whole process would be as efficient as possible and would not hinder the operation of Rescue Teams. Therefore the registration of property by means of barcodes was launched. During inspections and changes in records or registration of new assets, the operation in records is carried out quickly and efficiently using mobile terminals with a bar code reader, which is actually a small computer. The aim of this paper is to describe management of changes in property records using bar codes at the Medical Emergency Service of Prague. This change in the process of property registration will reduce the time,...

Emergency Operators´ Mental Load
HUDEČKOVÁ, Karolína
This bachelor thesis deals with mental strain in dispatchers of medical emergency services. I focused on covering these questions, the follow-up analysis and description, on the basis of research. The first objective was to survey opinions of operations centre dispatchers of the mental strain in their work. The next objective was their opinion of the question whether the number of dispatchers on duty in one shift influences their mental strain. My research is based on questionnaire surveying, and the research object covered 40 employees in operational centres all over the Region of South Bohemia. (Note: a nationwide research would be technically hardly realisable, as it is improbable that the questionnaires sent in would be returned). The introductory chapters contain a brief description of the operations centre and activities that the dispatchers perform every day, and I try to formulate the principles of the correct communication that should be led in the conversation with the callers on the distress line. I also describe general features of stress, the factors that lead to it, and the states breaking out as a result of its long-term effect on people. Specifically in this thesis, I describe post-traumatic stress disorder and the burn-out syndrome, and I also mention prevention to defend oneself against these risk factors. The second part of the thesis focuses on the results of the research conducted by quantitative technique, by handing out 45 questionnaires, 40 of which were processed after they were sent back. The research and results make up an essential part of the thesis and bring proofs of the fact that employees of operations centres undergo mental strain influenced by a number of factors. Some of these factors can be influenced, and becoming aware of these factors, this strain may be at least partially reduced. The thesis also uses the comparative method with the possibility of comparison of the mental strain between individual dispatchers. Last but not least, it contains inspiration for considering these questions, and personal proposals for a positive contribution to lowering this strain and a further development of this problem in general.

Capacities rescue teams - EMS- in time
BOŽOVSKÁ, Petra
In my bachelor work I dealt with problems of medical rescue service and its medical emergency service rescue groups and with emergency rescue help and times within which members of these rescue services make their activity. Medical rescue service provides affected people with a professional pre-clinical urgent care where they were injured or where a sudden disorder happened. All this happen during their transport to other professional treatment and also during their forwarding to a health service. Members of rescue services provide affected people with pre-clinical urgent care. Members of rescue services of medical emergency service are a group of emergency medical help (EMH), medical emergency service (MES) and a group of air rescue service (ARS). The system of medical rescue service is made on the principle of a sequence and refilling possibilities of particular levels providing urgent pre-clinical care and on the principle of an organization of medical rescue service in a way so that the accessability of pre-clinical urgent care and its providing within 15 minutes from receiving emergency call except for the cases worthy special respect is ensured. The rescue system on the level of districts should be able to treat 50 affected people (in county boroughs up to 150 people) at the liquidation of consequences of exceptional events with a rise of mass medical casualties.
