A national wide survey was conducted to assess a present condition in management of cleft and craniofacial anomaly patients and training program of orthodontic residents in Korea. A questionnaire consisting of four categories and 19 question items was distributed to 131 residents of department of orthodontics of eleven dental university hospitals and nine medical university hospitals. The results were as follows:(1) 77.1% of residents are participating in treatment of cleft and craniofacial anomaly patients.(2) Only 47.3% of residents are willing to treat cleft and craniofacial anomaly patients in their future practice.(3) 64.9% of residents responded that they are currently treating one to ten cleft and craniofacial anomaly patients per resident.(4) Most university hospitals offer training programs focusing on embryopathogenesis, growth, and treatment, but training programs about speech and hearing, genetics, and psychosocial development are inadequate.(5) 37.4% of residents are willing to participate in fellowship program for cleft and craniofacial anomaly after finishing the training. Based on the results of this survey, the residents need motivation regarding treatment of cleft and craniofacial anomaly patients, and the educational programs need to be reinforced and reconstructed so that standardization among hospitals can be achieved.

Objectives Although clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) are becoming crucial in medical decision-making worldwide, there are very few development guidelines for children. Therefore, this preliminary study aimed to assess the status of worldwide except east asia-CPGs recommending complementary and alternative medicine interventions (CAM-i) in children worldwide except east asia in order to help developing Korean medicine CPGs (KMCPGs) for children. Methods To identify the current status of CPGs including CAM-i that have been developed so far, the author searched the related databases, and selected CPGs for children. The data related to the status of evidence-based CPGs, the materials related to the characteristics of CAM-i, and the details of recommendations for CAM-i were selected from the obtained findings. Results A total of 106 CPGs were identified based on the searches, of which 11 were finally selected as pediatric CPGs. These pediatric CPGs have been developed since 2007 to target various diseases. The countries developing these CPGs include the United Kingdom, Scotland, Australia, and the United States, with the U.K. having the largest share. The majority of CPGs used MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane library as databases. The most frequently recommended topic was acupuncture, followed by herbal medicine. Many CPGs suggested that more research was needed. Conclusions Through this study, the author was able to identify the characteristics of the developed pediatric CPGs that include CAM-i. More preceding studies are needed for the development of pediatric KMCPGs. It is hoped that this report can be used as the foundation for future development of pediatric KMCPGs.

통합 의료 정보 시스템은 의료 서비스의 질과 고객 만족도 향상, 환자의 안전을 우선으로 하는 시스템으로 다른 환경으로 구성된 단위 시스템을 통합하는 기능이 제공되어야 한다. RBAC 기반 의료 정보 시스템은 직종과 직책, 규칙에 따라 사용자는 접근 권한을 부여 받게 된다. 본 논문에서는 CRM 상담 서비스를 중심으로 한 멀티 채널 IPCC 컨택 센터의 플랫폼을 구현 하였다. 이를 통해 SMS MO, 진료 예약 및 취소, 상황별 통계, CRM/EMR 연동 서비스가 멀티 채널을 사용하여 상담원의 도움없이 통신 서비스가 가능하며 예약 환자의 부도율을 감소 시킬 수 있으며, 시스템 내부적으로는 RBAC 기반 CRM 상담 서비스는 권한 관리가 미리 생성되어 되어 있는 정보 테이블의 column을 조사하여 해당 테이블을 호출하는 procedure 및 object를 생성하고, 환자 정보를 나타나게 하여 개인 정보 보호를 전제 조건으로 접근 권한의 rule에 따라 환자별 상담 이력정보에 접근할 수 있으며, 의료 정보 사용 현황별 통계화면을 통해 추출된 정보들을 중심으로 상황별 운영 관리에 필요한 중요 지표를 관제 할 수 있어서 통합 의료 정보시스템의 운영 개선 서비스로의 확대 뿐만 아니라 환자에게 중요한 의사 결정시 의료진과 환자 및 가족에게 도움 줄 수 있다.

Objective: To check the status of traditional Korean medical doctors' medical services amid the continual increase in the number of traditional Korean medicine clinics. Methods: A survey of traditional Korean medicine clinics based on questionnaire sheets mailed to 4,200 out of 10,895 clinics, of which 465, or 11.0%, responded, in the June 1, 2008 to December 9, 2008 period. Results: 1. 65.6% of the traditional Korean responding clinics are doing business in a rented space; 92.1%of them are one-person institutions; 24.4% of them, i.e., the largest group of those surveyed, operate in a space sized 41 (123 $m^2$)~50 pyeong (150$m^2$). The number of sick beds installed in their facilities comes to 7.9 on average. 2. Concerning support staff, 190 of them (or 40.9%), i.e., the largest group of those surveyed, employ two people in this capacity. They generally comprise assistant nurses (48.7%) and others (47.6%). 3. The size of the space used by the clinics is showing a tendency to increase. The number of sick beds and support staff, including assistant nurses, reached a peak in 2006, and has been on the decrease since then. 4. The average number of on-days comes to six days a week among 92.6% of those surveyed. Their average daily service hours come to 9 hours and 33 minutes (from 9:17 am to 6:50 pm). 5. Per-patient service time: 14 minutes on average; per-patient acupuncture time: 18.8 minutes; per-patient moxa cautery time: 10.1 minutes per-patient; boil-cupping time: 5.7 minutes; per-patient physical treatment: 28 minutes. Conclusion: Periodical studies should be carried out concerning desirable ways of developing traditional Korean medicine clinics with the focus on the facilities, doctors' service hours, and types of service.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the status of Korean medicine treatment, and to analyze problems and demands to provide basic data on Korean medicine in military medical services. Methods: This survey was completed by 30 volunteer Korean medicine military doctors on service via a web-based questionnaire system. The questionnaire was developed through in-depth interviews with Korean medicine military doctors and consisted of general information on the subject, overall characteristics of the medical environment, current status of Korean medicine care in each workplace, problems and needs, and related clinical evidence and education. Results: Korean medicine military doctors administered acupuncture treatment most frequently in clinical practice. The most common complaints were related to musculoskeletal diseases, which accounted for 86.5% of all diseases, including those of the respiratory, digestive, and nervous systems. Most of the problems in Korean medicine care were pointed out as being due to a lack of awareness of Korean medicine in the military. Many doctors were aware that it is necessary to establish clinical evidence for Korean medicine in the military, and were also positive about the possibility of performing clinical research in the military, but the experience of actual participation in clinical research or related education was uncommon. Conclusions: Korean medicine military treatment differs from private medical care due to the specificity of each workplace and the military medical system. In the future, it will be necessary to establish an appropriate Korean medicine treatment model in the military suitable for these characteristics and strategic plans for clinical evidence.
