  • According as the automation of clerical work(OA ; Office Automation) develops, the use of VDT(Visual or Video Display Terminal) is increasing suddenly. But, in proportion to the spread of office automation(OA tendency), the self-conciousness syptom attendant upon the work is appearing also (Kim, Jung Tae, Lee, Young Ook, 1990). The apparatuses of office enable the clerical workers to be convenient and perform mass businesses. But, they are increasing the opportunity to be exposed to VDT syndrom, techno stress, computer terminal disease, pain by muscle strain(RSI), bradycausia of noise nature, and electromagnetic waves, etc. which are referred to as the new type of occupational diseases to the workers. It is the real situation that the workers to use VDT is complaining of the physical inconvenience sense in the recent newspaper and literature, it is the point of time that the sydrome to come from VDT use and computer terminal disease, etc. must be classified into the occupational disease(Lee, Kwang Young 1990, Lee, Kyoo Hak 1990, Lee, Won Ho 1991, Lee, Si Young 1991, Lee, Joon 1991, Choi, Young Tae 1991, Heo, Seung Ho 1989). In addition, it is the real situation that the scientifitic study result about the scope that electromagnetic waves has influence on the human body has not been suggested yet, and criticism on the stable exposure permission standard about electromagnetic waves to be emitted from VDT and on the problem in the health about electromagnetic waves is continuing. (IEEE Spectrum, 1990). In addition according to the experience of nursery business of industry field, it is the real situation that the patients who consult complaining of physical and mental inconvenience sence, among the users of apparatus of office automation, are reaching 10% of the patients coming to doctor's room. Therefore, it is necessary to confirm the self-consciousness symptom that the clerical workers complain of multilaterally with the actual state examination about the use of the apparatuses of offices automaton. Thus, this study was tried as th basic data for the cosultation and education for the maintenance and furtherance of the health of workers as the nurse of industry field, by confirming the contents of self-consciousness symptom attendant upon the use of the apparatus for office outomation making the financial institution in which the spparatus for office automation in most frequently used as the subject, and by examining whether there is the difference according to the subject of study, the data were collected, by using the questionnaire method, making 200 workers who consented to the study participation as the subject, among the persons who have spent over 3 months since they used the apparatuses for office automation and didn't receive the treatment in hospital due to the clerical disease for recent 3 years. The period of data collection was from Oct. 9, 1991 to Oct. 12. As for the measurement instrument about the complaint if self-consciousness symptom attendant upon the use of apparatuses fo office automation, the question item on the complaint symptom of health problem attendant upon the treatment of VDT that Kim(1991) developed and on CMI health problem and the question items on the fatigue degree due to industry were used by previous examination to 25 persons. Collected data were analyzed with the statistical method such as percentage, arithmetic mean, Person correlation coeffient, Kai square verfication, t-test, ANOVA, etc. by using SPSS/PC+ program, and the result is as follows : 1. The self-consciousness symptom that the clerical workers complained of most frequetly appeared high in 'My eyes are tired'(99.4%), 'I feel fatigue and weariness'(99.4%), 'I feel that my head is heavy5(90.0%), 'eyesight fell'(88.8%), 'I have a stiff neck'(88.8%), 'I fell pain in the shoulder'(85.0%), 'I feel cold and painful in the eyes'(76.9%), 'I feel the dry sense of eyeball'(76.2%), 'My nerves are edgy, and I an fretful, (75.6%), 'I feel pain in the waist'(73.2%) and 'I fell pain in the back'(72.8%). It emerged that the subject use the apparatuses for office automation complained of self-consciousness symptoms related to visual symptoms and musculoskeletal symptoms. 2. As for the general feature of examination subjects, the result to see the distribution by classifying into sex, age, school career, use career of apparatuses for office automation, skillfulness degree of the use of apparatus for office automation, use hours of the apparatuses for office automation per 1 day, type of business of the apparatus for office automation, rest hours during the use of apparatus for office automation, satifaction degree of business of office automation, and work circumstance, etc. emerged as follows : As for the sex of subjects, the distribution showed that men were 58.8% and women were 41.3%, Age was average 26.9. As the distribution of school career, the distribution showed that4below the graduation of high school' was 58.8%, 'graduation from junior college-university' was 35.0%, and 'over graduate school' was 6.3%. In the question to ask the existence or non-existence of experience of health consultation in connection with the work of office automation, the response that I had the consultation exprience and I feel the necessity emergerd as 90.1% And, the case that the subject who didn't wear the glasses or lens before using the OA apparatus wear glasses or lens after using OA apparatus emerged as 28.3% of whole. As for the existence or non-existence of use career of OA apparatus, the case under 3 years was highest as 52. 7%. As for the skillfulnness degree about the use of apparatus for office automation, most of them are skillful with the fact that 'common' was 44.4%, 'skill' was 42.5%, and 'unskillful' was 13.1% As for the use average hours of the apparatus for office automation per 1 day, the distribution showed that the case under 3-6 hours was 33.1%, the case under 6-9 hours was 28.1%, the case under 3 hours was 30.6%, and the case over 9 hours was 8.1% Main OA business and the use hours for 1 day showed in the order of keeping and retrieval, business of information transmission(162min), business of information transmission(79.3 min), business of document framing(55.5 min), and business of duplication and printing(25.4min). as for the rest during the use of apparatus for affice automation, that I take rest occasion demands the major portion, but that I take after completing the work emerged as 33.8%. Though the subiness gets to be convenient by the use of the apparatus for of office automation, respondents who showed the dissatisfaction about the present OA business emergd high as 78.1%. The work circumstances of each office was good with the fact that the temperature of office was 21.8, noise was average 42.7db, and the illumination was average 364.4 lx, in the light of ANSi/HFS 100 Standard. 3. Sight syptom, musculoskeletal symptom, skin and other symptoms showed the significant difference according to the extent of skillfulness of the apparatus for office automation. All the symptoms exept skin symptom showed the difference according to the use hours of the apparatus for office automation. All the question items exept the sytoms of digestive organs and the rest hours during the apparatus for office automation showed the signicant difference. The question item which showed the signicant difference from the satisfaction degree of present OA business showed the significant difference from all the question item classified into 6 groups. But, age and school career didn't significant difference from the complaint of any self-consciousness symptoms.

    . In conclusion, the self-consciousness symptoms of the subjects to use OA apparatus appeared differently, according to sex distiction, skillfull degree of OA apparatus, use hours of OA apparatus, the rest hours during th use of OA apparatus, and the satiafaction degree of persent business. Therefore, it is necessary that the nurse in the inuctry field must recognize to receive the education about the human technological physical condition which is most proper for te use of OA apparatus and about the proper rest method until they get accustomed to the use of OA apparatus. In addition, the simple exercise relax the tention of muscle due to the repetitive simple movement, and the education for the protection of eyesight are necessary.

    • 충청남도 청양군의 2개면 14개리에 거주하는 비닐하우스 재배자 177명과 일반 농민 213명을 대상으로 1998년 2월 24일부터 3월 15일까지 피로도, 주관적 건강상태, 농부증과 이의 위험요인을 파악하기 위하여 설문조사를 실시한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 피로도는 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민간에 차이가 없었으며, 성별로는 여자가 남자보다(p<0.01), 교육수준이 낮을수록(p<0.01), 8시간 미만의 수면시간 (p<0.05), 비흡연자, 비음주자에서 피로도가 높았고, 연령, 식생활습관, 체질량지수는 관계가 없었다. 작업환경은 비닐하우스 재배자에서 총농사기간(r=0.159, p<0.05), 일반 농민은 총경작면적(r=-0.143, p<0.05)과 농작업동반가족수(r=-0.136, p<05)에서 약한 상관관계를 보였다. 2. 주관적 건강상태는 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민간에 차이가 없었으며, 성별로는 여자가 남자보다(p<0.01), 교육수준이 낮을수록 (p<0.01), 8시간 미만의 수면시간(p<0.05), 비흡연자에서 주관적 건강상태가 좋지 않았으며, 연령, 음주, 식생활습관, 체질량지수, 작업환경은 관련성이 없었다. 3. '농부증 있음'은 비닐하우스 재배자 49.2%, 일반 농민 52.1%로 비슷하였으며, 성별로 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민 모두 여자에서 57.0%, 58.8%로 남자 37.1%, 40.3%보다 높았다(p<0.01). 교육수준은 비닐하우스 재배자의 경우 무학 58.1%, 초등학교 50.0%, 중졸 이상 36.1%로 학력이 낮을수록 높았고(p<0.01), 일반 농민도 각각 56.3%, 51.0%, 33.3%로 같은 경향이었다(p<0.01). 흡연과 음주여부는 비닐하우스 재배자의 경우 비흡연군과 비음주군에서 높았으나, 일반 농민에서는 차이가 없었고, 체질량지수도 비닐하우스 재배자의 경우 세장형 57.1%, 비만형 63.9%로 정상형 42.5%보다 높았으나(p<0.05), 일반 농민은 차이가 없었다. 4. 농부증의 위험요인에 대한 다변량 로지스틱 회귀분석에서 성별, 수면시간이 중요한 요인이었으며, 남자를 기준하였을 때 여자의 교차비는 2.53(p<0.01), 수면시간 8시간 미만을 기준하였을 때 8시간 이상은 0.74로(p<0.01), 여자에서 발생위험이 높았고, 수면시간이 8시간 이상일수록 발생위험은 낮아졌다. 5. 비닐하우스 재배지와 일반 농민에서 많이 호소하는 주관적 신체증상은 '등이 결리거나 허리가 아파서 일하기가 어렵다.' '팔과 다리가 몹시 쑤시고 아픈 일이 있다', '손발이 저리거나 찌릿찌릿 하다'. '팔과 다리에 통증이 있어서 불편하다' '손의 힘이 전에 비해 약해졌다'에서 과반수 이상이 있다고 응답하였으며, 비닐하우스 재배자에서 일반 농민보다 많은 증상은 '피부의 일부분이 검게 변하였다'. '습진이나 무좀 등이 피부질환이 있다', '치질로 고생한 일이 있다'였다. 6. 대응분석 결과 비닐하우스 재배자는 피부계 질환이 높게 관찰되었으며, 남자는 소화기계 장애나 기타 질환, 여성에서는 내분비질환, 근육계통의 질환이 많은 것으로 나타났고, 농부증도 일반 농민과 여자에서 상대적으로 높은 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 피로도, 주관적 건강상태, 농부증도 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민간에 차이가 없었으며, 주로 농사와 노동일을 병행하는 여성에서 많고, 연령이 증가함에 따라 유병률도 증가하는 경향을 감안하면 추후 농촌의 노령환된 여성들에 대한 중점적인 관리가 필요하다. 또한 작업환경의 차이에 의하여 비닐하우스 재배자에서만 나타나는 미약하지만 특징적인 증상이 있으므로 이에 대한 지속적인 조사와 관리의 필요성이 있다.

    • Objective : Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that pathogenesis is not fully understood and one of the most intractable musculoskeletal diseases. The concern in the immunopathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis has been increased since 1980's and many immunotherapeutic agents including disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) were developed and became the mainstay of treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. However, the cure of the disease has hardly been achieved. In oriental medicine, rheumatoid arthritis is related to Bi-Zheng(痺證), that presents pain, swelling, andlor loss of joint function as major clinical manifestations, and also known to be deeply involved in suppression of immune function related to weakness of Jung-Ki(正氣). The herbal medicine, empirically used, could be a potential resource of development of new immunotherapeutic agents for rheumatoid arthritis. Methods : We developed a search strategy using terms to include "rheumatoid arthritis and herbal medicine" combined with "Chinese medicine" and/or "Oriental medicine". The search was focused on experimental studies of herbal medicine (January 1999 to May 2004), which is known to have effects on immune function of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Computerized search used Internet databases including KISS and RISS4U (Korea), CNKI (China), MOMJ (Main Oriental Medicine Journal, Japan), and PubMed. The articles were selected from journals of universities or major research institutes. Results : The literature search for experimental studies on effects of herbal medicine on immunity of rheumatoid arthritis retrieved a total of 21 articles (Korea; 8, China ; 12, Japan ; 1). Of 21 articles, 10 were related to single-drug formula, 2 to drug interaction, and 9 to multi-drug formula. Single-drug formula was mainly used for aqua-acupuncture and researches on active components. Studies of drug interaction emphasized harmony of Ki-Hyul(氣血) and balance of Han-Yeul(寒熱). Multi-drug regimen was mainly found among formulas for Bo-Ki-Hyul(補氣血) and Bo-Sin(補腎). Conclusion : Studies on rheumatoid arthritis were performed both in vitro and in vivo in vitro study, LPS-stimulated splenocytes and synoviocytes were treated with herbal medicine, resulting in proliferation and activation of immune cells and suppression of cytokine activities in vivo study CIA animal model demonstrated that herbal medicine decreased antibody production and improved function of immune cells.

    • This study deals with the current medical utilization for migrant workers and the characteristics of them. The purpose of this study is to provide the basic information to establish proper medical policy. For the study self-made questionnaire was used, which was answered by 453 migrant workers working in the area of manufacturing and non-technical work in 10 cities like Seoul, Inchon, Namyangju, Sungnam, Kwangju, Pyungchon, Kunpo, Kimpo, Masuk in Kyungki-do and Chunan in Chungchungnam-do. Besides, 303 medical records of those who had visited free medical check-up center were analyzed. The period of accumulating data is 6 months, from November 1st, 1996 to April 30th, 1997. The characteristics of migrant workers and current medical utilization are analyzed by percentage and the relation between characteristics and current medical utilization were analyzed using ${\chi}^2$-test, t-test, ANOVA. The finding of this study was as follows : 1) The number of nationality was 16. The first majority was Philippians as 32.0%. Among 16 nationalities Southeastern and Northern Asians were 48.9%, Southwestern Asian was 46.5%, the rest was 7.3%. Men were 81.0%, those who are aged from 26 to 30 were 39.0%, Graduatee from high school 92.7%, Christians 56.3%, unmarried 55.4% and salary from 600,000 Won to 800,000 Won 53.8% averaging monthly payment 669,810 Won. As for their residence, those who resided over 3 years were 31.9% and the illegal residence reached 77.4%. As for Korean language, those who speak in middle level were 5.6%. 2) As for kind of work and circumstances, manufacturing was 81.1%, 4 off-days per month 72.2% and 9-10 working hours per day 42.1%. As for accommodation, residence in fabric was 62.6% and one or two members as roommate 40.2%. 3) The characteristics of health behavior showed that 89.4% of migrant workers had 3 meals, 70.9% of them did not drink alcohol, 73.5% of them did not smoke. 4) As a characteristic of health status, 71.8% of them perceived of their health. 76.1% thought that they had no illness before coming Korea. Among them who recognized their illness, those who had problem in circulatory system was 35.3%, respiratory system ENT 19.1% and nervous system 19.1%.66.2% of those having illness had already had sickness when coming to Korea. 5) During last one month, 79.2% of them were known as ones having no illness. Among the sick, those who had problem in circulatory system was 31.6%, nervous system 23.7% and respiratory system 21.1%. 60.3% of the sick were not cured at that time. 6) Sorting the symptom of those who visited free medical check up, dental care was 24.2%, orthopedic 14.0% and digestive system 13.8%. Teethache was 34.4%, stomach problem 11.6%, upper respiratory inflammation 10.2% and back pain 5.9%. Averagely they visited free medical check up 1-2 times. According to symptom, epilepsy 25.5 times, heart and vascular disease 9 times, constipation 2.8%, neurosis 2.38 times and stomach problem 2.34 times. 7) The most frequently visited medical service by migrant workers was hospital. The most mentioned reason was good healing as 36.3%. The medical service satisfied migrant workers mostly was hospital as 64.3%. The reason of satisfaction was also good healing as 45.9%. 8) 77.2% of respondents did not spend money for medical check. Average monthly medical cost was 25,100 Won, 3.7% of income. Those who had no medical security was 73.4%. In their case, 67.7% got discount from hospital or support from working place and religious organization. 9) As for the difference of medical utilization according for the characteristics of migrant workers, legal workers and no-Korean speaker used hospital more frequently. 10) Those who were satisfied most of all with the service of hospital were female workers, hinduists and buddhists, legal workers or manufacture workers. 11) Christians, those who have 3 meals or recognize themselves as healthy ones mostly had no illness. As a result, the most of migrant workers in Korea are from Asia. They are good educated but are working in manufacturing and illegal. Their average income is under 700,000 Won which in not enough for medical cost. They have no medical security and medical fee is supported by religious organization or discounted. Considering these facts the medical policy by government is to be established.

    • The study was carried out at W. hospital, an affiliated hospital of Y university, involved a total of 163 patients who were discharged from the hospital between May 1990 und March 199J. Data collection was twice, just prior to discharge and a minimum of three months post discharge. Thirty patients who lived within a hour travel time of the hospital received home care during the three months post discharge. Nursing diagnoses and nursing interventions For these patients were analyzed in this study. The results of the study are summarized as follows : 1. Discharge needs for the subjects of the study were analyzed using Gordon's eleven Functional categories and it was found that 48.3% of the total sample had identified nursing needs. Of these, the needs most frequently identified were in the categories of sexuality, 79.3 %, health perception, 68.2 % self concept, 62.5 %, and sleep and rest 62.5 %. Looking ut j he nursing diagnosis that were made for the 30 patients receiving home care, the following diagnoses were the most frequently given; alteration in sexual pattern 79.3%, alterations in health maintenance, 72.6%, alteration in comfort, 68.0%, depression, 64.0%, noncompliance with diet therapy, 6.3.7%, alteration in self concept, 55.6%, and alteration in sleep pattern, 53%. 2. In looking at the effects of home nursing care as demonstrated by changes in the functional categories over the three month period, it was Found that of the 11 functional categories, the need level for health perception, nutrition, activity and self concept decreased slightly over the three month period. On the average sleep patterns improved, but restfulness was slightly less and bowel elimination patterns improved but satisfaction with urinary elimination was slightly less. On the other hand, role enactment, sexuality, stress management and spirituality decreased slightly. The only results that were statistically significant at the 0.05 level were improvement. in digestion and decrease in pain. No statistically significant changes were found in ability related to ADL, the total ADL Score at discharge was $19.78{\pm}8.234, and after 3 months $19.01{\pm}8.12$. Considering that a majority of the patients were over 60 years of age and that many had brain or spinal cord injuries, the fact that their ADL ability did nor deteriorate after discharge can be interpreted as related to a positive impact by the home health care nurses. Similarly there was a slight be not statistically significant decrease in the quality of life scores between the two lest times(l47.83 at discharge and 113.02 at the three month period). Again, when the chronic nature of thee problems facing these patients is considered this maintenance of quality of life can be interpreted as a positive impact by the home health care nurses. 3. One of the home care nursing activities was diagnosis. For this activity it was found that for nine functional health categories(sexuality and spirituality excepted) there were 20 nursing diagnoses. The most frequent were noncompliance, alteration in skin integrity both actual and potential, and impaired physical mobility in that order. 4. Delivery of home health care by the home health nurses included the following nursing activities; assessment, patient education, demonstration of care activities, counselling, direct care to the patient and referrals. Direct care included changing dressings, bladder irrigations, changing Foley catheters, measurement of residual urine, perineal care, position change, back care, oral hygiene, exercise and massage of motion exercises, cleansing enemas, tracheostomy suctioning and tracheostomy care, care of dentures, applications of heat and other similar nursing activities. In conclusion almost 50% of (he sample indicated a need for continued nursing care at the time of discharge and for the patients in the sample who received home care there was a slight decrease in nursing needs but while the patients had chronic and debilitation problems there was ill decrease in ADL abilities or in quality of life. Further study needs Lo be done La increase the reliability and validity of the tool that was used to measure home health care needs. It is also recommended that study by done using a randomized sampling with a control group to compare patients who receive home care with those who do not.

    • 골다공증 환자를 대상으로 이중 에너지 X선 흡수(DEXA) 방법을 이용한 골밀도 영상에서는 T-score를 측정하고 자기공명영상 기법 중 확산강조영상에서는 신호대 잡음비와 현성 확산 계수를 측정한 다음 T-score변화에 따라 신호대 잡음비와 현성 확산 계수가 어떻게 변화하는지 알아보았다. 골다공증이 없는 건강한 사람 30명과 2009년 1월부터 2009년 12월까지 허리 통증으로 내원한 환자 중 단순 방사선 촬영에서 골다공증 소견이 보이는 환자 30명을 대상으로 Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA)를 이용하여 척추 L1-L4부위의 T-score를 측정 후 각각의 척추에 대해서 골감소증, 골다공증으로 분류하였다. 1.5T MR scanner를 이용하여 b value를 $400\;s/mm^2$으로 획득한 확산강조영상에서는 L1-L4 네 부위에서 신호 강도(signal intensity)측정을 하였고 현성 확산 계수(apparent diffusion coefficient; ADC) map 영상에서는 현성 확산 계수를 측정하였다. 정량적 분석방법으로 관심영역의 T-score와 신호대 잡음비(signal to noise ratio)와 ADC를 구하고 평균화 하여 관심영역에서 T-score변화에 따른 신호대 잡음비와 현성확산계수의 변화를 비교하였고 T-score에 의해 골감소증, 골다공증으로 분류하여 그룹별로 신호대 잡음비와 현성확산계수의 변화도 비교하였다. 정성적인 분석방법은 육안적으로 건강한 그룹과 골감소증, 골다공증그룹의 T1강조 시상면 영상에서 요추체중 L4 부위에서의 신호강도 차이를 알아보았다. 정량적 분석에서 골감소증 그룹과 골다공증그룹은 T-score가 감소함에 따라 확산강조영상에서의 신호대 잡음비가 감소하여 나타났으며 골다공증 그룹에서 신호대 잡음비가 가장 크게 감소하였다. ADC map영상에서는 골감소증그룹과 골다공증 그룹은 T-score가 감소함에 따라 현성 확산 계수는 감소해서 나타났고 건강한 그룹과 골감소증 및 골다공증 그룹의 경우 현성 확산 계수 차이는 골다공증 그룹에서 현성 확산 계수가 가장 낮게 나타났다. 정성적 분석에서는 건강한 그룹과 골감소증 및 골다공증 그룹에서 L4 부위의 신호강도는 건강한 그룹에서 가장 낮게 나타났고 골다공증그룹에서 높게 나타났다. 골다공증이 진행 될수록 신호대 잡음비와 현성 확산계수는 감소하고 T1강조 영상에서는 신호강도가 증가 하는 결과를 얻었고 자기공명검사가 골다공증 진단에 유용함을 알 수 있었다.
