Purpose: This study was done to investigate the types of breastfeeding visits by mothers twenty-four months after birth and to identify the factors that increased breast feeding rates. Methods: The subjects of this study totaled seven hundred and seventy-four mothers with infants aged 2 years or less who had visited national medical institutions including Sanhujori service facilities, breastfeeding care service facilities, and community health centers. Data was collected from June 22 to July 31, 2009. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, $x^2$ test, ANOVA with a post hoc Scheffe test, and multiple logistic regression. Results: Major findings of this study were significant differences of planned length of breastfeeding and breastfeeding self-efficacy in relation to the differing types of breast feeding community visits by mothers. In multivariate logistic regression, baby's age, exclusive breastfeeding at hospital, utilization of breastfeeding care service facility, planned length of breastfeeding, and breastfeeding self-efficacy were independent predictors of the feeding type. Conclusion: In order to increase breastfeeding rates, programs provided by public health care services and medical facilities should start education on breast feeding in the hospital before mothers are discharged and then continue through the use of Sanhujori service facilities and workplace at 3 month and 6 month postpartum.

Objectives: This study aims to assess the maternal characteristics and changes of body among patients who received Korean medicine postpartum care compared to pre-study. Methods: From January 1, 2018 to February 28, 2019, we included 31 postpartum patients who had body composition analysis at admission and discharge among 34 patients who received postpartum care in ${\square}{\square}$ University Hospital. We used SPSS 21.0 for window to test for statistical significance. Results: The average age, weight, and caesarean section rate increased compared to previous study. The average period of postpartum care has decreased. After postpartum care, abdominal circumference, body weight and Body Mass Index (BMI) was significantly decreased, but not as much as pre-study. The coefficient of determination was derived to predict the effects of postpartum care and calculated as "$Abdominal\;circumference\;change=2.745+0.593{\times}admission\;period$", "$weight\;change=0.214+0.345{\times}admission\;period$" and "$BMI\;change=0.198+0.120{\times}admission\;period$". Conclusions: Compared to previous study, as the maternal age increased and admission period decreased, the weight loss after childbirth decreased. It is necessary to provide individual treatment through coefficient of determination.

Purpose: For the importance of the postpartum period not only for the women delivered of child but also the newborn babies, the multitude of health professionals have emphasized increasingly special care during this period. However, there has been no decisional consensus both in the concepts and the ways of postpartum cares between health professionals and non-professionals. In this study, we explored the ethnical and racial diversities concerning postpartum period focusing on their beliefs and practices. Methods: Literature review was used as main research method for topic of the study. To carry out the method, papers related with postnatal care were searched at the Pubmed, the Korea Education & Research Information Service. Results: 1. Differences between Western and non-Western cultures in terms of postnatal care were found out in the study. 2. The study has proved that non-Western cultures have shared the similar beliefs and practices in postnatal care, although some ethnical and racial diversities specially in duration for care and diets for mother etc. 3. It was found that most prominent similarities among non-Western cultures in postnatal care have centered mainly on the issues such as 'Hot and Cold balance', postnatal confinement etc. Conclusion: Based on the results of the study, it should be suggested that the health professionals do their efforts in understanding deeply the intrinsic diversities on the beliefs and the practices about postnatal care and providing the adequate services and cares reflecting them properly.

우리나라의 한방영역에서 분만 후 빠른 회복을 위해 사용해오던 처방 중 생화탕과 관습적으로 산후 회복식으로 민간에서 널리 사용해오던 가물치와 호박 전탕액을 대상으로 분만 후 산모의 회복에 미치는 효과를 과학적으로 규명 해 보고자 연구를 계획${\cdot}$수행하였다. 이에 따라 분만 후의 흰쥐에게 생화탕, 가물치 전탕액 및 호박 전탕액을 각각 7일간 투여한 후 적혈구, 백혈구, 헤모글로빈, 헤마토크릿트치, 혈소판 수, 피브리노겐과 혈청의 알부민과 타이록신 농도를 구하였고 소변 중의 나트륨과 칼륨의 함량을 측정하여 비교${\cdot}$고찰하였다. 생화탕을 섭취한 군에서는 혈액의 적혈구 농도, 헤모글로빈 농도, 헤마토크릿트치, 알부민 및 타이록신 농도가 대조군(생리식염수 투여군)보다 유의적(p<0.05)으로 높았던 반면 백혈구 수와 피브리노겐 농도 및 소변의 나트륨과 칼륨 농도는 유의적 (p<0.05)으로 낮게 나타났다. 가물치 투여군에서는 대조군에 비해 백혈구 수, 피브리노겐 농도가 유의적 (p<0.05)으로 낮았고 혈 중 알부민과 타이록신의 농도는 유의적(p<0.05)으로 높았으며 소변의 칼륨 함량은 대조군보다 유의적 (p<0.05)으로 낮았다. 호박 전탕액을 섭취한 군에서는 대조군에 비해 혈청 알부민과 타이록신 농도가 유의적(p<0.05)으로 높게 나타났고 소변의 칼륨 함량이 대조군의 농도보다 유의적(p<0.05)으로 낮게 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 생화탕은 산후회복에 뚜렷한 효과를 나타낸 반면 전통 산후 회복식은 분만 후 저하된 상태를 다소 개선시키는 효능은 있으나 그 정도가 생화탕에는 미치지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 일반적인 산후회복의 방법으로 적절한 효능은 인정되지 못하여 산후 조리법으로 권장하기에는 신중을 기할 필요가 있으며, 전통적으로 인정되어온 가물치와 호박의 이수소종(利水消腫) 효과에 대하여는 향후 연구가 필요한 것으로 사료된다. 한편 합리적이고 과학적인 식생활 정착을 위해 우리 식생활에서 약식동원의 목적으로 많이 쓰이는 전통 음식의 재료 및 사용분량에 대한 효능 평가에 관한 연구가 시도된다면 우리나라 전통 식생활의 우수성을 입증할 수 있으며 우리 음식을 소개하는데 있어 좋은 자료가 되리라 생각된다.

The purpose of this descriptive correlational study was to define the relationship between the experience of Sanhuujori, Korean traditional non-professional postpartal care after delivery and abortion and present health status of chronic arthritis female patient who visited to outpatient clinic of rheumatic internal medicine at a hospital located in Seoul, Korea. A convenience sample of 64 women who orally agreed to be a participant and data were collected form October 1996 to May, 1997 for sis months by way of interview with semistructured questionnaire. The data were analyzed by the SPSS pc program using t-test, ANOVA and Scheffe test as a post hoc and Pearson Correlation Coefficient. The results of the study were as follows ; Mean age of participants was 53.2 years and mean number of children was 3.1. Mean frequency of abortion was 2.1 times per woman. Seventy four percentage of respondents did not have Sanhujori after abortion. The mean period of Sanhujori after delivery was 17.7, 15.2, 13.8 days from the first child to third child and shorter than that of general woman such as 20.0, 19.0, 17.3 days in the previous study. On the subjective evaluation of whether the women did Sanhujori well or not, the rate of 'did Sanhujori wrongly' was the highest rank in each child where as general woman 'did Sanhujori well' at the first child, 'moderate' at the second and third child and 'did Sanhujori wrongly' at the 4th and fifth child. The health status implies both subjective health status women perceived and the rate of complaints of physical symptom distress women are experiencing presently. The respondents of 82.5% perceived them as unhealthy or sick and 68.9% of women complained more than two symptoms. Mean number of physical symptom distress women complained was 2.33. The main sites of physical symptom distress were upper & lower extremities 69.1% including knee and hand, whole body 19.1%, neck 3.7%, waist & shoulders 2.7% respectively. The characteristics of the symptoms were mostly pain 60%, swelling 19.8%, rigidity & deformity 7.9% respectively, sensation of heat 6.8% and weakness 1.7%. Women perceived the etiology of the chronic arthritis as stress 25.8%, 'did Sanhujori wrongly' & overwork 23.4% respectively, genetic 12.9%, malnutrition, 4.8%, and aging process 3.2%. There were significant positive correlation between subjective health status and the period of Sanhujori after delivery of the second child(r=-0.22) and negative correlation with the number of child at the level of 5% of significance statistically(r=0.27). There were significant negative correlation between the rate of complaints of physical symptom distress and the subjective evaluation whether she did Sanhujori well or not at the level of 5% of significance statistically(r=-0.23). And the rate of complaints of physical symptom distress in the group of women who experienced abortion was significantly higher than that of women who did not experience it at the level of 5% significance statistically(t=2.00) In conclusion, this finding reconfirmed the possible relationship between health status of chronic arthritis female patient and the experience of Sanhujori after delivery & abortion. It provides a challenge to the professional care givers to research further on the effects of Sanhujori on the health status, health recovery after abortion or delivery from the various aspects through the crosssectional and longitudinal research for the refinement of the reality of not only as cultural phenomenon but as conceptual model for the appropriateness of intervention and quality of care for desirable health outcomes.
