Saturation of psychosocial needs of patients hospitalized in surgical wards
KOHOUTOVÁ, Miroslava
According to a holistic approach, the health care team should focus on the entire bio-psycho-social aspects of the patient and not just on saturation of physiological needs. The diploma thesis deals with the issue of fulfilling psychosocial needs of patients hospitalized in surgical wards. The basic of patient care represents the nursing process, which enables general nurses to obtain important information about patients and leads to improve nursing care. The theoretical part of the diploma thesis describes the basics of the field of surgery and specifies the psychosocial needs. The practical part describes methodology and results of the research. The aim of the study was to evaluate the saturation of psychosocial needs of patients hospitalized in the surgical department. There were determined two research questions: What kind of role performs the patient, his family and the health care team in saturation of psychosocial needs. And what kind of factors affect the saturation of the needs of the patient hospitalized in the surgical department. A qualitative research method with semi-structured interview with patients was used to achieve the goal. The research concludes, that in the most cases, patients are afraid of the operation and moreover the need for safety and security is impaired. This situation can be reduced by the health care team, who should provide comprehensive information to patients about their disease. Moreover, the staff should apprize patients with the environment, other circumstances about the operation, postoperative care and subsequent convalescence to reduce the fear. Furthermore, it is important that the behavior, support, helpfulness and trust in the hospital staff can help to saturate other needs. The health care staff contributes to promote the need for recognition and respect for the patient's intimacy and privacy. The love and belongingness need can be fully saturated by a well-functioning family that forms self-esteem and motivates its member, expresses support, economic need, protection and saturation of social needs. Motivation leads the patient to saturate the need for self-actualization and gives him the strength to overcome obstacles. Pain accompanies every illness and disturbs the saturation of other needs, so it is necessary to minimize the pain. The area of saturation of spiritual needs is still perceived as a sensitive topic. Each patient is unique, has different needs, and therefore everyone should be approached individually to identify and saturate his specific needs.

GREGOROVÁ, Jana
For a person stoma means change both in the health as well as psychosocial area. It is necessary to perceive the person as a bio-psycho-socially-spiritual being requiring satisfaction of all his/her needs. Shortage of satisfaction of psychosocial needs can have very serious impacts on the overall health condition of the client. Stoma nurses and stoma clubs significantly contribute to satisfaction of needs. Stoma nurses deal not only with a preoperative, postoperative care for stoma suffering people, their education but they also help them to solve problems, which occurred in connection with stoma, answer their questions and are their consultants and support. Stoma nurses are a great benefit for stoma suffering people and their families. Stoma clubs are voluntary associations where people suffering stoma meet. Their task is to defend the interests and rights of stoma suffering people, organise meetings, special seminars, cultural events and stays. Versatile activity of the clubs is involved in client?s stoma adaptation, improvement of his/her life and making satisfaction of psychosocial needs easier. The target of the Diploma Thesis was to find out the most frequent psychosocial problems of stoma patients and whether stoma stresses more ileostoma patients than colostomy ones. Targets of the thesis were met. There were defined five hypotheses for the targets. First hypothesis dealt with the question, whether stoma patients suffer lack of satisfaction of psychosocial needs. Second hypothesis analysed, whether stoma disturbed partner life of the stoma patient. Third hypothesis analysed, whether stoma nurses bring benefit to a stoma patient and the fourth one, whether stoma clubs are beneficial for a stoma patient. These hypotheses were proved. The fifth hypothesis analysed, whether stoma stresses more ileostoma than colostomy patients. This hypothesis was not proved. To collect data I used the form of quantitative research using non-standardised questionnaire for people suffering ileostoma and colostomy. This Diploma Thesis shall point out the necessity of satisfaction of psychosocial needs of stoma patients in practice.

Application of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in nursing care for patients suffering from sensorineural hearing impairment
VOKURKOVÁ, Gabriela
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a treatment method using the effect of oxygen inhaled under increased atmospheric pressure. This leads not only to a complete saturation of hemoglobin by oxygen but also to an important increase of oxygen dissolved in plasma. The oxygen dissolved in body fluids is able to ensure the basal metabolic rate of hypotoxic tissue. Auricular medicine applies hyperbaric oxygen therapy to treatment of hearing impairment and tinnitus. Sensorineural hearing impairments, i e. impairments caused by disfunctions in the inner ear, can be treated by HBO. Acute, sudden sensorineural hearing impairments are indicated for HBO treatment. Patients with an impairment of the inner ear of lesser extent and impact have a greater chance to be treated by HBO successfully. The paper aimed at determining whether the HBO treatment is more effective than the common medicamentous therapy for the sensorineural hearing impairment. The following hypotheses were set for the research survey. H1: By means of HBO treatment sensorineural hearing impairment can be improved. H2: HBO treatment is more effective than common medicamentous therapy for sensorineural hearing impairment. H3: HBO treatment reduces tinnitus in sensorineural hearing impairment more frequently than medicamentous treatment. H4: Nurses know the principles of nursing care for patients undergoing HBO treatment. H5: Patients undergoing HBO treatment have sufficient information on safety measures. All set hypotheses have been confirmed and the goal of the paper has been fulfilled. The research survey was successful and much interesting information was received that is to be used to improve the care for patients, especially in co-operation with ULZ Praha (Institute of aviation medicine), that is interested in the results of the research survey in order to to apply them in its practice.
