As various social problems have arisen due to the increase of the aging population, one of these problems is the increase of the elderly with dementia. The necessity of systematic and effective dementia management policies has been raised, as the increase of social and economic cost along with the growth of the dementia population. This study examined dementia management policy of Japan, where there is arranged and provided dementia management policy in advance. Especially, this study focuses on the contents of comprehensive promotion strategies for dementia policy(New orange plan) of Japan which was pronounced in 2015, and explores the development strategies for Korea by reviewing this plan. The suggestions through this study are provided as follows: inclusion of the support contents reflecting the dementia patients and their families, the necessity of coping for early onset dementia, organizing system for early diagnosis and prevention such as an early stage of intensive support team, a continuous progression for building the elderly-friendly community and conducting campaign for a deep understanding of dementia, are discussed.

치료레크리에이션은 사회에 있는 많은 사람들이 그 대상이 될 수 있다. 이러한 치료레크리에이션 서비스대상은 특수대상과 일반대상으로 구분된다. 한국치료레크리에이션협회에서 실시하고 있는 대상에서 특수대상으로는 발달장애아동, 물질중독청소년, 가출청소년, 정신장애인, 뇌졸중노인, 치매노인, 장애노인 등이고 일반대상으로는 인터넷 중독성향 청소년, 직장인, 일반인가족, 갱년기 주부, 건강노인, 건강노인부부 등이다. 한편, 우리나라에서는 급속한 고령화로 인하여 가족과 사회의 보호를 필요로 하는 의존적 노인들이 점차 증가하고 있다. 특히 보호의 필요성이 가장 높다고 할 수 있는 치매노인의 절대수가 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 그러나 현대화, 산업화에 의해서 발생하는 핵가족화, 여성의 사회참여 증가 등으로 가족의 노부모 부양기능은 급격히 약화되고 있다. 이에 따라 이들의 의료 및 사회적 보호문제는 노인복지제도의 주요한 과제로 등장하게 되었다. 따라서 본(本) 고(稿)에서는 노인복지제도의 향상의 일환으로 노인을 위한 치료레크리에이션의 실제 활동 프로그램을 제안해보도록 하고자 한다.

본 논문은 요양원·요양병원에 입원한 노인들을 위한 실행능력중심 기능성 스마트 게임기기 및 데이터를 관리할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하고자 한다. 시스템은 증강현실 기반의 스마트맵, 동작 감응형 스마트 스틱, 스마트 명령과 연동하는 로봇, 이러한 게임 콘텐츠로 동작되는 모든 기기에서 나오는 데이터를 수집·관리·분석하는 정보 측정 및 분석 시스템으로 동작되는 시스템을 설계하였다. 이 시스템을 통해 한국이나 일본의 노인병원에서 간절히 필요로 하는 요양보호사 없이 노인들끼리 셀프 진행 가능하고 재미있는 기능성 콘텐츠의 수요를 만족시켜 줄 수 있을 것이다. 또한 치매와 같이 완벽한 치료가 불가능한 질병에도 증상악화를 늦추는 효과가 있으리라 예상한다. 향후 시스템을 개발하여 직접 실험을 하면서 다양한 데이터 수집을 통해 빅데이터로 활용하여 보다 전문적이고 효율적인 재활을 진행할 것이다.

The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of baking and pastry activity programs on the cognitive function of the elderly with dementia. The study was carried out on 19 elderly with dementia who attended K city C daycare center and who provided consent. A total of 10 elderly were assigned to the experimental group, and the other nine were assigned to the control group. To test the effectiveness of the program, this research used the pretest-posttest control group design. The experimental group administered the program from January 2, 2017 to February 28, 2017. However, the control group did not undergo a separate program. Fisher's accuracy test was performed to identify the homogeneity of the experimental and control groups. Mann-Whitney U Test was conducted to identify the homogeneity of the cognitive functions of the experimental and control groups prior to the launch of the program. Wilcoxon Matched-Pairs Signed-Rank and Mann-Whitney U Test were conducted to determine the effects of the program on the cognitive function of the elderly with dementia. As a result, the program verified the effect on the cognitive function of the elderly with dementia. According to these findings, the important issues and limitations of the research are discussed.

최근 우리나라 사회가 고령화로 진행함에 따라 노인성 질환인 치매 환자가 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 치매를 진단하기 위한 방법으로는 뇌 MR 영상을 사용하여 치매에 의해 영향을 받는 특정 뇌 영역인 해마의 위축률을 기반으로 진단 할 수 있다는 보고가 있다. 본 연구에서는 치매 환자 위한 보조적 판별 시스템 개발의 예비 연구로써 뇌 MR 영상 데이터를 3차원으로 가시화하는 것이 목적이며, 최근 대용량으로 획득되는 MR 영상을 고속으로 처리하기 위하여 CUDA를 사용한 병렬 컴퓨팅 구축을 하고 FPS(Frame Per Second)를 측정하여 유용성을 평가하고자 한다.

This study is a descriptive study to investigate the factors influencing the level of cognitive function among elderly living alone according to the presence of dementia risk factors. We conducted a simple questionnaire, GDS-K and MMSE-DS tests to investigate the risk of dementia among 143 elderly people living alone in the community. The results showed that the major factors influencing the cognitive function of the elderly people living alone were education, age, depression status, smoking, leisure activities, and gender. In order to develop strategies for the prevention of dementia in the elderly people living alone, it is necessary to change lifestyle and provide various management methods to identify risk factors that negatively affect cognitive function and to help cognitive health.

In this paper, we introduce the trends in age-related health care services for dementia research due to the rapid aging society. In Korea, the current increase in dementia patients and the disappearance of runaway because social welfare policy is insufficient state and requires a lot of effort in order to protect the patient's guardian. Therefore, In this paper, we propose the need for a monitoring service for dementia patients. The attachment by the wearable sensor and monitor the mobility of the patient causes the protector as possible to trace the location of the patient to monitor the safety of the patient standing with the system provides.

This study of the Wholeness Program relevant to dementia behavior and verification of buffering effects. For the purpose of this, among those who were attending Day Care Centers belonging to Seniors Welfare Center of M1 and M2 located in Seoul. Among those who met all these requirements, 40 senior citizens were finally selected. After carrying out a preliminary test to the selected subjects, 20 elderly of Seniors Welfare Center of M1 were randomly placed as an experimental group, while other 20 people of Seniors Welfare Center of M2, as a control group. The Wholeness Program relevant to dementia behavior was carried out from March 14 to May 30 of 2016, for 12 weeks, twice a week. As for the measurement tool, this study depended on the Korean version of Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE-K), the Korean version of Modified Barthel Index (K-MBI) and the Korean version of Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-K). While the elderly were participating in the Wholeness Program relevant to dementia behavior, they were measured two times in total, before and after the participation in dementia behavior. Based on SPSS-PC (version 21.0), firstly, independent t-test was carried out to understand the homogeneity between the experimental group and the control group. Secondly, matched-pair t-test was carried out between preliminary test and post-test to inquire into the effects of MMSE-K, K-MBI and GDS-K. Thirdly, ANOVA was conducted to confirm the variation (change amount) between preliminary test and post-test. According to the survey results, the Wholeness Program relevant to dementia behavior of the elderly shows overall effects in all spheres of changes of cognitive ability (MMSE-K), changes of physical capacity (K-MBI) and changes of depression level (GDS-K).
