The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to explore the differences in the effect of aromatherapy according to the type of Sasang constitution. The subjects were fifty-three nursing students experiencing clinical practice from March 10th. 2000 to April 22nd, 2000. For experiment, researcher used inhalation of 2% grape seed oil mixed with Rosemary oil for 2 minutes and massage with same oil for 20 minutes on the back of subjects in the speed of 20 strokes per minutes. The instruments used for this study were Questionnaire of Sasang Constitution Class II program for personal computer developed by Kim Sun Ho et al., (1996), and Mood Questionnaire developed by Ryman. Biersner, & Larocco (1974). The concentration of IgA within saliva was analyzed by immunoturbidimeter assay. The data were analyzed using SPSS and hypotheses were examined with paired t-test and ANCOVA. The results were as follows : 1) The mean score of mood was increased significantly after aromatherapy. 2) The mean concentration of salivary IgA was increased significantly after aroma therapy. 3) There was no significant difference in the mean score of mood after aromatherapy according to the type of Sasang constitution, 4) There was no significant difference in the mean concentration of salivary IgA after aromatherapy according to the type of Sasang constitution. In conclusion, the results suggest that aromatherapy with Rosemary oil have effect on the improvement of mood and IgA within saliva in the nursing students under stress caused by clinical practice regardless of the type of Sasang constitution.

Background: The use of aroma oils dates back to at least 3000 B.C., where it was applied to mummify corpses and treat the wounds of soldiers. Since the 1920s, the term "aromatherapy" has been used for fragrance therapy with essential oils. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the essential oil of Eucalyptus (EOE) affects pain pathways in various pain conditions and motor coordination. Methods: Mice were subjected to inhalation or intraperitoneal injection of EOE, and its analgesic effects were assessed by conducting formalin, thermal plantar, and acetic acid tests; the effects of EOE on motor coordination were evaluated using a rotarod test. To determine the analgesic mechanism, 5'-guanidinonaltrindole (${\kappa}$-opioid antagonist, 0.3 mg/kg), naltrindole (${\delta}$-opioid antagonist, 5 mg/kg), glibenclamide (${\delta}$-opioid antagonist, 2 mg/kg), and naloxone (${\mu}$-opioid antagonist, 4, 8, 12 mg/kg) were injected intraperitoneally. Results: EOE showed an analgesic effect against visceral pain caused by acetic acid (EOE, 45 mg/kg); however, no analgesic effect was observed against thermal nociceptive pain. Moreover, it was demonstrated that EOE did not have an effect on motor coordination. In addition, an anti-inflammatory effect was observed during the formalin test. Conclusions: EOE, which is associated with the ${\mu}$-opioid pain pathway, showed potential effects against somatic, inflammatory, and visceral pain and could be a potential therapeutic agent for pain.

The clinical study was carried out the 41 patients with conversion disorder who were treated in Dae Jeon University Oriental Hospital from 26 september 1998 to 21 september 2000.The results were summarized as follows.1. The ratio of male and female was 4:37 and in the age distribution, the highest frequence was 40s, in descending order over 50s, 30s, 20s, 10s and mental attack was the most inducing factor.2. In distribution of the period of the clinical history. within one day was the highest percentage and in admission period most of the patients were from four days to seven days.3. In symptoms and signs, physical symptoms were more than mental symptoms, physical symptoms had many muscle-skeleton-system symptoms and they were in descending order general body weakness. headache, anorexia, chest discomfort, dyspepsia, dizziness, four extremities numbness, insomnia, dysarthria, anxiety, four extremities tremor. palpitation. nausea, vomiting, facial numbness.4. In classification of Four Human coporeal constitution the number of patients, Sho-Eum-In(少陰人) was remarked mostly and most of female patients had no past history of the conversion disorder.5. In distribution of the prescription, drugs of regulating gi such as BUNSIMGIEUM(分心氣飮) were many, in descending order drugs of growing heart and warming gall bladder such as ONDAMTANGGAMI(溫膽湯加味), drugs of maintaining patency for the flow of gi such as CHUNGGANSOYOSAN(淸肝逍遙散), drugs of decomposing food and asending gi such as PYUNGJINGUNBITANG(平陳健脾湯), drugs of storing blood and relaxing the mind such as SAMULGUIBITANG(四物歸脾湯). drugs of removing sputum and cooling heart such as CHUNGSIMDODAMTANG 淸心導痰湯).6. In distribution of the treatments, the group of drug and acupuncture and aroma-therapy was many, in acup uncture TAEGUKCHIMBUP(太極針法) was mainly used. in therapy inhalation type of Lavender and Rosewood was many and the type of Peppermint and Rosemary massaging epigastric-chest, and neck was many.7. In distribution of the treatment result, in 15 patients(36.6%) symptoms were eliminated from four to seven days, in 13 patients(31.7%) symptoms were not changed. in 12 patients(29.3%) symptoms were eliminated from two to three days. in 1 patients(2.4%) symptoms were eliminated whin one day.

목적: 본 연구의 목적은 향기요법이 스트레스에 미치는 효과에 대하여 메타분석 방법을 이용하여 연구결과의 정도를 종합, 분석하기 위함이다. 방법: 2000년 1월부터 2008년 2월까지 이루어진 연구를 대상으로 하여 국내 학위논문과 주요 학술지를 중심으로 추출하였으며, 향기요법이 스트레스에 미치는 효과를 연구한 45편의 논문 중 분석대상 기준에 적합한 논문 21편을 대상으로 하였으며, 자료분석은 통계프로그램인 SAS 9.1/PC을 이용하여 분석하였다. 결과: 최종 선정된 21편의 연구물로부터 58개의 효과 크기가 산출되었으며, 58개의 효과크기를 바탕으로 전체 효과, 종속변수의 지표별 효과, 연구대상 및 중재 방법에 대한 효과, 중재시간에 따른 효과를 산출하였다. 향기요법이 스트레스에 미치는 전체 효과크기는 .593으로 보통 효과크기로 나타났다. 스트레스의 지표별 효과 크기는 생리적 지표에서 보다 심리적 지표에서 훨씬 큰효과를 보였으며, 심리적 스트레스에서는 주관적 스트레스에 효과가 가장 컸고($\bar{d}$=.983), 생리적 스트레스에서는 코티졸($\bar{d}$=.648)과 맥박($\bar{d}$=.515)에서는 중간정도의 효과크기가 나타났으나, 수축기 혈압($\bar{d}$=.490)과 이완기혈압($\bar{d}$=.401), 에피네피린($\bar{d}$=.334)에서는 중재효과가 작은 것으로 나타났다. 대상자별 효과에서는 노인집단에서 .706으로 가장 큰 효과를 나타내었고, 암환자($\bar{d}$=.337)에게 가장 작은 효과로 나타나 집단간 유의한 차를 보였다(F=2.271, P=.043). 중재방법에 대해서는 향기요법과 마사지요법을 병행한 경우($\bar{d}$=.590) 가장 큰 효과로 나타났으나 중재시간별 효과크기의 차는 없었다 (F=.495, P=.687). 중재시간에 대해서는 $20{\sim}30#분의 중재를 한 경우 .730으로 가장 높게 나타났으나, 역시 통계적 유의한 차는 없었고, 중재 회기 수와 효과크기와의 상관관계는 r=.349로 나타나 통계적으로 유의한 차를 보였다(P=.007). 결론: 본 연구 결과 향기요법은 대상자의 스트레스를 감소시키는데 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으므로 향기요법을 이용한 간호중재 프로토콜의 개발과 그 실제 적용이 요구된다할 수 있겠으며, 프로토콜 개발 시 대상자의 특성과 중재 시간이 고려되어야 하겠다.
