Purpose: Nineteen articles were analyzed to gather opinions and nursing implications about NIPT recently launched. Methods: Nineteen articles were selected from EBSCO (eBook business collection), Google Scholar, and two Korean academic d-bases with key words 'prenatal screening testing', 'prenatal genetic diagnostic testing', NIPT or 'cell free DNA (cfDNA)'. Authors developed a framework for analyzing the 19 articles including opinions and suggestions for future implications. Results: Eleven articles written by the first author affiliated with medicine or genetics, viewed NIPT as promising because of safety, accuracy, early detectability and cost effectiveness. Articles written by journalists or authors affiliated with history and ethics were concerned with the possible risk of ELSI (ethical, legal, social issues), erratic interpretation of test results, and lack of genetic counseling service. Conclusion: With consideration of Korean clinical, and legal circumstances, not only pregnant women and families but also health professionals must prepare for clinical NIPT implications including updating prenatal genetic testing, counseling services, protecting ELSI and amulticultural team approach.

Purpose: This study examined the influencing factors on antenatal depression among pregnant women. Methods: This was a cross sectional descriptive study with 255 pregnant women who visited a general hospital in a metropolitan city for their regularly scheduled check-up. Measurement tools employed were the Korean version of Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the food habits, and the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Socio-demographic variables and the status of high risk pregnancy were identified. Influencing factors on antenatal depression were identified using a stepwise multiple regression analysis. Results: The mean score of antenatal depression was $7.2{\pm}5.0$; 18.4% with mild depression, 5.9% had moderate depression, with 0.8% identified with severe depression on BDI scale. Influencing factors on antenatal depression accounted for 47.8% of the total variance which consisted of quality of sleep, marital satisfaction, food habits, gestation periods, sexual satisfaction, high risk pregnancy, and age. Conclusion: Findings show that antenatal depression should be monitored on a regular basis during early pregnancy and in high risk pregnancy if possible, and quality of sleep and food habits should be incorporated in the management of antenatal depression.

여성건강은 개인 뿐만 아니라 가족, 사회, 국가적으로 대단히 중요하다. 왜냐하면 미래사회의 자원인 인간을 출산하고 양육하는 것과 직접적으로 관련이 있기 때문이다. 여성은 스스로 자신의 몸을 지키고 건강행위를 위한 결정을 할 수 있어야 한다. 특히 출산과 관련하여 여성은 자신의 건강을 유지 증진 할 수 있는 능력이 있어야 한다. 한나라의 발전수준은 모자보건의 수준으로 결정하며 영아 사망률과 모성사망률은 국가 발전의 수준을 대표한다. 본 연구는 한국의 여성과 어린이 건강 실태를 살펴보았다. 모성사망률과 영아사망률은 여성의 산전간호 수진률의 증가와 영아 예방접종률의 증가로 점차 감소하고 있다. 그러나 모유수유률의 감소와 영아의 사고발생률이 증가하는 것은 자라나는 어린이의 건강을 위협한다. 어린이 사고는 환경과 돌보는 어른들의 부주의에 의해서 발생되는 경우가 대부분이므로 어린이 사고를 방지하고 모유수유률을 증가시키는 예방전략이 필요하다. 여성의 흡연, 음주, 약물의 사용이 증가하는 것과 여성폭력이 증가하는 것은 여성건강을 위협하는 중요한 요인이다. 또한 식습관 장애와 같은 잘못된 건강행위는 여성의 건강을 위협할 뿐 아니라 자녀출산에도 부정적인 영향을 미친다. 여성과 어린이의 건강을 유지 증진하기 위해서는 여성이 여성으로서의 인식을 가지고 건강관리기관을 찾고 건강관리를 할 수 있는 능력을 가져야 한다. 그러므로 간호사를 비롯한 의료인은 여성이 스스로 판단하고 결정하고 자가간호 할 수 있는 힘과 의지와 정보를 제공해야 한다. 이를 위해 여성건강전문간호사가 필요하다. 또한 국가와 사회단체(NGO)가 함께 여성건강이 국가적인 사업임을 인식하고 지원과 관심을 기울여야 한다.

Due to the rapid socioeconomic development and the introduction of the national health insurance system the general population's need for health care and utilization of health care services have increased dramatically. As a result of this change. Korea is experiencing a shortage of health care facilities and health manpower, and this leads long wailing line at doctor's offices. One of the solutions of this problem could be home health care system for those who have minor health related problems. With this background, this study was conducted to look at the feasibility of a home-based prenatal care system using information superhighway and nursing informatics specialists. With the home-based prenatal care system, the pregnant woman checks her blood pressure, tests her urine for sugar and protein, and measures her body weight at home and sends the information to a hospital computer via the information networks such as public telephone line and information superhighway. Nursing informatics specialist at the hospital will go through each patient record and screen those who have abnormal values and notify them to see a doctor as soon as possible. Besides telemonitoring features, the proposed system will include tole-education capabilities for the patients so that patient can learn whatever they need to know ragarding the prenatal care via information networks. If this system develops and operates, patient can save time in terms of travel to and from the hospital and waiting time in the hospital. And the health care institute can utilize its resource more efficiently.

Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of an experience-focused prenatal program on stress, anxiety, childbirth confidence, and maternal-fetal attachment for women in their first pregnancy. Methods: The participants were 57 pregnant women at 32 weeks or more of a first pregnancy who agreed to participate in this study. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, $x^2$ test, and Fisher's exact test using the SPSS 21.0 program. Results: The experimental group showed significant differences in stress, anxiety, childbirth confidence, and maternal-fetal attachment from the control group. Conclusion: The four-week experience-focused prenatal program can be used for women in their first pregnancy to reduce their stress and anxiety and to increase their childbirth confidence and maternal-fetal attachment.
