DOLEŽEL, Jakub
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the Czech Republic. An increasing number of its inhabitants become cardiac patients who require a nursing intervention. Nursing in cardiology has an irreplaceable position in the cardiovascular care provision. The health care costs are rising, nursing has been undergoing many changes. Training of cardiology nurses gets changed, as well as the image and role of cardiology nurses in society. Cardiology nurses are much more independent, educated and organized. In cardiovascular facilities nursing care is being standardized and the quality of care is improving. In this thesis, focus is given to nursing in cardiology. In the introduction the issue of cardiovascular diseases is outlined, the major part is devoted to the concept of Czech nursing in cardiology. Individual stages of the system of care for cardiac patients in the Czech Republic and the status of cardiology nurses involved in the system are surveyed. Attention is also paid to the structure of cardiovascular facilities and expert companies in our country and abroad. The thesis has the title: Survey of continuity of care for cardiac patients in the Czech Republic with focus on nursing care. In total five goals, seven research questions and four hypotheses were stated. We surveyed the cardiology nurses´ attitude to lifelong learning, if they are building their own specific image, and if they ensure the continuity of care. Our objective was also to identify the role of nurses in education of cardiac patients and the level of cardiac patients´ knowledge. The research section is elaborated on the basis of a qualitative and quantitative investigation. The qualitative part was carried out by semi-structured interviews with cardiology nurses working in comprehensive cardiovascular centers. The quantitative part of the survey was conducted with patients of comprehensive cardiovascular centers. Seventy domestic and foreign sources of literature devoted not only to the issueof cardiovascular diseases were quoted. The research results are supposed to serve as a basis for coordinated efforts of all participating nurses and institutions to build a well-functioning and technically and economically efficient system of nursing care for cardiac patients in CR.

SOUKUPOVÁ, Lenka
The topic of the bachelor´s work is Utilization of the educational plans in the care of cardiac patients. Heart & blood vessels diseases belong to the civilisation diseases. Circular system diseases are the most frequent cause of death in the advanced countries of the western civilisation, including the Czech Republic. The theoretical part is focused on heart and blood vessels anatomy, ischemic cardiac disease, education, the methods and forms of education of cardiac patients, where dietary measures, physical burden in cardiac patients, the possibility of balneotherapy and other recommendations for cardiac patients are described. The bachelor´s work has two goals Goal 1. To find out whether education of cardiac patients is being done in selected cardio centres, who provides the education, whether they have educational plans in the selected cardio centres and whether they utilize them and what is the effect of the education. Goal 2. To create and realize an own educational plan in cardio centre at hospital in České Budějovice. For these goals, 6 research questions have been set. RQ 1. Is education of cardiac patients being done in the selected cardio centres? RQ 2. Does the nurse participate in the education? RQ 3. Do they have an educational plan in the selected cardio centres? RQ 4. Do they utilize the educational plan in the selected cardio centres? RQ5. Does the education of cardiac patients have a positive effect in keeping regime and curative measures? RQ 6. Is the created educational plan going to have an effect on the knowledge and skills of a patient? A qualitative form of research, by the technique of semi-standardised interview has been used for the achievement of the goals. The research set consisted of 8 selected cardio centres and 8 cardiac patients who were hospitalized at hospital in České Budějovice. After the qualitative research has been conducted, answers were acquired. Answer 1: Education of cardiac patients is being done in all cardio centres. Answer No.2: General nurse takes part in the education of cardiac patients. Answer No.3: Only 3 out of 8 selected cardio centres have an educational plan created. Answer No.4: Most of the cardio centres don´t have an educational plan created. An educational plan is utilized only in 3 cardio centres where they have created it. Answer No.5: The education of cardiac patients has a positive effect in keeping curative and regime measures. Answer No.6 The created educational plan has a positive influence on the knowledge and skills of patients. There was only 1 patients where the educational plan had no effect, 4 patients started to change their food habits. It is very important that the people know the risk factors of ischemic heart diseases and the possibilities of prevention. A properly conducted education will mediate this information to people and therefore it would be suitable to train the medical staff working in the cardio centre at Hospital in České Budějovice, for an education of cardiac patients. I think that the created educational plan could be used for the education of cardiac patients at Hospital in České Budějovice
