The Purpose of the study: define the indications and contraindications to, combined operation in locally invasive tumor of the rectum. The Material and methods of the study: we have analysed results combined operation in cancer of the rectum with germination in genital organs, performed in department of coloproctology in National Oncological Scientific centre during 20052009 years. Under observation were 118 women at age from 21 to 68 years. This before 45 years 26 patients, from 46 to 59 years 54 patients, 60 and above years. The Results and their discussion: Postoperative complications suppurativeinflammatory character appeared beside 36 patients (30,5%), most of all after abdomeno perineal extirpation of rectum (35,5%) and abdominoanal resection of the rectum (33,3%). In lesser extend after front resection of the rectum and after operation Hartman (28,5% and 22,7%). The General lethality has formed 3,4%, have died after combined operation 4 patients from 118 operated patients. The Conclusion: thereby, brought data evident that such important factors, as frequency of the origin relapse (28%), 5year probability of survival (37,1%), under combined interference and operation of the standard volume in the cancer of the rectum practically the same., H.

The Material of the study has formed 78 sick, found on stationary treatment in Republican Scientific Centre Coloproktologii since 1992 on 2010. As it is seen, from table, from 78 sick mans was 58(74,3%), womans 20(25,7%). 19(24,3), sick were at age from 15 before 20 years, 49(60,2%) at age from 21 before 40 years and 13 (16,6%) sick from 41 before 60 years. The Main complaint sick at arrival were a stubborn constipations, which noted beside 70 (89,7%) sick, including absence of the independent chair existed beside 55(70,5%), but beside 54(69,2%) sick were noted periodic stomachache, growing on measure of the absence of the chair. The Ballooned belly existed beside all 78 (100%) sick moreover beside 20(25,6%) of them flatulence was constant. The Sickness and retching existed beside 24(30,7%), weakness, reduction to capacity to work beside 52(66,6%), increasing of the temperature of the body beside 10(12,8%), paradoxical diarrhoeas beside 6(7,6%) sick. Endoskopicheskiy method (rectoromonoscopy, colonoscopy) turned out to be else less informations 51,8% coincidences of the diagnosis. So we biopsy on Svensonu executed beside all sick, entered with suspicion on disease Girshprunga. In our observations from 78 sick beside 42(53,8,1%) were aboveanalni, beside 20(25,6%) sick rectalis, beside 13(16,6%)rectosigmoideys , beside 2(2,5%) leftside and beside 1(1,2%) sick subtotalis form hipoganglios. At biopsies on Svensonu on observations, from 78 sick, beside 44(56,4%) is revealled hipoganglios, but beside 35(44,8%) аganglios rectum. As can be seen from presented tables, from 78 sick beside 68(87,2%) us is executed onemoments radical operation, 10(12,8%) sick is as far as possible made resection hipoor aganglionarnaya of the zone, decompensate part of the large intestine and is formed colostomy. In all events at operations. The Remote results executed radical operation on cause disease Girshprunga traced from 1 before 10 years beside 57(73%) sick. The Results of the surgical treatment were valued on scale Vezika: good, satisfactory and unsatisfactory. In our observations beside 46(80,7%) sick results came in well, beside 10(17,5%) satisfactory and beside 1(1,8%) sick was an unsatisfactory result., Mirzahmedov M. M., Ahmedov M. A., Sapaev D.

Competencies develop and changes throughout a persons life, they can gain or lose, going through various age stages. Their development does not end in youth, but continue on through the adult life. The ability to thing and reflect those thoughts specifically come forward in the center of structure of competency, which grows at the same time as the individual matures. One of the competency types is health competency. Health competency is a relatively new concept; it is not sufficiently researched. Aim of the study was to determine the factors of an adult individual health competency. 827 respondents participated in the study, in the processing of data was used SPSS. Was used factor analysis, analysis of variance with ANOVA and KruskalWallis test and Pearsons correlation. It was found that health competency is affected by several factors. These are: health education, health behavior, and the value of the environment. Each of the sets was distributed to key factors. It is the main factors affecting the health competence, but additional factors are: gender, education and income., Inara Upmale, Andrejs Geske, and Literatura
Mediterranean spotted fever (MSF) in Bulgaria shows increasing severity, especially in patients over sixty years. As T lymphocytes are the primary effector cells in MSF and are altered by the ageing process we aimed to specify the changes in their numbers in elderly patients. We performed a clinicoepidemiological study, haematological and biochemical analysis of 132 patients of 60+ and 30 patients between 19 and 57 years with MSF. We investigated the cell immunity of 20 patients of 60+ using immunofluocytometry. The control group consisted of 10 younger patients and 10 healthy individuals of 60+. MSF showed more unfavourable course in the elderly.We found T-lymphocytes depletion in all patients with MSF. Activated T lymphocytes were increased in elderly patients with MSF. We found significant differences between the number of activated T lymphocytes in elderly patients and healthy elderly persons. The observed T-lymphocytes depletion in MSF corresponded to the disease severity. The increase in the activated T lymphocytes in patients over 60 years contributes to an adequate immune response., Margarita Gospodinova, and Literatura
Cieľ: V práci sme sa zamerali na vedomosti pacientov s astmou v oblastiach self-manažmentu tohto ochorenia a najmä na vplyv faktoru dĺžky trvania tohto ochorenia na úroveň vedomostí o self-manažmente. Zároveň sme zisťovali vzťah medzi úrovňou vedomostí o self-manažmente ochorenia a kontrolou astmy. Metodika: V tejto prierezovej štúdii bolo do súboru zaradených 297 respondentov. Na testovanie kontroly astmy a úrovne vedomostí pacientov sme použili valídne nástroje a to Dotazník vedomostí o self-manažmente astmy pre dospelých (Measuring asthma self-management knowledge in adults) a Test kontroly astmy (Astma Control Test ACTTM). Na štatistické spracovanie dát boli využité: Pearsonov Chi-kvadrat test nezávislosti a Spearmanov korelačný koeficient. Výsledky: Až 220 z 297 respondentov (74,07 %) preukázalo nedostatočné vedomosti, a to konkrétne v doméne Vedomosti o liečbe astmy. V oblasti Manažment bronchiálnej astmy malo nedostatočné vedomosti 191 respondentov (64,31 %). Početnosť správnych odpovedí zároveň naznačuje, že úroveň vedomostí v doménach self-manažmentu astmy, významných pre kontrolu ochorenia, bola vyššia v skupine pacientov diagnostikovaných v priemere jeden rok ako v skupine, ktorá trpí ochorením dlhšie (6-10 rokov), i keď rozdiel nie je štatisticky významný. Záver: Nedostatky vo vedomostiach astmatikov, vyššia frekvencia chýb v oblastiach self-manažmentu, vrátane self-monitoringu a horšia kontrola astmy pri ochorení diagnostikovanom viac ako 6 rokov naznačujú, že je potrebné v klinickej praxi venovať čas a pozornosť reedukácii, opakovanému posúdeniu vedomostí a praktických zručností (aplikácia metód self-manažmentu, inhalačnej techniky) v skupine už skôr diagnostikovaných astmatikov., Aim: This project is aimed to find out the patient knowledge with asthma in the area of self-management of this disease and particularly the influence of the length of the disease on the knowledge level about self-management. At the same time we tried to find out the relation between the knowledge level of the asthma self-management and control of asthma disease. Methods: The total number of 297 adult asthma patients were included in the cross sectional study. The valid instruments Asthma Control Test and Measuring asthma self management knowledge in adults were used for testing asthma control and the degree of patient knowledge in self management of asthma. The Chi-squared test and the Spearman´s rank correlation coefficient were used for statistical processing of data. Results: A total of 220 out of 279 respondents (74%) showed poor knowledge of selfmanagement of asthma, particularly in “Knowledge of asthma treatment” domain and 191 patients in “Management of bronchial asthma” domain (64%). Patients who had been diagnosed one year ago had better level of knowledge in selfmanagement of asthma than those who had been treated for asthma longer than six years (6-10 years). This difference was not significant, but it was related to those domains which has significant influence on asthma control (domains 2-5). Conclusion: Poor knowledge of asthma patients, higher frequency of errors in self management and worse control of asthma in patients with asthma longer than six years imply the need for better and repeated education, check of patient knowledge and skills for self-management, use of peak flow meter included in this group of patients., Michaela Dingová, Petronela Osacká, and Literatura
Cieľ: Cieľom práce je identifikácia vybraných faktorov ţivotného štýlu u sestier a pôrodných asistentiek na Slovensku a následne zistiť či majú faktory ako vek, vzdelanie, bydlisko a práca na zmeny vplyv na identifikované faktory ţivotného štýlu. Metodika: Výskumný súbor tvorilo 417 sestier a pôrodných asistentiek pracujúcich v zdravotníckych zariadeniach na Slovensku. Zber údajov bol realizovaný neštandardizovaným on-line dotazníkom. Pri spracovaní údajov boli pouţité štatistické metódy. Výsledky: Priemerný vek respondentov bol 42,34±8,61 rokov. Zaznamenali sme frekvenciu konzumácie konkrétnych druhov potravín u sledovaného súboru. Zistili sme, ţe pravidelne sa stravuje 47,5 % sestier a pôrodných asistentiek. Dostatočnú pohybovú aktivitu dodrţiava 18 % respondentov. Podľa hodnotenia Body Mass Indexu má 46,3 % sledovaného súboru nadhmotnosť aţ obezitu I. stupňa. Nepotvrdil sa signifikantný vzťah medzi vekom, vzdelaním, bydliskom a vybranými faktormi ţivotného štýlu ako sú pravidelnosť stravovania, pohybová aktivita, hodiny relaxu a spánku. Ako významný behaviorálny faktor ţivotného štýlu sa javí pravidelnosť stravovacích návykov vo vzťahu k práci na zmeny, taktieţ vo vzťahu k relaxu a spánku. Záver: Prácu na zmeny sme identifikovali ako rizikový faktor ţivotného štýlu v nami sledovanom súbore. Výsledky potvrdili, ţe je potrebné venovať zvýšenú pozornosť podpore zdravého ţivotného štýlu u sestier a pôrodných asistentiek v oblasti osobnej aj profesionálnej., Aim: The main aim of the research is the identification of specific lifestyle factors among nurses and midwives in Slovakia. Subsequently we want to determine if the factors such as age, education, establishment and shift work affect the identified lifestyle factors. Methods: 417 nurses and midwives working in hospital s in Slovakia participated in our research. We used non-standardizing questionnaire, on-line form. Data were processed by descriptive and analyses statistic method. Results: The average age of respondents was 42.34±8.61 years. We recorded frequency of specific food consuming in our sample. We have found out that regular eating habits have 47.5% nurses and midwives. Accurate physical activity is follows by 18% respondents. According to the Body Mass Index had 46.3% of followed sample overweight and obesity I. grade. Study results did not confirm statistic correlation between age, education, establishment and specific lifestyle factors such as regular eating habit, physical exercise, relax and sleeping. Regular eating habit related to shift work relaxation and sleep, shows up as significant behavioural lifestyles factor. Conclusion: Shift work was identified as a risk factor of lifestyle in our sample. The results point on the need to increase promoting of healthy lifestyles among nurses and midwives in their personal and professional area., Lucia Dimunová, Viola Mechírová, and Literatura
Melanocytární léze vykazují značnou morfologickou heterogenitu. Jejich diagnostika je náročná i přes současné využití moderních histopatologických a imunohistochemických metod. Významným přínosem v diagnostice melanocytárních lézí je zavedení molekulárně genetické metody fluorescenční in situ hybridizace s použitím čtyřbarevné sondy značící geny CCND1, RREB1, MYB a centromeru chromozomu 6. V letech 2008–2012 bylo v naší laboratoři úspěšně metodou fluorescenční in situ hybridizace vyšetřeno 160 vzorků různých typů melanocytárních lézí, 44 névů a 116 melanomů. Změny asociované s diagnózou melanomu byly prokázány u 116 vzorků (72,5 %), normální nález u 41 vzorků (25,6 %), ve dvou případech bylo rozhodnutí na hranici hodnotitelnosti metody (1,2 %) a v jednom případě se jednalo o vyšetření recidivy melanomu v jizvě, který byl svým nálezem atypický (monozomie chromozomu 6) (0,6 %). Na základě dosažených výsledků byla stanovena senzitivita metody 96,6 % a specifita metody 91%. Tyto výsledky ukazují, že fluorescenční in situ hybridizace je vhodnou metodou pro zajištění přesné a rychlé diagnostiky nejednoznačných melanocytárních lézí. Právě rychlost a správnost diagnózy je u vysoce maligních melanomů zásadní a má neoddiskutovatelný vliv na prognózu a úspěšnost léčby pacienta., Melanocytic lesions exhibit significant morphological heterogenity, making their diagnosis difficult, although both sophisticated histopathological and immunohistochemical methods are used. The introduction of molecular genetic method flourescence in situ hybridization (FISH) has contributed significantly to the diagnosing of melanocytic lesions. Between 2008 and 2012, we studied a total of 160 samples of different types of melanocytic lesions, including 44 nevi and 116 melanomas, using a four-color probe mix for CCND1, RREB1 and MYB genes and for the centromere of chromosome 6. A positive result was found in 116 melenoma samples (72.5 %) and a negative result in 41 samples (25.6 %). A borderline value was found in two samples (1.2 %), and an atypical finding (monosomy of chromosome 6) was seen in a melanoma recurrence in one case (0.6 %). Sensitivity and specificity were 96.6 % and 91 %, respectively. These results show that FISH is a suitable and relatively low-cost method for accurate, rapid diagnosis of ambiguous melanocytic lesions. The speed and accuracy of diagnosis of highly malignant melanomas are crucial and have great impact on the prognosis and success of a patient‘s treatment., Jana Dvořáčková, Jana Žmolíková, Jan Mužík, Magdalena Uvírová, and Literatura
Cíl: Přesnost screeningových škál pro vyhledávání pacientů s rizikem vzniku dekubitů byla u nás dosud zkoumána jen okrajově. Cílem bylo navázat na pilotáž zabývající se inter-rater reliabilitou (shodou mezi posuzovateli) Škály Bradenové (ŠB) a zjistit shodu mezi dvěma posuzovateli u většího vzorku respondentů. Metodika: Dva posuzovatelé nezávisle na sobě hodnotili 60 pacientů hospitalizovaných s neurologickým onemocněním pomocí ŠB. Celková skóre (max. 23 bodů) byla dichotomizována (riziko versus absence rizika) dle doporučeného cut-off skóre (18 bodů). Inter-rater reliabilita byla vyjádřena pomocí koeficientu kappa (κ), a to pro dichotomizovaná celková skóre i pro skóre v jednotlivých položkách škály. Výsledky: Koeficient κ byl pro dichotomizovaná celková skóre 0,564 (95% konfidenční interval [KI] = 0,182; 0,946). V jednotlivých položkách škály byl κ následující: „smyslové vnímání“ 0,557 (95% KI = 0,306; 0,808); „vlhkost“ 0,454 (95% KI = 0,142; 0,766); „aktivita“ 0,613 (95% KI = 0,425; 0,801); „mobilita“ 0,091 (95% KI = – 0,127; 0,309); „výživa“ 0,283 (95% KI = 0,095; 0,471); a „tření a střih“ 0,554 (95% KI = 0,240; 0,868). Závěr: Inter-rater reliabilita dichotomizovaných celkových skóre byla střední úrovně (κ = 0,564). V položce „aktivita“ lze shodu mezi posuzovateli považovat za poměrně dobrou (κ = 0,613); v ostatních položkách však byla nižší. Jsou prezentovány faktory, které mohly tyto výsledky ovlivnit., Aim: The accuracy of the screening scales for identification of patients who are at risk of developing pressure sores has, so far, received only marginal attention in the Czech Republic. The aim was to extend a pilot study that focused on inter-rater reliability of the Braden Scale and to determine inter-rater reliability for a larger patient sample. Methods: Two raters performed independent assessments of 60 patients hospitalized with a neurological disease, using the Braden Scale. Total scores (max. 23 points) were dichotomized (at risk versus not at risk) using the recommended cut-off score (18 points). Using the kappa (κ) coefficient, inter-rater reliability was expressed for the dichotomized total scores as well as for scores obtained for each category of the scale. Results: For the dichotomized total results, the κ coefficient was 0.564 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.182; 0.946). For the individual categories, the κ coefficient was as follows: “sensory perception” 0.557 (95% CI = 0.306; 0.808); „moisture“ 0.454 (95% CI = 0.142; 0.766); „activity“ 0.613 (95% CI = 0.425; 0.801); „mobility“ 0.091 (95% CI = – 0.127; 0.309); „nutrition“ 0.283 (95% CI = 0.095; 0.471); and „friction and shear“ 0.554 (95% CI = 0.240; 0.868). Conclusion: For the dichotomized total scores, moderate inter-rater reliability (κ = 0.564) was obtained. For the category “activity”, the inter-rater reliability was quite good (κ = 0.613); for other categories, it was lower. Factors that may have affected the results are discussed., Petra Mandysová, Jana Pechová, Edvard Ehler, and Literatura
Cieľ: Zámerom štúdie bolo zistiť, či dĺžka praxe ovplyvňuje mieru syndrómu vyhorenia v nami sledovanom súbore sestier a pôrodných asistentiek. Metódy: Zvolili sme štandardne využívaný dotazník na stanovenie miery syndrómu vyhorenia Maslach Burnout Inventory, ktorý on-line formou mohli vypĺňať sestry a pôrodné asistentky zaregistrované v Slovenskej komore sestier a pôrodných asistentiek. Vzorku tvorilo 844 sestier a pôrodných asistentiek. Výsledky: Hlbšou analýzou sa potvrdil štatisticky významný vzťah medzi mierou syndrómu vyhorenia a dĺžkou praxe. Sestry a pôrodné asistentky pracujúce v období od 1–3 rokov a od 5 rokov majú signifi kantne vyšší výskyt syndrómu vyhorenia. Závery: Zistené výsledky môžu uplatniť najmä zamestnávatelia v oblasti prevencie syndrómu vyhorenia., Aim: The aim of this study was to explore whether the length of employment aff ects the rate of burnout syndrome in nurses and midwives. Methods: In our research, we employed the standardized Maslach Burnout Inventory questionnaire, which was completed on-line by nurses and midwives registered in the Slovakian Guild of Nurses and Midwives. The sample consisted of 844 nurses and midwives registered by the Slovakian Guild of Nurses and Midwives. Results: Our results suggest signifi cant relation between the employment length and burnout syndrome. Nurses and midwives working from 1 to 3 years and more than 5 years had signifi cantly higher prevalence of burnout syndrome. Conclusion: The results of our study could be utilized by employers in the fi eld of prevention of burnout syndrome., Lucia Dimunová, Iveta Nagyová, and Literatura 18
