Purpose: This study aimed to provide basic data for the development of education programs which improve the nurses' infection control performance by investigating the knowledge, performance, and educational needs of infection control among nurses in long-term care hospitals, and analyzing the relationship between these parameters. Methods: This was a descriptive study. A self-reported questionnaire was provided to 153 nurses in 210 long-term care hospitals on Jeju Island. Their knowledge, performance, and educational needs of infection control, data were analyzed using SAS Window(ver. 9.4), t-test, Wilcoxon rank-sum test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Results: Both knowledge (r=0.16, p=.042) and performance (r=0.52, p<.001) of infection control had positive correlations with the educational needs of the infection control. Conclusion: The higher the knowledge of infection control was, the higher the educational needs of the nurses were. However, knowledge of infection control did not correlate with performance of infection control. Therefore to increase the knowledge and performance of infection control, infection control education programs should suit the educational needs and the actual conditions of long-term care hospitals.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare compliance with standard precautions of infection prevention between nurses at accredited Korean medicine hospitals and non-accredited Korean medicine hospitals. Methods: Data were collected from a total of 138 participants (69 nurses from 3 accredited hospitals and 69 nurses from 3 non-accredited hospitals) in January of 2021 using structured questionnaires. Descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, and multiple regression analyses were carried using the SPSS Statistics 24.0 Program. Results: Results showed that the scores of nurses' compliance with standard precautions of infection prevention at accredited Korean medicine hospital (40.54±2.74) were significantly higher (p=.002) than the scores of nurses at the non-accredited Korean medicine hospitals (38.94±3.28). After controlling for covariates, the results were same. In addition, we found that scores of compliance with standard precaution for infection prevention in nurses at hospitals belong to university were significantly high compared to those of nurses at private hospitals. We also found that the scores of compliance with standard precaution for infection prevention in nurses with more than 5 years of experience were significantly higher than those of nurses with less than 3 years of experience (p=.039). Conclusion: Nurses working at the accredited Korean medicine hospitals showed higher scores of compliance with standard precaution for infection prevention. Therefore, it is suggested that the participation in the hospital accreditation program should be encouraged for the Korean medicine hospitals.

Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the effects of simulation-based infection control training on the ICU nurses' perception, clinical performance, and self-efficacy of infection control. Methods: Thirty-eight nurses were assigned into two groups using a career stratified randomization. In the experimental group, the subjects received a simulation-based infection control training, whereas the control group participated in a conventional lecture-based training. Two weeks after the completion of the training sessions, the participants were evaluated for perception, clinical performance, and self-efficacy regarding the infection control. Results: The experimental group that received simulation-based infection control training showed an improvement in perceiving the infection control compared to that of the control group, but the difference was not statistically significant. In terms of the clinical performance, the experimental group and the control group scored $26.05{\pm}3.22$ and $18.53{\pm}3.37$ points respectively, demonstrating a statistical significance (p<.001). There was no significant difference between the two groups in regards to the self-efficacy. Conclusion: The developed simulation-based infection control training showed positive effects in improving clinical performance of infection control over conventional lecture-based training, confirming that a simulation-based training is an effective method in advancing the practical performance of ICU nurses.

2021년 3월 19일 한국생명윤리학회, 한국의료법학회, 한국의료윤리학회, 대한기관 윤리심의기구협의회는 감염병예방법 일부개정안과 병원체자원법일부개정안을 비판하는 공동성명서를 발표하였다. 이들은 공중보건상 긴급조치가 필요한 상황에서도 기관생명윤리위원회 심의는 필수적이며 생략할 수 없다고 선언하였다. 하지만 우리나라 생명윤리법은 국가나 지방자치단체가 공공복리를 위하여 수행하는 연구는 인간대상연구에서 제외하고 있다. 또한 우리나라 법제는 연구와 감시를 구분하는 이분법에 기초하고 있지 않기 때문에 미국 커먼룰의 논의를 그대로 우리나라에 적용할 수 없다. 국가의 감염병 관리 의무와 기관생명윤리위원회의 조화로운 운영을 위해서는 다음 사안들을 고려하여 제도적 대안을 마련해야 한다. 첫째, 관련 학계는 가장 먼저 우리나라 현행 법률의 문제점에 관심을 기울여야 한다. 둘째, 국가는 감염병 관리 의무를 이행하기 위하여 당사자의 동의 없이 많은 업무를 수행하고 있다는 점을 이해하여야 한다. 셋째, 제도적 대안을 제시할 때 우리나라에서의 집행가능성을 고려해야 한다. 제도적 대안에 대하여 의료법학회 등 관련 학계의 심도 있는 논의가 필요하다.

2017년 주요 판결 중에는, 진료계약과 함께 체결되는 틀니제작계약의 법적성질을 분리하여 후자의 경우 도급적 성질이 있다는 판결과 태아보험은 계약체결 후 1회 보험료를 받은 후부터 그 효력이 발생한다는 보험법리를 활용하여 민법에서 논의되는 전부노출설의 한계를 극복한 판결이 선고되었다. 약화사고와 관련하여 의료인의 책임을 인정하는 판결이 증가하면서 직접 약을 제조 교부하는 약사의 복약지도 등을 강화해야 한다는 의견이 있었고, 감염관리와 관련하여 법원이 과실을 부정하는 방향으로 사실관계를 해석하거나 적용한 데 대한 비판과 함께 병원감염사건의 특수성에 비추어 병원감염 관리 및 그 피해 구제를 위한 제도적 장치마련, 소송법상 증명책임 전환 등 제도의 개선이 필요하다는 의견이 있었다. 설명의무 관련 판결에서는 이미 설명이 되었던 부분이나 설명을 하지 않더라도 해당 진료행위를 수행하였을 것이기 때문에 설명의 대상이 되지 않는다는 판례 등 설명의무의 대상과 관련한 판결들이 다수 선고되었고, 손해배상의 범위와 관련하여 유방을 흉부 장기로 보아 다발성 반흔 구축 및 변형을 장해로 인정한 사건이 선고되어 많은 논의를 불러 일으켰다. 진단서와 관련한 의료법 해석에 대한 대법원 판결은 법률 규정이 가진 해석범위를 넘은 유추해석이라는 지적이 있었다.

본 실험은 경기 북부 일부 지역의 계란에서 미생물 오염도를 측정하여 계란의 위생 상태를 파악하고자 하였다. 조사 자료로서는 대형 마트에 유통 중인 계란 중에서 서로 브랜드가 다른 계란을 대상으로 하였다. 계란의 난각에 존재하는 일반 세균수를 측정하였다. 그 결과 $3.4{\times}10^4cfu/m{\ell}$로 상당히 높은 일반 세균수가 검출되었다. 다음으로는 식중독 지수의 중요한 지표가 되는 대장균 및 계란으로 인한 식중독에서 주요 원인 균으로 작용하는 살모넬라균의 오염 여부를 파악한 결과, 한 브랜드의 계란에서 대장균이 검출되었고, 살모넬라균은 검출되지 않았다. 또한 각 브랜드에 계란에서 검출된 세균을 분리 동정 한 결과, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas mendocina, Alcaligenes xylosoxidans, Alcaligenes faecalis, Enterobacter cloacae 등이 분리되었다. 이 세균들 중 일부는 사람에게 병원성을 나타내거나, 면역력이 약한 노약자나 어린이에게 기회감염 또는 병원 내 감염을 일으키기도 하는 것으로 알려졌다. 계란의 난각에서 분리된 대장균의 병원성 여부를 판정하기 위하여, 대장균의 DNA를 분리하여 PCR을 수행한 결과, 병원성 대장균들에서 특이적으로 나타나는 유전자형을 가지고 있지 않는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 위의 결과들을 종합하여 보면, 시중에 유통중인 계란의 난각에서 비록 살모넬라균과 병원성 대장균은 검출되지 않았지만, 사람에게 감염을 일으킬 수 있는 여러 병원성 세균들이 검출됨으로써 계란의 유통 및 판매에 더욱 철저한 위생관리가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
