Patient falls and fall injuries have become one of the most common adverse events reported by health care providers due to all the circumstances associated with hospitalisation.Worldwide preventive actions in the field of patient falls focus on soft factors,predominantly on the education of healthcare professionals and patients,and organisational culture.Due to the dynamic development of information technologies and the increasing digital literacy of the professional and lay population,the e-learning field is an increasingly sought-after form of education.The empirical part's main objective was to determine the effectiveness of general nurses' education through information technology as an intervention programme to prevent patient falls. The main objective was divided into consecutive partial objectives.A mixed approach was used.The study uses a observational-interventional design. The first partial objective,an analysis of patient falls, was investigated using a quantitative research method.Patient falls concerning a major health care provider were analysed over five years.The ??2-test or Fisher's exact test was used to test statistical relations.The Kruskal-Wallis test was used to test nonparametric variables.Regression analysis was applied to evaluate the trend in the incidence of fall injuries with regard to high-risk patients.The second research phase was based on the previous phase results,whereby a qualitative methodological approach was selected.The aim was to detect areas of falls focused on the specifics of the clinical environment,which were suitable for being included in the educational programme.Data was collected through a semi-structured interview. The third partial objective was creating and implementing an e-learning educational programme for general nurses in a clinical environment.Within the pilot testing,the properties of knowledge tests,content validity,and reliability were verified using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient and Cronbach's alpha.The effectiveness of the established e-learning programme (fourth partial objective)was verified by comparing the incidence of patient falls before and after the established intervention.Bonferroni correction and test of equality of parameters of two alternative distributions were used to verify the homogeneity of the compared groups of patients. With regard to the possible influence of confounders and to verify the incidence of injuries caused by falls,the method of statistical matching (propensity score matching) was subsequently used.Valuation of the e-learning programme's effectiveness with regard to the participants' level of knowledge was performed by comparing the results of the input and output knowledge test,for which the Stuart-Maxwell test and Fisher's exact test were used.The analysis of partial objectives of individual research phases was carried out separately;the objectives logically followed,and fulfilling the previous objective conditioned their fulfilment.The test of equality of parameters of two alternative distributions allowed for comparing groups of patients that could be considered equal.There was a decrease in the incidence of patient injuries due to falls in both disciplines (all injuries in the surgical discipline; p ? 0.05 and severe injuries in the internal medicine discipline; p ? 0.01).The results proved the influence of the e-learning educational programme on specific clinical practice indicators.Statistical matching eliminated confounding factors and confirmed a statistically significant reduction in the incidence of falls in patients with internal medicine injuries (p? 0,05).There was also an improvement in the participants' knowledge in the output knowledge test (p ? 0,001). Education of medical personnel based on the principles of science and the needs of clinical practice is a possible effective preventive intervention in patients falls and efforts to minimise the occurrence their consequences.

Cíl: Pády pacientů zhoršují jejich funkční stav a kvalitu života a zvyšují jejich životní úroveň. náklady na léčbu. E-learning je považován za účinný způsob, jak získat znalosti a kompetence pro kvalitní a bezpečnost v ošetřovatelské praxi. Cílem studie je zhodnotit účinnost e-learningového kurzu pro. sestry v oblasti prevence pádů u hospitalizovaných pacientů. Metodika: V rámci studie byla zkoumána možnost, jak zjistit, zda je možné, aby se pacienti s úrazem v nemocnici setkali s úrazem: Design výzkumu byl smíšený. V první fázi studie byla provedena pětiletá retrospektivní analýza. 2 280 pádů u hospitalizovaných pacientů. Na základě analýzy rizikových faktorů pádů pacientů a skupinových rozhovorů. s vedoucími klinik byl navržen e-learningový kurz, který absolvovalo 250 zdravotních sester z pěti chirurgických a interních oddělení. Účinnost kurzu byla vyhodnocena na základě výskytu pádů pacientů a jejich počtu. následků pádů před a po e-learningu. Výsledky: Na chirurgických odděleních došlo po absolvování kurzu ke statisticky významnému snížení indexů pádů pacientů. zavedení e-learningového kurzu (ze 4,4 na 2,6 pádu na 1 000 pacientů; p=0,022). Naopak u interních odděleních se tento index ve sledovaném období zvýšil (z 19,0 na 26,9 pádu na 1 000 pacientů; p=0.001). Na všech odděleních došlo ke snížení výskytu zranění pacientů způsobených pády po zavedení e-learningového kurzu; na interním oddělení byl tento pokles statisticky významný (z 1,5 % na 2,5 %); na interním oddělení byl tento pokles statisticky významný (z 54,5 % na 33,3 %; p=0,014). Závěr: Studie potvrdila, že e-learningové formy vzdělávání zdravotnických pracovníků mají pozitivní vliv na prevenci pádů pacientů Objectives: Patient falls deteriorate patients’ functional condition and quality of life, and increase their treatment costs. E-learning is considered an effective way to gain knowledge and competencies for quality and safety in nursing practice. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an e-learning course for nurses in preventing in-patient falls. Methods: The research design was mixed. In the first phase of the study, a five-year retrospective analysis of 2,280 in-patient falls was performed. Based on the analysis of risk factors for patient falls and group interviews with clinic managers an e-learning course was designed and completed by 250 nurses from five surgical and internal departments. The course’s effectiveness was evaluated based on the incidence of patient falls and the consequences of the falls before and after e-learning. Results: At surgical departments, there was a statistically significant decrease in patient fall indices after the implementation of the e-learning course (from 4.4 to 2.6 falls per 1,000 patients; p=0.022). On the contrary, in internal departments, this index increased in the monitored period (from 19.0 to 26.9 falls per 1,000 patients; p=0.001). In all departments, there was a decrease in the incidence of patient injuries caused by falls after the implementation of the e-learning course; in internal medicine, this decrease was statistically significant (from 54.5% to 33.3%; p=0.014). Conclusions: The study confirmed that e-learning forms of education for healthcare professionals have a positive effect in preventing patient falls.

This bachelor's thesis focuses on what pregnant women should be taught about a birth process by their midwives in antenatal classes and what important facts and skills make them mentally and physically sufficiently prepared for the birth process. It studies how well educated about the birth process after attending childbirth education classes selected group of pregnant women actually is. The primary aim of this bachelor's thesis was to describe and analyse efficiency of Czech antenatal classes in the field of preparedness for birth of selected group of pregnant women and to find out if these pregnant women were subsequently able to use their new skills during their birth process and if the given education was in their opinion sufficient and comprehensible. Thanks to this bachelor's thesis we have found out that the efficiency of education in the antenatal classes in the Czech Republic is not sufficient. The rate of well educated women is 75 %, the given education was in their opinion very well comprehensible and sufficient. However the ability to use the skills during their birth process wasn't satisfactory. Therefore we have arrived at a conclusion that antenatal classes lecturers should turn their attention to improvement of efficiency of the antenatal classes and educate pregnant women in a...

Students are less interested in science studies in this time. Yet, it is evolving and indispensable field (medicine, genetics). Various fields of biology students are evaluated differently. Botany is not very popular for students and often even for their teachers. More popular may be, for example, human biology, zoology and emerging fields such as genetics. Studying of plants isn't interesting for pupils, memories of learning about plants for them often spending hours with the botanical atlas without practical training in the field or on an excursion. There is a reason to writing this thesis about identification of angiosperms in high school. The thesis deals with different methods used for teaching identification of angiosperm plants at Prague high schools and their effectiveness. It compares the different methods used by teachers of these schools, focuses on with ways of testing plants cognition and the number of species that pupils should be able to recognize. The high school teachers' expectations are compared with the university teachers' expectations of the knowledge of incoming biology students. Effectiveness of teaching was tested by recognizing the required species. Students were asked to recognise the fresh plants. The success rate of students of teachers who use to teach different...

The bachelor thesis deals with cooperation between primary schools and authorities of social and legal protection of children. Social and legal protection of children is provided to children whose parents fail to fulfil the obligations defined in parental responsibility or fail to pursue or abuse the rights defined in parental responsibility. Social and legal protection is also provided to children leading immoral or shiftless way of life or regularly escaping from their parents. The general notification obligation assigns schools to notify local authorities of communities with wide competences of fact that indicate that a child requires social and legal protection. The goal of the thesis is to find out how a primary school cooperates with a children social-law care department in relation to social pathologic behaviour in primary school children. Two research questions were set to reach the goal. I tried to find out in what way cooperation between primary schools and authorities of social and legal protection of children is conducted and whether primary school teachers and social workers consider the cooperation efficient, by means of semi -structured interviews with primary school teachers and with social workers. The data obtained this way were analysed by the open data coding method. The cooperation is based on mutual transfer of information on pupils with problems, reports and written assessment of pupil's behaviour and school result. Social workers and primary school teachers meet at consultation meetings and also at disciplinary boards and case conferences. School teachers and social workers consider their cooperation effective. Certain problems however occur in their cooperation. To make the cooperation more effective two teachers propose more frequent updating of laws and applicable regulations with regard to current needs of children and legislation modification. Social workers propose establishment of a multidisciplinary team, an increase of the number of social workers and presence of a lawyer at the children social-law protection department, education in social and legal protection of children for primary school teachers, and an Internet forum. The results of the thesis may be used for making the cooperation more efficient and for prevention of risky behaviour among primary school children.
