The development of medicine and technology related to the level of healthcare as a whole is historically accompanied with changes in nursing practices that have increased their demands over the years. This caused a specific need for the diversification of nursing activities and their specialization. The aim of this work is to map out specialized nursing processes of the field of internal medicine from their formation to the present, showing healthcare as a progressive sector, where new knowledge and technologies induce the need for new activities that the medical nursing staff must manage for the benefit of the patient. This basic objective will be documented in selected specialized nursing care activities divided into three professional sections - development of oxygen therapy, catheterization of the bladder and venous blood collection. The basis for the diploma thesis is the development of specialization of nursing practices on the basis of economic, political, cultural or religious influence. The results of the research show that the development of nursing practices has been constantly changing since their inception, not only in connection with the development and availability of quality aids, but also by the effort to create the most effective nursing process with regard to the needs of the patient as well as the non-medical medical staff. The diploma thesis also shows the professional competencies that have been added to the general nurses in the context of time. In the first part, dealing with the development of oxygen therapy, there is considerable interconnection of this process with the war period. There was also a significant difference in the distinctions in competences in the provision of oxygen therapy to nurses in the Czech Republic and abroad. Despite the fact that the non-medical healthcare professionals is currently preparing and subsequently applying Oxygen treatment on their own, they can only do so on the basis of a doctor's office. In contrast, for example, in the 1930s, in the USA, the nurse was regulating the oxygen alone within its competencies. The second part of the diploma thesis was oriented on the characteristics of the development of bladder catheterization. Particularly in this section is the development of nursing competencies, as it was just bladder catheterization, which in history was the sole competence of an experienced physician. The diploma thesis demonstrates not only the development of the procedure, the aids, the reduction of risks accompanying this method, but also the gradual assistance of the non-medical medical staff until the definition of the period when they are fully competent to perform this task. The last part of the diploma thesis is focused on the development of venous blood collection in order to obtain sufficient quantity for blood analysis. In this area, is not onlz the development of the nursing process in connection with the technique or aids, but also the necessity of observing the aseptic approach. The result of the presented work represents a significant contribution, because only with the knowledge of nursing techniques in the whole range, people can avoid mistakes from history. Also, the view of the selected nursing practice in the context of time brings knowledge of the inactivity of development and is thus the undisputed motivation of non-medical health personnel to participate in the constant innovation of nursing practices and thus to deepen the specialization and level of nursing care.
