Purpose: To demonstrate the importance of comprehensive skin observation as an effective intervention for pressure injury prevention in elderly long-term care hospital patients. Methods: The survey was conducted with 70 nursing staff members working at two long-term care hospitals with 200 beds or less in D city. Data were collected from October 16 to October 23, 2019 and analyzed using descriptive statistics, the chi-square test, and the independent t-test with the SPSS 25.0 program. Results: Nursing care knowledge for pressure injury was similar between the two groups. Conversely, nursing care performance for pressure injury degree of the nursing staff in the hospital using skin observation records performed better than those who did not (t=6.11, p<.001). Furthermore, comprehensive skin assessments in long-term care hospitals using skin observation records showed a lower incidence rate of pressure injury than that showed using general skin assessments (t=-5.28, p=.006). Conclusions: Comprehensive skin assessment is important for pressure injury prevention in elderly long-term care hospital patients. To implement this effectively, it is necessary to devise institutional regulations, guidelines, and systematic education programs.

Purpose: The electronic frailty index (eFI), which is derived from electronic health records, has been recommended as screening tool for frailty due to its accessibility and ease of use. The objective of this systematic review was to identify the prevalence of frailty assessed by the eFI and its influence on health outcomes in older adults with chronic diseases. Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, SCOPUS, Cochrane, Google search, and nursing journals in Korean from January 2016 to December 2022. Results: Twelve studies were analyzed. The eFI score, based on routine clinical data, was associated with adverse health outcomes. The most frequent outcome studied was mortality, and the eFI was associated with increased mortality in nine studies. Other outcomes studied included hospitalization, length of stay, readmission, and institutionalization in relation to hospital care usage, and cardiovascular events, stroke, GI bleeding, falls, and instrumental activities of daily life as health conditions. Conclusion: Early identification of frailty in older adults with chronic diseases can decrease the burden of disease and adverse health outcomes. The eFI has a good discriminative capacity to identify frail older adults with chronic diseases.

Purpose: To explore the scope and method of applying standardized nursing terminologies to nursing diagnosis and problems used in nursing practice. Methods: A descriptive study was done with a retrospective analysis of the nursing records of 141,420 patients that were hospitalized in 4 tertiary hospitals. The nursing diagnosis and problems collected from the records were standardized, and the standardized nursing diagnosis and problems cross mapped with NANDA-I, confirmed in a nursing focus group. Results: 65 (67.7%) of the 96 standardized nursing diagnosis and problems were equal with NANDA-I and included in the 10 domains of NANDA-I. Among 86 nursing diagnosis and problems excluded from the cross mapping with NANDA-I, the 63 terms (73.3%) related to surgery/procedure were the most common. Conclusion: It is meaningful that multi-tertiary hospital nursing diagnosis and problems were standardized and cross mapping with standard nursing terminologies was performed. As for the method of applying standardized nursing terminologies in nursing practice, it is appropriate to use several standardized nursing terminologies complementarily.

This study was conducted to provide basic data for improving nursing management practice by comparing and analyzing the perceptions of nursing students and clinical instructors about the importance of the learning contents of nursing management and their practical experience. The final 343 copies were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test and cross-analysis, targeting 4th-grade students and clinical instructors at three universities. Both nursing students and clinical instructors recognized 'communication', 'interpersonal relationship', 'responsibility', 'trust', and 'morality' as important factors in the evaluation items of practice. Among the top 10 most importantly recognized items among nursing-management practice learning content, six items ('infection control', 'nursing record management', 'patient nursing management', 'drug management', 'patient safety', and 'nursing malpractice') were matched in the two groups. Moreover, clinical instructors recognized that interpersonal relationships and relationship ethics were important, while nursing students chose legal responsibility. As a result of the practical experience analysis between the two groups, nursing students had high experience of indirect participation, but the clinical instructors had a high experience of direct instruction. A plan is needed to reduce the difference by establishing an organic partnership relationship between the university and practice institutions and increase the experience of direct practice of nursing students.

Purpose: To develop the standardized record forms for home hospice team members, made up of nurse, doctor, social worker, minister and volunteer, to share information and communicate efficiently in their specialized field. Methods: A methodological study revising and complementing initially developed record forms by obtaining content validity from the experts in each field. Results: Reflecting total 27 experts' opinions, final 11 types of home hospice team documents (registration form, visiting record form for a nurse, initial assessment form for a doctor, progress note for a doctor, initial assessment form for spiritual care, visiting record form for a minister, care note for social worker, visiting record form for a volunteer, final summary note, initial assessment form for bereaved family, and follow-up record form for bereaved family) have been developed. Conclusion: It is believed that this study initiated of effective communication between home hospice team members and enhanced quality of home hospice service and its records.

위암은 전 세계적인 주요 건강문제이며, 근치적 위절제술은 위암의 표준치료이다. 근치적 위절제술 후 치료목표는 합병증 발생을 낮춰 병전 상태로 빠르게 회복하는 데 있다. 따라서, 근치적 위절제술 후 합병증 발생 여부를 선별하여 예측할 수 있는 성능이 좋은 모델을 개발하는 것은 위암환자의 회복에 매우 중요하다. 랜덤포레스트 모델은 여러 개의 결정트리를 활용한 배깅 방식의 대표적인 알고리즘으로 의료 데이터를 기반으로 한 예측에 있어 뛰어난 성능을 보여 주었다. 그러나 실제 데이터는 불균형이 빈번하게 발생하여 모델의 예측 성능에 영향을 미치므로, 최적의 분류 임계값을 설정하여 다수 클래스에 대한 편향을 줄이는 것이 중요하다. 따라서, 본 연구는 최근 10년 간 일개 대학병원의 전자의무기록 데이터를 활용하여 근치적 위절제술 후 합병증 발생을 예측하는 랜덤포레스트 모델을 개발하고, 임계값 설정을 통해 불균형 데이터에 대한 모델의 성능을 평가하고자 한다.

환자의 생체신호 측정 및 관찰, 영상 위생 등을 포함하는 직접간호는 간호사들의 총 간호활동 시간 중 내과는 48%, 외과는 40% 로 간호사들의 업무 부담이 되고 있다. 또한 의료기관에서 사용되는 의료기기들은 여러 회사에서 구매하여 사용되기 때문에 각 회사마다 상이한 프로토콜을 가지고 있어 하나의 시스템으로 생체신호를 모으기가 쉽지 않다. 따라서 여러 장비에서 생체신호를 실시간으로 취득하여 통합 관리할 수 있는 시스템 개발을 통해 간호사의 직접간호 업무량을 줄여 간호사의 근무환경 개선뿐만 아니라 중증환자의 경우 환자 생체신호에 대한 실시간 원격감시가 가능하고 환자에게서 발생된 모든 생체신호가 데이터베이스 시스템으로 기록관리 됨으로 인해 환자의 생체 신호에 대한 이력 추적관리가 가능함으로써, 양질의 의료 서비스가 가능한 환자케어시스템을 개발하고자 한다.

HIS(Hospital Information System) is a medical information system to support a variety of tasks in hospitals. currently, Many of the hospitals maintain the medical information through the HIS. But It has a problem that each individual people do not confirm medical information correctly. because Medical information based on HIS is use in hospitals. In this paper, we studied plan for the individual medical information management system by confirming your medical history in a web site.

The purpose of this study is to find out what kind of experience and effect the learner - centered team - based learning (tbl)method has on pre - nursing learner's nursing English course. Participants were 12 preliminary nursing learner, it was analyzed through learning result recording, study observation, learning satisfaction, learner's report, peer evaluation. And described the meaning of the learning experience, individual and team scores were analyzed using frequency analysis, paired-t test. The results showed that the score of each team was higher than the score of individual in both. The tbl experience has been a form of intimacy with colleagues, a motivation for learning, self-study, easy to learn the medical terminology felt through repeated learning, to improve their score by having them secondary group test and they remembered it as a pleasant learning time.
