KŘIVKOVÁ, Lucie
Inflammatory gynaecological disorders are one of the most frequent causes of a visit in the gynaecologist?s surgery. Origination of this intimate and unpleasant problem can be attributed to a number of factors. One of them may be the impact of incorrect hygienic habits. Every female adolescent should know how to prevent such disorders. This means to be acquainted with the correct hygiene of the secret parts of the body and the menstrual hygiene, the hygiene of clothing, the protection concerning sexual intercourse, and to be aware of the importance of prophylactic gynaecologic examination. The theoretical part of the thesis focuses on inflammatory gynaecological disorders, prevention thereof and education of female adolescents concerning prevention. The practical part focuses on discovering the female adolescents´ knowledge of the correct hygiene and its importance for prevention of inflammatory gynaecological disorders at the selected secondary schools and vocational schools of the Region of South Bohemia. The research data were acquired by means of quantitative survey based on the use of questionnaires. The questionnaire was anonymous and intended for female adolescents of the 15-18 age group. The questionnaires were distributed at Stredni zdravotnicka a vyssi odborna skola (secondary school of nursing and college of nursing) to female students specializing in the field of Medical Assistance, at the Czech-Anglo High School, Soukroma stredni skola a jazykova skola s pravem Statni jazykove zkousky (private secondary school and language school with the right to organize the (Czech) state language examinations) to female students specializing in the field of Hair Stylist and Stredni skola obchodni (secondary school of business) to female students specializing in the field of Shop Assistant. One goal and four hypotheses were set. The goal was to discover the level of knowledge of the correct hygiene and its importance for prevention of inflammatory gynaecological disorders among female students of the selected secondary schools and vocational schools in the Region of South Bohemia. The set goal has been achieved. The only proven hypothesis was No. 2 saying: "The female adolescents know that promiscuity is a risk factor contributing to the occurrence of inflammatory gynaecological disorders". What has not been proven was the hypothesis that female adolescents know the principles of the correct hygiene of the secret parts of the body, the correct menstrual hygiene, and that female students at secondary medical schools have better knowledge in the area of hygiene than female students of the other secondary schools. This bachelor´s thesis could be used as educational and information material intended for secondary as well as college students. The information leaflet, which is the output of the thesis, can serve as information material for female students of secondary schools and secondary vocational schools.
