Jirásek, Martin ; Plešková, Jana (advisor) ; Pokorný, Jan (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the adherence to inhaled treatment, its measurement, telemedicine and telerehabilitation and the possible use of the CF Hero mobile app in paediatric patients with cystic fibrosis. In the theoretical part, it presents knowledge about cystic fibrosis, adherence to treatment in patients with cystic fibrosis and possibilities of its measurement, telemedicine and telerehabilitation. The practical part describes the CF Hero mobile app, which has been the target of measurements on several patients. At the same time, a questionnaire was developed focusing on satisfaction with the use of this mobile application.

FOUSKOVÁ, Jitka
Introduction: Chronic kidney disease in the progressing stage can significantly affect the quality of the patients' lives. It is estimated that more than 10 % of the worldwide population suffer from this disease. Proper nursing care, lifestyle modification and following proper medical treatment could significantly slow down the progression of disease. The main aim of the bachelor thesis was to find out the level of adherence to the treatment regime of patients with chronic kidney disease. Methodology: Quantitative research was chosen to process the practical part. Results were collected using a standardised questionnaire containing 50 questions to determine the attitude of haemodialysis centre patients towards adherence to dialysis plan, medication, fluid restriction and diet. Collected data was analysed and statistically processed using Microsoft Excel programme. Results: The research sample was made up by 94 respondents. The results show that 58,5 % patients undergoing haemodialysis treatment have an adherent attitude to the treatment. Keeping therapy treatment is influenced by the attitude of nursing staff. For most of the respondents, it is important to follow a treatment regime, so that their health does not deteriorate or because they realise that the condition of their kidneys requires them to follow experts' advice. Conclusion: The results of our thesis highlight the importance of nurses paying attention to patients with chronic kidney disease. Patients with whom nursing staff regularly talk about their treatment follow recommendations more conscientiously. The most frequent problem among patients is misunderstanding treatment and recommendations.
Compliance with mode measures by the anticoagulative treatment in primary medical care
PROCHÁZKOVÁ, Alexandra
The goal of my bachelor´s thesis has been a description of state compliance with patients taking Warfarin and afterwards the relationship between measurement of compliance and occurrence of complications related to the treatment with Warfarin. Concurrently, compliance from the point of age and gender has been meant to be supported. The theoretical part has been dedicated to anticoagulative treatment with emphasis on Warfarin, education and patient´s compliance by observance of mode measures related to treatment with Warfarin. Quantitative research survey has been chosen to process this bachelor´s thesis with using of technique of data collecting with a form of an anonymous unstandardized questionnaire survey. The survey team has consisted of the patients in České Budějovice taking Warfarin. Three hypotheses have been specified in connection with the goal of this thesis. We have assumed by the two mentioned hypotheses such a kind of relation between the state compliance connected to their age, then between mode compliance and their gender. By the third hypothesis we have claimed that occurrence that could have been related to the mode compliance. Thanks to the given results we have found out that there is no relation to their age or gender by the patients taking Warfarin, but there is a relation to the patients taking Warfarin and mode compliance. Beyond the given goal we have come to the conclusion that compliance is related to the achieved education and also it decreases with its length. The results could be used as a material for nurses´ education in surgeries or for general practitioners in some other hospitals. There has been pointed out the necessity of a proper education, patients awareness and importance of mutual relations and communication. These facts could influence the patient´s contribution to mode treatment and increase its success rate. This work provides complete information regarding treatment with Warfarin and also possible consequences by using wrong patient´s compliance.
