대부분의 정신과적 위기 (자살시도.도주 공격적 파괴적행동.싸움 등)는 노여움이 원인이 되는데 심한 불안. 초초나 또는 규칙등을 위반하였을 때에. 고지식한 병원직원들의 마구 다툼에 의해서 자신의 권리나 존엄성을 모욕 받았다고 생각될 때 그것에 대한 반응으로 일어나게 된다. 이러한 환자들의 흥분및 공격적 파괴적 행동들에 대해서 우리 간호원들은 과연 겁내야 하며 곧 진정제를 투여하거나 강박의를 입혀야 하는가 하는 것이 이 연구의 촛점이다. 본인은 이러한 환자들의 위기상황에 성급한 행동들이 주어지기에 앞서 과학적이고 체계적인 간호적 이해가 따른다면 환자들의 태도는 휠씬 달라질 수 있을 것이라는 가정하에 국립정신 병원에서 1973년 6월 1일부터 9월30일까지 실험군 10명. 통제군 10명의 환자에게 관찰기 (5일). 간호기(5일). 후반기 (5일)로 나누어 실험군에는 간호기에 유효적절한 과학적 체계적 간호를 실시하고. 통제군에는 실시하지 않음으로써 그 효과도를 검증하였다. 환자의 치료에는 간호적 치료이외에도 약물요법, 정신치료. 충격요법 등 관계 요인이 많으므로. 이러한 기간동안의 환자의 행동변화가 간호적 치료 (Nursing Therapy)에 의해 변화된 것인가를 확인하기 위해 검증하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. (P<.01) 표6. 7에서 관찰기. 간호기. 후반기 동안의 정신과 응급 행동의 빈도는, 실험군에서는 15.4. 7.0. 2.9 로 감소되어 p <.01의 수준에서 의미 있는 변화임이 밝혀졌고, 통제군에서는 10.6. 6.9. 6.6으로 행동빈도가 감소되었으나 p >.05의 수준에서 의미 있는 변화가 아님을 보이고 있다. 위의 결과들로 미루어 본 연구는 다음과 같은 결론을 내릴 수 있을 것이라고 생각한다. \circled1환자의 위기 행동에 관한 사전의 이해없이 무조건의 안정제 투여와 강박의 사용은 금해야 할 것이다. \circled2유효 적절한 자학적 체계적 간호치료 (Scientific & Systematic Nursing Therapy 로서 정신과적 위기는 해 결될 수 있을 것이다. \circled3간호원은 치료적 요원의 역할을 담당할 수 있을 것이다. 본 논문을 시종 지도하여 주신 이부영선생님과 조언을 주신 이은옥 선생님. 이귀향 선생님. 그리고 국립정신병원의 김종해선생님, 보건대학원의 이영환 선생님께 진심으로 감사를 드리며. 아울러, 실험에 협력하여 주신 모든 분들께도 감사를 드립니다.

This study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of long-term(6 Month) aquatic exercise through home nursing care demonstration on body weight, body fat, pain, muscle strength, self-efficacy and quality of life. Twenty-one women with rheumatoid arthritis were enrolled in the study. The sample was restricted to women in order to increase homogeneity. All patients were stable medication regimens in rheumatism center. The data was collected from October, 1994 to November, 1995. The data were analyzed Mean, Standard Deviation, $x^2$ Test, Mann-Whitney U-Wilcoxon Rank Sum W Test, Wilcoxon Matched-pairs signed-ranks test using SPSS $pc^+$ program. The results of this study were as follows : 1. There was no significant difference between the control and the experimental group on body weight. 2. There was no significant difference between the control and the experimental group on body fat. 3. There was no significant difference between the control and the experimental group on pain(RAI). 4. There was no significant difference between the control and the experimental group on muscle strength. 5. There was no significant difference between the control and the experimental group on quality of life. But in the experimental group, finding from additional analysis showed significant difference in the score of quality of life between pre and post experiment. 6. There was no significant difference between the control and the experimental group on self-efficacy. The findings in this study were not support the positive effect of long-term aquatic exercise in women with rheumatoid arthritis. A further study is necessary to determine the pure effect of aquatic exercise except the effect of home nursing care.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify moderating effects of work-family conflict in the relationship between job, organizational, career characteristics and turnover intention among nurses working in small and medium-sized hospitals. Methods: A self report questionnaire survey was completed by 286 nurses working in five small or medium-sized hospitals in P city. Data were gathered during October, 2014 and analyzed using the SPSS 21.0 program. Results: Work-family conflict had significant moderating effects between job, organizational, career characteristics and turnover intention of nurses working in small or medium-sized hospitals. Career commitment was the biggest factor in reducing turnover intention. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that work-family conflict and career commitment are important factors in turnover intention among nurses working in small and medium-sized hospitals. Therefore, to understand job and organizational career characteristics of nurses in small and medium hospitals, consideration must be given to the role of conflict in the nurses' workplace and homes. Support from the organization focusing on career development, and provision of an innovative system for the environment of small hospitals are needed.

Purpose: This study investigated evidence for the effects of community-based cognitive rehabilitation programs for demented elderly. Methods: The literature review covered studies between 2004 and 2014, and searched international databases including Ovid-MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. The Risk of Bias Assessment Tool for Non-Randomized Studies was used by two reviewers to evaluate independently the quality of the selected articles. Results: Eighteen studies were selected through a systematic search of the literature. About three quarters of the studies showed that the community-based cognitive rehabilitation programs provided by nurses were significantly effective in enhancing cognition among elderly individuals with dementia. Conclusion: Based on these results, we suggest that nurse is an appropriate profession to manage cognitive rehabilitation or cognitive enhancement programs for demented elderly individuals. Therefore, the current system in which caregivers provide cognitive rehabilitation programs for demented elderly individuals must be reformed.

Purpose: This study was done to identify the effects of stress management program on perceived stress, geriatric depression, and somatic symptom in elderly Korean subjects. Methods: A pre-post test design with a nonequivalent control group was used. Fifty elderly Korean subjects with mild depression were recruited from the registerants at four public senior citizen centers within S-gu in Seoul. They were randomly allotted to the experimental group(n=25) and control group(n=25). The intervention was performed for one hour each week at each center for 5 weeks. The effects were measured by Perceived Stress Scale, Geriatric Depression Scale-Korean, and Patient Health Questionnaire-15. Results: Perceived stress and depression were significantly reduced in experimental group. The somatic symptom was not significantly different in the experimental group. Conclusion: The stress management program may have merit in improving mental health of elderly Koreans, although this conclusion is equivocal pending further well-controlled studies that include mediation techniques such as conversion therapy and health gymnastics.
