The isolation of an individual and a working group within an organisation

Bakalářská práce se zabývá izolací jedince a pracovní skupiny v rámci organizace. Izolace jedince je zde dávána do souvislosti s jeho schopností adaptace na pracovní prostředí. Také je věnována pozornost faktorům, které mohou výrazně přispět k izolaci jedince a těmi jsou konflikty v rámci pracovní skupiny a špatné vztahy na pracovišti. V další části práce je popsána podstata vzniku izolace pracovní skupiny, která může vycházet z procesů, které jsou v přiměřené míře pro fungování skupiny nezbytné, ve své extrémní míře mohou mít na skupinu negativní vliv. Izolace by měla být vnímána jako impulz ke změně, která úzce souvisí se schopností učení. Z toho důvodu byla do práce zahrnuta i problematika organizační změny, vzdělávání jedinců či využívání kreativních technik. Tyto postupy mohou sloužit také jako prevence vzniku izolace. Své praktické poznatky v této oblasti jsem zahrnula do případové studie popisující situaci pracovní skupiny, která se v izolaci již nachází a v souvislosti s jevy, ke kterým v této skupině dochází, se někteří její členové cítí být izolováni.

Case Study of Physiotherapeutic Treatment of a Patient with Systemic Sclerosis

Author: Eva Bartáková Autor: Eva Bartáková Vedoucí: Mgr. Kateřina Maršáková Název: Kazuistika fyzioterapeutické péče o pacienta s diagnózou systémová sklerodermie Cíl: Cílem této bakalářské práce je nastudovat a zpracovat teoretické poznatky o diagnóze systémová sklerodermie a zpracovat kazuistiku jednoho pacienta s touto diagnózou. Metody: Všechny použité metody vycházely z literatury a přednášek z Fakulty tělesné výchovy a sportu Univerzity Karlovy. Především byly použity technik měkkých tkání, kloubní mobilizace, postizometrické relaxace, proprioceptivní neuromuskulární facilitace, strečink a dechová gymnastika. Pacientka byla navíc v Rehabilitačním ústavu v péči ergoterapeuta. Výsledky: Po 11 terapeutických jednotkách je pacientka samostatná. Hlavní zlepšení spočívalo ve zvýšení rozsahu hybnosti pravého ramenního kloubu a zlepšení měkkých tkání na periferii horních končetin. Závěr: Většina provedených terapií na pacientovi byla účinná.

The isolation of an individual and a working group within an organisation

The main point of the thesis is describe consequences of an isolation of an individual or a working group within an organisation. There could be many reason§ for an isolation of an individual. Very serious are conflicts between employees which could lead to some forms of bullying. The attention is payed to a defence against these negative phenomenon such as a well developed pro§ess of adaptation, quality system of communication within an organisation and responsible approach of an organisation leaders. The thesis also focuses on a working group which gets in an isolation. This state could not have a wTong impact on its members mental helth. But the satisfaction of group members with a current situation could be a problem. The state of an isolation is possible to manage by setting of change process. Although it was described a lot of ways how to peďorm a change its successfirl completion is very difficult and many attempts fail.

Continued Smoking in Lung Transplant Patients: A Cross Sectional Survey

Smoking is associated with a higher incidence of post-lung transplantation complications and mortality. Prior to inclusion on the lung transplant waiting list in the Czech Republic, patients are supposed to be tobacco free for at least 6 months. Our aim was to determine the prevalence of smoking, validated by urinary cotinine, among patients post lung transplantation and prior to inclusion on the transplant waiting list

Selected biomarkers correlate with the origin and severity of sepsis

The microbial etiology and source of sepsis influence the inflammatory response. Therefore, the plasma levels of cytokines (IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10), chemokines (CCL2/MCP-1, MIP-1β), heparin-binding protein (HBP), soluble CD14 (sCD14), and cortisol were analyzed in blood from septic patients obtained during the first 96 hours of intensive care unit hospitalization. The etiology was established in 56 out of a total of 62 patients enrolled in the study. Plasma concentrations of MCP-1, sCD14, IL-6, and IL-10 were significantly higher in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP; n = 10) and infective endocarditis (IE; n = 11) compared to those with bacterial meningitis (BM; n = 18). Next, cortisol levels were higher in IE patients than in those with BM and CAP, and at one time point, cortisol was also higher in patients with gram-negative sepsis when compared to those with gram-positive infections. Furthermore, cortisol and MCP-1 levels correlated positively with the daily measured SOFA score. In addition, HBP levels were significantly higher in patients with IE than in those with BM. Our findings suggest that MCP-1, sCD14, IL-6, IL-10, cortisol, and HBP are modulated by the source of sepsis and that elevated MCP-1 and cortisol plasma levels are associated with sepsis-induced organ dysfunction
