Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the recovery time and its related factors after sedative gastroscopy. Method: The subjects of this study consisted of 103 clients. The data were collected from clients who visited a health care system at S national university hospital in Seoul. The sedative gastroscopy was performed by gastrointestinal endoscopists. Patients' demographics and medical characteristics were assessed by reviewing the patients' charts. Degree of sedation and recovery were assessed by the Ramsay's sedation scale and the Aldrete score, respectively. Result: The mean recovery time was $37.8{\pm}16.9$ minutes(range, 5 to 90 minutes). Hypoxia was resent in four clients during recovery. Alcohol intake(p=0.02) and pulmonary function(p=0.003) were significant factors affecting recovery time, whereas midazolam dose and sedation level were not. Conclusion: Current alcohol intake, pulmonary function were predicting factors on recovery time.

This study was carried out to understand the immigration period, climatic conditions for mass immigration and bionomical characters ofthe brown pLanthopper(BPH) in Hae NamThe results are as follows ; (1) The Periods of first immigraion and mass immigration of BPH , were from the late June to early JuLy and from earlyto mid JuLy in HaeNam, that were faster about 15-30days than in inland of ChonnanThe climatic factors that related closely to mass immigration wereas follows ; temp.: $20{\;}~{\;}25^{\circ}C$, humidity : 86 ~ 95 % , wind direcion : SW, wind velocity: 1.0 ~ 2.9gm/sec. (2)The population of immigranted BPH was in the field much more overthe mountain near coast than other places . Biotype composition showed that biotype I was on the decrease and biotype II, III were on the increase (3)The bionomical characters were variable, for climatic conditions,that egg stage, nymphal stage and adult stafe of immigranted BPHwere 9-12days, 13-16days and 12-36days respectively, that hatchability(%) and emergence rate ( % ) were higher than 80%. The adult Longevity in female and macropterous BPH showed Longerthan that of male and brachypterous respectively. (4) The distance of nymphs and brachypterous adults move by walking was within 16cm over the water surface, by hopping was within 20cm horizontally.
