In 2011 and 2012, dramatic changes were made to the health care reform in the Czech Republic. As a consequence, almost the complete legislation related to traumatological planning was changed. This reform primarily introduced two new types of operating divisions; a department of emergency preparedness, as for the emergency medical service providers, and a contact point, from the aspect of emergency inpatient care providers. Emergency preparedness primarily processes a concept of the traumatological plan for the emergency medical service and introduces potential changes. The contact point, as a department of the emergency inpatient care with continuous operation, receives calls from the emergency medical service, especially in the event of emergencies and crisis situations. The given Master's Diploma Thesis entitled "Cooperation of the Trauma Centre of the Hospital České Budějovice and Medical Operation Center of the Emergency Medical Service of the South Bohemian Region in the Event of Mass-Casualty Incident" develops a key issue of the interconnection of traumatological plans established by health service providers within the South Bohemian Region and the level of their cooperation. Then the work analyses three mass-casualty incidents which happened in the past within the area and the level of involvement and cooperation of the aforementioned departments, i.e. the Hospital's trauma centre and Medical Operation Centre upon the Medical Emergency Centre of the Region of South Bohemia. The Diploma Thesis proceeds from the qualitative research which is divided into two parts. The first one defines the V1 research question specifying the role of the Traumatological Plan of the South Bohemian health care during the cooperation with the trauma centre under the Hospital České Budějovice and medical operation centre of the Medical Emergency Service of the South Bohemian Region in the event of a mass-casualty incident. By using a comparative method, which assessed the three traumatological plans, the level of cooperation did not exceed more than 20 % owing to the fact that the Traumatological Plan of the South Bohemian health care is out-dated. As a consequence, the answer to the V1 research question was following: The role of the Traumatological Plan of the South Bohemian health care with the cooperation of the trauma centre under the Hospital České Budějovice and Medical operation centre of the Medical Emergency Service of the South Bohemian Region in the event of a mass-casualty incident is insignificant. The second part develops the V2 research question: whether the failure in communication between the aforementioned trauma centre and medical operation centre could have any impact on the injured in the event of a mass-casualty incident. The qualitative research with the use of a method of analysis implemented during the previous mass-casualty incidents and interviews with four operators working for the medical operation centre and four doctors working at the accident, emergency and plastic surgery department provided the second answer to the V2 research question: Failure in communication between the two aforementioned departments could have a significant impact on the injured in the event of a mass-casualty incident. In the end, the thesis refers to the dramatic difference between the ideal traumatological planning and the current situation pointing out the Traumatological Plan of the South Bohemian healthcare which has not been updated for three and a half years since the reform. The given work also describes the issue of the ideal solution to the establishment of contact points in hospitals and compares it with the current situation at the Hospital České Budějovice where the contact point was established only in order to comply with the legislation, i.e. the contact point is based in the operating centre of medical transport.

Theoretical part of the diploma thesis is focused on preparedness and crisis management of healthcare services during occurrence of emergency event with mass health disability. The first chapters provides simple and complete overview of various types of catastrophes, the explanation of emergency events, their causes and outcomes. Theoretical part deals with analysis of Integrated rescue system and puts emphasis on Medical rescue service and its role in mass health disability control in pre-hospital phases. The whole chapter is devoted to recommended procedure of resolving emergency event with mass health disability in the medical facility. Other chapters emphasize on medical facility crisis preparedness focused on traumatological plan. The aim of the diploma thesis was to find out the contemporary state of crisis preparedness of Nemocnice Písek, a.s. emphasizing on traumatological plan and to identify its potential deficiencies as well as to find the best possible solutions that would eliminate the problem to minimum or would remove the problem completely. The second mainstay of the diploma thesis was to evaluate knowledge of medical staff in Nemocnice Písek, a.s. concerning the issue of traumatological planning and evaluate their preparedness to admission of patients during mass health disability and providing quality medical and nursery health care. In my diploma thesis I also looked into the case whether the researched medical facility organises practices of crisis preparedness of traumatological plan in collaboration with the Integrated rescue system, which make the major presumption for quality and professional managing of emergency event with mass health disability. SWOT analysis was used to achieve the set goals, a managerial tool which aims at evaluation of internal and external environment of medical facility through strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats, was used. Quantitative research was also used in the thesis, particularly the method of questionnaire survey which gathered data about traumatological planning awareness and attitude of researched group of respondents. The results of questionnaire survey were surprising. Medical staffs are theoretically aware enough of procedures necessary for handling with emergency event with mass health disability according to the traumatological plan. On the other hand, the negative finding is the fact that 74% of medical staff do not participate in practice to handle mass admission of injured people, which in my opinion shows underestimation of the preparedness of the medical facility for emergency event or crisis. The traumatological plan of the chosen medical facility follows the regulations given by the valid legislation and is regularly updated but the interview with the head doctor of the surgical department MUDr. Marta Horáková reveals the weaknesses of traumatology planning. The traumatological plan contains practical deficiencies so that it is recommended to make it more specific, detailed and adapted to technical disposal of the hospital. In particular, the system of calling out the staff in case of traumatological plan activation during out of working hours has not been fully resolved; furthermore, direction points for the Integrated rescue system and the public have been marked insufficiently or have not been marked at all. The last major weakness is the absence of contact point for the media or the public. In the final part of my thesis I suggested measures for elimination or at least reduction of the crisis points.

The theme of my diploma is the Logistic indemnity of medical interference within the area of multiple victim accidents. The world was struck by natural disasters during its long history. As well as the strengthening of natural disasters, the appearance of the disasters caused by human activity has been increasing in recent times, and at present and their after-affects are more destructive. This diploma is taken as a overall cross {--} sectional study of the topic of logistic indemnity of medical interference within the area of multiple victim accidents. After a brief approach of the history of prehospital care the diploma is focused on legislative regulation of this theme including processing of emergency plans and traumatological plans, financing of crisis set-ups, special training, procedure of salvage and liquidation operations of the units of integrated rescue systems and logistic indemnity of medical interference in the form of material and technical special equipment including human sources and psychological support. This diploma also includes some special problems of this topic (e.g. processing of traumatological plans, financing of crisis set-ups, labels of multiple victim accidents).
