Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe the health care experiences among patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods: Of the qualitative research methods, Colaizzi's phenomenological method was used in this study. A total of nine patients, who were diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and receiving outpatient treatment, were selected as the subjects of this study. Subsequently, data were collected through individual in-depth interview. Results: The four categories obtained as a result were 'strenuous efforts to control my own body,' 'subject of health that no one can replace,' 'focus on the current while expecting a breakthrough in health management,' and 'human dignity that cannot be lost to the end.' Conclusion: The study results are expected to help health care providers deeply understand the experiences in health care among patients with Parkinson's disease and to provide source data for nursing intervention development that can be helpful in managing the health status of patients with Parkinson's disease.

최근 우리나라는 물 부족 국가로서 물의 효율적 관리 필요성 증대, 기후변화에 따른 가뭄 홍수 피해 증가 등으로 신뢰성 있는 수문자료구축이 필요성이 요구되고 있다. 그 중 유량측정 분야는 모든 수자원 계획과 관리의 근간이 되는 분야로 그 중요성 또한 간과 할 수 없는 부분이다. 현재 우리나라에서는 한국건설기술연구원 산하 유량조사사업단에 의해 유량측정 주요지점에 자동유량측정 시설을 설치하고 이를 운영함으로써 각 지점의 특성에 따라 적절한 방식을 채택하여 이동시간차방식 초음파 유속계(UVM, Ultrasonic Velocity Meter)와 도플러방식 초음파유속계(ADVM, Acoustic Doppler Velocity Meter)를 설치하면서 향후 수문계측 분야 선진화를 위한 기초자료를 제공하고 있다. 하지만 실시간 무인화 계측시스템에 의해 제공되는 자료가 양질의 자료임을 보장할 수 없는 현실이기 때문에 측정된 기초자료의 필터링을 통한 자료의 질적 개선이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존에 전산분야의 필터링 방법으로 널리 알려져 있는 LPF(Lowpass Filter)와 KF(Kalman Filter)를 이용하여 자동유량측정 자료의 필터링 방법으로 활용하고, 그 적용성을 검토하였다. 본 연구를 통해 기존 유량자료의 문제점을 개선하고 효율적인 유량조사를 위한 기초자료 확보 방법으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

최근 스마트폰의 과다 사용과 관련한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 스마트폰 디톡스라는 새로운 개입방법이 소개되고 있다. 스마트폰 디톡스는 마치 단식을 통해 몸에 있는 독소와 노페물을 제거하듯이 스마트폰 사용을 잠시라도 중단하고 내면의 모습을 돌아봄으로써 스마트폰을 건강하게 활용하여 신체적 정신적 사회적 건강을 실천하자는 취지이다. 이러한 흐름에 발을 맞추어 본 연구에서는 대학생들의 과다한 스마트 폰 사용을 개선하고 전인적인 건강(well-being)을 실천하기 위하여 "스마트폰 디톡스 프로그램"을 개발하고 그 효과를 확인하였다. 서울의 S대학교 16명의 대학생이 전체 프로그램을 완료하였으며, 각 회기별 자기평가보고서와 사전-사후 설문조사(스마트폰 중독척도 정신건강척도 긍정심리자본척도 자기생활관리척도)를 완성하였다. SPSS 23을 이용하여, 사전검사와 사후검사에서 변수 간의 차이를 확인하기 위해 Wilcoxon 부호순위검정을 시행하고, 각 척도들 사이의 관계는 피어슨 상관분석을 이루어졌다. 그리고 자기평가보고서는 각 회기 참여에 대한 질적 자료로 분석되었다. 그 결과, 개입 프로그램을 통해 스마트 폰 중독 및 정신 건강 점수가 유의미하게 감소하였으며, 자기 관리 및 긍정심리자본의 평균 점수가 증가하였다. 더불어 프로그램이 진행되는 동안이라도 스마트폰 사용을 중단하고 건강한 신체, 긍정적인 정신, 역동적인 대인관계를 경험하면서 스마트폰을 지혜롭게 사용하고 주변을 여유롭게 돌아보는 변화가 생겼으며, 대학생들의 생활에서 스마트폰을 건강하게 사용할 수 있는 모습이 확인되었다.

병원 전 단계에서는 일반인 단계, 일차 반응자 단계, 기초응급의료 제공 단계 그리고 전문응급의료 제공단계로 구분되는데 각 단계의 적절한 병원 전 응급의료 서비스의 제공은 환자의 예후에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 국내의 일반인 단계 및 일차 반응자 단계의 응급의료 제공은 매우 낮은수준이며, 응급의료체계는 전문 응급의료가 뒤따르지 않는 기초 응급의료만을 제공할 뿐인데도 그 적절성에 대하여 많은 문제점이 지적되어 오고 있다. 우리나라의 병원 전 응급의료체계는 비교적 짧은 기간 동안에 소방서를 축으로 운영되고 있다. 병원 전 단계에서 응급처치의 적절성을 높이기 위해서는 119구급대에 의한 응급처치에 대하여 체계적으로 조사를 수행함으로써 기초 응급의료에 대한 지속적인 질 관리를 해 나가는 것이 매우 중요하다. 이러한 질 관리의 평가를 위해서는 적절한 평가도구가 필요한데 객관성이 높으면서도 비용-효과적인 도구와 지표는 아직 확립되지 못하고 있는 것으로 보인다. 그동안 119 구급대에 의한 응급처치의 적절성에 대하여 몇 차례 보고가 있었지만, 단일 기관 또는 단일 질병을 대상으로 수행된 연구였거나 일개 응급의료기관으로 이송된 환자들만을 대상으로 했던 비교적 소규모의 보고들이었으며, 한 도시를 전체를 대상으로 한 광범위한 조사가 이루어진 적은 아직 없었다. 이에 이 연구에서는 대구 경북 지역의 119구급대원을 대상으로 병원 전 응급처치의 실태와 및 교육현황을 조사하여 응급처치의 질적 향상을 위한 프로그램 개발에 필요한 기초 자료를 제공하고자 한다.

With quantitative and qualitative growth of libraries, number of books and patrons of the library are increasing rapidly. However, the growth brings up many new challenges to the library management process. One of the noticeable challenges is to ease the process of locating books users want. The purpose of this research is to develop a positioning system that can help library users locate books without going through tedious shelf searching process. The R-LIM system we propose can be used for such Purpose. It is based on the RFID technology, and consists of tags, readers, antennas, wireless terminals and light-emitting diodes. With the system, one may not only locate books easily, but also may put the book back to appropriate shelves promptly. Since R-LIM can do library inventory in real-time, it can be used fer anti-thief purposes as well.

Purpose: This study aimed to understand and describe the diabetes self-management experience of visually impaired people with diabetes. Methods: Ten participants were recruited through a website used by the visually impaired from February to March 2020. Data were collected through two focus group interviews conducted in June 2020; each group consisted of five participants. All interviews were recorded with the consent of the participants and transcribed verbatim. The transcribed data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Results: Seven categories were as follows; a two-faced, lifelong companion, an unprepared encounter, struggle to live, love-hate relationship with family, strategies to adapt, lessening attention to self-management, the desire to learn properly. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the visually impaired have fewer opportunities for receiving diabetes self-management education than general diabetic patients. Consequently, plans to improve the education available to such patients are required. Additionally, psychological counseling and diabetes education for patients' families are necessary, and improving the perception of medical workers regarding the visually impaired will be prove useful.

This study confirmed the relationship between variables developed by qualitative ground theory through quantitative research. The purpose of the study is to explain the effect of core sales tasks on sales services and the mediating effect of organizational member relationships on sales services. The data were collected through a survey of fashion brand salespeople in Gwangju from September to October 2020 with data from 235 responses analyzed using SPSS 27.0 and AMOS 26.0. The validity of the research model verified the confirmatory factor analysis and the research hypothesis was verified through path analysis and multi-mediated analysis of the structural model. The research results were as follows. First, sales management did not directly affect sales services, and customer management affected sales services. Second, a meaningful causal relationship was shown to exist between organizational member relationships and sales management, but organizational member relationships and customer management did not have a significant relationship. Third, the total and individual indirect effects of headquarters relations, colleague relations, and customer management were all statistically significant.
