한의학적 중요 진단방법의 하나인 맥진은 한의사 경험에 의해 구전되거나 전수되어 판단 기준이 모호하여 객관화 및 표준화하기 어려운 상황이다. 이를 위해 한의사가 맥진에서 측정하는 물리적 요소를 신뢰성 있게 측정할 수 있는 맥진기 개발이 진행되었으며, 측정된 맥진기 데이터를 이용하여 맥의 부/침, 허/실, 대/세의 정도를 판별할 수 있는 함수식을 만들어 향후 맥진을 자동으로 진단할 수 있도록 알고리즘을 산출하는 연구를 수행중이다. 그런데 맥진기는 환자의 맥파 신호 이외에 다른 정보를 고려하고 있지 않고 있지만 임상에서 한의사들은 환자의 키와 몸집 등 눈으로 관찰된 환자정보를 반영하여 맥진을 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 환자의 기초 정보 중, BMI가 맥진에 영향을 줄 것으로 가정하고, BMI와 연관성이 있을 것으로 예상되는 부/침, 허/실, 대/세의 판별함수 결과 값을 이용하여 BMI의 등급에 따라 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 부/침의 정도는 비만인 그룹에서 맥이 가라앉아있고 저체중인 그룹에서는 맥이 떠있는 경향이 나타났고, 대/세의 정도는 비만인 그룹에서는 맥의 굵기가 넓고 저체중의 집단에서는 맥의 굵기가 좁은 경향이 나타났다. 따라서 부/침, 대/세를 판별하는 진단 알고리즘을 개발할 경우 개인의 BMI를 고려한 진단 알고리즘이 연구되어야 하겠다.

Medical act divides unlicensed medical practice into medical practice by non-medical practitioners and unlicensed practice by medical practitioners. In the past, it was a common approach to strictly distinguish between western and Korean medicine, but the Supreme Court's Decision of December 22, 2016, Do. 21314, provided a new direction regarding the criteria for determining whether a Korean medicine practitioner is acting outside license. This paper analyzes the new criteria in detail, examines the significance of the new criteria, and explores its impact on the dualistic medical system. The difference between the new criteria and the previous criteria in the precedents is that the judgment is not based on the connection between Korean medicine principles and Western medicine principles. It is an advanced standard that actively accepts the overlap and variability of medical practice, moving away from dichotomous thinking that exclusively distinguishes between Korean medicine and Western medicine.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to examine strategies for improving the school doctor of Korean medicine (SDKM) program through an analysis of the sex education case in the medical vulnerable area. Methods : Sex education was conducted by one SDKM in three elementary schools in Wando county. The contents of sex education focused on the characteristics of puberty and the prevention of sexual violence. The survey conducted on sex-related knowledge, desirable perception of sex, and satisfaction with education before and after the sessions. Results : A total of 316 students participated in the education. A survey was conducted with 130 participants, and all 130 responded to the pre-survey. In the post-survey, 113 participants responded. After education, the sexual knowledge score of students increased from 4.04±1.87 points to 5.02±1.79 points, and the average satisfaction score was 4.14±1.05. Conclusions : Sex education for students in the medical vulnerable area is an effective education that increases sex-related knowledge, positively changes sexual perception, and has high satisfaction. To improving SDKM program, development of a standardized education program and administrative support is necessary.

Objectives: A restrospective chart review were conducted to investigate the overall weight loss effect of the integrated Korean medicine treatment on obese patients (body mass index [BMI] ≥25 kg/m²) in Korean medicine clinic and analyze the difference in the effect according to lifestyle behaviors. Methods: The medical records of 43 obese patients were retrospectively analyzed including body weight, BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, and body composition who received integrated Korean medicine treatment for 4 weeks at 24 Korean medicine clinics in Daejeon metropolitan city. All outcome measures were evaluated again 8 weeks after the end of treatment at week 12 for follow-up. EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D), the Korean version of the obesity-related quality of life scale (KOQOL) and patient's satisfaction were also evaluated. The analysis was divided according to the treatment period and observation period, and subgroup analysis was performed according to drinking and exercise habits. Results: Body weight, body fat, waist circumference, hip circumference, body fat were significantly reduced at week 4 and week 12. Theses weight reduction effects were significantly greater within treatment period (0 to 4 week) than observation period (4 to 12 week). Especially in the non-exercise group, the changes in body fat mass and body fat percent showed a significant difference between the treatment period and the observation period. KOQOL were also significantly improved at 12 week, but not in EQ-5D. No severe adverse events were observed. Conclusions: The integrated Korean medicine treatment could be effective to treat obesity including weight loss. It is necessary to prevent additional weight regain through regular exercise even after Korean medicine treatment.

Objectives: This study provides basic data for activating the school doctor of Korean medicine (SDKM) program by conducting a questionnaire survey for public health doctor of Korean medicine (PHDKM) Methods: The survey questionnaire was produced by referring to the previous satisfaction survey studies for the Doctor of Korean medicine applying for the SDKM program (SDKMP). The survey questionnaire was composed of 10 questions regarding the satisfaction level, difficulties in progress, and suggestions for activation. The survey was conducted online for a total of 35 PHDKM applying for SDKMP, and 32 responses were collected. Results: Of the 32 subjects, 9 (28.1%) conducted the SDKMP. The total satisfaction level of the SDKMP was 3.69 ± 1.12 points. The lack of a standardized manual and information system was the most difficult in the program's progress (43.8%), followed by the bad cooperation of the public health centers (40.6%), and the lack of personal circumstances (40.6%). The establishment of a system to enlist cooperation with related institutions was suggested the most as a question for activating the SDKMP (71.9%), followed by the expansion of the SDKMP manual and guidance system (53.1%), and the expansion of publicity about SDKMP (37.5%). Conclusions: To activate the SDKMP in a public health environment, it is necessary to improve the system to enlist cooperation with related institutions. Also, the need to expand the standardized manual, the guidance system, and the education to PHDKM about SDKMP.

올바른 결핵치료를 계몽하기 위하여 만든 홍보전시판 중의 하나가 문제가 되어 전국의 한의사와 한약종상 1,400여명이 삼일당에 모여 한의약모독성토대회를 열고 결핵협회의 공개사과와 관계책임자의 파면을 요구하며 떼어낸 전시판을 앞세우고 가두시위에 나섰다. 결핵협회의 좀 세련되지 못한 표현과 한의약계의 과잉반응이 빚은 1960년대 초의 시대풍경 한토막.

This paper is the study for the automatic pulse-power diagnostic system to discriminate the four constitutions with the piezo-sensor module and digital signal processing hardware attached on the patient arm-neck and the statistical decision software instead of the fingers and intelligence of a traditional korean doctor. This system can be used as a important medical equipment because this automatically diagnostic system has shown the excellent performance of the 65∼76% correctness against the 50∼66% correctness which the general korean doctors with knowledge and experiences have shown. Additionally, this paper has discussed the excellent characteristics of the automatic discrimination algorithm of the four constitutions.

This enable system integration for efficient data processing by interconnecting ASP and SQL, on-line consultation between patient and Korean medicine doctor, and semi-eternal use of medical examination data owing to storage and check of medical examination data(accurate medical examination and description using this medical examination data between patient and Korean medicine doctor). This is a Korean medicine remote examination system which converts from existing Korean medicine hospital system being maintained as existing off-line only to medical examination type of both on-line and off-line mode transcending time and space on web in which anyone can participate.
