공중보건 일반의사들의 업무수행 정도와 진료, 예방 및 보건증진 사업 수행에 필요한 기본적인 수기의 수행능력을 평가하고 그들의 업무 수행능력을 향상시키기 위한 교육 개선 방안을 마련하기 위하여 1982년과 1983년에 배치된 공중보건 일반의사들 가운데 남부 4개도(경북, 경남, 전북, 전남)에서 출신학교별로 비슷한 비율로 120명을 무작위로 뽑아 1984년 1월 9일에서 2월 10일 사이에 설문지를 이용한 집단면담을 하였다. 면담에 응한 97명 가운데 본 조사에 필요한 자료를 제시할 수 있었는 86명으로 부터 얻은 자료를 분석하였다. 보건지소의 진료실적은 2종 보험실시 지역이 1일 평균 $30{\sim}40$명으로 환자가 많으나 그외 지역은 $3{\sim}4$명으로 매우 저조하였다. 또한 예방 및 보건증진사업을 적극적으로 추진한다고 답한 사람은 조사대상자의 2%에 불과했다. 63가지 기본적인 임상수기 가운데서 자신있게 할 수 있다고 한 사람이 50%이상인 것은 근육주사, 정맥주사, 외상치료와 같이 간단한 것으로 12가지에 불과했고 임산부관리, 응급환자처치, 예방 및 보건증진 사업등에 필요한 수기에 자신이 있는 사람은 10%도 못 되었다. 국립보건원에서 실시하고 있는 공중보건 일반의사들의 실무교육이 현지 사정과 맞지 않는것이 많아 실무에 큰 도움이 안 된다고 했으며, 도립병원이나 지방 종합병원에서 받은 임상수련이 실무에 많은 도움이 된다고 한 사람은 38.8%였으며, 별도움이 안된 이유 가운데 전문의가 없거나 있어도 무관심하여 수련지도가 부족한 탓이라고 한 사람이 48.4%로 가장 많았다. 공중보건일반의 실무교육은 교육내용을 실무종사자들의 의견을 수렴하여 현지 사정에 맞도록 개선해야할 것이며, 실무종사자들 가운데 유능한 사람을 강사로 활용하고, 국립보건원에 모아 교육시키는 것보다 전국을 몇개의 지역으로 나누어 지방에서 교육을 시키는것이 효과적일 것이다. 임상실습은 4개월이 적당할 것으로 생각되며, 수련기간 동안에 필수적으로 익혀야 할 수기를 수첩으로 만들어 실습사실을 지도전문의에게 확인 받게하며, 보건사회부에서는 수련지도에 관한 지침을 마련하여 수련병원에 배부하고 수련상황을 평가하도록 한다. 최소한 기본 4과에 전문의를 갖춘 병원을 수련병원으로 선정하여야 할 것이다. 공중보건 일반의사들이 현지에서 당면하는 문제해결을 도우고 사업추진을 위한 동기를 유발하기 위해 보수교육이 필요하며 이를 위해 보건사회부는 재정 및 행정적 지원을 하는 것이 좋겠다. 도를 몇개지역으로 나누어 지역마다 지도위원회를 구성하여 공중보건 일반의사들을 순회지도 하고 자문에 응하도록 하는 것이 좋을 것으로 생각된다.

As the society is being industrialized, the fast-paced economic development that has caused substantial increase in cerebrovascular and coronary artery diseases and the industrial development and increased use of means of transportation have resulted in the rapid rise of incidents in external injuries as well. So the pubic has become acutely aware of the need for fast and effective emergency care delivery system. The goal of emergency care delivery system is to meet the emergency care needs of patients. The emergency care delivery system is seeking to efficiently satisfy the care needs of people. Therefore the purpose of this study is designed to develop an effective programs for emergency care delivery system in Korea. The following specific objectives were investigated. This emergency care delivery system must have the necessary man power, for transfering the patients, communication net work, and emergency care facilities. 1) Man power Emergency care requires n0t only specialized traning in the emergency treatment but also knowledge and experience i11 other related area, so emergency care personnel traning program should be designed in order to adapt to the specific need of emergency patients. It will be necessary to ensure professional personnel who aquires the sufficient traning and experience for emergency care and to look for legal basis. We have to develop re-educational programs for emergency nurse specialist. They should be received speciality of emergency nursing care so that they will work actively and positively in emergency part. Emergency medical doctor and nurse specialist should be given an education which is related in emergency and critical care. Emergency care personnel will continue to provide both acute and continuing care as partner with other medical team. 2) Transfering the patients. Successful management of pre-hospital care requires adequate traning for the emergency medical technician. Traning program should be required to participate in a actual first aids activites in order to have apportunities to acquire practical skills as well as theoretical knowledge. The system of emergency medical technician should be remarkablly successful with first responder firefighters. Establishing this system must add necessary ambulances operating at any given time. It will be necessary to standardize the ambulance size and equipment. Ambulance should be arranged with each and every fire station. 3) Communication net work. The head office of emergency commumication network should be arranged with the head office of fire station in community. It is proposed that Hot-line system for emergency care should be introduce. High controlled ambulance and thirtial emergency center should simultaneously equip critical-line in order to communication with each other. Ordinary ambulance and secondary emergency facility should also simultaneously equip emergency-line in order to communication with each other. 4) Emergency care facilities. Primary emergency care facilities should be covered with the ambulatory emergency patients-minor illness and injuires. Secondary emergency care facilities should be covered with the emergency admission patients. Third emergency care center should be covered with the critical patients who need special treatments and operation. Secondary and third emergency care facilities should employ emergency medical doctor and emergency nurse specialist to treat in-patients with severe and acute illness and multiple injuires. It should be fashioned for a system of emergency facilities that meets emergency patients needs. Provide incentives for increased number of emergency care facilities with traning in personal/clinical emergency care. 5) Finance It is recommended to put the finance of a emergency care on a firm basis. The emergency care delivery system should be managed by the government or accreditted organizations.

The purpose of this paper is to understand the prescription and management of medicines by school-nurses. A survey was mailed to 199 school-nurses in elementary and secondary schools in Pusan from February 10 to March 31, 1997. It was shown that 97.0% of the schools have visiting school-doctors and only 29.6% have visiting school-pharmacists. 36.7% of the respondents don't know the amount of this annual health-related budget. Concerning the annual budget of purchasing medicines, 50.4% of the elementary schools spend 210,000 won to 400,000 won and 45.0% of the secondary schools spend more than 610,000 won. 56.3% of the respondents said the budget was enough, but 5% said it was not. 70.9% of the schools purchase medicines twice a year. The average number of students visiting the nurse in a year are 1,892 in elementary schools, 1.6 times per student and 2,471 in secondary schools, 1.7 times per student, respectively. The annual average number of students who were prescribed medicine a year are 1,804 in elementary schools, 1.5 times per student, 2,372 in secondary schools, 1.7 times per student. The percentage of students who are prescribed internal medicines was 45.5% in elementary, schools and 61.3% in secondary schools, respectively. To the preralence sicknesses, the wound was the most common, accounting for 42.7% in elementary and 22.6% in secondary schools. Next was abdominal pain, indigestion, and headaches in elementary schools; and colds, indigestion, and abdominal pain in secondary schools, respectively. To the dirersity of medicines prescribed: internal medicines 29 for abdominal pain, 25 for indigestion, 8 for physiological pain, 13 for headaches, 30 for colds, and 10 for eye disease; external medicines 2 for skin disease, 10 for toothaches and 31 for other sicknesses. 42.7% of the respondents said the schools have enough medicines, but 7.6% said that schools need more. 50.8% of the respondents said they get information on medicines from TV advertisements or medicine-related books, 16.6% get information from visiting pharmacists. More experienced nurse-teachers are likely to get information from visiting pharmacists, but 37.5% of the respondents who have less then four year experience in school get information through other nurse-teachers before deciding to buy medicines. To the choice of medicines: 83.9% of the respondents said that they choose safe medicines with less side-effects. 40.7% responded that they write down the prescription history daily, but 6.1% said they do this only once in two or three months. To the confidence in prescriptions, 37.7% of the respondents said they are sure of the effectiveness of the medicines they prescribe. To what extent the nurse-teachers prescribe, 50.3% said they prescribe to the level of anagelics, and 21.1% prescribe to anti-histamines and antibiotics. 80.4% said that the details of illnesses and medicines to be prescribed in school should be regulated by a school health-care law. To the problems in prescription, 79.9% of the respondents worry about abuse by students who want prescriptions but have no serious illnesses, 57.8% worrg about the lack of information on medicines and dosage. And 55.8% said they can't tell the difference between medicines whose brands are different, but bare the same ingredients. The conclusion of this study is that a health education program is necessary to prevent the misuse or abuse by students and a continuing education program for school-nurses is needed to solve the problems related to the purchasing and prescription of medicines. The criteria of the prescription of medicines also should be regulated by a school health-care law or management acts.

An important role of community health nurses in health centers is to solve community health problems found through data collection methodology which has been used to identify the health needs of the community, diagnose the health problems and to plan health programs suitable for the health problems. Also community health nurses must be prepared to know the community health needs and to participate in the planning process. Since 1956 when the health center law was established, community health nurses have really implemented only the services which the government has asked them to do. This has kept them busy enough. But these days as society is in rapid change, community health nurses should have the flexibility to deal with the social change and demands that are unique to their community each which has different health needs and demands. So community health nurses need to identify what community health problems exist in their particular communities. The purposes of this study were as follows. 1) To explore the suitability of the health programs which the government has asked the community health nurses to do for their own communities and if these programs are not suitable, to explore the reasons why. 2) To explore the degree to which the community health nurses have the ability to identify health problems in their own communities and activate the community diagnostic process. 3) To identify the degree that the community health nurses have the ability to implement plans related to community diagnosis. 4) To find out how much data related to community health problems, the community health nurses have and how they are utilizing it. 5) To measure the community health nurses self-confidence concerning diagnostic activities for community health. The study subjects were 454 Community Health Nurses working in Health Centers in Seoul, Korea. The period of data collection was 6 days(Nov. 9th 1991-Nov. 15th 1991). A questionnaire used for data collection was composed of three different items; general characteristics, community health diagnostic activities and self-confidence in performing diagnostic activities. The results of the study are as follows. First, over one third of the respondents replied that the government required activities for their communities are not appropriate. Of these activities the most frequent reply $(51.2\%)$ indicated that many of the activities in the community were inappropriate to the actual situation. Further, $25\%$ of the replies indicated that many activities were only administratively oriented and as such not appropriate. Second, $49.8\%$ of the respondents replied that they had done general assessments and had a general idea of the health problems of their community. Effective solutions to health problems could be found with an increase in health personnel and management ability according to $41.5\%$ of the respondents. Third, to the question as to whether they had ever independently implemented a plan towards solving community diagnosed problems, $52\%$ of nurses replied 'never', $40\%$ 'occasionally' but only $7.5\%$ replied that they did it frequently. Actually there was very little done even in the basic work of collecting the necessary data. Fourth, when asked how much of basic information they had collected that might be used in community diagnosis activity, of 26 items in 5 areas, there was hardly one for which complete data had been collected. Fifteen percent did have data on the geographical aspects of their area, housing distribution and types of housing, while $17.8\%$ knew the frequency with which the health center was used. Concerning community resources, even with a list of community resources, only $12.3\%$ had data on any of these resources, and this data was incomplete. Further, information about social work institutions, and facilities was also incomplete, only $14.2\%$ of the respondents had any data and even it was incomplete; that is, in general, the nurses did not have this information. Fifth, concerning the confidence of the community health nurse in their ability to carry out community diagnoses activities, $60\%$ replied that they were very or at least nominally confident, indicating that although they were not doing community diagnostic activities they felt they could do so, as they were carrying out home visits and program planning as part of their official duties. The following recommendations are made based on the results of this study. First; since the community health nurses have a high perception of the need for community diagnostic activities and. high confidence in their ability to carry out this activity and high percentage of respondents replied that with a little training they could do this even better it is recommended that community diagnostic activity training be included in the continuing education program for community health nurses. Second, in order for the Community Health Nurses to successfully solve the health problems of their respective community they reported to a need to increase the number of health personnel, improve the facilities and the system of managing their work. Considering this, it is recommended that ways be sought to remedy these deficits.

목 적：10대 임신의 보다 정확한 역학적 접근을 위한 일련의 연구의 첫 단계로, 우선 의료 일선에서 10대 산모를 돌보고 있는 산부인과 전문의들을 대상으로 하여, 이들이 현장에서 인지하고 있는 10대 임신의 현황과 문제점 및 정신과 자문에 대해 파악코자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법：10대 임신의 빈도, 특성, 출산과 중절의 결정과정, 산모 및 신생아의 산부인과적, 정신과적 문제점, 정신과 자문 필요성을 중심으로 한 구조화된 설문지를 작성하여 전국 2800명의 산부인과 전문의에게 우편으로 배포한 후 회수된 349명의 자료를 분석하였다. 결 과：(1) 10대 임신의 빈도는 약간 증가한다는 추세였으며, 10대 임신모가 처음 병원을 방문하는 시기는 임신초기와 중기가 가장 많았으며, (2) 임신의 원인으로는 강압적이나 난잡한 성 관계보다는 지속적인 성 관계 에 의한 우발적 임신이 가장 많았다. (3) 출산하게 된 원인은 임신중절시기를 놓쳐서가 가장 많았다. (4) 10대 임신모의 정신심리학적 문제로는 지능저하나 성폭행피해 보다는 성 지식의 부재나 비행소녀가 많았다. (5) 10대 임신모에 대한 상담 역할은 대부분 산부인과 의사 본인이 담당하였고 정신과전문의나 전문 상담인력과 연계하는 일은 비교적 드물었다. 대부분 정신과 자문의뢰 필요성은 느끼나 ‘보호자나 환자의 거부’때문에 현실적으로 어렵다고 하였다. (6) 10대 임신에 관한 가장 절실한 예방대책으로는 피임교육이라고 응답하였다. 결 론：본 연구의 결과를 토대로 추후 10대 임신모를 대상으로 한 체계화된 면담기법을 이용하여, 10대임신의 위험요인을 분명히 하고, 이들의 사회적응에 관련된 정신과적인 접근방안과 나아가 10대 임신의 예방방안에 관한 구체적인 연구가 산과의사와 연계하에 이루어져야 되리라 본다.고 지능 수치가 상대적으로 낮아 학습 및 학교 생활 적응에 어려움이 더 많을 것이므로 적극적인 치료개입이 필요할 것으로 생각되었다.모두 능력의 향상을 보였으나, 간섭이 있는 주의력 검사에서는 산소흡입군만이 유의한 호전을 보였다. 또한 처치 전후의 변화율((치료후값-치료전값)/치료전값 *100)을 계산하여, 산소군과 공기군 간의 통계적 유의성을 평가한 결과, 공기 흡입군에 비해 산소흡입군이 스트룹 검사의 간섭시행, 그리고, 선로잇기검사의 B부분의 수행에서 유의한 차이를 보여, 산소흡입이 전두엽의 수행능력과 관련된 주의력의 호전에 보다 유의한 기여를 할 가능성이 있음을 보여주었다. 2) 기억능력평가：16가지의 기억능력 평가 도구 소척도값 중에서, 산소흡입군은 흡입 전에 비해 11개의 소검사 항목들에서 보다 우수한 수행을 보여 주었고, 공기흡입군은 7개 영역에서 유의한 호전이 있었다. 처치전후의 각 소척도 값의 변화율을 계산하여, 산소군과 공기군 간의 통계적 유의성을 평가한 결과, 단기기억소척도의 점수에서만, 두 군간에 유의한 통계적 차이가 발견되었다. 결 론：주의력과 기억능력에 미치는 산소효과를 검증하기 위해, 대조군비교-이중맹검 임상실험을 실시하여, 반복검사로 인한 효과, 위약효과 등을 배제하였다. 그 결과 양쪽 검사 모두에서 어느 정도의 반복검사 및 위약효과가 확인되었으나, 주의력에서는 전두엽의 실행능력(executive function)과 관련되는 검사들에서 산소흡입이 특이한 효과를 보여준다는 것이 확인되었고, 기억능력에서는 단기기억능력 평가에서 산소흡입군이 대조군보다 유의한 효과를 보여주는 것으로 평가되었다. 이러한 연구결과는 산소흡입이 전두엽과 관련된 수행능력, 작동기억능력 향상에 도움이 될 가능성이 있음을 시사하는 결과라고 생각된다.증 1명(5%)이었다.

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.
