The degree work is concentrated on basic characterization of nosocomial infections, on the prevention thereof and on the observance of antiepidemical measures in the sphere of stomatology. Although these infections were largely related to the mortality and morbidity in health service establishments in the past, their occurrence goes down significantly these days. The adoption and observance of fundamental hygienic principles and rules was of decisive importance in this sphare. The neglect of these principles can endanger the health and life of the patient seriously end bring about the increase of costs for further therapy of the patient. It is therefore necessary even at present time ot pay great attention to these diseases and to the prevention thereof. The research part of the work is devoted to the evaluation of preventive measures connected with nosocomial infections in stomatological practice. The literature search in the theoretical part follows therefore this orientation too. The theoretical part deals at first with the most frequent agents of nosocomial infections, that can be encountered. The attention is concentrated on brief characterization of these diseases, their sources and on the process of spreading. Then, the basic classification of these diseases and the concrete methods of prevention are mentioned. In the sphere of stomatology, the work resumes the basic historical relations and identifies particular sectors of this discipline. In conneciton with nosocomial infections, their impact upon the stomatology as well as the need of protection against these infections are discussed. It means epidemiological measures, importance of hand hygiene, necessity of sterilization, desinfection and of cleaning. The aim of the work is to point out the importance of prevention as to the origin and spreading of these infections and the necessity to observe the epidemical principles at the work in dental surgeries. The performed investigation resumes established facts about the observance of hygienic and epidemiological regimen and that not only as to the general judgement on problems, but in consideration of local differences, of differences in the duration of practice carried out by individual stomatologists and in relation to the frequency of conducted hygienic inspections as well. Problematic areas as to the nosocomial infections and as to the observance of decreed provisions by stomatologists are defined here.

In my diploma thesis, I have focused on relation concerning the weight of school bags and poor posture among the population of school children. The aim of my thesis was to chart the weight of school bags at the first grade of primary school in the region of České Budějovice and Český Krumlov in relation to overloading the children?s locomotive system. A partial objective of this research was charting the content of these school bags. In my diploma thesis, I have described the locomotive system, the function of its parts and I have further analysed the development of the locomotive apparatus in each term of child?s growth organism with the emphasis on term of the younger school age. In this thesis, I have described the right posture and the most common deviations of posture from a physiological point of view. I have considered the risk factors that lead to the rise of poor posture and basic diagnostic tests, which are connected to this issue. Part of my thesis has been dedicated to the inappropriate load of younger school age children in school and the ways that this can be avoided. I have also summarised the issue of school bags. I have described how should the right kind of school bag should look like and what is required by the Czech technical norm. An additional issue I have mentioned in my thesis was the content of these school bags. In the last unit of the theoretical part of my work, I have done some research regarding the moving regimen of children in school and the ways of avoiding rising muscle imbalance. For the researching part, I have used a method of objective measuring and weighing of pupils and their school bags in each class of the first grade of those chosen schools supplemented by the information from a questionnaire given to the parents of these children. The results were processed by means of Microsoft Excel. This research has confirmed two out of four of these hypotheses; the other two were disproved. According to the data from this research, it is possible to confirm that the children were overloaded by their school bags in all classes of the first grade of primary schools, where the research was held and this fact confirms the first hypothesis. Other confirmed hypothesis was the fact that children are not allowed to keep their school supplies in their respective schools. More than half of parents answered that their children have to carry their school equipment with them every day. A positive finding was that children prepare their school bags every day with some help of their parents. Parents sometimes prepare the bags themselves or at least they check a content of the bag. This fact disproved one of the hypotheses. The last hypothesis assumed that parents don?t know about any risks connected to overloaded school bags. This hypothesis was also disproved. The parents of these children were able to state at least one of possible risks in most of cases.
