  • Children from low income families are vulnerable to physical problems including obesity, asthma, hypertension and psychological problems including depression, anxiety. This study was done to identify trends in welfare policy for children from low-income families and future direction for solving health disparity problems. Dream Start is a government-sponsored project that offers services for vulnerable children, ages 0 (include pregnant woman) to 12 years and their families. The Korean Government has made an effort to alleviate health disparity through the 'Health Plan' by establishing health objectives. However, in spite of these efforts by the Korean government, health disparity has worsened in Korea. In order to strengthen family function as well as promote growth and development for vulnerable children, experts in child care need to be significantly involved in identifying neglected children in the community.

  • 본 연구는 국내 공공도서관의 어린이청소년서비스 및 프로그램의 현황을 조사하고 문제점을 파악하여 개선방안을 도출하고자 하였다. 2016년 기준 국가도서관통계시스템의 자료와 전국 108곳의 공공도서관 어린이청소년서비스 담당사서들로부터 설문조사를 통해 어린이청소년서비스 현황을 파악하고 서비스 수준에 대한 사서의 인식을 조사하였다. 분석 결과, 공공도서관은 인력 및 예산의 부족, 시설의 협소함, 유연하지 않은 프로그램 내용 등의 문제점이 서로 복합적으로 작용하여 서비스 수준을 높이기 어려운 상황임을 나타냈다. 이에 대한 개선방안으로 어린이청소년의 흥미 유발 및 참여자 간 유대감을 형성하는 프로그램 개발, 학교 및 지역 내 유관기관과의 연계활동 증진, 도서관 프로그램의 참여를 높이기 위한 다양한 방식 제안, 정보 소외계층 중점 서비스의 제공, 그리고 도서관 발전을 위해 다양한 정책적 지원 요청 등을 제안하였다. 이렇듯 본 연구는 프로그램 기획부터 정부 및 지자체의 지원방안까지 다방면의 개선방안을 제안함으로써 도서관이 나아갈 방향을 제시하였다.

  • Purpose: In this study, we investigated the clinical profile, survival at discharge, and proportion of children with acute liver failure (ALF) meeting the criteria for, yet surviving without, liver transplantation (LT). Methods: Medical case records of children aged >28 days to ≤15 years over a period of 7 years, identified from pediatric admission and discharge registers, were screened. Children satisfying the criteria for ALF were included in this study. Results: A total of 71 records meeting the pediatric ALF (PALF) criteria were included. The survival rate at discharge was 61% (n=44). A considerable proportion of children satisfied the King's College Criteria (KCC) (56.3%) and the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) criteria (7%) for LT at admission. Nonetheless, the survival rate in the absence of LT was 42.5% in children who satisfied the KCC and 20% in those who met the EASL criteria. Infection (29.5%) and paracetamol overdose (19.7%) were the major identifiable causes of PALF. Hepatitis A was the most common infection identified. No significant predictors of poor outcomes were identified in multivariable analysis. Conclusion: Our study highlights the changing survival rates and the clinical and etiological profiles of patients with PALF. In areas with poor access to LT services, survival in these children could be improved through early referral to centers with adequate intensive care facilities. Preventing ALF and referring patients to LT services are paramount to reducing mortality.

  • Purpose. This study examined the predictive factors enabling access to children's oral health care at the level of financial barriers, beliefs, and the provider. Methods. In-depth interviews were conducted with 320 immigrant mothers of low-income families regarding their use of oral health services for children aged four to eight years old. Access to oral health care was measured with frequency of planned dental visits, continuity of care, and age at first visit to dentist. Results. The mother took her child to the dentist at a younger age if she received referrals to a dentist from pediatrician. Regular dental visits were significantly related to household income, provider availability on week-ends, and insurance coverage. The extended clinic hours in the evenings, and the belief in the importance of the child's regular dentist visits increased the likelihood of continuing care. The mothers perceiving a cost burden for the child's dental care were also less likely to return to the dentist. Conclusion. The available care delivery system, coordinated medical care, and health beliefs were among important predictors of the health service use. The study findings suggest need for culturally competent dental health interventions to enhance access to oral health care among particularly vulnerable populations such as low-income children in Korean communities.
