ŠÍMOVÁ, Lucie
There are about 10 -11 thousand colostomy patients in the Czech Republic nowadays. As the number of these patients goes up a system of complex nurse treatment should be prepared. Applying a colostomy bag means a deep inroad into patients´ personal, working and social lives. A stoma nurse help the patients to overcome new problems and difficulties. She also guides them in the care of stoma itself as well as of the diet. A specific nutrition is necessary to be followed as it can improve patients´ lives a lot. The aim of this work is to find out how much colostomy patients and nurses know about nutrition and drinking regime before patients are discharged home and if nurses in South Bohemian hospitals inform the patients. There were two hypotheses stated at the beginning. H1: Colostomy patients have enough information about nutrition and drinking regime before they are discharged. H2: Nurses inform patients about nutrition and drinking regime. To collect all necessary data, the method of questioning was used. Forty patients and sixty nurses in surgical wards were asked to fill in the questionnaires. The rate of return in all hospitals mentioned above was 100%. The patient questionnaires consisted of twenty questions and the nurse questionnaires of eighteen. Both hypotheses were proved, colostomy patients are informed about nutrition principles and nurses give them further information. The findings of the work will be offered to surgical ward sisters of the hospitals where the survey was done. They could be used for presenting at professional seminars for stoma and other surgical nurses who work with colostomy patients.

The prevalence of obesity is increasing in an alarming rate not only in developed countries, but in developing countries in the last time, too. The high prevalence of obesity in some of the developing countries is connected with the economic development which currently reached the acceptance of western lifestyle including eating habits and automobilization. Obesity has nowadays became a serious problem in countries, where had hardly occurred before that time. In the beginning of the theoretical part of this work are medical pieces of knowledge about obesity, their complications, treatment and prevention. There are introduced different ways of treatment as the dietary treatment of obesity is, cognitively behavioural treatment of obesity, locomotive activity in a therapy of obesity of the immobile patient, pharmacotherapeutical treatment of obesity and surgical treatment of obesity. The influence has there a suitable education to a healthy way of living. In the second theoretical part of this work the role of nurse in the care about obese immobile patient is included, syndrome of immobile and psychosocial and spiritual needs of the immobile patient. Indeed, there should not be omitted the importance of rehabilitation of immobile patient in this chapter. To the quantitative research I used the questionnaire method on the base of the specific choice, which was created by questions and focused on nurses, who are taking care of immobile patients which are hospitalised in hospitals on the after-treatment care and medical institution for the long - term lying in the Czech Budweis and at the internal and surgical ward in Prachatice. The aim of this work was to find out how obesity influences the quality of provided nursing care in the area of hygiene and prevention of decubitus by immobile patients hospitalised in at the after-treatment care in the Czech Budweis hospital. From the given hypothesis it was confirmed the first one. In the hospital in the Czech Budweis at the after-treatment care are hospitalised immobile patients with BMI 30 and higher. The hypothesis number two was not confirmed. Obesity by immobile patients hospitalised at the after-treatment care did not influence the quality of provided nursing care negatively. The results show that the nursing staff provides quality comparable nursing care by immobile patients as well as immobile patients without overweight.

The catering customs of the Jihočeská university´s students
HROMÍŘOVÁ, Jana
SUMMARY: One of the main aims of the humankind is to obtain and preserve health. To achieve this it is important to prevent illnesses; we talk about prevention. Prevention consists of many important factors; such as right nourishment, reasonable physical and mental activities and optimal vital life. That`s why I selected subject for my bachelor work: {\clqq}The catering customs of the Jihoceska university`s students``, which aims at the right nourishment of the undergraduates. The aim of my work was to find out whether the students of the JCU take meals according to the principles of the right nourishment during their studies and if the standard of their nourishment depends on their financial situation. The result from my questionnaire is clear: Students of the JCU don`t take the right principles of the right nourishment. Negative influences have impact on their right nourishment during studies are iregularity of diet, insufficiency of free time and insufficiency of finance. Students of the JCU prefer light pastry and sweets in opposite to fish, pulse and fermented milk products. It is necessary to implement to their menu more healthy food, such as fruit, vegetable, pulse, dark wholemeal pastry, fish and it is also important to keep regularity in drinking minimally 1,5 l of liquid per day. Students of the JCU should have more physical trainings to keep optimal weight and prevent illnesses. Important factors for electing diet are financial together with taste, smell and appearance of the food. Result from the next questionnaire, which I did in France, is that the French students take more right principles of the right nourishment. Their diet is light and better to consume. It consists mainly from vegetable, poultry, pulse and fish. By my opinion it would be better for students of the JCU to take principles of the French students and to import food of French cuisine to their menu.

Importance of Body Image Marketing
Hejdová, Miroslava ; Koudelka, Jan (advisor) ; Skokanová, Dagmar (referee)
Objective: Body image may be regarded as a very useful tool in marketing strategies. In the theoretic part of the thesis, body image topic is discussed from the women and men's perspective. Main aspects which could be used in marketing are stressed. 1) The first aim of the thesis is to support or explode a theory about current slim ideal in women and athletic body in men and furthermore struggling of men and women to fulfill this ideal by dieting or exercise. 2) The second aim is to find how exactly body image is used in printed adverts on cosmetics, medicines, food supplements and medical devices distributed in pharmacies. Methods: Questionnaire study, analysis of adverts on leaflets. Results: Aim 1: A total of 43 subjects were included in the study, 28 females, 15 males. The majority of subject had university education (35 subj.), none of the subject had only basic level of education. The most frequent residence included Prague (30 subjects). Two hypotheses were statistically confirmed in the study, i.e. Hypothesis 7: Women more than men are aware of the fact, that advertisements do influence their feeling about what they want to look like (p=0.004) and Hypothesis 13: The desire to loose weight is dependent on age (p=0.002). In women, slim body is preferred, while in men the best body would be athletic one. Aim 2: The percentage of total area which aimed at body image differs substantialy within the analysed sample (minimum 4%, maximum 36% of total area of the leaflet). Body image is most frequently used in adverts on cosmetics. In general, it seems, that the area dedicated to body image is very similar across all cathegories. Most of the adverts showed woman's body or its parts. If a man was shown, it was always in a particular social role (a father, a grandfather). Conclusion: Basic presumptions and hypotheses about body image of men and women in our society were confirmed. In line with published literature data, the women's ideal would mean a slim lady who takes care of herself. In men, it is a tall handsome browny man with friendly nature. A certain pilot study into printed adverts on various products sold in pharmacies also confirms wide use of body image in advertising on cosmetics and also over the counter sold medicines. Also in this part of the thesis a compliance with literature-published data concerning use of body image in advertising was found.
