  • Purpose : The Varian's Eclipse radiation treatment planning system is able to correct radiation treatment thought leaf gap which is limitation MLC movement for collision with both MLC. In this study, I'm try to analyze dosimetric effect about the leaf gap in treatment planning system. And then apply to clinical implement. Materials and Methods : The Elclipse version is 10.0. In general, the leaf gap set to 0.05~0.3 mm and must measurement each leaf gap. The leaf gap measured by each LINACs and photons. We applied to measured each leaf gap in IMRT and VMAT. Changing the leaf gap, we evaluated treatment plans by Dmax, CI, etc. Results : When the same plan was evaluated with changing the leaf gap, an increase of 2-5% over the value Dmax, CI increases mm to 0.0~0.50 mm leaf gap. Volumetric modulated and intensity modulated radiation therapy plans all showed the same trend was not found significant between each radiation treatment planning. Conclusion : Generally, the leaf gap setting has a unique measure of the Multileaf collimator. However, the aging of the Multileaf collimator, calibration, and can be changed, after inspection and repair of the lip gap should eventually because these values affect the treatment plan must be applied to the treatment after confirmation. In some cases, may be to maintain the initial setting value of the lip gap, which is undesirable because it can override the influence on the treatment plan.

  • The purpose of this research is to develop evaluation indicators forperformance improvement of horticultural therapy garden. In order to achieve a therapeutic purpose, the gardening activity held by the trained horticultural therapist. Moreover, horticultural therapy is 'a medical model' for the treatment and basic premise of the research was set, as horticultural therapy garden is characterized area to support activities of patients and horticultural therapist functionally and efficiently. For this study, three times of Delphi and AHP techniques were proceeded to export panels who were recruited by purposive sampling. Through these techniques, it was possible to deduct the evaluation indicator which maximizes the performance of the horticultural therapy garden. The evaluation items were prioritized by typing and stratification of the indicator. The results and discussions were stated as followings. Firstly, a questionnaire of experts was conducted to horticultural therapists and civil servants who were in charge of horticultural therapy. As results(horticultural therapists: 87.8%, civil servants: 75.2%), It is possible to conclude that both positions have the high recognition and agreed on the necessity of horticultural therapy. Secondly, Delphi investigation was conducted three times in order to develop the evaluation indicator for performance evaluation. After Delphi analysis, total 34 of evaluation elements to improve the performance of the horticultural therapy garden by reliability and validity analysis results. Thirdly, AHP analysis of each evaluation indicator was conducted on the relative importance and weighting. Moreover, the results showed 'interaction between nature and human' as the most important element, and in order of 'plan of the program', 'social interaction', 'sustainable environmental', and 'universal design rule', respectively. On the other hand, the exports from the university and research institute evaluated the importance of 'interaction between nature and human', while horticultural therapists chose 'plan of the program' as the most important element. Fourthly, the total weight was used to develop weight applied evaluation indicator for the performance evaluation of the horticultural therapy garden. The weight applying to evaluation index is generally calculated multiply the evaluation scores and the total weight using AHP analysis. Finally, 'the evaluation indicator and evaluation score sheet for performance improvement of the horticultural therapy garden' was finally stated based on the relative order of priority between evaluation indicators and analyzing the weight. If it was deducted the improvement points for the efficiency of already established horticultural therapy garden using the 'weight applied evaluation sheet', it is possible to expand it by judging the importance with the decision of the priority because the item importance decided by experts was reflected. Moreover, in the condition of new garden establishment, it is expected to be helpful in suggesting ways for performance improvement and in setting the guidelines by understanding the major indicators of performance improvement in horticultural therapy activity.

  • 국내에서 1980년대까지 연탄을 에너지로 많이 사용하면서 일산화탄소 중독이 빈번하여 고압산소치료가 활용되다가 이후 연탄 사용의 감소로 고압산소치료기가 대부분 활용되지 못하고 폐기되는 경우도 많았다. 이후 세월호 사고에서의 잠수사들에 대한 고압산소치료 적용, 가스누출이나 번개탄을 활용한 자살시도가 빈번해지며 고압산소치료기를 보유하고 있는 기관이 부족해 적절한 치료를 제 때 받지 못하여 고압산소치료기의 필요성이 되두되었다. 국내에서는 2021년 기준으로 한해 36,266 건의 화재가 발생하고 2020년에 365명이 화재로 사망하며, 화재로 인한 손상은 1,917건이었는데. 화재 시 여러 유독가스를 흡입하게 되고, 이에 따라 고압산소치료가 필수적으로 진행되어야 한다. 유해화학물질 사고, 대규모 오염, 다양한 교통수단에서의 대형 사고, 건축물 붕괴 사고 및 대규모 지진, 화산폭발 같은 자연재해 시에도 가스 중독이 발생하며, 이는 고압산소치료가 필요하게 된다. 따라서 다양한 종류의 재난에서 발생하는 유독가스 피해자에게 고압산소치료는 필수적이나 본 연구에 의하면 국내에는 고압산소치료챔버의 숫자와 동시에 고압산소치료로 수용할 수 있는 환자수에도 한계가 있고 그 분포의 불균형도 존재하고 있어 재난 시 인명 피해 감소의 기반 장비, 시설로서 고압산소챔버의 균형있는 확산, 적용이 시급한 실정이다. 다행히 최근 전국적으로 고압산소챔버가 증가하는 추세에 있어 그 현황과 배치 상황을 조사하여 이를 통하여 고압산소챔버가 필요한 유독가스 발행 재난에 대비할 수 있는 역량이 증가하고 있다.

  • Introduction : Animal studies cannot be applied directly to Occupational Therapy(OT) intervention protocol. However, animal models still provide essential evidences and knowledge to improve OT practice and to develop OT theories as well as human studies do. The purpose of this scholarly paper is to explore the potential of animal models to inform OT theory and practice particularly as it relates to neuroscience. Body : The animal models provide related knowledge for a better understanding of the mechanism of diseases and related neural networks. Based on this knowledge, researchers can test their hypothesis of neural disease. In addition, accumulated animal studies contribute to introduce the new approaches to human diseases and to improve the effectiveness of treatment. Conclusions : Animal models of neurological disease are critical and have the potential to improve OT practice and theory in many ways. Therefore, OT researchers need to pay more attention to animal models in addition human studies.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the effects of therapeutic climbing training on upper limb function and quality of life of stroke patients and to suggest possibilities for clinical intervention. This study investigated 14 stroke patients who were assigned to either a treatment climbing training group or a control group (n=7 each). The experimental groups performed general physical therapy and occupational therapy. In addition, therapeutic climbing training using the Potsdam model was conducted for 30 minutes three times a week for 6 weeks. The control group performed general physical therapy and occupational therapy. A manual function test was used to evaluate upper limb function, and a short form 36-item questionnaire was used to evaluate quality of life. The results showed that there was a significant difference in upper limb function of the experimental group according to time (p<0.05). There was also a significant difference in the quality of life according to time in the experimental group, and a significant difference in quality of life between the experimental group and the control group (p<0.05). Therapeutic climbing training by stroke patients positively affected quality of life by increasing the SF-36 scores and upper limb function. Taken together, these findings confirmed that training using therapeutic climbing is valuable for rehabilitation and clinical intervention of stroke patients.
