Abstract

A bioterrorism attack(BT) attack is the deliberate release of viruses, bacteria, fungi, and toxins used to cause illness or death in people, animal, and plants. Therefore, the healthcare workers are those who will take the main role in BT outbreak situations. The purpose of this study is to investigate current status of education for BT preparedness and response in health-related colleges. It is important to provide the BT preparedness and response to the health-allied students in case of unexpected BT outbreak. The questionnaires were collected from March 10 to June 10 in 2007 via mai l. Approximately 97.6% of the health-related professors answered that they had no experience of bioterrorism education. The contents of the bioterrorism curricula should contain the followings : definition and characteristics of the emergency and disaster, definition of bioterrorism, history of bioterrorism, general characteristics of bioterrorism, etiological agents of bioterrorism, bioterrorism response, systematic response, and medical response. Through these data, we will develop the disaster and bioterrorism preparedness curricula.

바이러스, 세균, 곰팡이, 독소 등을 이용한 생물테러는 사회불안을 일으키고 사람들에게 치명적인 병을 일으킨다. 2001년 911테러를 겪으면서 생물테러 대비에 대한 중요성이 강조되고 있다. 따라서, 보건관련 종사자들은 이런 생물테러 발생이 있을 때 주도적인 역할을 하는 사람들이다. 본 연구의 목적은 보건관련 교수들에게 설문을 통해 생물테러 교육현황에 대해 알아보고자 하는데 있다. 보건관련 대학에서 학생들에게 생물테러 대비에 대한 교육을 실시하여 향후 언제 발생할지 모르는 생물테러에 대한 대비와 대처능력을 갖게 하는 것이 중요하다. 보건관련 대학에서 학생들에게 생물테러 대비에 대한 교육을 실시하여 향후 언제 발생할지 모르는 생물테러에 대한 대비와 대처능력을 갖게 하는 것이 중요하다. 연구는 2007년 3월 10일부터 6월 10일까지 3달간 우편설문조사로 진행되었다. 응급구조학과 23개교, 임상병리학과 25개교, 기타 보건관련학과에도 우편으로 설문을 배포하였다. 응급구조학과, 임상병리학과, 기타 보건관련 교수들의 97.6%에서 생물테러 교육 경험이 없었다고 응답하였다. 생물테러 교육의 내용으로 비상사태 및 재난의 정의와 특성, 테러 및 생물테러의 정의, 생물테러의 역사, 생물테러의 일반적 특성, 생물테러 가능병원체의 종류, 대비, 체계적 대응, 의학적 대응이다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 생물테러 교육과정을 개발하여 재난 대비 교육을 실시하고자 한다.
