Hubertová, Lucie ; Šivicová, Gabriela (referee) ; Hrachovinová, Tamara (advisor)
Summary:Diabetic foot disease is a serious complication of diabetes mellitus that is associated with averse sequelae and high costs. The study was focused on psychic and social aspects of quality of life. The aims of this study were following: (i) the description of the quality of life in patients with diabetic foot disease by comparing their quality of life with that of a sample from the healthy population; (ii) characterization of social support in patients with diabetic foot disease by comparing subgroup living with partner and a subgroup living without partner; (iii) the examination of depressive symptoms in patients with diabetic foot disease by comparing severity of depressive symptoms with that of a sample from the healthy population; (iv) the description of psychosocial aspects of diabetic foot disease - limitation of daily activities, interpersonal problems and emotional burden due to problems with foot (v) to examine association between some psychosocial aspects (i.e. social support, limitation of daily activities, interpersonal problems and emotional burden), and severity of depressive symptoms. The study discovered that the patients with diabetic foot disease had significantly lower scores in physical health and psychological health domains of quality of life in comparison to than health people....

Proposing the financial performance prediction index for decision support of the hospital management
Hajdíková, Taťána ; Černá, Anna (advisor) ; Lieskovská, Vanda (referee) ; Lazar, Jaromír (referee)
Dissertation thesis deals with the managerial needs in the area of financial health. Managers need a tool to reveal the impending financial failure or to assess the financial quality of the organization. They link their decisions to performance, ability to pay, employee productivity, financial resources and financial risk. In the theoretical part of the thesis it is necessary to explain the non-profit sector and its connection with the hospital environment. It is also necessary to introduce models used both in the Czech Republic and abroad, which share common elements. The basic aim of this thesis is to propose a financial performance prediction index for decision support of the hospital management, the owners of hospitals and insurance companies. To achieve the basic goal, three sub-goals must be accomplished. The first goal is to divide the hospitals into healthy and unhealthy by using the multi-criteria methods. The second goal is, based on an expert approach with the support of statistical methods, the selection of indicators appropriate for the hospital environment and the third goal is to find a suitable method for the determination of weighted representation of individual indicators in the proposed index and to assemble the final form of the new financial index for the hospital environment.

Education of a patient with Atopic Dermatitis
ČERVENÁ, Jana
The topic of this bachelor´s work is {\clqq}Education of a patient with atopic dermatitis``, and deals with education of patients performed by nurses working at outpatient departments of dermatology. There were objectives and hypotheses determined for the work and then verified with the help of a quality research. As an instrument of the research a questionnaire was used for the patients visiting outpatient departments of dermatology in Vysočina and Středočeský regions. Another instrument of the research used here was a structured interview with nurses as a group of research working at outpatient departments of dermatology in Vysočina and Středočeský regions. The objective of the research was to determine if the patients with atopic dermatitis are satisfied with education of nurses, and to find out the forms of education of the patients with atopic dermatitis. After handing out the questionnaires, information was processed and consequently hypotheses either confirmed or disconfirmed The research showed that the patients are satisfied with nurses education concerning atopic dermatitis. The first hypothesis was verified by the research. We found out that nurses educate the patients in atopic dermatitis in the form of information leaflets. The second hypothesis was verified as well. The research confirmed that the patients search for information about atopic dermatitis in a very active way, which, at the same time, verified the hypothesis number three. This disorder belongs to demanding life situations both emotionally and mentally. A nurse task here is to offer her empathetic and holistic approach and participate in health improvement of the patient. In the course of education, a nurse completes and affects the knowledge, abilities, approach and behaviour of the patient to encourage his own effort and help him this way to improve his health condition.

Endoscopic laser-assisted cordectomies classified by Remacle and Rudert (typ I-V cordectomies) comprise a vast range of procedures from simple vocal cord stripping or submucosal cordectomy (type I) through more extensive surgery (subligamentous cordectomy- type II, transmuscular chordectomy- type III) to complete (type IV) or extended cordectomies (type V) used when tumour involves the anterior commisure, arytenoid region, subglottic region etc. Endoscopic laser-assisted surgery of the larynx is usually indicated in early stages of infiltrative malignant disease of the glottic region (Tla-b, T2) or in preneoplastic conditions (laryngeal intraepithelial neoplasia - LIN I, II or III). Radiotherapy is also believed to be an equivalent type of oncological therapy for these diseases. Both surgery and radiotherapy can worsen one of the main functions of the human larynx- the human voice. Because the overall survival rates and local control rates are quite similar in both types of therapy, one should always have in mind something that is beyond the main goal of achieving radical removal of the tumour- patients quality of life (QoL) and quality of voice. It is very interesting to compare QoL and voice quality in different types of treatment. The possibility to conserve the radiotherapy for the possible recurrence...

The nursing process in a patient with cystic fibrosis
Václavková, Aleksandra ; Tomová, Šárka (advisor) ; Kaplická, Jitka (referee)
This bachelor ́s thesis deals with patients suffering from cystic fibrosis (CF). The thesis includes a theoretical and a practical part. In the theoretical one, underlying anatomical and physiological disturbances in key organ systems are discussed. A historical review, genetics aspects, manifestations of the disease and current treating possibilities are also concerned. Despite a considerable improvement on the field of the diagnostic process, the diagnosis of CF is still often considered to late with negative consequences on the prognosis. Although the causal therapy is still not existing, an intensive supportive care can significantly prolong and improve the quality of life of the patients. Considerable progress in the treatment research promises a total cure in the future. The practical part of the thesis contains an analysis of separates steps of the nursing process and its practical application in one concrete patient. I elaborated a nursing anamnesis according to the Gordon's functional health model. I elicited detailed information about patient's health state for establishing his complex evaluation. When the nursing problems determined and the diagnoses established, I worked on the realisation of defined nursing goals. According to the efficacy feedback, I continuously adapted the approach to the...

Analysis of High Efficiency Video Coding
Svoboda, Jaroslav ; Ivánek, Jiří (advisor) ; Palovský, Radomír (referee)
Standard MPEG-H part 2/H.265 alias High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is patterned on MPEG-4 part 10/H.264. Although it is A new standard developed to be more efficient, its implementation is sequential and therefore there are no guarantees that the output video file will achieve the quality it possibly can within this standard. To determine how this hypothesis is fulfilled, this thesis uses the methods PSNR and SSIM which compare input and output. Another consideration is computational complexity or, in other words, the power demand, which was tested by comparing the battery life of two cell phones. Test results confirmed higher compression effectivity and higher computational complexity of standard MPEG-H part 2/H.265 as well.
