In this paper, We analyzes the image along the platform (Open Eye), through prevention of dementia or stroke patients and cognitive rehabilitation for the proposed system. This way through the camera image according to user's movement gained OpenCV image processing library, which is based on motion analysis, a part of this rehabilitation is to apply to cognitive rehabilitation. Therefore, this paper proposes a new image analysis system has been exposed to the elderly or stroke patients with dementia, their hand gestures through which patients can detect the image of the cognitive rehabilitation to help them in the analysis of the image analysis system is proposed.

This study was done to identify the effectiveness of a proper positioning on musculoskeletal complication on patient with Stroke by using a quasi-experimental study. A total of 18 patients were selected as a subject from June 1st to October 31th 1998 who had been hospitalized at Intensive Care Units in K medical center. A experimental group consists of 8 patients who were given proper positioning every two hours. A control group consists of 10 patients who were given traditional positioning. The collected data were analyzed by SPSS windows including $X^2$-test (Fisher's exact method), Wilcoxon Rank Sum test and McNemar test. The result of this study was summerized as follows : 1) The experimental group with proper positioning has shown lower shoulder pain score, dorsiflexion contracture score, Shoulder subluxation score and higher Range of Motion and than the control group. 2) The experimental group with proper positioning has shown lower muscle pain score and edema score than the control group, but it was not statistically significant.Therefore, proper positioning could be applied as an independent nursing intervent ion for patients on Stroke in order to facilitate rehabilitation.

The main objectives of this study were to know the prevalence of cerebrovascular diseases, to find the important risk factors of cerebrovascular diseases. This study is a part of Eumseong Community Health Project supportes by GTZ(West German Goverment). 116 perceived cases of cerebrovascular diseases were first screened by health interview and examinations and 80 cases were diagnosed as a cerebrovascular group. For comparison, 80 cases were matched with their neighbor controls of the same sex and the similar age. 1. The prevalence rate for cerebrovascular diseases was 476.3 per 100,000 population which is considered to be very high compared with that of other countries. Age adjusted rate for cerebrovascular diseases was 261.6 per 100,000. 2. Among the risk factors examined for the association with cerebrovascular diseases by case-control study, and analysed by paired marginal test(McNemar's $X^2$-test) and odds ratio, only hypertension showed high significant statistical association.

Objectives : Cervical myofascial pain syndrome (C-MPS), a key aspect of Visual Display Terminals (VDT) Syndrome, leads to acute and chronic pain due to muscle shortening, potentially causing headaches and movement disorders. This study examines the effectiveness of Pharmacoacupuncture at the intersection of the Splenius Capitis (SC), Levator Scapulae (LS), and Serratus Posterior Superior(SPS) muscles under ultrasound guidance, known as the "SLS triangle" in treating C-MPS. Methods : Three patients (aged 30 to 37) with acute C-MPS presented at two Korean medicine clinics with severe neck pain and restricted cervical rotation. The evaluation of symptoms before treatment, immediately after treatment, and one day after treatment was conducted using the cervical rotation Range of motion (ROM) and the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for cervical pain. Treatments included Acupuncture, Cupping therapy, Chuna manipulation, Physical Therapy, and Pharmacopuncture (Jaha-geo extract, 2cc at the SLS triangle). Results : All three patients showed significant improvement post-treatment. Immediately after treatment, Patient 1's NRS improved from 7 to 2, Patient 2's NRS improved from 4 to 1, and Patient 3's NRS improved from 6 to 2. Directly after the procedure, there were no significant adverse reactions except for one patient experiencing temporary dizziness. When the patients were followed up by phone 24 hours later, no adverse reactions were reported. Conclusions : This study demonstrates that ultrasound-guided pharmacopuncture can significantly reduce pain and improve cervical rotation in patients with cervical myofascial pain syndrome. The findings suggest this non-invasive treatment is both safe and effective, warranting further research through larger-scale clinical trials to validate its efficacy and establish standardized protocols.

A major concern associated with carotid artery angioplasty and stenting (CAS) is a periprocedural distal cerebral embolization. To prevent distal embolization, embolic protection devices (EPDs) have been developed. However, the risk of cerebral embolism after protected CAS in patents with a vulnerable plaque is controversial and either a silent or a symptomatic stroke can occur despite the use of EPDs. Here, we report a case of a massive cerebral microemboli after a protected CAS using a distal filter EPD for a vulnerable plaque with a lipid rich necrotic core and intraplaque hemorrhage.

최근 다양한 연구를 통하여 전신 진동기 운동이 신체의 근골격계, 순환계 및 내분비계 등에 효과적임이 보고되고 있다. 특히 전신 진동운동이 노인의 낙상예방, 파킨슨 및 뇌졸중 환자와 같은 신경학적 질환자의 자세조절 및 기능향상을 위한 재활치료 방법으로 효과가 있다고 밝혀졌다. 그러나 아직까지 전신 진동운동에 적합한 의료 허가를 받은 제품이 없으며, 일부 유사한 진동감을 제공하는 기기를 위주로 제작되고 있는 상황이다. 추후 의료기기의 수요를 고려할 때 고령사회로의 진입 속도가 빨라짐에 따라 노인들에게 적합한 진동기의 개발이 필요하다. 노인들은 운동참여에 보수적이며 사회성이 떨어지기 때문에 운동기의 기능적 요건과 더불어 참여를 유도하는 환경 요인을 함께 제공할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 진동 운동기를 이용한 운동 효과를 분석하고 전신 진동운동에 적합한 가상현실 컨텐츠를 제시하였으며, 국내외 개발 및 연구 중인 기기와 컨텐츠 개발 동향을 제시하였다.

요즈음은 인터넷이나 대중매체를 통해 일반인들도 다양한 질병에 대한 많은 정보를 얻을 수 있다. 이에 속하는 것으로 당뇨병은 대표적 만성질환이며 누구나 한번쯤은 들어 본 적이 있는 질환일 것이다. 현대와 같이 고도로 의학이 발달한 상황에서도 만성질환은 완치되는 것이 아니고 평생 관리를 해야하는 질병이기 때문에 많은 환자들이 살아가는 동안 서서히 지치게 되고 관리를 소홀히 하게 됨으로써 당뇨병성 신경병증, 망막증, 신증, 대혈관병증(뇌졸중, 심혈관질환, 말초혈관질환) 등과 같은 합병증의 발생으로 일상생활에 지장을 받게 된다. 따라서 당뇨병환자는 일생 주기적으로 검사와 함께 자신에게 맞는 약을 복용하고 경우에 따라서는 인슐린 주사까지 맞음으로써 지속적인 혈당관리를 하여 합병증의 발생을 최소화 하는 것이 필요하다. 이상에 언급한 다양한 합병증 중 가장 중요한 사망원인은 심혈관질환으로 40세 이후에 발생한 당뇨병환자에서 전체 사망 원인의 50% 이상을 차지한다. 또한 대부분의 당뇨병성 만성합병증이 적극적인 혈당관리로 효과적인 예방이 가능한 반면 심혈관질환과 같은 대혈관합병증은 혈당조절이 잘 되고 있는 환자에서도 당뇨병 발생 기간과 무관하게 발생하고 또 여러 혈관에 걸쳐 다발적이고 광범위하게 발생하므로 원인이 되는 다른 위험요소들에 대한 관리가 함께 이루어져야 한다.
