병원감염에 의한 경제적 손실정도나 미국에서 보듯이 교통사고로 사망하는 사람보다 병원감염에 의한 폐혈증으로 사망하는 사람이 월등히 많은 점 등을 미루어 보아 병원감염이 공익적 성격을 다분히 갖고 있으며 꼭 필요한 기본 자료를 얻기 위해서도 국가적 차원에서 전국적인 대단위 조사를 실시하고 병원감염의 중요성을 인식시켜야 한다.

The aim of this study was conducted to investigate the level of awareness and performance of the physical therapists on nosocomial infection and evaluate potential factors as associated with awareness and performance in order to provide fundamental data for the development of program and policy on the prevention of it. The data were collected from 405 physical therapists. The research instrument was self-administered standardized questionnaire including general characteristics, education status, necessity of the education on nosocomial infection, and awareness and performance for prevention of nosocomial infection. Responses were determined as 5-Likert scales and data were summarized as percentage, mean and standard deviation. Data were analysed using independent t-test, ANOVA and Pearson's correlation coefficient(${\alpha}=0.05$). The results of this study show that most physical therapists have not received education on nosocomial infection. For this reason, they have a low level of the awareness and performance on nosocomial infection, but they strongly recognize the necessity of the program and education for the prevention of nosocomial infection. Thus, these program and education are needed in each college as an academic curriculum, as well as in hospitals.

병원성 Fusarium에 의한 아스파라거스 감염은 비병원성 Fusarium을 5일과 7일 전에 접종하였을 때 방제효과가 있었다. 비병원성 F. oxysporum은 F. moniliforme에 대하여 방제효과가 있었고, F. solani는 F. oxysproum에 대하여 방제효과가 있음이 밝혀졌다. 실험에 사용된 Fusarium 균들은 모두 주근과 측근의 말단 부위, 상처부위, 그리고 표피의 세포벽 사이를 통하여 감염하였다. 경우에 따라 감염하는 동안 appressorium과 유사한 구조를 형성하기도 하였고, 직접 감염하는 경우도 있었다. 병원성 그리고 비병원성 Fusarium 균 모두 공통적으로 생장점 부위를 통하여 감염하였다. 병원성이 강한 Fusarium 균의 경우 비병원성 균들보다 감염의 속도가 빨랐고 더욱 생장이 왕성하였다. F. solani는 생장속도나 기주 조직 침입속도가 매우 느렸다. 기주 감염의 결과 처음에는 cortical rot을 유발시켰고 나중에는 tracheary elements를 감염하고 결국은 조직의 괴사를 유발하는 것이 관찰되었다. 비병원성 F. oxysporum은 표피조직에 두터운 균사층을 형성하였고, 이는 병원성 Fusarium 균에 대한 방제효과를 나타내는 원인을 제공한 것으로 여겨진다. F. solani는 측근의 생성을 촉진시켜 표면적을 증대시킨 것으로 여겨진다. 결론적으로 AVFO와 F. solani를 이용하여 아스파라거스에 발생하는 병원성 Fusarium균의 침입을 저지할 수 있는 생물적 방제가 가능함이 밝혀졌다.

This study was conducted on nursing staff at care hospitals to confirm the mediating effect of health beliefs between the knowledge of nosocomial infections management and the execution of nosocomial infections management. This study was carried out on nurses and assistant nurses working at five care hospitals located in Busan, and finally 212 questionnaires were analyzed through SPSS 25.0 and SPSS Procee Macro. The results of the study showed that knowledge of nosocomial infections management is significant in the execution of nosocomial infections management(B=2.90, p<.001), and the influence of health beliefs was shown to be significant as well(B=.52, p<.001). Knowledge of nosocomial infections management has a direct effect on the execution of nosocomial infections management, and was also shown to have an indirect effect on the execution of nosocomial infections management through health beliefs, confirming partial mediating effects. This study is significant in that it provides the baseline data necessary for the effective execution of nosocomial infections management of nursing organizations in care hospitals by verifying the mediating effects of health beliefs in terms of the effects of knowledge of nosocomial infections management perceived by nurses and assistant nurses working in care hospitals on the execution of nosocomial infections management.

This study was to identify the level of perception and practice of hospital infection control among nurses at geriatric hospitals for the convergent approach. Data were collected from October 29 to November 3, 2012, using hospital Infection control questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using a t-test, ANOVA and Correlation. The mean values of hospital infection control practice were lower than that of perception, the differences were statistically significant. There were statistically significant differences in the perception on age, education, existence of guidelines for infection control, and in the practice according to the existence of guidelines. There was a statistically significant positive correlation between perceptions of hospital infection control and practice. Therefore, it is necessary to provide continual opportunities for systematic, professional, and practical education, as well as to develop relevant programs aimed at improving the capacity of hospital infection control.

This study surveyed the medical staffs in Busan with regard to their awareness and to their performances of infection control in health care facilities. As a result of the survey, the level of awareness and performances showed a high scale regardless of the relation to infection control department, infection control guidelines, and infection control education in the health care facilities. Especially, the group educated on the infection control had shown a statistically significant result of 0.001 in the awareness and performances. The main reasons to failure on infection control practice resulted with a heavy workload and a lack of time. Moreover, it is concluded that the self-consciousness on the infection control have increased in reason that the 99.7% responded a need to infection control education. In general, level of the performance analyzed lower than the level of awareness and it seems that reforming such policy feasible is needed and being active in performing infection control individually is necessary in order to decrease the nosocomial infection.

동물 실험과 환자에서 M. fermentans 감염은 염증반응을 동반하거나 하지 않으며, 병변이 나타나지 않은 것에서부터 전격성 감염에 이르기까지 다양하다. 이와 같은 현상이 나타나는 것은 두 가지 기전 중에 어느 하나 일 것으로 Lo등과 Montagnier 등은 추정하고 있다. Mycoplasma 감염이 숙주의 면역기구의 주된 성분에 손상을 주거나, 이 병원체가 감염된 숙주의 면역감시기구를 피할 수 있는 특수한 생물학적 특성을 가지는 것이다. AIDS관련 mycoplasma 감염의 가능한 역할은 첫째 mycoplasma는 AIDS환자나 면역 기능부전인 사람에서 단순한 기회적감염이거나, 둘째 M. fermentans나 M. penetrans와 같은 mycoplasma의 감염은 HIV-1과 같은 virus의 병원성을 증강시켜주거나, 셋째 mycoplasma가 숙주의 면역성을 저하시키는 병원성일 가능성을 가지고 있다.

This study was conducted to identify the degrees of awareness and performance of hospital infection control of early stage nurses working in medium and small sized hospitals. This survey was conducted for 15 days from Sep. 15 to Sep. 30, 2017. Data were then analyzed by SPSS Win 22.0 to determine the mean and SD, as well as to conduct t-tests, ANOVA, and Scheffe's test. The result were as follows: 1. There were significant differences in awareness of hospital infection according to urinary tract infection, respiratory infection, and disinfection of contaminated goods managements with age. 2. There were significant differences in performance of hospital infection according to hand washing (working department), fluid therapy (education need p<0.001), urinary tract (position), and respiratory infection management (position p<0.001). 3. The mean score of awareness and performance regarding hospital infection were significantly different (all items p<0.001). According to these results, systematic education for improving awareness and performance regarding hospital infection control by nursing staff in medium and small sized in hospitals should be conducted. In addition, organizational efforts to increase the number of early stage nurses and improve the usability of personal infection control devices should be encouraged.
