Stroke is a serious disease despite recent improvements in the medical treatments available. Thirty-six stroke patients were interviewed as case and 36 non-stroke patients were interviewed as controls between February 2005 and August 2005 at Daegu S Medical Center. Information regarding the subjects' food habits was collected using the recall method from 5 years before the onset of stroke. Using interview techniques, we investigated how dietary habits and attitude influence nutrient intake. These results were analyzed by the $X^2$, Student's t-test and Chi-square test using the SPSS 12.0 program. This case-control study was performed to demonstrate the relationships among general quality factors (BMI, WHR, and family history of stroke) and lifestyle factors (smoking, exercise and alcohol drinking). The results were as follows. Analysis of the percentage of nutrient intake in terms of meal pattern showed that WHR was significantly higher in the case group than in the control group. Hypertension and diabetes were the most common preceding diseases associated with the risk of stroke. The frequencies of smoking, alcohol consumption (p<0.001) and exercise (p<0.05) were higher in the cases than in the controls. Thus, the findings of this study are consistent with those of previous studies and suggest that people should be advised to control hypertension, smoking, alcohol drinking and obesity in order to prevent the occurrence of stroke as these factors are major risk factors for stroke.

본 논문은 신경망 알고리즘을 사용하여 사람의 필기체 문자를 인식하였고, 이를 바탕으로 뇌졸중 환자의 재활치료를 돕는 시스템을 구현하였다. 뇌졸중 환자의 재활치료에서는 단기간에 환자에게 반복적인 행동 및 학습하는 것이 효율적이라고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 뇌졸중 환자에게 문자 템플릿을 보여주었고, 환자는 문자 템플릿을 인지하고 문자 템플릿과 같은 형태의 문자를 쓰게 하는 방식을 사용하였다. 뇌졸중 환자가 쓴 필기체 문자를 신경망 알고리즘을 사용하여 인식하고, 자주 틀리는 문자에 대해 추천시스템 방식을 사용하여 틀린 문자와 모양이 비슷하거나 같은 문자를 추천해줌으로써 문자 쓰기학습의 반복을 유도하였다. 실험을 통해 제안한 시스템은 뇌졸중 환자의 인지장애와 손 기능장애에 대한 재활치료의 효과를 상승시켰다.

본 연구는 뇌졸중 환자를 위한 다양한 심리치료법을 제시한 것이다. 현재 뇌졸중을 치료하기 위한 대표적인 방법은 물리치료이다. 그러나 환자의 심리적 측면을 고려한 다양한 심리치료법이 환자의 예후에 밀접한 상관관계가 있다는 연구결과가 나오고 있다. 이는 뇌졸중이 정서장애와 감각장애를 갖고 있기 때문이다. 이런 측면에서 볼 때 예술가, 상담가, 문예학자, 교육학자 등이 함께 참여한 뇌졸중 치료를 위한 디지털 콘텐츠 활용 방안이 필요하며, 이는 향후 뇌졸중 치료에 도움이 될 것이다.

This study was conducted to see if a correlation between social support, self-efficacy and quality of life of stroke patients. The study sample was composed of 60 stroke patients who participated in the rehabilitation hospital in G-city and P-city. The survey period for data collection was from August 8.1 - October 10.1, 2017. social support, self-efficacy and quality of life of stroke were administered to those patients. Among the sum of social support, self-efficacy and quality of life marks, a significant correlation was shown statistically at all levels. Through this study, it shows a solid data base is necessary for the improvement of cognitive function in elderly stroke patients.

This study is to compare and analyze the bioelectrical impedance values on the upper extremity (affected and non-affected side) in hemiplegic stroke patients. Experimental subjects were 24 stroke patients with hemiplegia undergoing stroke rehabilitation between October to November, 2015. Prediction marker, resistance, reactance, and phase angle were measured in the upper extremity (affected and non-affected side) of hemiplegic stroke patients, using MultiScan 5000, and then they were expressed as quantified values. The affected and non-affected side of upper extremity in stroke patients with hemiplegia exhibited significant differences in prediction marker, reactance, and phase angle (p<0.05). There were significant differences in the impedance values at the affected and non-affected side of hemiplegic stroke patients. Thus, the possibility of evaluating stroke patients undergoing clinical rehabilitation therapy was suggested.

This project was to investigate cerebrovascular disease incidence relation to alcohol consumption, cigarette smoking and family disease history in the family members of normal and cerebrovascular disease patients, besides patients themselves. Alcohol consumption in the family members of cerebrovascular disease patients was significantly higher, especially in male with thirties, forties and fifties, than those of normal. Mean of daily cigarette smoking in the family members of cerebrovascular disease patients was found to be significantly higher, especially in males with forties and fifties, 1]lan those of normal families. Mean of monthly income of normal subjects was significantly higher than those of cerebrovasndar disease families(normal: $673, 000\pm$ 187, 000 won, cerebrovascular: $483, 000\pm213, 000$ won). A degree to be attacked with cerebrovascular disease was very higher in the family members of cerebrovascular disease patients than normal family. Such cases were much higher in father side than in mother side.

본 논문에서는 뇌졸중 환자의 독립적인 재활운동이 가능할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다. 뇌졸중은 뇌기능의 부분적 또는 전체적으로 급속히 발생한 장애가 상당 기간 이상 지속되는 상태를 의미한다. 이러한 뇌졸중은 상지 운동을 통해 대뇌 운동피질을 활성화하여 재활 할 수 있어, 의학 분야에서는 운동기구를 이용하여 뇌졸중 환자의 재활을 돕고 있다. 하지만 병원이 아닌 가정에서 운동을 하기에는 운동기구에 비용, 작업치료사의 부재와 같은 환경적인 측면으로 무리가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 가정에서 환자가 독립적인 운동을 할 수 있게 MCU와 Android Application을 이용하여 의료진이 환자의 옆에 없더라도 운동이 가능하고 가이드를 제공하는 스마트한 재활운동기기를 개발하였다. 또한 기존의 재활운동기기는 단순히 운동만 할 수 있었다면, 본 연구에서는 Android Application에서 게임을 제공함으로써 보다 즐겁게 운동이 가능하여 재활의지 증가를 기대해볼 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 환자의 운동 데이터가 실시간으로 저장되어 병원에서 의료진이 환자의 운동 상태를 파악할 수 있도록 구성함으로 써 향후 뇌졸중 환자의 재활연구분야에 도움이 될 것이라 생각한다.

This study aims to develop the severity-adjusted length of stay(LOS) model for acute stroke patients using data from the hospital discharge survey and propose management of length of stay(LOS) for acute stroke patients and using for Hospital management. The dataset was taken from 23,134 database of the hospital discharge survey from 2004 to 2009. The severity-adjusted LOS model for the acute stroke patients was developed by data mining analysis. From decision making tree model, the main reasons for LOS of acute stroke patients were acute stroke type. The difference between severity-adjusted LOS from the decision making tree model and real LOS was compared and it was confirmed that insurance type and bed number of hospital, location of hospital were statistically associated with LOS. And to conclude, hospitals should manage the LOS of acute stroke patients applying it into the medical information system.

This study examined the effect of 119 emergency medical technicians' education over one year on the stroke knowledge and subjective perception of stroke care. A survey was conducted from February 17 through July 31, 2018, on 196 men and women who worked as 119 emergency medical technicians in G-do, C-do, and the provinces. The collected data was analyzed by SPSS 20.0 version for Windows. The findings of the study were as follows. First, the general characteristics of the 119 emergency medical technicians were found to have affected their stroke education and their need for professional education, awareness levels of knowledge concerning stroke and their subjective awareness levels of stroke patient care. Second, one-year education for the 119 emergency medical technicians was found to have impacted on their stroke knowledge and subjective awareness levels concerning care for stroke patients. Third, the knowledge of the 119 emergency medical technicians on stroke was found to have influenced their subjective awareness levels of stroke patient care. Therefore, the results suggested that regular education and proper management to improve their knowledge on stroke and subjective awareness.

문제: 뇌졸중 환자를 돌보는 간호현장에서는 급성기 뇌졸중 환자의 증상악화에 대한 조기사정과 적절한 대처가 매우 중요한 문제이다. 그러나 임상현장에서는 이를 객관화하고 수치화하여 모든 의료진이 의사소통할 수 있는 유용한 도구를 사용하고 있지는 못하는 실정이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기위해 NIHSS(National Institute of Health Stroke Scale)를 신경과 진료의사를 중심으로 활용하고 있지만 아직 간호현장에서는 보편적으로 사용하지 않고 있다. 이에 뇌졸중 환자 간호에 NIHSS를 활용하여 뇌졸중 증상악화의 조기사정과 빠른 대처로 궁극적으로는 뇌졸중 환자 간호의 질을 보다 향상시키기 위하여 본 활동이 시도되었다. 목적: 첫째, 간호사의 NIHSS 측정 신뢰도의 현수준을 점검하고 이를 향상시키기 위한 프로그램을 개발 적용한다. 둘째, 간호사가 급성기 뇌졸중환자에게 NIHSS 측정을 통하여 뇌졸중 악화를 얼마나 예측할 수 있는지 분석하고 이를 향상시킬 수 있는 방법을 모색한다. 셋째, 궁극적으로 급성기 뇌졸중 환자의 증상악화의 조기 발견과 치료를 위한 의료진의 올바른 대처지침을 마련하여 이를 적용한다. 의료기관: 경기도에 소재한 대학병원의 뇌졸중 집중치료실. 질 향상 활동: 첫째, 간호사의 NIHSS 측정 신뢰도 향상을 위해 "NIHSS 간호사 교육 프로그램"을 마련하였다. 둘째, NIHSS 측정을 통한 뇌졸중 악화 예측율 향상을 위하여 "뇌졸중 악화 발생 시 의사, 간호사 대처 활동 프로토콜"을 개발하고 추적 관찰하였다. 개선효과: NIHSS 측정 신뢰도는 질 향상 활동 전 89%에서 92%로 향상되었다. 그리고 간호사의 뇌졸중 악화 양성 예측율은 58.7%에서 87.1%로 향상되었다(참고 : 간호사의 뇌졸중 악화 음성 예측율 100% 유지). 즉 "NIHSS 간호사 교육 프로그램 활용", "뇌졸중 악화 발생 시 의사, 간호사 대처 활동 프로토콜"의 적용으로 뇌졸중의 조기 발견 및 치료가 가능하였고, 향후 환자 예후에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.
