Purpose: This study was conducted to 1) find out the frequency of tobacco control intervention, barriers, and facilitators. 2) compare the differences in tobacco control intervention, barriers, and facilitators between oncology nurses and general nurses. Method: A sample was composed of 96 oncology nurses and 284 general nurses. The survey questionnaire was mailed out to nurses who were working at the randomly selected hospitals throughout the country. The questionnaire was adopted from the study of national survey on oncology nurse's tobacco interventions in United States by Sarnar, et al.(2000). Results: Oncology nurses were found to provide tobacco control interventions more frequently comparing to the general nurses. "Patient not motivated to quit smoking", "Lack of time", "Lack of recognition/rewards", were the most commonly identified barriers. "Patient wants to quit", "Adequate time", "Confidence in ability help people to stop smoking", were the most commonly identified facilitators. Conclusions: Although oncology nurses are in an important position in delivering tobacco interventions and providing resources, their participation in consistent delivery of a tobacco control intervention was less than desirable. To help nurses participate in the assessment of tobacco use and interventions for cessation, the development of educational program is necessary.

Purpose: A survey was done on knowledge and attitude toward CPR and provision of CPR education to nurses on general wards. Method: A survey of 280 nurses on general wards in four university hospitals with 700 beds or more in the city of Pusan was done. The data were collected from September 10, to September 22, 2007. Results: The mean score for knowledge of Basic Life Support was 12.71 (mean converted to 100: 63). About 76% of the nurses believed that they had a responsibility to perform CPR, but 53.3% of the nurses were not confident to perform CPR. About 94% of the nurses had received education on CPR but 32.3% of those took it 6 to 12 years ago. About 41% of the nurses spent 3-4 hours for the education and 73.2% of those took simulation education. Conclusion: Although most of the nurses had received CPR education, they were not knowledgeable or confident. Therefore, better CPR education programs including up-dated knowledge are needed. More reinforced education should be offered every six months or on a yearly basis in order to enhance lasting efficiency.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to develop a nursing salary guideline for Korean hospitals. Methods: Literature review and a mobile survey were conducted regarding staff nurses' salary. Regression analysis and simulation model were applied to develop the nurses' salary guideline. Results: The United Kingdom, Australia, and Germany have standard salary guidelines which demonstrated the standard salary of nurses. These were determined mainly by nursing experience and expertise. The results of the mobile survey indicated that the maximum to minimum ratio of the salary was as high as 4.5 among staff nurses working in Korean hospitals. Two models (exponential and linear) for a standard nursing salary guideline were developed and the simulation results demonstrated an improved salary structure for staff nurses. Conclusion: This developed salary guideline for staff nurses is recommended to be applied in Korean hospitals which provide total nursing care services.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the differences in fatigue, sleep quality and interpersonal relationship stress levels between nurses in comprehensive nursing care wards and in general wards. Methods: Data were collected using self-reported structured questionnaire from 14 August to 17 September 2018. The participants were 220 nurses from 6 hospitals in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. The data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS 23.0 program, descriptive statistics, t-test, ${\chi}^2-test$, Fisher's exact test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Results: The subjects' fatigue, sleep quality, and interpersonal relationship stress were not significantly different between the comprehensive nursing care services wards and the general wards. The interpersonal stress with a superior was statistically higher among general wards than comprehensive nursing care services wards. The relationship stress between patient and caregiver was higher in comprehensive nursing care services wards than in general wards. Conclusion: A follow-up study is needed to develop a strategic method to reduce interpersonal stress in nurses.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the factors influencing intention of intervening towards elder abuse among nurses in the emergency department. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive design was used. A convenience sample of 209 emergency room nurses working in university hospitals and general hospitals completed the questionnaires. Multiple regression analysis was performed to examine predictors of intention of intervening towards elder abuse. Result: Awareness of elder abuse, legal and institutional knowledge, attitude, subjective norm, and self-efficacy were positively correlated to the intention of intervening towards elder abuse. Factors of the intention of intervening towards elder abuse in emergency room nurses were awareness of elder abuse, followed by subjective norm and attitude. Conclusion: The findings suggest that it is necessary to educate emergency room nurses in order to improve awareness and knowledge of elder abuse. From the nursing practice and hospital organization level, specific interventions and strategies to increase the assessment and intervention of elder abuse are needed.

본 연구의 목적은 의료기관에서 간호사와 환자의 전자동의서 작성 경험을 파악하고자 하는 것이다. 본 연구는 포커스 그룹 인터뷰를 적용한 질적 내용 분석 연구이며, 연구 참여자는 간호사 30명과 환자 27명이었다. 포커스 그룹 인터뷰와 심층 면담을 통해 자료를 수집하였고 내용분석 하였다. 본 연구결과 전자동의서 사용 경험과 관련된 주요 주제는 '전자 동의서 사용에 대한 유용성', '전자동의서 태블릿 PC 사용과 관련된 불편함', '전자동의서 기능향상에 대한 바람'이었다. 참여자들은 전자동의서는 간편하고 편리하며, 자원과 공간이 절약되고, 향상된 전자시스템의 기능이 있어 만족하나, 예기치 못한 기계의 오작동이 생기거가 충전 펜과 고정형 모니터를 사용할 때 또는 사용법이 익숙하지 않은 경우에는 불편하다고 하였다. 참여자들은 추후 점차 사용이 확대되고, 친필과 유사한 필체, 화면 확대 조정 및 시청각 보조 기능이 지원되기를 원했다. 전자동의서 사용자들의 불편함을 최소화하고 만족도를 최대화하기 위한 노력이 필요하다.
