The purpose of this research is to target the health examination examinees to compare and analyze the common elements that influence prevention and preventive medical services and to analyze the share of the physical examination categories desired following the analysis by element. Likewise, this research was attempted to provide base data so that it is possible to reduce cost required for the prevention and treatment of each examination. This research targeted health examination examinees and conducted survey from April 1to May 31, 2010. The key findings after conducting analysis on 707 examinees are as follows. In case of men, those who are older and who live their spouses tended to be subjected to health examination, cancer examination and preventive injections. Those who had subscribed to the medical policy from the private sector, those with healthy state, those with higher educational level, tended to get health examination, cancer examination and preventive injections less. In case of women, those who are older, tended to get health examination and cancer examination more while those who had subscribed to the medical policy from the private sector and those with higher educational level tended to get health examination, cancer examination and preventive injections less. Those who are healthy and who live their spouse tended to get more cancerexamination and preventive injections.

This study tries to look into the relationship between preventive behaviors and health belief for hepatitis A and seroprevanlence rate of hepatitis A. The cross ratio of seroprevanlence rate of hepatitis A significantly increased with an increase in age [1.210(95% CI, 1.158-1.264)], and those who had hepatitis A vaccination had a significantly higher cross ratio than those who didn't [19.591(95% CI 6.524-58.82)], and the more health motivation they had, the higher the cross ratio was [1.478(95% CI 1.053-2.075)]. To increase seroprevalence rate of hepatitis A, it is necessary to provide personal hygiene for health motivation and prevention education thoroughly and to give vaccination of hepatitis A.

Purpose: Because children with asplenia have an increased risk of fulminant infection associated with a high fatality, chemoprophylaxis, and vaccinations against encapsulated bacteria are recommended. However, there have been few reports of the burden of severe bacterial infection and the current status of chemoprophylaxis and immunization among children with asplenia in Korea. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study including children with asplenia who were treated at our institute between January 1997 and December 2016. Results: From a total of 213 children with asplenia, 114 (53.5%) had congenital asplenia and 58 (27.2%) had functional asplenia. The remaining 41 (19.3%) had acquired asplenia with the median age at splenectomy being 12.2 years (range, 5.0 to 16.9 years); the most common cause of splenectomy was hereditary spherocytosis (39.0%). The chemoprophylaxis rate was 16.4%. The immunization rates were 44.1% for pneumococcus, 53.0% for Haemophilus influenzae type B, and 10.7% for meningococcus. The incidence of invasive bacterial infection among children with asplenia was 0.28/100 person-year; a total of six episodes (2.8%) were observed in five patients with congenital asplenia and one patient with functional asplenia. The median age for these infections was 15 months (range, 4 to 68 months). Five of the six episodes were bacteremia, and the other was meningitis. The most common pathogen was Streptococcus pneumoniae (n=3), followed by H. influenzae (n=1). Three of the six patients (50.0%) died, all of whom had pneumococcal bacteremia. None of the six had chemoprophylaxis or proper vaccinations. Conclusions: Although there is an increased risk of a severe infection proper vaccinations and chemoprophylaxis are still lacking. Physicians should be encouraged to implement appropriate chemoprophylaxis and immunizations for patients with asplenia.

20세기에 접어들면서 인류의 질병발생 양상은 상당한 변화가 있었다. 즉, 전염병의 집단발생과 급성부염병으로 인하여 단시간내에 많은 사람이 죽는 예는 차츰 감소되어 가고 그대신 비전염병질병 및 만성병이 증가하는 추세를 보이고 있는 것이다. 집단부염병 발생이 줄어가는 현상이 나타나게된 원인은 개인 및 환경위생의 향상, 생산제고에 의한 영양상태의 호전, 조직화된 보건사업, 그리고 의학의 발달 등의 영향이 절대적이었으리라 믿지만, 그 가운데 가장 구체적이며 뚜렷한 결정요인은 예방접종이라 하였다.
