KOVÁŘOVÁ, Kristýna
This bachelor thesis focuses on women after the cesarean section and their opinions on this surgical procedure. In the theoretical part, there several poins were clarified,such as the problems of caesarean section, its definition, history, types of incisions and indications, possible complications and types of anesthesia that can be used in this operation. An integral part of the theoretical work is midwives' nursing care of a woman before and after operation and during the puerperium. The thesis is also engaged in breastfeeding and care of the newborn after the caesarean section. The aim of the research section was to find out the women's opinions on the caaesarean section from a retrospective point of view. Four research questions have emerged from this objective. The first question was how women understood the caesarean delivery. The second one was about women's satisfaction with midwife care. The third question focused on thefirst contact with the newborn and the fourth one on influencing the life of women after the caesarean section. A qualitative research survey was chosen for the research part. The survey was conducted during March 2017 with seven respondents who were, from one to five years, after the caesarean section and agreed to provide an interview. During the semi structured interview, women were asked 15 questions. Then, the conversations were literally transcribed, their analysis was done by hand coding, or pen and paper method. Women's responses were identified by individual codes and categorized. The research shows that women have a positive opinion on the C-section, Theky consider it the best choice in a situation that has been taken to save their child. Despite that most respondents were worried before surgery, their consent to the caesarean section would not change today. For more than half, the information provided by the doctor was sufficient and comprehended. Almost all surveyed women were satisfied with nursing care and information from midwives and also with the first contact with the newborn, which occurred within two hours after the procedure. However, dissatisfaction was expressed in the approach to breastfeeding and in this area most women described the difficulties. Although more than half of women responded that they did not feel limited by surgery, all respondents let family members help them during the puerperium. Nearly all respondents reported increased sensitivity in the scar that they felt at least for half a year after delivery. The bachelor's thesis may serve as an inspiration for midwives to improve thein nursing care. In addition, midwifery students can benefit it in improving thein practice experience.
