Awareness of vegetarians about deficit of certain nutritions in vegetarian diet and about ways to compensate them
VORLÍČKOVÁ, Markéta
This thesis deals with vegetarians' awareness of the lack of specific nutritional substances in the vegetarian diet and their compensation. The aim is to explore whether vegetarians have sufficient information about the nutritional composition of their diet, whether they are interested in researching this information and whether the information is available and sufficient. I also looked at whether people with this eating preference are preventing potential nutritional deficits and subsequent health problems. There were designated the following three research questions: "How often and where do most vegetarians get information about a meatless diet?", "How can you achieve a full fledged vegetarian diet?" and "What is vegan awareness on the potential deficiencies in their diet, and how do they try avoid these?". In the theoretical part I deal with vegetarianism as a lifestyle, vegetarianism and its subgroups, the reasons for going to this way of life, the composition of a vegetarian diet with a focus on nutrients that may be deficient, vegetarianism and its impact on the body at different stages of development and ultimately the impact of a meatless diet on human health. The practical section is an elaborated form of qualitative research, specifically I chose semi-structured interviews. I collected the data from the interviews. The interview contained fourteen or fifteen questions, and women were also questioned about the pregnancy period. I asked questions regarding the issue of vegetarianism, veganism or raw foodism. I was interested in individual eating habits, nutrition knowledge and personal experience of the respondents. The data was collected between January 2014 and March 2014. The research group consisted of 6 respondents. The group was made up of women and men in the age range from 20 to 30 years. Among respondents there were vegetarians, vegans and raw foodists and the period of time in which they have been eating this way is different for every person. All respondents were familiar with the purpose of providing an interview and agreed to the publication. The interviews I conducted in person and were recorded on a dictaphone mobile phone. The results of my work show that most respondents do research about a meatless diet. They logically state that most intensive research took place while they were switching their eating habits, but now they still keep finding out new information. The most commonly used way was the Internet, specifically through websites such as www.soucitne.cz or www.vegan-fighter.com. Other sources used are books, articles, studies, and information received from friends or family members. The respondents argue that because the information was obtained this way, their diet is balanced. They are often trying to maintain diversity in their diet, for example, consume legumes and combine various foods such as legumes with cereals. Raw foodists state that they often consume sprouts, seeds, nuts, and of course a large amount of raw vegetables and fruits. All Vegans and Raw foodists know about the possible lack of vitamin B12, and some for this reason, use supplements. Also mentioned are supplements or protein complex supplements designed specifically for vegans.

The Development of Hospice Care in the South Bohemian Region
PŘEDOTOVÁ, Eva
Hospices provide palliative medical care to patients in the terminal stage of their disease. The idea of hospice care is based on the respect for a human being as a unique and unreproducible entity. This approach ensures that a person does not stay alone in the last moments of his or her life, does not suffer unbearable pain and, last but not least, is guaranteed that his or her human dignity will be preserved and respected in all circumstances. This thesis focuses especially on providing hospice care in clients' homes. The goal of hospice care is to enable a person suffering from a serious disease to spend the last moments of his or her life at home with his or her family. It emphasises both a quality care of a dying person and support of the nursing family. The bachelor thesis is entitled: The Development of Hospice Care in the South Bohemian Region. It aims to determine the need for providing field hospice care and at the same time to describe the issue of home hospice care development in the South Bohemian region. In order to achieve these aims, the method of qualitative research has been used, namely the technique of semi-controlled interviews, supplemented by a survey. Three interviews carried out with the representatives of the Hospice of St. Jan N. Neumann clearly showed that the public as well as healthcare professionals are interested in field hospice care. Even the medical staff who took part in the survey held a similar opinion, mainly stressing the interest in home hospice care among their patients. The interview with the director of the hospice in Prachatice clearly indicated that everything was ready for launching the home hospice operation. However, it is not possible to launch this service due to the insurance company's, as the main finance provider, lack of willingness to help. The insurance company is not interested in signing a contract with the only registered hospice in the South Bohemian region, namely the Hospice of St. Jan N. Neumann.

Healthy aging in the context of nursing care
RADOVÁ, Ludmila
Healthy Ageing Programme is a concept which should have a significant influence on every resident in the countries where population median age has been quickly increasing. This topic of healthy ageing is the key issue of the given Master´s Diploma Thesis. At the present, our country is involved not only in several smaller-scale regional programmes focused on lives of seniors but also in the events of European importance. If we want to provide our seniors with a quality life in all aspects, it is necessary to encourage promoting Healthy Ageing Programme. The wide scope of activity is thus open, especially for nurses. The first objective develops the approach of seniors in the selected health-care facilities to healthy ageing. The second objective introduces the approach of a client before retirement age to the healthy ageing principles. Finally, the third objective specifies the role of general practice nurses in their support of clients before retirement age in their healthy ageing. Research questions included the following issues: the approach of a client at the age before retirement to the healthy ageing principles and the role of a general practice nurse and her support of the abovementioned clients. The given research also develops one hypothesis regarding the fact that personal objectives will change depending on barriers.Both qualitative and quantitative research was used in the given Diploma Thesis. An in-depth interview was conducted during the survey. Additional information was obtained on the basis of an opinion poll. Two research groups were used for the interview: the first one consisted of 11 respondents from the general practitioner´s outpation departments, the second research group consisted of 6 nurses working for the aforementioned departments. The total number of 150 respondents from the designated health-care facilities was selected for the survey during which they were answering the research questions. As a result, a large number of useful information was obtained. The clients' approach can be divided into several groups: leisure activities, education, workload, prevention and medical examinations, regimen, community nursing care, healthy ageing. The key roles of a nurse should take into consideration the following aspects: healthy ageing from the nurse´s point of view, prevention and geriatric nurse at the outpatient department, community nursing care, health support of the patients provided by a nurse. Information obtained from the interviews were interconnected and often corresponded with each other. Research questions are also followed by the given results. A nurse has a significant role in the area of education, provision of necessary information to the clients, promotion of prevention programmes informing the clients about the solution to their problems. The motivation of clients before retirement age is also crucial because it is at this age when people can influence their life, its length and quality. The survey also observes the general perception of people of an old age and changes in their point of view with age. The information collected from this survey may be also used in different studies in order to improve both quality of nursing care and motivation of the clients before their retirement.

The after-care management of patients with cardiac arrhythmia after a discharge out of the cardiac care unit.
JANÁSOVÁ, Věra
Heart rhythm disorders alias arrhythmias rank among the most frequent heart diseases. They result from a disorder of generation or conduction of electric impulses at the heart. There are often arrhythmias of which one is not conscious and which may be detected in long-term ECG monitoring. Patients{\crq} problems mostly arise from rhythm disorders that are paroxysmal or permanent. These may endanger the patient{\crq}s life. Subjective troubles reported by patients include uncomfortable heart palpitation, fatigue, breathlessness, distress, shorter breath, dizziness or even unconsciousness; sometimes patients may feel unpleasant chest pain. These subjective feelings are very uncomfortable for a person suffering from heart arrhythmia and can make it impossible for him/her to manage routine daily activities. The task of a nurse is to help a patient overcome this difficult period and instruct him/her of a healthy lifestyle as a prevention of heart diseases. In this respect, cooperation between the nurses in hospitals and the nurses in cardiologic out-patient departments is important. Four hypotheses were raised. The first hypothesis was to confirm that the care of patients with heart arrhythmia after their discharge to home-care is sufficient in respect of their needs. This hypothesis was confirmed. The second hypothesis was to confirm that the patients are sufficiently instructed on prevention of recurrence of heart arrhythmias. This hypothesis was not confirmed. The third hypothesis was to confirm that patients know the impacts of heart arrhythmias on their overall health state, and was not confirmed. The fourth hypothesis was to confirm that patients are aware of other options of the care after discharge from hospital. This hypothesis was not confirmed. In the practical part of the thesis I used a quantitative research. The research was conducted in hospitals in České Budějovice, Jihlava, Plzeň and Prague, in the form of anonymous questionnaires distributed to patients in cardiologic out-patient departments. The results have been processed in charts and tables in the SPSS programme. The objectives were fulfilled. The appendix to the thesis contains a brief proposal suggesting on what the nursing care should be focused after a patient{\crq}s discharge from hospital. The results will be offered to deputy managers for the nursing care and to nurses in cardiologic out-patient departments.
