Currently, safety accidents in hospitals are steadily occurring. In particular, safety accidents of elderly patients with weak immunity, such as nursing hospitals, continue to occur, and countermeasures are needed. Most accidents are caused by patient movement. As a method of reducing safety accidents by analyzing and recognizing the sound of the inpatient room according to the movement of the patient, this paper classifies the sound pattern for sound recognition in the hospital inpatient room using DTW (Dynamic Time Warping), an algorithm applicable to time-series pattern recognition. It was analyzed by applying it to the inpatient room environment.

The beneficial effects of antibiotics in acute diarrhea of children were analysed 10 assess their effectiveness since many physicians use them to treat acute diarrhea. Searching 124 charts of patients admitted from August 1996 to July 1997, they were divided into two groups, an antibiotic negative (N) group of 28 patients and a positive (P) group of 96 patients. The admission period was significantly shorter in N group than P group (P=0.0057). Duration of fever and diarrhea were also shorter in N group (P=0.0328 and 0.0184 respectively). Although it was not statistically significant. duration of vomit and frequency of diarrheal episodes per day were lower in N group (P=0.7091 and 0.061, respectively). Age, sex, duration of diarrhea before the admission and CRP collected on the day of admission were not statistically different between the two groups (P=0.5866, 0.093, 0.3502 and 0.2628 respectively).

배경: 약물로 인한 Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD)는 널리 알려져 있으며 우리나라에서 항생제와 프로톤 펌프 억제제 소모량을 고려할 때 질환 치료과정에서의 CDAD 발생빈도 및 CDAD 유발 이전에 투여한 약물의 사용빈도와 CDAD의 치료방법을 조사할 필요성이 있다. 방법: 경상대학교 병원에서 2011년 1월부터 6월까지의 입원환자를 대상으로 대변 독소 검사에 의해 CDAD로 판명된 환자의 성별, 연령분포, 질환명, 입원병동, 재발률을 조사하였으며 CDAD 판명이전에 투여한 약제 및 CDAD 판명후 치료약제를 조사하였다. 결과: 연구기간 동안 CDAD 대변 독소 검사 의뢰된 환자수는 1,500명이었으며 CDAD 양성은 111명(9.3%)이었고, 재발은 29명(26.1%)이었다. CDAD를 주소로 입원한 환자는 17명 (15.3%)이었고, 나머지는 입원기간 중에 발생하였다. CDAD 양성인 환자의 연령대는 60대에서 32.4% (36/111명) 이었고, 내과병동에서 34.2%를 나타내었고, 재발률은 외과계 병동에서 41.4%로 가장 높게 나타났다. CDAD 환자의 17% (19/111명)은 항암제 투여 동안 발생하였으며 CDAD 발생 전 사용약물로는 세팔로스포린계 항생제가 162회로 가장 빈번하게 사용 되었으며, 히스타민2 수용체길항제 107회, 스테로이드 82회, 비 스테로이드 항염제 79회, 프로톤 펌프 억제제 77회, 하제 59회, 항암제가 33회 처방되었다. CDAD 치료약제로는 8종의 약제가 241회 처방 되었으며 metronidazole이 99회로 가장 빈번하게 사용되었고, vancomycin이 37회로 나타났다. 결론: 입원환자에 있어서 CDAD양성은 특히 고령의 암환자가 많아 항암제 투여 시에는 CDAD 발생에 주의해야 할것으로 보인다. CDAD의 치료약제로는 metronidazole이 vancomycin 보다 많이 사용되는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, we developed the severity-adjusted length of stay (LOS) model for acute myocardial infarction patients using data from the hospital discharge survey and proposed management of medical quality and development of policy. The dataset was taken from 2,309 database of the hospital discharge survey from 2004 to 2006. The severity-adjusted LOS model for the acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients was developed by data mining analysis. From decision making tree model, the main reasons for LOS of AMI patients were CABG and comorbidity. The difference between severity-adjusted LOS from the ensemble model and real LOS was compared and it was confirmed that insurance type and location of hospital were statistically associated with LOS. And to conclude, hospitals should develop the severity-adjusted LOS model for frequent diseases to manage LOS variations efficiently and apply it into the medical information system.

Radiotelemetry device was surgically implanted in the abdomen of a Eurasian river otter (Lutra lutra). Behaviors of the otter, hospitalized after surgical implantation were also observed. The surgical techniques involved an incision in the paralumbar fossa to introduce a radiotelemetry device into the abdominal cavity. Thirteen behaviors of the otter during hospitalization following abdominal surgery were observed and the time budget of each behavior and the times at which each behavior seems to appear most frequently were measured. This report could provide surgical techniques involving intra-abdominal implantation in otter and basic information associated with otter's behaviors during hospitalization.

The purpose of this study was to investigate factors affecting suicidal ideation in psychiatric inpatients. A total of 186 psychiatric inpatients participated in the study. Data were analyzed by frequencies, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and hierarchical multiple regression with SPSS WIN 18.0. Suicidal ideation showed significant differences according to marital status, diagnosis, and previous suicide attempt history. There were significant correlations among depression, self-esteem, spirituality and suicidal ideation. Depression and spirituality were identified as predictors affecting suicidal ideation. The regression model explained 52.4% of suicidal ideation. As a result, intervention program for decreasing depression and improving spirituality is essential to decrease suicidal ideation in psychiatric inpatients.

The components that influence recovery were investigated to understand the recovery lived experience of stroke inpatients. Using the phenomenological research methodology reported by Giorgi, 3 conversation sessions were performed on 12 stroke inpatients. The conversations were recorded through agreement, in which the data were analyzed according to the scientific phenomenological methods. Sixteen summarized meaning units were integrated to deduct 10 main meanings and 6 themes. The themes of the restoration experience included the burden of help, performance of independent roles, self-overcoming, return to society, psychological support, and enhanced motivation for recovery. This can be used as data to predict the difficulty that stroke patients experience during hospitalization and propose a direction of intervention for restoration. Rehabilitation experts must provide intervention for the restoration of stroke patients based on the formation of a therapeutic relationship to strengthen the psychological support and motivation, and make strategies for self-overcoming and a proper cooperation relationship with their family.

In order to clearly recognize illegality of insurance crime, declaring the provisions on insurance crime is preferable. An insurance fraud differentiated from Configuration Requirements of general fraud should be established And differentiation in accordance with the act type of insurance crime the degree of organizational involvement is required. Also the introduction of civil sanctions and creation of additional punishment provision about Organized insurance fraud are required. To notice duplicate insurance when sign up life insurance, the revision of the provisions is required. To limit unnecessary long-term hospitalization, hospitalization standard is required. Introduction of private investigator is required as a method for endowing with investigation to the staff of insurance companies. By providing information sharing laws between relevant agencies including insurance companies and law enforcement agencies, the foundation of information database, and the introduction of SNA Techniques in the IFAS,, you can detect Organized collusion crime.

In a case of an automobile rear-end collision, scale of the collision which are the extent of vehicle damage and the injury of the passenger is affected by the speed change. Based on the photographic interpretation of the actual accident cases in the Seoul and the Incheon area, this study measured the depth of crush and calculated the speed change from the statement data of the accident and speed, and also injury data such as diagnosis, hospitalization days are collected. The period of hospitalization and diagnostics claimed proves to have no statistical correlation with the depth of vehicle crush and speed change. Based on the statistical analysis from this study and previous foreign studies, we found that there have been 78.1% of personal accidents didn't reach the injury threshold. There should be objective information on the scale of accident accepting the claims-to-be-injured in the future, and application of injury threshold level suggested are considered to be very useful.

The number of hospital admissions for pneumonia tends to increase annually and even more, pneumonia, the fifth leading causes of death among elder adults, is one of top diseases in terms of hospitalization rate. Although mainly bacteria and viruses cause pneumonia, the weather is also related to the occurrence of pneumonia. The candidate weather variables are humidity, amount of sunshine, diurnal temperature range, daily mean temperatures and density of particles. Due to the delayed occurrence of pneumonia, lagged weather variables are also considered. Additionally, year effects, holiday effects and seasonal effects are considered. We select the related variables that influence the occurrence of pneumonia using penalized generalized linear models.
