This study investigated the characteristics and factors affecting inpatient infants, children, and adolescents who experienced falling, using NHDIS data from 2008 through 2017, The study analyzed data of 116 patients who were under 18 and who experienced injuries (KSCD, S00-S99) by falling (KSCD, W00-W19). Frequency analysis, cross-tabulations, and multiple regression analysis were conducted, using SPSS 23. There were more boys than girls, and most of the falls occurred at the ages of over one to under six years old. Most of the children had respiratory diseases, and most had open wounds or bruises due to falling. Also, most of the falls were related to the bed. In the factor analysis, age (β=.318), the main diagnosis (β=.231), and injury (β=.169) except gender affected falling. This suggests that it is necessary to conduct fall prevention education for children, considering the developmental stage characteristics and age group. It is necessary to screen the risk group such as children with a disease with relatively less restriction of activities or with a hyperactive disorder, and to develop a related manual. Hopefully, the results will be used as the basic data for fall prevention education and creating a fall prevention manual according to the characteristics of children's developmental stage for patients who need hospitalization, their caregivers, and the relevant medical team.

This study aims to analyze the factors affecting the length of stay in elderly pediatric inpatients in traffic accidents. We used Korean National Hospital Discharge In-depth Injury data on the discharged from 2012 to 2016. Statistically significant factors affecting the length of stay are admission route, Charlson Comorbidity Index(CCI), injury parts, operation, results, hospital area, and beds for hospitals. The length of stay was shorter in the case of the admission route of the outpatient department than the emergency room, the results were not improved or death rather than improved, and the bed size was 500-999 beds or over 1000 beds rather than 100-299 beds. However, the length of stay was longer in the case of CCI score was 1-2 or over 3 rather than 0, injury parts were other parts rather than head/neck, when the operation was yes, and when the hospital area was a province, metropolitan rather than Seoul. This study intends to understand the medical characteristics of inpatient to prevent pedestrian traffic accidents in accordance with the population aging. Based on this finding, we wish to be used as the basic data for the establishment of policies to effectively manage traffic safety and medical resources in consideration of the characteristics of the elderly people.

This study was conducted to analyze factors affecting the length of stay in children with injuries by determining relationships between length of stay and characteristics of children(aged 0 to 12) with injuries. 7,804 patients aged 0 to 12 who participated in the Korea Nation Hospital Discharge In-Depth Injury Surveys, got a diagnosis of sequelae of injuries and of other consequences of external causes(S00-T98), and were discharged between 1 January 2016 and 31 December 2020 were investigated. A frequency analysis, independent samples t-test, and ANOVA were performed. Also, to identify factors affecting the length of stay, a regression analysis was performed. The average length of stay for the patients investigated in this study was 5.5 days. The length of stay for school-age children(aged 7 to 12) and children who had either public or private coverage was higher than that for preschoolers(aged 0 to 6) and children who didn't have public or private coverage, respectively. The length of stay for children admitted to a hospital in a rural area(Jeolla-do or Gyeongsang-do) was higher than that for children admitted to a hospital in a metropolitan area and the length of stay for children admitted to a hospital that had 100-299 hospital beds was relatively long. However, children who first visited a hospital for outpatient care stayed relatively short in hospital and children who had been burned or injured in traffic crashes stayed relatively long in hospital. Children who got a secondary diagnosis and had a principal procedure or who died after being discharged were in hospital for a long time. The findings of this study shall be useful, as they identified characteristics related to the length of stay for Korean children with injuries and factors that determine the length of stay for those children by analyzing the national dataset, or more specifically, the data from the Korea National Hospital Discharge In-Depth Injury Surveys. The risk of child injuries can be easily reduced by taking actions to prevent them and providing safety education programs. The present study has provided essential baseline data for the provision of aggressive care for child injuries and the establishment of a range of policies for child injury prevention.

본 연구는 운전자가 음주 후 운전여부를 결정할 때 가장 중요하게 고려하는 음주운전결정요인에 대해 탐색하고, 이들 요인들에 대해 음주운전자와 비 음주운전자 간 차이를 보이는지를 알아보는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 집단심층면접과 기존 문헌 고찰을 통해 얻은 음주운전에 영향을 미치는 인지적·사회심리적 요인들을 종합하여 설문지를 작성하였다. 전체 조사대상자는 음주운전 경험이 있는 운전자 136(남자 122명, 여자 13명)명이었다. 연구결과를 살펴보면, 우선 운전자들은 음주 후 운전여부를 결정할 때 1) 음주정도, 2) 음주 후 경과시간 정도, 그리고 3) 다음날 이동시의 불편함, 4) 집과의 거리 정도를 가장 중요하게 고려하는 것으로 나타났다. 다음으로 음주 후 운전여부를 결정할 때 중요하게 고려하는 요인들에 대해 음주운전자와 비 음주운전자 간 차이를 검증해 본 결과, 크게 세 가지 차원에서 차이를 보이고 있다. 첫째, '잘못된 신념'에 해당하는 요인들로 음주운전자들이 비 음주운전자들에 비해 음주단속에 걸리지 않을 것이라는 신념을 가지고 있으며, 음주단속과 교통사고 발생가능성을 낮게 평가하고, 자신의 운전실력을 과신하는 경향이 있다. 둘째, '목전단기이익 추구 경향성'에 해당하는 요인들로 음주운전자들이 비 음주운전자들보다 음주 후 차를 두고 갈 경우 야기되는 비용부담, 다음날 이동시의 불편함 그리고 집과의 거리 정도에 더욱 민감한 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 음주운전자들이 비 음주운전자들보다 마신 술의 양(음주량)에 대해 더욱 과소평가하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 이와 같은 연구결과들을 바탕으로 향후 음주운전에 대한 개선 방안을 함께 제시하고자 한다.

This study aimed to analysis factors related to in-hospital death of injured patients by patient safety accident. A total of 1,529 inpatients were selected from Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention database(2013-2017). Frequency, Fisher's exact test, t-test, ANOVA, logistic regression analyses by using STATA 12.0 were performed. Analysis results show that the mortality rate was lower for female than male but the mortality rate was higher for the older age, the higher the CCI, head (or neck), multiple, systemic damage sites, internal and others, metropolitan cities based on Seoul and 300-499 based on the bed size of 100-299. Based on these findings, the possibility of using the in-depth investigation of discharge damage from the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as a data source for the patient safety survey conducted to understand the actual status of patient safety accident types, frequency, and trends should be reviewed. Also, it is necessary to prevent injury and minimize death by identifying factors that affect death after injury by patient safety accident.

This study investigates science teachers' perceptions of science practices for science assessment. Science practices have information about students' ability to understand scientific knowledge and to perform scientific inquiry. For this study, seven science teachers, who have served for more than five years in secondary schools in Seoul, were chosen. A structured questionnaire consisting of twenty-seven items were used in National Assessment of Educational Achievement. And then, in-depth interviews followed. Co-workers analyzed and discussed the questionnaire and interviews. As results show, science teachers tend to determine science practices based on materials and way to present materials included in questions. Science teachers tend to recognize science practice as different, depending on information and thinking process, which is expected in solving them. In addition, they have a variety of the level of definition and understanding about science practices.
