This descriptive study was conducted to investigate the relationship between clinical practice stress, satisfaction with clinical practice, and clinical performance ability of nursing college students and the nursing profession. Data were collected from 240 students in the nursing college. Clinical performance ability (F=1.888, p=0.048) and the nursing profession (F=1.976, p=0.046) showed statistically significant differences depending on the satisfaction of majors. The nursing professional institution contained more population groups that were dissatisfied than satisfied with the majors. Additionally, clinical practice stress was reported to affect satisfaction by 41% of the respondents. Overall, stressful clinical practice, clinical practice satisfaction and clinical performance were found to significantly affect the degree of satisfaction by nursing students. Accordingly, the level of stress experienced during clinical training also affects the performance of clinical practice, and can therefore lead to mistakes. Thus, there is a need to develop future interventions that could reduce the stress experienced by clinical practice nursing students.

As the number of clinical trials conducted in Korea increases, the need of the Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system for effective clinical data management is also increased. Recently, the Korea Food and Drug Association published 'Guideline for the Electronic Clinical Trial Data Management and Processing' and it would be the foundation for establishing regulation of electronic clinical data management. In this research, we conducted the survey regarding adoption rate of EDC system in clinical trials in hospitals, Contract Research Organizations (CRO), and pharmaceutical companies. And the perceived importance and the ease of application for the Guideline were investigated. The adoption rates of EDC system was 77.6% but it mostly applied to less than five trials. Also EDC system was mostly used in phase I and phase II trials and the utilization rate of CRO was the highest. The perceived importance for the Guideline was high among all three organizations but, in case of the perceived ease of its application, CRO was the highest. Also, the perceived importance of the clinical data standard was high and the standard for data collection was mostly required. However, the comprehension for the global standard of the electronic data was relatively low, so that education is required. This result would be the foundation to increase the electronic clinical trials and develop proper regulation and principles for clinical data standards in Korea.

This study attempts to identify how incivility and clinical learning environment affects clinical practice stress among nursing students. This study enrolled 204 nursing students in the third- and fourth-grades, having practical clinical experience. Data were collected from April 1 to April 30, 2019, by the self-reported method. Data analysis was achieved by applying descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis, using the SPSS 22.0 program. Our results showed that the average values for incivility experienced by nursing students was 2.58, clinical learning environment was 2.79, and clinical practice stress was 3.33. Incivility experienced and clinical practice stress appeared to be a static correlation, whereas the clinical learning environment and clinical practice stress, and incivility experienced and clinical learning environment, were identified as amulet correlations. Incivility experienced and clinical learning environment exerted significant influences on clinical practice stress, where the explanatory power was confirmed at 22.5%. Based on the results of this study, we propose the necessity to develop and apply various programs to effectively manage the clinical practice stress of nursing students.

Since the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) outbreak, it has been generally believed that a medical technologists (MTs) are supposed to perform polymerase chain reaction tests and next-generation sequencing (NGS) in the hospitals. However, many do not recognize that the duty of MT for clinical genetic testing has not been stated in the Medical Laws (72.5% for MT, N=200; 62.8% for students, N=123). In this regard, to evaluate the feasibility of MT's role for NGS genetic testing, we requested our subjects to fill out an online survey and analyzed the data. Among them, it shows that the scope of MT's role, including NGS performance should include clinical genetic testing (99.5% for MT, N=200; 86.8% for students, N=123). Also, questions on clinical genetics, which is associated with both cellular genetics and molecular genetic questions should be included in the National MT License Problem Bank (97.5% for MT; 71.4% for students). Based on these results, the Korean Association of Medical Technologists needs to cooperate synergically with the Academic Association of Biomedical Laboratory Science with respect to genetic education and legislation for the future benefit of both MTs and students.

디지털방사선영상시스템의 영상 품질을 비교하기 위해 영상의 정량적인 분해능을 나타내는 변조전달함수(MTF), 노이즈 특성을 나타내는 잡음력 스펙트럼(NPS)을 이용하여 영상 품질평가를 하였다. IEC61267 선질을 사용하여 IEC62220-1에서 제시하는 기하학적인 조건과 실제 임상에서 사용되어지는 기하학적인 조건을 사용하여 그리드 및 부가필터, 임상선량을 이용하여 edge 팬텀을 사용하여 MTF, NPS값을 측정하였다. 그리드사용 유 무, 부가필터사용 유 무, kV, 임상선량(mAs), 영상검출기까지의 거리에 따른 MTF 결과는 임상조건 100cm, 180cm과 IEC62220-1 기하학적인 조건 150cm에서 MTF 공간주파수 측정값은 비슷하게 나타났으며, 오히려 임상조건 100cm에서 공간주파수가 높게 나타나는 경우도 있었다. NPS 결과는 선량(mAs)이 증가함에 따라 감소함을 나타내었다. IEC61267 선질을 이용한 영상품질평가에서는 IEC62220-1기하학적인 조건을 이용한 품질평가보다 임상조건 기하학적인 조건을 사용한 영상의 품질이 좋았다. 본 논문의 영상특성 평가 연구 결과들을 바탕으로 향후 IEC 표준의 영상평가에서 제시하는 평가방법보다는 임상 조건을 적용한 영상특성 평가방법을 적용한다면 실제 임상의 디지털방사선영상시스템의 영상품질을 적절하게 유지할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to improve the accessibility of Korean medicine by standardizing managements, improving quality of medical services, and reducing medical costs in ankle sprain by develop clinical pathway (CP). Methods The development of CP in this study is based on clinical practice guideline (CPG) for ankle sprain, and aims to maximize the quality of treatment, such as reducing treatment time and medical costs, and increasing patient satisfaction through standardized pathway. The CP was revised after consultation and review by the advisory committee. The advisory committee is consisted of a stakeholder group applying the CP. Results In previous research studies, there were no Korean medicine CP studies on ankle sprain. Based on CPG for ankle sprain and analysis of medical records, 6 types of time task matrix type CP (for Korean medicine doctors, medical assistant, patients) and 4 types of algorithm type CP (for Korean medicine clinics, Korean medicine hospitals, and cooperative practicing hospitals, public medical centers) were derived as a result. Conclusions Ankle sprain CP is expected to not only increase patient satisfaction and maximize the quality of treatment, but also reduce the financial burden of health insurance by reducing medical costs.
