Infekce močových cest vznikající v důsledku katetrizace (CAUTI) představují jednu z hlavních příčin infekčních onemocnění, k nimž dochází během hospitalizace pacienta. Vedle významného dopadu na morbiditu i mortalitu pacienta má tento typ infekce rovněž nezanedbatelné ekonomické důsledky. Vhodná péče o pacienty se zavedeným katetrem má tedy zcela zásadní význam. V tomto přehledovém článku předkládáme nejnovější informace (založené na důkazech) o léčbě CAUTI. Speciální pozornost je věnována různým možnostem prevence a léčby, jako jsou např. programy pro kontrolu infekce a upomínací systémy, povrchové úpravy různých materiálů, profylaxe antibiotiky a vhodná léčba symptomatických infekcí souvisejících s katetrizací. Optimální technologie pro prevenci CAUTI nebyla dosud vyvinuta a ačkoli nejrůznější přístupy vykazují slibné výsledky, zatím nejúčinnější formou zůstává prevence zbytečného zavádění katetru a jeho co možná nejrychlejší odstranění. Při manipulaci s katetry je nezbytné dodržovat doporučení stanovená na základě důkazů a postupovat v souladu s patřičnými guidelines., Catheter‑associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) are a major source of hospital acquired infections with significant consequences to morbidity and mortality and having substantial financial implications. Therefore appropriate catheter care is of utmost importance. In this review we present an evidence‑based update on the management of CAUTI, with special emphasis on the different measures of prevention and treatment, such as infection control programs and reminder systems, surface material modifications of the foreign bodies, antibiotic prophylaxis, and the appropriate treatment of catheter associated symptomatic infections. An optimal technology to prevent CAUTI is still not available and although there are promising results with different approaches the most efficient means are still to avoid unnecessary catheterizations and to remove catheters as soon as possible. Evidence based catheter management and adherence to guidelines is mandatory., and Köves B., Hajdú A., Tenke P., Johansen T. E. Bjerklund
Cíl: Studie se zaměřuje na deskripci současného stavu poznání o resilienci rodičů sluchově postižených dětí. Metody: V rámci výzkumného přístupu EBN (Evidence Based Nursing) byl za výzkumnou metodu zvolen systematický přehled (systematic review). Byly sledovány tyto proměnné: místo výzkumu, metoda výzkumu, velikost vzorku, složení vzorku, cíl výzkumu, sledované proměnné, navrhované intervence, ošetřovatelské diagnózy NANDA-International. Výsledky: Z celkového počtu 280 nalezených studií bylo na základě vyřazovacích kritérií vybráno 26 studií kvantitativního charakteru. Bylo zjištěno, že žádná ze studií přímo s konceptem resilience nepracuje ani ve svých deklarovaných cílech ani v rámci zkoumaných proměnných. Závěry: Zdroje resilience bude možno odhalit pouze na základě kvalitativní sekundární analýzy obsahů studovaných textů., Aim: The objective of the research is to identify the state of knowledge about the resilience of parents of hearingimpaired children in relevant researches published up-to-day. Methods: The basic framework of the presented research is evidence-based nursing. The chosen technique is a systematic review. The following variables were monitored: location of the research, the research method, sample size, sample design, the objective of the research, variables, proposed interventions, NANDA-Int. nursing diagnosis. Results: The core sample consisted of 280 articles. On the basis of elimination criteria, most of them were rejected. Twenty six articles with quantitative methods fulfi lled the set criteria and were analysed. It was found that none of the studies works directly with the concept of resilience, neither in its declared objectives nor in the variables. Conclusion: The resources of resilience will be possible to detect on the basis of qualitative secondary analysis of the contents of the studied texts., Ivana Olecká, Kateřina Ivanová, and Literatura 35
Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) is a disorder characterized by recurrent, stereotypic episodes of nausea, vomiting, and other symptoms, separated by intervals of comparative wellness. These episodes carry on for hours or days. The patient is healthy between the episodes and has no clinical finding. For the treatment of the CVS, antiemetic, antimigraine and sedative medications were used. However, in some cases CVS treatment is very difficult. We report about a young patient, who did not respond to many agents, but was succesfully treated with chlorpomazine. and H. H. Ozdemir, S. Bulut, M. S. Berilgen, O. Kapan, M. Balduz, C. F. Demir
The purpose of study was to analyze clinical and genetic polymorphism of Duchenne/Becker progressive muscular dystrophies among patients with neuromuscular diseases in Uzbekistan. 106 male patients with progressive pseudohypertrophic forms of muscular dystrophy were retrospectively and prospectively analyzed in the period from 2004 till 2014: 93 patients with Duchenne PMD aged from 3 years to 18 years and 13 patients with Becker PMD aged from 10 years to 25 years, who had been examined in the medico-genetic consulting department of the Republican Center “Mother and Child Screening” of Tashkent city. Comprehensive clinical, neurophysiological, biochemical and genetic study of patients as the integral part in the differential diagnosis of Duchenne/Becker progressive muscular dystrophies allows creating the national database on D/B PMD to prevent the birth of children in families burdened by this disease., Umida Tulkinovna Omonova, and Literatura
Periprosthetic fractures are the third most common reason for revision total hip arthroplasty. Surgical treatment of periprosthetic fractures belongs to the most difficult procedures due to the extensive surgery, elderly polymorbid patients and the high frequency of other complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of operatively treated periprosthetic femoral fractures after total hip arthroplasty. We evaluated 47 periprosthetic fractures in 40 patients (18 men and 22 women) operated on between January 2004 and December 2010. The mean follow-up period was 27 months (within a range of 12-45 months). For the clinical evaluation, we used modified Merle d'Aubigné scoring system. In group of Vancouver A fractures, 3 patients were treated with a mean score of 15.7 points (good result). We recorded a mean score of 14.2 points (fair result) in 6 patients with Vancouver B1 fractures, 12.4 points (fair result) in 24 patients with Vancouver B2 fractures and 12.7 points (fair result) in 7 patients with Vancouver B3 fractures. In group of Vancouver C fractures, we found a mean score of 16.2 points (good result) in 7 patients. Therapeutic algorithm based on the Vancouver classification system is, in our opinion, satisfactory. Accurate differentiation of B1 and B2 type of fractures is essential. Preoperative radiographic images may not be reliable. If in doubt, checking the stability of the prosthesis fixation during surgery should be performed. and M. Korbel, P. Sponer, T. Kucera, E.

V současnosti neexistuje standardní léčba cílená na inhibici HER2 pro pacientky s metastatickým HER2-pozitivním karcinomem prsu po progresi na léčbě trastuzumabem a lapatinibem. V retrospektivních studiích se prokázalo, že trastuzumab si může v této situaci zachovávat terapeutickou aktivitu a být validní léčebnou možností pro pacientky v dobrém celkovém stavu., Currently there are no standard therapeutical options for patients with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer after progression on trastuzumab and lapatinib. Retrospective studies have indicated promising activity of trastuzumab retreatment in this clinical situation. Trastuzumab may therefore represent a valid treatment option for these patients in good overall condition., Tomáš Büchler, and Literatura 6
