Patients with fractured ribs necessarily suffer from severe chest ain, which prevents coughing, deep breathing and bronchial toilette, cause atelectasis and pulmonary shunting. Relief of chest pain is benecial to patients, providing consort and facilitating physiotherapy and effective expectoration. We compared the efficacy of pain relief be!ween continuous epidural analgesia and conventional intramlrscular analgesia in 20 patients with fractured ribs. Among 20 patients, epidural analgesia was done or 10 patients(experimental group) and the remainder ten received intramuscular analgesia(control group). The pain and ROM(range of motion) scores, vital sign, PaO2, forced vital capacity(FVC) and forced expiratory volume for 1 second(FEVI) were checked on immediate admission and 12, 24 hours, third, fifth, and seventh day after starting of continuous epidural block. The pain and ROM scores were decreased and the PaO2, FRC and FEVI were significantly increased in experimental group. The side effects of epidural analgesia were mild and reversible. With th se result, we can suggest that epidural analgesia is more effective for pain relief and restoration of pulmonary mechanics in patients with fractured ribs.

Radon which is natural component of air is a colorless and odorless radioactive gas. Radon exposure can also occur from some building materials if they are made from radon-containing substances by breathing. In this study, The radiation dose of radon concentration was detected at 8 buildings of the A university during 3-month from June. 2017 to August. 2017. We detected indoor radon exposure at 8 building of the university and estimated annual effective dose. The radon concentration of Hall G and Hall F of the A university represented 81 and $14Bq/m^3$ respectively and average indoor radon concentration represented $41.63Bq/m^3$. Average effective dose was estimated 0.40 mSv/y, maximum effective dose was 0.78 mSv/y and minimum effective dose was 0.13 mSv/y respectively. University is the place that students spend the almost whole time. We suggest ventilation and appropriate management of a building, which could reduce the natural radiation exposure by radon concentration.

The purpose of this study is to increase efficiency and accuracy in operation of CPR(Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) through comparing accuracy in CPR between group with verbal order and group with non-verbal order given carrying out CPR. This study performed convenience sampling targeting 62 students(31 people for group with non-verbal order, 31 people for group with verbal order) at university where is located in G Province. Survey period was carried out from October 7, 2010 to October 21. Analytical method was made by using SPSS WIN(Version 12.0). As a result of research, the group with non-verbal order was indicated to be higher in accuracy of CPR on artificial respiration and chest compression in several spheres than the group with verbal order. Based on this, the non-verbal order method needs to try to be applied to performing education and skills of CPR in the future. And, even a continuous research is needed on effectiveness between verbal order method and non-verbal order method in an emergency situation.

Precooling and improved packing of mushrooms were investigated with a view to prolonging their freshness. Harvested mushrooms were precooled by forced air cooling and then packed in an EPS container. Mushrooms were transported to customers by insulated truck and stored at either $10^{\circ}C\;or\;25^{\circ}C$. Conventionally packed mushrooms in cartons were also examined as controls. Mushroom respiration rate slowly fell 2- to 3-fold upon precooling. Weight loss was decreased by precooling and the use of the insulated pack. Also, the L-value of the mushroom surface remained high with precooling, and mushroom elongation was less than in the control. Summer market life was extended to 3-4 days (from 1-2 days) by the improved distribution method.

In roastal fish farms the farmers, especialy engaging in dealing with the floating cage culture, going to know about relationships between holding capacity and water quality in cage. Some of water quality managers and specialists studing physiological ecology understand that the key of water quality management concerned fish farming is budget of dissolved oxygen. This paper deals with oxygen budget in floating cage of the yellow tail farms at southern coastal area in Korea. The sampling station is located at Konli-Do fish farm near Chungmu, and the data is collected for 24 hours from 3:00 p.m. 8th September 1987. In result, the needed oxygen coming after the consumption by the rearing fish had been supplied with the tide current exchange, the sum of oxygen produced by phytoplankton photosynthesis and diffused from atmosphere are no more that $43\%$ for the needs of sea water consumption included respiration of planktons and decomposition of organic matters. The optimum holding capacity of cage is possible to compute with the calculation of minimum diurnal water exchange rate $[Qin{\cdot}V^{-1}\;(C-\bar{c})]$ through net mesh of cage.

Multiple symmetric lipomatosis is a rare disease characterized by progressive growth of subcutaneous fat masses which are located symmetrically at neck, shoulders, chest, abdomen and groin. Recent surveys revealed a high incidence of combined somatic and autonomic neuropathy. The exact cause of the disease is not known. We have experienced one case of multiple symmetric lipomatosis with mediastinal involvement with symptomatic compression of trachea. The patient was a 55-year-male, complaining of dyspnea and slowly enlarging multiple symmetric masses at the neck, shoulders, chest, abdomen, flank and groin over a period of 10 years. He had a habit of excessive alcohol intake for many years. The fatty masses in the neck and the upper mediastinum including peritracheal region were excised through transverse cervical incision. But, because of the incomplete excision of peritracheal fatty tissue, we performed reoperation for the relief of residual tracheal compression at the 15th postoperative day. Two days later emergent tracheostomy was performed due to postoperative pneumomediastinum and subcutaneous emphysema. He could discharge with permanant tracheostomy.

This is a report of a successful, rapid two-stage arterial switch operation in an infant with dextrotransposition of great arteries with an intact ventricular septum beyond the appropriate time for arterial switch operation.'A 4-month-old female infant was admitted due to severe cyanosis, respiratory insufficiency, and frequent dia rhea secondary to ischemic colitis. Echocardiographic examination presented marked leftward deviation of the interventricular septum, and left and right ventricular pressures as measured by cardiac catheterization were 40/4 mmHg and 85/2 mmHg, respectively. Fifteen days after a preparatory operation (pulmonary artery band with modified right Blalock-Taussig shunt), left ventricular-right ventricular systolic pressure ratio increased to 105/90. Arterial switch operation associated with the division of the right Blalock-Taussig shunt and the removal of pulmonary artery band was performed. A(leer the operation, the infant showed normal cardiac function with no postoperative complication.
