There are many researches related on the brain wave signals to monitor the state of human health. Especially, some patients in the medical hospital need to be monitored in case of emergencies such as a seizure, an epilepsy and so on. To support QoS of the brain wave network in the hospital is a vital issue and the Opnet simulator is used for this experiment. So the efficient network topology is required for the stability of the brain wave network service. The brain waves of the patients are collected from the sensor devices in the network. Two different sensor network topologies are suggested and simulated for the comparison of the network performance. One topology is localized and the other is non-localized network. The simulation is operated with the Opnet simulator.

Objectives : Depressive disorder and anxiety disorder frequently co-occur, even at sub-threshold level. This study aims to identify network structure of co-morbid depression and anxiety at symptom level in nonclinical population and to reveal the central symptoms and bridge symptoms of the co-morbidity. Methods : This study was based on 2022 Asan Youth Mental Health Screening. Patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9) and Generalized anxiety disorder scale (GAD-7) were used to assess depressive and anxiety symptoms of 810 young adult participants from community sample. Network structure of co-morbid depressive and anxiety symptoms was estimated by Isingfit model. Results : Depressed mood, Restlessness and Nervousness were the most central symptoms in the network. Bridge symptoms between anxiety and depression were Restlessness and Irritability. Conclusions : This study revealed key central symptoms and bridge symptoms of co-morbid depression and anxiety in nonclinical population and provided potential insight for treatment targets to reduce co-morbidity.

Objectives : Although subclinical depression symptoms are associated with suicidal idea, most research have focused on clinical depression such as major depressive disorder or dysthymia. The aim of this study is to investigate network structure of depressive symptom and to reveal which symptoms are associated with suicidal ideation. Methods : We used part of data from the seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Participants were between 19 and 65 years of age (N=8,741). Network analysis with Isingfit model is used to reveal network structure of depressive symptoms and most central symptom and edges assessed by patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9). Results : The most two central symptoms were psychomotor activity and suicidal ideation. The strongest edge was psychomotor activity-suicidal ideation. Suicidal ideation also has strong association with depressive mood and worthlessness. Conclusions : These results suggest that psychomotor activity and suicidal ideation can serve as treatment target for subclinical depression and psychomotor activity, worthlessness and depressed mood may be important factor for early intervention of suicidal ideation.

Objectives : The characteristics of depressive symptoms in patients with cancer is different from those in control group. However, few research has focused on the association between depressive symptoms in cancer patients. The aim of this study was to compare the network structure of depressive symptoms between patients with cancer and normal control. Methods : This study was based on cohort data from Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2016-2018. The Patient health Quetionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was used to assess depressive symptoms in 599 patients with cancer and 599 age-sex matched controls. We estimated network structure of depressive symptom using Isingfit model. Results : There was no significant difference of each PHQ-9 item score. There were strong associations between symptoms were concentration problem-psychomotor activity, anhedonia-depressed mood, and depressed mood-suicidal ideation in both groups. Strength centrality of worthlessness was significantly higher in patients with cancer. Conclusions : These results suggest that worthless is associated with other depressive symptoms more tightly in patients with cancer. Worthless can serve as important treatment targets for intervention of depression in patients with cancer.

본 논문에서는 현재 의료부분에 많은 혜택을 주는 PACS라는 시스템을 중소병원에 맞게 설계하였다. PACS는 초기 도입 비용과 불확실한 투자효과에 의해서 많은 개인, 중소병원들이 도입하기 어려워하는 시스템 중 하나였다. 그러한 문제점으로 현재 대형병원에서만 사용 중인 PACS를 중소 병원급 PACS 시스템으로 연구하는데 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 병원 정보 시스템을 수용하면서도 Full PACS의 네트워크 관리모듈의 비중과 시스템 연동을 위한 WorkList Server 기능을 제한하고 특정기기에 대한 생산성 향상을 목적으로 전체가 아닌 단위별로 운영되는 중소병원용 Departmental PACS에 대해 기술하였다.

통신기술과 의료장비의 발달은 환자에 대한 의료혜택의 기회를 확대하고, 최상의 의료서비스를 제공하려는 병원들에 있어서 전산 시스템은 빼놓을 수 없는 병원내 주요 기반시설로서 등장하게 되었다. 멀티미디어 기술과 정보통신의 발달은 의료분야의 정보화 및 자동화 기술 발전에 커다란 영향을 주어 의료 영상 및 각종 의료정보를 고속의 네트워킹 올 통해 전송할 수 있는 PACS(Picture Archiving and Communications System)의 개발을 가능하게 하였다. 본 논문에서는 무선네트워크의 발달과 PDA(Personal Digital Assistants)의 보편화에 따라 PDA를 이용하여 HIS(Hospital Information System)/RIS(Radiology Information System)/PACS의 자료를 검색 및 갱신할 수 있도록 설계하고, 현재 병원의 데이터베이스와 PDA의 연동이 가능하도록 병원관리 에이전트를 분석 및 설계하였다.

With the development of the information and communication technology, the smart hospital has become a new trend in a healthcare industry. This study reviewed the concept, key technologies, applications, and future challenges of a smart hospital, and the user-centered strategies for designing a smart hospital. In smart hospitals, digitally enabled clinical staff will be able to produce better patient outcomes by delivering a more integrated patient-centered care with an efficient manner in connected facilities systems. However, to promote a successful patient-centered smart hospital environment in the future, various obstacles regarding cost, technology, security, and standards should be overcome. It is also necessary for patients and medical personnel to be involved as service users.

The purpose of this study was to explore the implications of the integrated support through the 'health - medical - welfare' network and the specific context of the operation through the experiences of the users who participated in the 301 network project of Seoul northern municipal hospital. To do this, In-depth interviews were carried out with 10 research participants. The data was analyzed by general qualitative research methods. As a result of analysis, users lost their willingness because of living in a vicious cycle of poverty and illness before participating in 301 network services, but through the participation of the service, they were able to receive the integrated support of 'cure-care-life stability'. These experiences ultimately led to the regeneration of the will of their lives. At the basis of this experience were operating strategies and conditions such as the formation of a diverse professional team, the establishment of a linkage system within and outside the hospital, the establishment of a treatment linkage system through the acquisition of treatment subsidies, and the linkage of resources at mediation level. As the attempt to integrate 'health, medical and welfare' with well-coordinated strategies and conditions showed the possibility of complementing the limitation of the health welfare support system in Korea, the extension of the related business was suggested. For this, it suggested the more stable stabilization of the linkage system and the improvement of the institutional aspect.
