어깨통증은 매우 흔한 질병이지만 원인과 증상이 다양해 잘못된 진단과 처치로 적당한 치료시기를 놓치기 쉽다. 파스를 붙이는 것에서부터 물리치료, 운동요법 등 병원을 찾기 전 환자 스스로 해볼 만한 여러 대안이 많다는 점도 이런 이유 중 하나다. 어깨통증은 간단한 방법으로 치료되거나 자연스레 낫기도 한다. 하지만 통증이 너무 오래 동안 지속되거나 악화되면 반드시 어깨를 전문으로 보는 병원을 찾아 진단을 받는 게 중요하다.

Seasickness not only makes persons on board vessels to vomit but also causes vertigo, headache, sleepiness, fatigue, lethargy and other discomforts. This ailment leads to disturbance of biorhythm and decline of perception which would eventually cause reduction of situational awareness among ship's operators that leads to marine accident. This study is about the sensitivity of people onboard ships to seasickness and focused on deck or navigation officer cadets(apprentice officers) and engine officer cadets(apprentice engineers) who have no previous experiences on board. It is conducted by using motion sensor that can measure ship's X, Y, Z-axis motions and through the questionnaire survey, and evaluated each students' degree of seasickness symptoms. Through this study, in same circumstance, we have known that there are different degrees of motion sickness for wheel house worker and engine room worker, It also confirmed that seasickness have high relationship with degree of hull motion and also, with cycle of hull motion. In addition, we have confirmed that Z-axis hull movement has higher relationship with seasickness than X-axis and Y-axis hull movements. This study aims to initiate additional researches about X-axis and Y-axis of the ship's motion which it expects to greatly enhance safety of wheelhouse and engine room personnel, ship's livability and comfortable sailing.

Purpose: Symptoms of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) include tremors, bradykinesia, and rigidity. The purpose was to explore the effects of breathing, meditation and qigong on the improving of insight, behavior, mood discomfort, depression, anxiety, and olfactory dysfunction, which are PD non-motor symptoms. Methods: Three stages of An's-4444 healing breathing, An's Gwanjeong healing meditation, and healing qigong performed 12 times for 80 minutes at a time in subjects with PD (11 patients), and pre- and post-measurements compared and evaluated. Results: The Integrated Parkinson's Rating Scale (UPDRSI) for mood discomfort after 12 healings was 69%. The Depression Scale (61%) for HAMD, and 64% for Anxiety (HAMA)), and the smell identification test (TSI) for a trial for olfactory dysfunction, improved to 82%, respectively. However, the numerical values after one month after 12 healing were almost same in all four scales. This means that the healing effect maintained until after one month. Conclusions: An's healing breathing, meditation and qigong therapy significantly improved insight, behavior, and mood discomfort, and non-motor symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and olfactory dysfunction. These results suggest that An's breathing, meditation and qigong therapy are valuable as a primary therapy to improve and heal non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease patients. Further research in biomedical science is needed.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of rhythmic movement therapy for adaptation state in mastectomy patients. The quasi-experimental study was designed using nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design within the framework of Laszarus & Folkman's stress-adaptation model. The subjects of the study were composed thirty-two mastectomy patients, of these fifteen were assigned to the experimental group and seventeen to the control group. Rhythmic movement therapy was carried out twice a week for thirty-five, minutes or forty minutes for six weeks period from August 22 to September 30 in 1994. Data was collected before and after the experimentation. Collected data was analyzed by mens of chi-square test, t-test, two-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient with $SPSS/PC^+$. The results were summarized as follows : 1. Physical symptom score in the experimental group and control group was not significant difference. 2. Joint Movement Parameter in the experimental group and control group was significant difference. 3. Depression score in the experimental group and contrl group was significant difference. 4. Body image score in the experimental group and control group was significant difference. 5. Stress perception score in the experimental group and control group was significant difference. 6. Social adjustment score in the experimental group and control group was significant difference. 7. Each adaptational level in the experimental group and control group according to type of Health Locus of Control were partially significant difference. Depression score and social adjustment score between the experimental group and control group according to others Health Locus of control were significant difference. This data suggest that rhythmic movement therapy was more effective in the group of Others health Locus of Control. 8. Each adaptational level between the experimental group and control group according to amount of spouse support were not significant difference. 9. The significant positive correlation between physical symptom score and body image, between body image and social adjustment, were observed. The significant negative correlation between stress perception score and social adjustment, between depression and body image, between depression and social adjustment, were observed. This data suggest that the more physical symptom score increased, the more body image increased and the more body image, the more social adjustment. And then the more stress perception score decreased, the more social adjustment increasded and the more depression score, the more body image and social adjustment. Thus it is concluded that the rhythmic movement therapy was a useful nursing intervention for adaptation of mastectomy patients.

1. 도입 및 배경 Lou Gehrig 병이라고 알려져 있는 근위축성 측삭경화증은 중추신경계 중 운동신경의 퇴행성 변화에 의한 진행성 질환이다. 이 병은 근육의 마비와 약화, 강직의 진행과 더불어 언어장애, 연화장애, 호흡장애가 동반된다. ALS는 환자나 가족들에게 엄청난 고통을 주는 질환으로 이병은 발병 후 3-5년 내에 약 $75\%$가 사망한다. 그리고 연하장애가 주된 증상이거나 고령에서 발병하였을 때에는 생존기간이 더욱 단축되는 경향을 나타낸다. 그리고 치명적인 호흡장애로 인해 대부분 사망하게 된다. 현재 의학계에서는 이 병의 원인도 알고 있지 못하고, 증상에 대한 아무런 치료방법도 제시하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 2. 역학 원발성 운동신경원성 질환의 발생률은 100,000당 약 7명이고, ALS는 이 중 약 $65-85\%$를 차지한다. 전 세계적으로 1년에 약 2-4명/100,000이 발생하고 있으며 시간이 경과할수록 점차 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 3. 연구방법 EMG나 Biopsy 등을 통해 신경과 전문의가 ALS로 진단한 환자 중 상지대학교 부속한방병원에서 3개월 이상 입원치료를 받은 환자 18명을 대상으로 임상연구를 진행하였고, 설문조사는 외래에 내원한 환자 중 설문에 응답한 환자 28명을 포함한 총 46명의 환자들을 대상으로 시행하였다. 치료방법은 침, 약침, 봉약침, 한약 등을 환자의 체질을 고려하여 변증에 따라 적용하였고, 환자의 상태 변화는 ALSFRS(ALS Functional Rate Scale)를 사용하여 관찰하였다. 4. 결과 본 연구결과 ALS의 치료에 한의학적 치료방법은 유효한 것으로 나타났다. 특히 본 질환이 시간이 경과하면서 $100\%$ 악화되는 질환임을 감안한다면 한의학적 치료를 통해 약 $40\%$의 환자에서 몸의 상태나 언어장애, 만성적 피로 등이 호전되었고, 근력도 증가되는 결과를 나타내었다.
