Title Effectiveness of conservative and microdiscetomy treatment for patients with lumbar disc herniation Background Lumbar disc herniation is a common cause of the radiating leg pain and related disabilities that affects people mostly in the middle age. Patients that suffer from lumbar disc herniation respond well to conservative treatment, but for some amount of them surgery could be considered if conservative care is failed after 6 weeks. Although variety of conservative methods that common available in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation, there is conflicting evidence that one type of treatment is clearly superior to others and disagreement over superiority of either surgical intervention or longer conservative treatment for patients with persistent symptoms lasting more than 6 weeks without serious neurological deficit. Aim The main purpose of this thesis is to assess the efficacy of main types of conservative and surgery treatments of the lumbar disc herniation and factors that influence clinical outcomes in patients undergoing this treatment. Method This thesis is a literature review, reviewing articles from relevant journals and books. The relevant sources were searched and collected from database of PubMed, Cochrane library and ScienceDirect from beginning of 2012 to the middle of...

KOŠNÁŘOVÁ, Kateřina
The area of the care of a Clubfoot (pes equinovarus congenitus PEC Clubfoot) Diagnosed Child is the topic of this Paper. Currently, the PEC is the second most frequent congenital deformity within orthopaedics. The theoretical part of this Paper deals with a description of the PEC, its diagnostics, cure and a possible risk of relapse. A sub-chapter of the Paper introduces the Achilleus association, which is the only body in the Czech Republic bringing together parents of PEC diagnosed children. The Paper also focuses on nurses and their role(s) in the nursing care of PEC diagnosed children. The empirical part of this Paper covers a research with the following directions: - parental knowledge of PEC diagnosed children care at home; - specifications of the nursing care of PEC diagnosed children; - nurses and their educational role (if fulfilled) in the nursing care of PEC diagnosed children. The research presented in the empirical part of the Paper was based on a semi-structuralized interview and open coding technique. The interviews were conducted with parents of PEC diagnosed children and care providing nurses who also play an important educational role in this matter. The benefit of the Paper, based on collected research data, is to provide a complete overview on the problems relating to the care of PEC diagnosed children. The outcome is supposed to be also presented to appropriate expert public for further consideration. The research outcome presents that the level of parental knowledge of the PEC diagnosed children care at home is very high and that parents provide their children with a quality care. The Paper describes that specifications of the nursing care of PEC diagnosed children are mainly evident in appropriate and consistent education of parents as the homecare is usually a long-term process. Finally, the Paper also shows that nurses in their educational role in the nursing care of PEC diagnosed children do not fulfil their tasks to such an extent that is expected.
