2001년 카타르 도하에서 열린 세계무역기구(WTO)의 각료회의 결과 2005년까지 보건의료 서비스분야의 시장개방 논의를 마쳐야 한다. 이에 국내 의료계는 의료공동대책위원회를 구성하여 대응방안을 모색하고 있으며, 치협도 특별위원회를 구성하여 국민 구강보건에 최선의 방향을 찾기 위해 노력을 하고 있다. 그런 노력의 일환으로 치협은 치과의사들이 현 의료시장 개방이라는 명제 앞에서, 얼마나 처해진 상황을 잘 파악하고 있으며 무엇을 원하는 가를 알기 위해 회원들의 의견을 물었다. 이번 호와 다음 호에서는 치협이 지난 4월에 회원 및 치대생 등에게 설문 조사한 결과를 중심으로 모아진 회원들의 견해를 중심으로 구강보건정책연구회에서 발표한 자료를 게재한다.

클라우드 컴퓨팅은 IT 자원(스토리지, 서버, 소프트웨어, 네트워크 등)을 인터넷 기술을 이용하여 서비스 형태로 제공하는 기술이다. 최근 클라우드 컴퓨팅 서비스의 영역이 지속적으로 확대되고 있으며 특히 사물인터넷 (Internet of Things) 등의 IT 기술 발전에 따라 가정, 의료 등에 클라우드 컴퓨팅을 접목하여 활용할 수 있는 방법이 활발히 연구되고 있다. 그러나 클라우드 컴퓨팅 서비스의 확산과 더불어 알려지지 않은 새로운 보안 위협, 클라우드 서비스 고객의 자기정보 통제권 상실, 개인정보 유출로 인해 발생하는 프라이버시 침해 또한 이슈가 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 클라우드 보안을 위한 국제 표준화 기구와 해당 기구에서 추진 중인 국제 표준화 현황에 대해 살펴본다.

Article 34 of 'Medical Service Act' of Korea provides telemedicine service between medical personnel. Telemedicine between medical personnel and patients, therefor, in principle, is not recongnized. Increasing demand for telemedicine fueled by COVID-19 pandemic and accumulation of telemedicine experience lead a change in stubborn opposition of the medical community, tenuous though it may be. This article focuses on the telemedicine legislation in France, which can be used as a reference for the telemedicine legislation premised on telemedicine between medical personnel and patients. The legislation stipulates the concept, types, and conditions of telemedicine performance through 'Code de la santé publique'. The principle that telemedicine shall be performed alternately with direct medical treatment to a patient and details relating to such telemedicine performance as telemedicine costs, medical fees, and telemedicine equipment support are stipulated through an agreement between the medical community and health insurance organizations. From this point, the implications for our legal system were presented.

The purpose of this study is to manufacture a multi-function device (MFD) which can be applied to various types of weight-bearing view of the lower leg, and to compare the results with the images from the existing weight-bearing platforms (WBPs), thereby suggesting a clinical utilization. The MFD was manufactured, by considering the minimum adjustable heights of the platform for weight-bearing foot/ankle, platform for hindfoot alignment view, and X-ray tube of the X-ray device. A foot/ankle phantom was used to take the images of weight-bearing lateral foot in MFD and WBPs to compare the resolutions of the X-ray images using a quick modulation transfer function (MTF) program. Between both the images taken from the MFD and WBPs, there was no statistically significant difference found in the mean cycles per pixel (C/P) and the lines per image height (LPH) of the 50%-Contrast Spatial Frequency (MTF50), and 10-90% of Maximum Energy Rise Distance (10-90%), where p>0.05. The MFD is suggested for its clinical trial as a useful positioning device that can secure the patient's safety and manifoldly perform various inspections. Also, the recommendation of the positioning device as a policy can activate dedicated manufacturers, while also improving the quality of medical services.

The elbow joint is made up of three different bones. X-rays or other radiological exams are commonly used to diagnose elbow injuries or disorders caused by physical activity and external forces. Previous research on the elbow joint reported a new examination method that meets the imaging evaluation criteria in the tilt position by Z-axis elevation of the forearm. Therefore, this study aims to design an optimized instrument and develop an aid applicable to other upper extremity exams. After completing the 2D drawing and 3D modeling design, the final design divided into four parts was fabricated with a 3D printer using ABS plastic and assembled. The developed examination aid consists of a four-stage Z-axis elevation tilt angle function (0°, 5°, 10°, and 15°) and can rotate and fixate 360° in 1-degree increments. It was designed to withstand a maximum equivalent stress of 56.107 Pa and a displacement of 1.6548e-5 mm through structural analysis to address loading issues caused by cumulative frequency of use and physical utilization. In addition to X-ray exams of the elbow joint, the developed aid can be used for shoulder function tests by rotating the humerus and also be applied to MRI and CT exams as it is made of non-metallic materials. It will contribute to the accuracy and efficiency of medical imaging diagnosis through clinical applications of various devices and medical imaging exams in the future.

A variety of medical devices have evolved throughout the years. Commonly used devices have typical radiological appearances which are familiar to radiologists. However, some new devices, as well as devices that are not commonly used, may be missed or misinterpreted by radiologists. It is even more difficult to identify a certain medical device with limited clinical history. Therefore, accurate identification of medical devices is crucial to diagnose malposition and potential complications. In this article, we provide a pictorial review of medical devices of the abdomen and pelvis according to classifications that include gastrointestinal devices, hepatobiliary devices, genitourinary devices, and miscellaneous. We also comprehensively review the clinical and radiologic features of complications related to these medical devices.

Recently, the demand of construction a new hospital is apt to decrease in the rate of increase. The demand changes quantitative expansion into seeking quality of more pleasant healing environment. Special conditions should be taken into consideration when we remodeling the hospital, because it has special and complicated equipment system. Also, newly invented medical instruments cause extension and reconstruction of a building, therefore construction of hospital continued growth and variation. Hospitals of small-to-middle size are changing to correspond on patients' request under these environment. Now we have little awareness and experience about remodeling yet, and systematic research is insufficient. Therefore, this study is aiming to purpose a data of future hospital construction plan and suitable hospital remodeling's plan direction through analysis of done medium and small scale hospitals.

This study was conducted with whole home care nurses nationwide to provide secondary analyzed data to understand on their usage of medical equipments and their need of them for a month. This study found that treatments given by home care nurses were nelaton catheterization, bladder washing/urethral washing, newborn care, exchange and care for nasogastric tube and suction in that order of frequency. Second, instruments and equipments used for home care were reported to be stethoscope, patient monitor, blood pressure measuring equipment, air flotation mattresses, beds for patients, mattresses, suctioning device sets, enteral feeding equipment and dressing set in that oder of frequency. Moreover, need assessment of medical instruments and equipments showed renal dialysis was most needed and patient monitor, blood pressure measuring equipment, enteral feeding equipment, solution and other supplies for renal dialysis and beds for patient were necessary in that order. In conclusion, the results of this study investigating special treatments and medical instruments and equipments used for home care patients and analyzing patients' need, were expected to be useful for expansion of application of long-term care insurance for the elderly and health insurance as well as for quality control of home care and development of medial instruments and equipments used at home.

최근 경제수준 향상과 소자녀 가치관의 확립, 그리고 전국민 의료보험 실시 등으로 인하여 모자보건 대상자의 대부분은 민간 의료시설의 전문인력으로부터 서비스를 제공받게 되었고, 모자보건 수준도 급격히 향상, 1992년 시설분만율의 경우, 99%에 도달하였다. 이렇듯 의료시설 이용의 증가와 의료기술의 발전에도 불구하고, 영아사망율 및 모성사망율이 최근 몇년동안 같은 수준에 머무르고 있음은, 보다 질적인 관리측면으로 사업의 방향이 전환되어야 함을 의미하는데 이는 곧 공공성을 띠고 있는 모자보건사업을 국가가 관리하여야 할 필요성을 더욱 크게 한다. 공공부문에서는 취약대상을 위하여 민간 전문인력과의 유기적인 연계체계를 마련하여 계속적인 관리를 제공할 수 있도록 하고, 보건교육 강화를 위한 관련 홍보물(모자보건수첩 활용, 모유수유 권장, 제왕절개수술 지양 등)을 제작하며 신경아세포종 검사 등과 같은 새로운 예방사업 개발에 중점을 두어야 할 것이다. 또한 영유아관리는 저체중아 및 장애아에 대한 추구관리서비스까지 확대되어야 할 것이다. 현 우리나라 주산기구급이송체계는 응급의료체계내에서 이루어지고 있다고 볼 수 있는데 주산기관리를 위한 의료여건이 성숙되어 있지 못하고 있는데다(이 시기의 집중관리를 통하여 사망 및 장애아 예방이 가능) 관련 제도마저 취약하여 민간의료부문에서는 영아사망 및 모성사망을 낮추기 위해서는 이 부문에 대한 노력이 집중되어야 할 것이다. 첫째, 주산기학, 신생아학 전문인력의 훈련제도 확립파 주산기 관리시설의 지역적 적정분배(분만 2,000건에 1개 시설마련), 둘째, 집중적인 인력과 고가장비가 투입되는 주산기 의료활동 강화를 위한 관련 의료제도의 수정 및 보완, 세째, 질적관리가 매우 중시되는 고위험 신생아의 집중관리를 위한 '표준 의료관리지침서' 마련, 네째, 동 시설 및 관리에 준하여 주산기 의료시설에 대한 감독 및 감시기능 강화를 위한 제도적 장치가 마련되어야 할 것이다.
