Occurrence and characteristics of ide (Leuciscus idus Linnaeus, 1758) catches in drainage area of the Morava River
Prokeš, Miroslav ; Baruš, Vlastimil ; Peňáz, Milan
The ide, Leuciscus idus belongs to autochthonous, less numerous and endangered (vulnerable) fish species of the Czech Republic. In 2004, the fishing on ide was conducted on 51 non-salmonid (NS) fishing-grounds of the Moravian Anglers Union (MAU) on water area of 4622.4 ha. In total, 432 ides (= 0.31 ind.ha-1; 0.25 % of all captured fish) and 332 kg of ide biomass (= 0.23 kg.ha-1, = 0.10 % of total mass of captured fish) were captured in 2004. Mean individual mass of ide was 0.78 kg. In the period 1990-2004, 0.11 ind.ha-1 (= 0.067 % of all captured fish) and 0.075 kg.ha-1 (= 0.035 % of total mass of captured fish) in the NS fish-grounds of MAU were captured yearly. During 1953-1978, 1.67 ind.ha-1 and 1.41 kg.ha-1 of the ide were captured yearly in the riverine fishing-ground Dyje 7. General trend of catches is decreasing. Legislative species protection, artificial reproduction and restocking of fish fry and 1+ juveniles were realized.

Invasive fish species in the Czech Republic
Lusk, Stanislav ; Lusková, Věra
In the Czech Republic, the following fish species are evaluated as invasive: Carassius auratus, a species showing a significantly negative influence on the occurrence of native species Carassius carassius and Tinca tinca in natural habitats. Certain manifestations and properties (such as the invasive way of dispersal, numerous populations, great ecological tolerance etc.) typical of invasive species can also be seen in Pseudorasbora parva, Ameiurus nebulosus, and Proterorhinus marmoratus. In some of its manifestations, even Cteropharyngodon idella can affect biodiversity in a negative way. One cannot exclude the future invasion or introduction of any alien species evaluated as invasive, particularly those of the genus Neogobius that occur in the Slovakian part of the Danube, and Perccottus glenii that has already invaded the Tisza River drainage area and the lower part of the Danube.

The effekt of accreditation on the quality of health care providet in selected medical facilites.
SOMROVÁ, Jana
The quality of nursing care is becoming an increasingly important concept in contemporary nursing. The most effective means of achieving quality of nursing care and the means of proof is the accreditation of medical facilities. It is a significant appreciation of professionalism, the work of health professionals and an important signal for the patients. Quality of care, security of supply and preventing potential risks for health care priority. The main aim of the thesis "The influence of accreditation on quality of care in selected health facilities" was to map the set of quality management and impact monitoring and evaluation of quality indicators in hospitals accredited by the Czech Republic. To determine whether accreditation has become an instrument to ensure comparable quality, and time has changed from an unpopular instrument into an instrument for continuous quality improvement. The survey took place from November 2010 to March 2011 in the form of quantitative data collection using an anonymous questionnaire survey in selected hospitals accredited by the Czech Republic. In the research study were asked managers of nursing care, main, upper station and sisters. The thesis has been established 6 goals. The first objective was to determine what indicators of quality nursing care in accredited hospitals pursue. Interested in us as quality indicators that were studied before accreditation, and quality indicators to setting up medical facilities in preparation for accreditation. The second objective was determine how frequently watched indicator of quality is monitored in hospital. The third objective was to determine whether there was in accredited hospitals to reduce adverse events - falls. The fourth objective was to determine whether there was in accredited hospitals to reduce the incidence of nosocomial infections in complying with barrier nursing regime. The fifth objective was to identify the biggest problems arose during the implementation of audits, completeness and comprehensiveness of nursing documentation management into practice. " The sixth objective was to determine whether there was during the preparation of an increase in hospital nursing staff. The thesis then was examined six hypotheses. First hypothesis Accredited hospitals monitor the quality of care provided by at least ten quality indicators - were confirmed. Hypothesis 2 The most frequently monitored indicator of the quality of nursing care, the prevalence of pressure ulcers - was confirmed. All respondents said they monitor the prevalence of pressure ulcers as an indicator of quality nursing care. Hypothesis 3 gaining accreditation to reduce the incidence of falls - was confirmed. Hypothesis 4 obtaining accreditation decreased nosocomial infections - was confirmed. Hypothesis 5 The biggest problem in implementing the audit, management complexity and completeness of nursing documentation in practice "has been an increase in paperwork for nursing staff - were confirmed. Hypothesis 6 During the preparation for accreditation has been an increase in nursing staff - has not been confirmed. Accreditation is perceived by respondents as beneficial for the hospital. Due to accreditation standards and developing quality indicators were identified risk areas in the provision of hospital care and detail can be paid to the prevention of adverse events, nosocomial infections and other risks. The results of work will be to provide medical facilities where the research was conducted investigation, the presentation of the research will be presented at a conference, the South Bohemian nursing days "and also gives the United Accreditation Commission of the Czech Republic as a presentation at the conference to be held early next year (spring ) 2012th Nursing standards were created.

Zemanová, Monika ; Nováková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Hošková, Blanka (referee)
Title: Influence of handball on the shoulder girdle state. Goal of the project: Examine and evaluate of functional condition of shoulder joints of young handball players on various player positions between input and output investigation. Suggestion of strengthening and stretching exercises for the area of shoulder girdle and finding if the exercises has some influence on the shoulder point as well as on the player performance. Method: We made comparison of input and output test results by the method of "kvasiexperimental" qualitative study. A modified questionnaire was given to each player before input investigation. Based on the questionnaire we learned deviations from the function, eventually the pain in the area of shoulder joint. After input investigation strengthening and stretching exercises of the shoulder girdle for 13 handball players on the various player positions in the youth team of Dukla Prague were suggested. Results: Results of the investigation of shoulder girdles in the group of handball players did not prove large number of subjective symptoms in the sense of pain and limitation. During clinical examination we also did not learn on any player results pointing the suspicion on expressive structural disorder of the monitored area. However the number of functional changes was...

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.

Civil emergency planning in Czech republic and its developement and role within North Atlantic Treaty Organization
POPELÁŘ, Ondřej
The presented Thesis deals with Civil Emergency Planning (CEP) in the Czech Republic and its evolution and role within the Alliance. The theoretical section of the main body focuses on CEP at NATO and Czech national levels. In relation to NATO, this Thesis explains the concept of CEP, its origin and evolution within the Alliance. It describes the course of CEP development as NATO strategy concepts, priorities and CEP aims changed over the time due to changes in political situation. The important point to understand the whole issue is the depiction of tasks to be met by CEP within the Alliance, and the Ministerial Guidance being the primary CEP related document. Five basic tasks applicable from the very first edition of the Ministerial Guidance till now have been described in detail. An integral part of the NATO CEP is the visualisation of the organisational structure which is necessary for understanding the practical portion. The other section of the main body focuses on CEP as designed for the Czech Republic. At this level, the CEP is a methodological tool for management of incident and crisis planning guaranteeing their interaction and preventing duplicities with defence planning. It defines CEP´s areas of interest and it depicts legislative and institutional support. The practical portion is mainly focusing on meeting basic tasks by individual responsible entities working within four basic planning groups. To get the best possible view of tasks fulfilled based on the Ministerial Guidance, the following method has been chosen: main tasks defined by the Ministerial Guidance have been divided into three main parts in compliance with the task categories of the Ministerial Guidance. The tasks are coped with within the four planning groups. The planning groups are then assigned to ministries that are the responsible entities in terms of the Czech Republic. The result is a clear picture showing main tasks of public administration central bodies, and how these tasks are met within the Alliance plus their translation into the terms and conditions of the Czech Republic. The system also shows the history of each task depicting its conclusion or processing in which case it is transferred into the period of the next Ministerial, now Political, Guidance. The discussion analyses the issue of task fulfilment and importance of financial support to the CEP. The discussion concludes highlighting the necessity of interconnection between the national and NATO levels. This is ensured via permanent representatives in CEPC and representatives in individual planning groups. An example of some member nations shows, how the communication between CEP representatives works (or does not work) at various levels. The end of this Thesis evaluates legislative and institutional CEP interlinking of the Czech Republic and NATO. Unlike the institutional interlink, the legislative interlink is insufficient. The system of interlinking underlines the important role of the permanent representative in CEPC and representatives in planning groups. The main part of conclusion is dedicated to the facts resulting from outcomes and discussion giving clue whether the aims of this Thesis have been reached. The system, how the Czech CEP is working, has been found very efficient even in comparison with long-term members like Great Britain or France. Despite its clear quality and efficiency, it would be desirable to integrate the CEP into the legal system of the Czech Republic and thus to achieve its self-contained legal form. This change would not impact the work itself, but it could add to CEP´s political importance. At the end, a positive response is given to the research question evaluating whether the current status of CEP functioning in the Czech Republic is covering the needs of NATO.
