Impact of education on clients with leukemia.
DAVIDOVÁ, Adéla
The theoretical part of my bachelor thesis is focused on the description and characteristics of leukaemia, its diagnostics and treatment. Further, the theoretical part is focused on nursing care of clients suffering from leukaemia and meeting their bio-psycho-social needs. Last but not least, it deals with communication and the education process concerning leukaemia. The practical part of my bachelor thesis aims to find out the manner in which education is provided, the fields of the education conducted and how much clients suffering from leukaemia are contented with the education provided. To obtain data and process them, I used a qualitative research survey and the method of the semi-structured interview. I carried out anonymous interviews with two groups of respondents. The first group consisted of nurses working in a clinical haematology department, and the other were clients hospitalised in this department - clients with diagnosed leukaemia. The information that I obtained may help to improve communication between medical staff members and their clients, to improve the education of clients suffering from leukaemia, and, thanks to the correctly conducted education, to make dealing with the disease easier.

Adhering to the treatment regimen in a patient with asthma {--} the role of a nurse
HRBKOVÁ, Jana
Adhering to the treatment regimen in a patient with asthma {--} the role of a nurse Asthma bronchiale is one of the diseases affecting a significant portion of the world population. It is estimated that 300 million people suffer from this disease on our planet. In economically developed countries asthma bronchiale is one of the most frequent chronic diseases with the prevalence of 10-15 %. The asthma prevalence and the prevalence of sensibilization against various allergens is increasing mainly in young population aged 6 to 7. The estimated prevalence in the Czech Republic is 8 %. Asthma represents considerable medical, social and economic stress for the patient, for his (her) family, but also for the whole society, from the viewpoint of absence from work or from school and also from the viewpoint of direct expenditures of the treatment and preventive care. Despite the fact that asthma currently remains a life-long incurable disease, it is a disease the symptoms of which may be mitigated. It is very important to adhere to the treatment regimen because this influences the course of the disease. The objectives of my thesis was to find out if patients follow the treatment regimen, if nurses educate patients and in what way. Three hypotheses were set: H I: patients do not follow the treatment regimen, H II: nurses educate patients to follow the treatment regimen, H III: the most frequent way how nurses educate patients is passing over information materials. The questionnaire method was used to achieve the objectives. The research set was formed by 60 respondents who were given out the questionnaires by a nurse. The data analysis shows that: H I {--} patients do not follow the treatment regimen {--} was rejected, H II {--} nurses educate patients to follow the treatment regimen {--} was confirmed and H III {--} the most frequent way how nurses educate patients is passing over information materials {--} was rejected. The results of my research show that patients are given enough information concerning their disease. Most of the patients follow the treatment regimen. But there are still reserves in nurses´ involvement in patients with asthma education.

Care for the oral cavity in a hospitalized patient
CINCIALOVÁ, Kateřina
The term oral hygiene includes a set of measures to prevent the origination of parodont and hard tissues and their progression. These ailments belong to the most common and frequent ones despite the fact they may be prevented by appropriate care and by the proper choice of oral hygiene aids. The most frequent problems are dental decay, dental plaque, gum disease. For each of us, good oral hygiene practicing daily is essential for preventing troubles mentioned above. During hospitalization patients often alter their habits and modes because of the disease and the stay out of home. In patients who are not self-administering and patients with limited capabilities it is the nurse who is in charge of providing the oral hygiene. Each nurse´s priority should be to meet all the patient´s needs and the proper oral hygiene is one the basic ones. I set four aims in my thesis. The first was to find out patients´view of the oral hygiene level at hospitalization. The second aim was to describe the standards of oral hygiene the particular ward offers the patients. The third aim was to compare opinions of self-administering and non self-administering patients. The fourth aim was to compare the role of a nurse in providing oral hygiene for self-administering and non self-administerin patients. The results of my research confirm the first hypothesis {--} hospitalization brings about changes in oral hygiene. Also the second hypothesis proved to be right {--} during hospitalization oral hygiene worsens in patients because they do not have enough possibilities to carry out all the procedures they are used to. The third hypothesis was confirmed, too. Nurses are familiar with oral hygiene aids and know how to use them. The fourth hypothesis that nurses do not ask patients to tell them what their oral hygiene habits are was true. I conducted the research by the questionnaire method and the method of a stuctured interview. The research samples were nurses and patients in following units - neurological, internal, surgical and orthopaedic - in the České Budějovice hospital, Inc. and in the Tábor hospital. Inc. The results of this research could be used as a feedback for hospital management to help improve patients´oral hygiene. It is necessary to take some measures in this respect. Nurses should be more active in getting information about patients´ oral hygiene aids and their hygienic habits. They should ensure the highest patients´comfort possible. Then their efforts will be rewarding.

The Public Attitude towards Preventive Oncology Examinations
KAULICHOVÁ, Markéta
The Public Attitude towards Preventive Oncology Examinations The object of this paper is to find out how laic and health professional public uses the potential of preventive oncology examinations and to uncover the barriers in use of these programs from the point of view of the laic and professional public. The public attitude towards preventive oncology examinations is more important these days as the incidence of oncology diseases is growing. Prevention is considered the principal in modern medicine, also from an economic point of view. The attitude of society towards its health is one of problematic public health areas, the attitude of self-responsibility and the underestimated meaning of primary prevention. Moreover, there is a psychological problem related to oncological diseases: the fear of positive findings and the fear of the disease itself which is traditionally connected with incurability, cruel pain and inevitable death. This notion is no longer true. A dictatorial doctor{\crq}s approach to patients in the past has been replaced with cooperative and more equal relation, where the patient takes part in decision making. However, doctors are too busy to find the proper way and proper extent of informing the patient or these doctors often underestimate the importance of a good way of giving this kind of information. This thesis presents current preventive care offered in the Czech Republic and it shows the negative bias towards cancer which is a stumbling block to a more successful fight against oncology diseases. This research was undertaken amongst laic and health public. Quantitative data collection was used in the form of questionnaires. The research file is made up of men and women over 18 years, with or without health occupation. The hypothesis was not proven that laic public use preventive oncology examinations more than health public. The laics use these programs less mostly due to lack of awareness about them. One of the most common obstacles in using preventive programs is the misunderstanding of prevention itself, when people contact a doctor only when they have problems. The results have also shown that laics are not satisfied with the activity of doctors in informing them and that laic public search for information is done less actively. This thesis can be used as a foundation for further discussion about problems of informing the public about preventive programs and for future education of health personnel within oncology matters.

The use of social and health services for people with multiple sclerosis
KAŠPAROVÁ, Eva
Multiple sclerosis cerebrospinal is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system which leads to demyelination of nerve fibres or to their direct loss. Multiple sclerosis is the most common neurological cause of chronic disability in young adults. There is no known effective cure for this disease. It is only possible to reduce the progression rate of the disease by recently available medication and their combinations. Social and health services bring significant benefit to life of people with multiple sclerosis. Health services are important not only for medical treatment but also for support because they try to improve or preserve physical condition and affect also mental condition. Social services become more important as the disease progresses when people are no longer able to cope with routine everyday activities. The objective of my thesis was to suggest suitable health and social services for people with multiple sclerosis. Furthermore, to find out which of these services are used by ill people. The hypothesis of the thesis was: Some types of social services for people with multiple sclerosis are not quantitatively provided unlike health services. In my thesis I used quantitative research, interviewing and the questionnaire method. Questionnaires were filled in by adults with multiple sclerosis in selected organisations {\clqq}Roska`` in the Czech republic. During the research I discovered problems with insufficient awareness of social services and not using contributions and allowances for social services. On the contrary, the results of the research imply that health services are being used. I assume that the hypothesis was confirmed. I find the contribution of the thesis in the fact that I suggested recommendations for suitable health and social services for people with multiple sclerosis. After completion of local contacts, this suggestion could be used as an informative brochure which would be available to people with multiple sclerosis.

Questions are mainly on the subject of vactination, hardening, child's care and convalescence, usage of antibiotics and basic knowledge in the field of infection diseases treatment and prevention. There were 100 parents of the fourth year school children attending three different primary school under the survey. With the help of the survey I have found out that parents are well informed of the main concepts of child's care and infection diseases treatment, including vactinations, examinations and usage of antibiotics. Although, the majority of the parents have the lack of information, concerning the hardening and convalescence.
